It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model. Figure 1-4 The variable frequency control system of the additional electric compressor of the GHP heat pump unit is further explained.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] The variable frequency control system for the GHP heat pump unit with an additional electric compressor includes a GHP gas heat pump, a main controller, a data level converter, a frequency converter and an electric compressor. The GHP gas heat pump is connected to the data level converter circuit, the data level converter is connected to the main controller circuit, the main controller is connected to the frequency converter circuit, and the frequency converter is connected to the electric compressor circuit.

[0033] The GHP heat pump unit is equipped with an electric compressor variable frequency control system. The main controller adopts a programmable controller PLC, which communicates with the GHP through a data level converter. As a logic control unit of the variable frequency control system, it automatically calculates and controls the frequency and start and stop of the electric compressor.

[0034] The GHP heat pump unit is equipped with a variable frequency control system for an electric compressor, and the GHP is connected to the main controller in the form of an RS-232 bus through a data level converter.

[0035] The GHP heat pump unit is equipped with a variable frequency control system for the electric compressor. The GHP transmits the required electric compressor operating frequency control information to the main controller. The main controller automatically calculates the appropriate output frequency based on the received data and transmits the output frequency signal to the inverter.

[0036] The frequency conversion control system of the GHP heat pump unit with an additional electric compressor has a main controller connected to the inverter in the form of RS-485 bus, and directly obtains the internal data of the inverter, such as the current output frequency, output current, and operation status of the inverter.

[0037] The GHP heat pump unit is equipped with a variable frequency control system for an electric compressor. The frequency converter receives a control command signal and drives the electric compressor to operate, thereby realizing a variable frequency control function.

[0038] The variable frequency control system of the GHP heat pump unit equipped with an electric compressor can achieve efficient, stable and energy-saving operation of the GHP by intelligently adjusting the operating frequency of the electric compressor, thereby improving the overall performance and meeting the social needs of energy conservation and environmental protection.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] This embodiment is a new embodiment or a supplement to Embodiment 1.

[0041] like Figure 1As shown, the frequency conversion control system of the GHP heat pump unit with an additional electric compressor of the utility model includes a GHP, a data level converter, a main controller, a frequency converter and an electric compressor. The components are connected through circuits to form a complete control system. The main controller adopts a programmable controller PLC, and communicates data with the GHP through a data level converter. The GHP transmits the required electric compressor operation frequency control information to the main controller, and the main controller outputs a suitable frequency signal to the frequency converter after logical calculation. The frequency converter receives the signal and converts it, drives the electric compressor to operate, and realizes the optimized frequency conversion control function.

[0042] 1. In actual application, GHP transmits the required electric compressor operating frequency control information to the main controller through the data level converter according to its own operating conditions. The main controller uses a programmable controller PLC, which calculates the appropriate output frequency through the built-in logic algorithm based on the received data. The main controller transmits the calculated output frequency signal to the inverter. After receiving the frequency signal from the main controller, the inverter drives the operating frequency of the electric compressor to realize the frequency conversion control function.

[0043] 2. Figure 2 As shown, the main controller performs logical judgment on the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by the GHP. According to different control information, the variable frequency control system of the electric compressor is divided into three modes: start mode, variable frequency control mode and stop mode.

[0044] 1) Stop mode: When the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by GHP is 0 or the inverter is abnormal, the main controller actively stops the inverter and the inverter output frequency is also 0.

[0045] 2) Startup mode: When the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by GHP is not 0, the main controller controls the inverter to start and sends the control frequency (15HZ) to the inverter. When the inverter output frequency slowly increases to the control frequency (15HZ), the startup process ends.

[0046] 3) Frequency conversion control mode: When the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by GHP is not 0 and the startup process has been completed, the frequency conversion control mode is entered.

[0047] A.GHP varies the electric compressor operating frequency control information from GHP between 15HZ and 100HZ according to different operating conditions.

[0048] B. The main controller detects the inverter output current in real time, and automatically adjusts the inverter output frequency according to the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by GHP, so that the inverter output current is within a safe range, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the electric compressor.

[0049] C. When the inverter output frequency needs to be increased, the main controller increases the inverter output frequency at a rate of 1HZ per second until the inverter output frequency is consistent with the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by GHP, and the output frequency no longer increases.

[0050] D. When the inverter output frequency needs to be reduced, the main controller reduces the inverter output frequency at a rate of 2HZ per second until the inverter output frequency is consistent with the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by GHP, and the output frequency no longer decreases.

[0051] E. When the system is in a special operating condition, the operating current of the electric compressor will increase. When the operating current of the electric compressor reaches the limit value, even if the electric compressor operating frequency control information sent by the GHP requires an increase in frequency, the main controller will control the output frequency of the inverter to stop increasing until the compressor operating current is less than the limit value, and then the inverter output frequency will be increased.

[0052] F. When the operating current of the electric compressor exceeds the limit value and reaches the safety value, the main controller actively controls the inverter to reduce the output frequency until the operating current of the electric compressor is less than the safety value, and the inverter output frequency is no longer reduced.

[0053] G. Under the variable frequency control mode, the operating current of the electric compressor is stabilized below the safe value under the control of the main controller.

[0054] Through the compressor frequency conversion control system of the utility model, the operating frequency of the electric compressor can be intelligently adjusted according to the different operating conditions of the GHP gas heat pump to ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment. At the same time, since the operating frequency of the electric compressor can be accurately controlled, the operating energy consumption of the GHP can be effectively reduced.

[0055] In summary, the variable frequency control system of the GHP heat pump unit with an additional electric compressor of the utility model has the advantages of simple structure, easy implementation, high efficiency and energy saving, is suitable for the application scenarios of GHP gas heat pumps, and has broad market prospects and application value.

[0056] Example 3

[0057] This embodiment provides a data level converter required in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it includes a power supply unit, a data analysis circuit, and a level conversion circuit. The data analysis circuit is connected to the level conversion circuit; the power supply unit is respectively connected to the data analysis circuit and the level conversion circuit; and the RS-232 level output module is connected to the level conversion circuit.

[0058] The data level converter of the GHP parses the OPT interface data in the GHP into TTL level, and then converts the TTL level into the RS-232 bus interface.

[0059] The GHP data level converter, the OPT interface in the GHP is a half-duplex communication with two signal lines, and data transmission can only be carried out alternately between two directions, that is, at the same time, data can only be transmitted in one direction. The data level is 0 to 13V, the level signal is special and requires the GHP main control substrate to cooperate with the control to distinguish between logic "1" and logic "0", and common devices are difficult to be compatible with this interface.

[0060] The data level converter of the GHP and the RS-232 bus interface can realize full-duplex communication. In general applications, a simple full-duplex communication process can be realized by using three signal lines (receiving line, transmitting line and signal line).

[0061] 1. The power supply unit is the power supply for the data analysis circuit and the level conversion circuit. The power input of the data level converter is 24V DC. Through the MC34063AD voltage conversion chip and peripheral circuits, the 24V DC is converted into 5V DC to drive the data analysis circuit and the level conversion circuit.

[0062] 2. The level conversion circuit converts the parsed TTL level into a 3-wire RS-232 bus interface through the MAX232 chip and peripheral circuits.

[0063] 1) In TTL level, the voltage of 2V to 5V is called high level, and 0V to 0.8V is called low level.

[0064] A high level is equivalent to a logic "1" and a low level is equivalent to a logic "0".

[0065] 2) The RS-232 bus interface high level voltage range is +3 to +15V, and the low level voltage range is -3 to -15V.

[0066] A high level is equivalent to a logic "1" and a low level is equivalent to a logic "0".

[0067] 3) After the RXD of the RS-232 bus interface receives the logic "1" or "0", it is converted into TTL level and sent to the data analysis circuit logic "1" or "0" through the TXD pin.

[0068] 4) After the data analysis circuit receives the logic "1" or "0", it performs level conversion through the level conversion circuit, and the TXD pin of the RS-23 bus sends the logic "1" or "0".

[0069] 3. The data analysis circuit converts the difficult-to-recognize OPT data logic level into the easier-to-recognize TTL logic level.

[0070] 1) The OPT port of the GHP control board sends data logic "1" or "0", and the analysis circuit interprets the received data as TTL level logic "1" or "0"

[0071] 2) When the OPT port of the GHP control board receives data, the analysis circuit converts the logic "1" or "0" into the logic "1" or "0" that the OPT port can recognize.

[0072] 3) The OPT port data analysis of the GHP control substrate requires the cooperation between the GHP substrate and the data level converter. The data level converter is a dedicated level analysis of the GHP.

[0073] 4) When the OPT port of the GHP control substrate sends data, the internal receiving data pin is forced to a high level. At this time, the OPT port and the data analysis circuit form a receiving and analyzing data loop. At this time, the data analysis loop only receives data.

[0074] 5) When the OPT port of the GHP control substrate receives data, the internal data transmission pin is forced to a high level. At this time, the OPT port and the data analysis circuit form a data transmission and analysis loop. At this time, the data analysis loop only sends data.

[0075] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent substitutions or changes according to the technical scheme and utility model concept of the utility model within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model. Without departing from the concept of the utility model, simple deductions and substitutions can also be made, which should be covered by the protection scope of the utility model.
