[0031] The technical solution of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present utility model, not all of the embodiments.

[0032] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 4 The air-cooled SVG according to the embodiment of the present application is described.

[0033] The air-cooled SVG of the utility model, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes a container 100 and a power valve tower 110, a reactor 120, an air cooling device 130, a soft start module and a control system 160 arranged in the container 100;

[0034] The power valve tower 110 includes a plurality of double H-bridge series power modules 111, which are formed by integrating two single H-bridge power modules. The power valve tower 110 is arranged near one side of the container 100. A vent 140 is arranged at the bottom of the container 100.

[0035] The reactor 120 is located on the same side of the container 100 as the power valve tower 110 and is arranged behind the power valve tower 110;

[0036] The air cooling device 130 is fixed on the container 100 and is located on the same side of the container 100 as the power valve tower 110 and is arranged behind the reactor 120;

[0037] The soft start module is located at a side of the container 100 away from the power valve tower 110 and is electrically connected to the power valve tower 110;

[0038] The control system 160 is located at the same side of the container 100 as the soft start module and is arranged in front of the soft start module, and is electrically connected to the power valve tower 110, the air cooling device 130, and the soft start module respectively.

[0039] In the embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of double H-bridge series power modules 111 are arranged in the power valve tower 110. Compared with the method of setting the power valve tower 110 with a single H-bridge power module, the integration is improved and the footprint of the power module is greatly reduced. In addition, the air-cooled SVG of the embodiment of the utility model integrates the power valve tower 110, the inductor 120, the air-cooling device 130, the soft start module and the control system 160 in the container 100, with high integration, compact structure, reasonable layout, small footprint, and almost no installation is required at the customer's site. The installation process and maintenance are simple and quick. Compared with the traditional SVG, not only the footprint is reduced, but also the cost is greatly advantageous.

[0040] In some embodiments, Figure 2As shown, the vent 140 is located in front of the power valve tower 110. The vent 140 is arranged at the bottom of the container 100 and is located in front of the power valve tower 110, while the air cooling device 130 is arranged on the wall of the container 100 behind the power valve tower 110 and is located at the upper part of the container 100. Such a position setting can make the air flow through the entire power valve tower 110 better to achieve a better air cooling effect.

[0041] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, when the air cooling device 130 starts to work, when the air cooling device 130 is an exhaust device, the air duct path during operation is that the external low-temperature wind passes through the vent 140 at the lower front of the power valve tower 110 and enters the container 100. After the cold air enters the power valve tower 110, it flows from bottom to top, and can take away the heat generated during the operation of the multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110. After the air flows out of the power module, it is discharged outside the container 100 by the air cooling device 130.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the air-cooled SVG further includes a vent filter assembly, which is disposed at the vent 140 and is used to filter the air flowing through the vent 140. The vent filter assembly can filter dust, gravel and other impurities in the air flowing through the vents, filter and clean the gas flowing through the container 100, thereby helping to keep the inside of the air-cooled SVG device clean and reduce the wear of dust, gravel and other impurities on internal components. The vent filter assembly can use filter cotton, which needs to be cleaned in time, at least once a week, to ensure the filtering effect.

[0043] In some embodiments, Figure 1As shown, the soft start module includes an incoming line spacer 151, a contactor 152, and a soft start resistor unit; the incoming line spacer 151 is used to connect or disconnect the three-phase power supply of the access device; the contactor 152 has three groups of connection contacts, the input ends of the three groups of connection contacts are connected to the three phases of the three-phase power supply in a one-to-one correspondence, and the output ends of the three groups of connection contacts are connected to the power valve tower 110 through the three-phase circuit; the soft start resistor unit is connected in parallel with the contactor 152. The soft start module is located on the side of the container 100 away from the power valve tower 110, and the soft start module includes an incoming line spacer 151, a contactor 152, and a soft start resistor unit. Among them, the incoming line spacer 151 is located at the top and is used to connect to the three-phase power supply. The spacer is a switch used to isolate the circuit and is used to cut off the path of the circuit so that the electrical equipment is disconnected from the external power supply. When the spacer is disconnected, the circuit is in a disconnected state, and no current flows through, which is safer. When the spacer is closed, the circuit will be turned on and connected to the three-phase power supply. The contactor 152 is located below the incoming line spacer 151, and has three groups of connection contacts. The input ends of the three groups of connection contacts are connected to the three phases A, B, and C of the three-phase power supply in a one-to-one correspondence, and the output ends of the three groups of connection contacts are connected to the power valve tower 110 through the three-phase circuit. The contactor 152 is an automatic control appliance used to connect or disconnect the AC, DC main circuit and control circuit, and has the advantages of zero-voltage protection, large control capacity, reliable operation, and long life. The soft-start resistor unit is connected in parallel with the contactor 152 to limit the large current generated at the moment the circuit is connected, and protect the circuit. The soft-start module can achieve smooth startup of the equipment, reduce current shock, and improve equipment reliability.

[0044] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the soft-start resistor unit includes two soft-start resistors 153, and the two soft-start resistors 153 are respectively connected in parallel with two groups of connection contacts. One soft-start resistor 153 is connected between the input end and the output end of one connection contact of the contactor 152, and the input ends of the three groups of connection contacts are connected to the three phases A, B, and C of the three-phase power supply in a one-to-one correspondence. The two soft-start resistors 153 can be installed in the A and B phases or the B and C phases.

[0045] In some embodiments, the power module is a series power module, and two conventional single H-bridge power modules are integrated into a double H-bridge series power module 111 . A plurality of double H-bridge series power modules 111 are disposed in the power valve tower 110 .

[0046] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, the multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110 are arranged in six layers and three columns, and every two layers of the six layers are connected to one phase of the three-phase circuit, wherein each layer is provided with three double H-bridge series power modules 111. The double H-bridge series power module 111 is integrated from two single H-bridge power modules, which reduces the floor space and has high integration. The multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110 are arranged in six layers and three columns, and every two layers are connected to one phase of the three-phase circuit A, B, and C, and one phase has six double H-bridge series power modules 111. In some cases, the number of double H-bridge series power modules 111 in each phase can be changed to five or four according to usage requirements.

[0047] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110 are arranged in six layers and three columns, each of the three columns is connected to one phase of the three-phase circuit, and each column is provided with six double H-bridge series power modules 111. The double H-bridge series power module 111 is integrated from two single H-bridge power modules, which reduces the floor space and has high integration. The multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110 are arranged in six layers and three columns, each column is connected to one phase of the three-phase circuit A, B, and C, and one phase has six double H-bridge series power modules 111. In some cases, the number of double H-bridge series power modules 111 in each phase can be changed to five or four according to usage requirements.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the air-cooled SVG further includes a lightning arrester 170 connected between the soft start module and the container 100, and the lightning arrester 170 is disposed in the container 100. The lightning arrester 170 is disposed in the air-cooled SVG to provide lightning protection for the entire device, prevent dangerous accidents from occurring, and better ensure the safe operation of the device.

[0049] In some embodiments, the air cooling device 130 uses a volute-free centrifugal fan. The air duct path during the operation of the device is that the low-temperature external wind passes through the vent 140 at the lower front of the power valve tower 110 and enters the container 100. After the cold air enters the power valve tower 110, it flows from bottom to top, and can take away the heat generated by the operation of the multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110. After the air flows out of the power module, it is excluded from the outside of the container 100 by the volute-free centrifugal fan. Centrifugal fans are widely used in equipment in the industrial and construction fields and have many advantages. Centrifugal fans can provide efficient ventilation and air circulation, and can accelerate air by rotating the centrifugal wheel at high speed, thereby providing efficient ventilation and air circulation. Secondly, centrifugal fans can save energy and reduce costs, and are usually more energy-efficient than other types of fans because they can provide more efficient air flow. In addition, centrifugal fans can provide silent operation and reduce noise. The noise generated by the centrifugal wheel when rotating can be absorbed by the casing, which is usually quieter than other types of fans.

The double H-bridge series power module 111 is integrated from two single H-bridge power modules.

[0053] The external A, B, and C three-phase cables are first connected to the incoming line spacer 151, and then connected to the parallel contactor 152 and the soft start resistor 153 through the copper busbar, and then connected to the A, B, and C three-phases composed of multiple double H-bridge series power modules 111 in the power valve tower 110, and finally enter the reactor 120. The lightning arrester 170 is connected between the soft start module and the container 100. Two soft start resistors 153 are installed on the B and C phases or the A and B phases.
