Attached Figure Description

[0015] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, the accompanying drawings used in the description of the embodiments will be briefly introduced below.

[0016] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention. Figure One ; Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention. Figure Two . Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the technical problems solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, an energy storage and charging / discharging control circuit includes: The input terminal is used to receive mains power. The input terminal is connected to the AC / DC converter. The input terminal is grounded through resistors R1, R2 and R3. The switching transistor Q1 has its control terminal connected to the resistor R2, and one end of its conducting terminal is grounded, while the other end is connected to the voltage VCC through the resistor R4. The switching unit U1 has one control terminal connected to the resistor R4 and the other terminal grounded. One conduction terminal is connected to the AC / DC converter through the electrolytic capacitor EC1, and the other conduction terminal is grounded. A diode D3 is connected between the conduction terminal and the other terminal of the switching unit U1.

[0019] After the power supply is powered on, the AC mains power charges the electrolytic capacitor EC1 through the rectifier bridge BD1 and diode D3. Due to the voltage division of R1, R2 and R3 (where C2 provides filtering and ZD1 provides voltage regulation, which can be selected to be used according to the actual debugging results), the base of transistor Q1 is turned on, the SA point voltage of solid-state relay U1 is pulled to ground, and the internal switching transistor of U1 connected in parallel across D3 is turned off. After EC1 is fully charged, it stores energy and does not participate in the power supply operation. When the power is turned off, the AC power supply is disconnected. At this time, the base of Q1 is grounded through resistor R3, Q1 is turned off, and VCC supplies power to the internal LED of U1 through resistor R4. The internal switch of U1 connected in parallel across D3 is turned on, and EC1 is connected to the power supply circuit to provide energy for the power supply to continue to work. In this way, when the mains power is connected, the electrolytic capacitor EC1 is charged. At this time, the base of the transistor Q1 is energized, causing the transistor Q1 to conduct. Point A is grounded, which causes the relay U1 to disconnect. Only after the mains power is disconnected can the voltage VCC be supplied to the relay U1 through the resistor R4, so that the electrolytic capacitor EC1 is grounded and forms a circuit, continuously supplying power to the circuit until the electrolytic capacitor EC1 is depleted.

[0020] refer to Figure 2 This is Example 2, which adds a boost converter to Example 1.

[0021] In the above embodiment, the resistor R3 is connected in parallel with the capacitor C2 to provide filtering.

[0022] In the above embodiment, the resistor R3 is also connected in parallel with a Zener diode ZD1 to provide voltage regulation.

[0023] In the above embodiment, the two ends of the input terminal are respectively provided with diode D1 and diode D2. The output terminals of diode D1 and diode D2 are connected together and then connected to resistor R1. Alternatively, a rectifier bridge can be used instead.

[0024] In the above embodiment, the input terminal is connected to the AC / DC converter through the rectifier bridge BD1.

[0025] In the above embodiment, the output terminal of the rectifier bridge BD1 outputs a voltage, which is grounded through capacitor C1. This voltage can replace voltage VCC for power supply.

[0026] In the above embodiments, the switching transistor Q1 is a bipolar transistor or a MOSFET.

[0027] In the above embodiments, the switching unit U1 is a relay, optocoupler, or photoelectric control switch.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this application. Any other embodiments whose principles and basic structures are the same as or similar to those of this application are within the protection scope of this application.
