Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an insulation detection circuit, and particularly to a passive insulation detection device and method for a power system of a new energy mine vehicle. Background Art

[0002] In the power systems of pure electric vehicles or hybrid electric vehicles, all high-voltage (HV) devices are isolated to the protective grounding (PE) terminal through a high-resistance path. For this type of insulation form, an insulation detection device is usually set up to monitor the insulation resistance and initiate shutdown in the case of insufficient insulation resistance to avoid personal injury caused by contact with the system. Existing insulation detection devices for the power systems of electric vehicles or hybrid electric vehicles require a voltage level of 200V - 400V and a leakage current threshold of ≤30mA. However, existing insulation detection devices cannot be applied to the power system of mine vehicles. On the one hand, the power system of mine vehicles uses an electrical system with a higher voltage, and the voltage level reaches 650V - 1200V. Higher voltages require stricter insulation requirements and lower allowable values of leakage current, with a leakage current threshold of ≤10mA. On the other hand, the working environment of mine vehicles is much harsher than that of ordinary vehicles. There may be high humidity, high dust, flammable and explosive gases, etc. in the mine, and these environmental factors require higher insulation detection requirements. Moreover, the minimum measurable insulation resistance of the insulation measurement scheme for ordinary vehicles is relatively large and cannot be applied to harsh application environments such as mine vehicles. The above requirements cannot be achieved by simply replacing modules of existing insulation detection devices. Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose an insulation detection device suitable for the power system of mine vehicles. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0023] The passive insulation detection device for the power system of a new energy mine vehicle described in the present invention includes an insulation monitoring circuit, a power supply circuit and a CAN communication circuit.

[0024] The insulation monitoring circuit is as follows Figure 1 shown, including a first isolation resistor, a first solid-state relay, a second solid-state relay, and a second isolation resistor connected in sequence between the positive and negative busbars. Among them, the isolation resistor R st selects 9 series-connected 80.6K resistors, 1206 package, rated withstand voltage 200V, accuracy 0.05%. The value and accuracy of the measurement resistor are strongly correlated with the minimum value of the measured resistor. The judgment basis is that the resistor accuracy cannot be worse than 5% of the ratio of the measured resistor to the isolation resistor value. The solid-state relay is controlled by a microcontroller unit (MCU). The positive and negative busbar measurement switching switch selects the solid-state relay S117S. There is a 1700V turn-off voltage between the secondary switch terminals of this device. The isolation gate withstand voltage between the control side and the switch side is 3750V RMS . It meets the condition that the bus working voltage is 1200V.

[0025] A first sampling resistor is connected between the two solid-state relays and grounded. The first sampling resistor is connected to an operational amplifier and connected to the MCU through an analog-to-digital converter ADC and an enhanced digital isolator for measuring the voltage value at both ends of the first sampling resistor. The grounded end of the first sampling resistor is connected to the grounded end of the operational amplifier through a 1.25V voltage source. The other end of the first sampling resistor is connected to the positive pole of the operational amplifier, and the negative pole of the operational amplifier is connected to the output of the operational amplifier. The sampling resistor R inAMC selects 750Ω, 0805 package, accuracy 0.01%. The operational amplifier selects TSZ122IYDT, with a maximum input offset voltage of 8uV and an input offset current of 600pA. The ADC chip selects MAX11205AEUB+, with a maximum measurement error of 45PPM and a sampling rate not greater than 10 times per second. This isolator uses a common digital isolator for isolated transmission of communication signals. The key requirement is that its isolated power supply meets the requirements of the isolation voltage for the high and low voltage sides. The test analog quantity is communicated to the SPI through the ADC chip and then enters the MCU. That is, in the overall design, CAN communication is responsible for external communication, and SPI is responsible for internal communication. The method of using a high-precision ordinary operational amplifier plus an isolation chip further improves the test accuracy.

[0026] A third isolation resistor and a second sampling resistor are also connected in series between the positive and negative voltages. The second sampling resistor is connected to an operational amplifier and connected to the MCU through an analog-to-digital converter ADC and an enhanced digital isolator for measuring the voltage of the second sampling resistor.

[0027] The reference voltage of the operational amplifier selects ISL21090BFB825Z-TK, with a rated output voltage of 2.5V. The voltage accuracy is 0.02%.

[0028] This insulation monitoring circuit can coexist with other insulation monitors to achieve separate measurement of the insulation resistances of the positive and negative busbars. Moreover, the circuit structure itself is a passive monitoring method, and measurements can only be made after the busbar voltage is established.

[0029] The power supply circuit is as Figure 2 shown. The auxiliary power supply uses a flyback power supply, with an input of 9 to 36V and three isolated outputs of 5V voltage. The isolation voltage between ISOGNG2 and the primary side and the other two outputs is not less than 3500Vrms for 1 minute. The power supply part in this solution uses a flyback power supply, which has a stronger load-carrying capacity, higher efficiency, and is more suitable for occasions with high-power output.

[0030] The CAN communication circuit is as Figure 3 shown. The test data is sent to the MCU through an automotive signal-improved CAN FD transceiver with a standby function and a digital isolator, and then communicates with other devices outside the board through the MCU. Adding both internal and external communication makes it more suitable for actual engineering occasions.

[0031] The passive insulation detection device of the new energy mine vehicle power system described in the present invention can perform insulation detection when the busbar operating voltage ranges from 650V to 1200V, the minimum measured resistance is not greater than 20K, and there are already other insulation detectors present, meeting the requirement of leakage current threshold ≤ 10mA.

[0032] The detection method of the passive insulation detection device of the new energy mine vehicle power system described in the present invention is as follows: Connect the resistor divider to determine the isolation resistance from the positive DC+ of the busbar voltage or the negative DC– of the busbar voltage to the protective ground PE. It has an enhanced isolated analog front end (AFE) with a flyback power supply on the hot side, suitable for the MCU located on the cold side.

[0033] The calculation formula for the isolation resistance between the DC line and PE is as follows:

[0034]

[0035] In the formula, R isoP , R isoN respectively represent the insulation resistances of the positive and negative busbars, R inAMC represents the sampling resistor, R st represents the isolation resistor, V DC is the DC busbar voltage, V N is the voltage between the negative of the measured busbar voltage and the case ground, V P is the voltage between the positive of the measured busbar voltage and the case ground. Among them V inN represents the AMC input voltage (negative side switch), V inP represents the AMC input voltage (positive side switch), that is, the voltage across the sampling resistor when the positive side switch is closed.
