Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of motor control, in particular to a contact point adhesion protection circuit for a contactor of a motor in forward and reverse rotation. Background Art

[0002] The forward and reverse control of the motor actually changes the direction of rotation of the motor. When the motor rotates forward, the output shaft rotates in a certain direction, and when it rotates reversely, it rotates in the opposite direction. The forward and reverse rotation of the motor is widely used in daily use, such as cranes, electric planers for woodworking, bench drills, wire cutters, spin dryers and lathes. Initially, people needed to replace the motor wires to reverse some equipment, but this method was cumbersome in actual use.

[0003] With the birth of contactors, the forward and reverse circuits of motors have also been further developed. At present, the forward and reverse rotation of motors is generally controlled by using two contactors to form a circuit. This method avoids the need to replace the motor wires for the initial reversal, and can control the forward and reverse rotation of the motor more flexibly and conveniently. However, the two contactors cannot be attracted at the same time. If they are attracted at the same time, a short circuit accident of the power supply will occur. In order to prevent such accidents, an interlocking protection circuit is added to the circuit so that the two contactors will not be attracted at the same time, realizing low voltage and long-distance frequent control.

[0004] However, in actual production work, due to frequent overload of the starting motor, the contactor contacts are worn and oxidized, or the contactor is exposed to high temperature, humidity, dust and other harsh working environments for too long, the contactor contacts may become stuck. When the contactor contacts stick, the motor may not be able to stop or reverse start to cause a phase-to-phase short circuit, thereby damaging the motor and even causing a safety accident. Summary of the invention

[0017] Furthermore, the first end of the normally open contact of the first contactor KM1 is electrically connected to the three-phase AC power supply, the second end of the normally open contact of the first contactor KM1 is electrically connected to the first end of the normally open contact of the second contactor KM2 and the first end of the normally open contact of the third contactor KM3, respectively, and the second end of the normally open contact of the second contactor KM2 and the second end of the normally open contact of the third contactor KM3 are electrically connected to the motor M1, respectively.

[0018] Further, the first end of the first normally open contact KA1-1 of the intermediate relay is electrically connected to the three-phase AC power supply, the second end of the first normally open contact KA1-1 of the intermediate relay is electrically connected to the first end of the coil of the first contactor KM1, and the second end of the coil of the first contactor KM1 is electrically connected to the three-phase AC power supply;

[0020] The second end of the first normally closed contact KM1-4 of the first contactor is electrically connected to the first end of the first normally closed contact KM2-4 of the second contactor, the second end of the first normally closed contact KM2-4 of the second contactor is electrically connected to the first end of the first normally closed contact KM3-4 of the third contactor, the second end of the first normally closed contact KM3-4 of the third contactor is electrically connected to the second end of the third normally open contact KA1-3 of the intermediate relay and the first end of the coil of the intermediate relay KA1, respectively, and the second end of the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is electrically connected to the three-phase AC power supply;

[0021] The first end of the second switch SB2 is electrically connected to the three-phase AC power supply, and the second end of the second switch SB2 is electrically connected to the first end of the first normally closed contact KM1-4 of the first contactor, the first end of the third normally open contact KA1-3 of the intermediate relay and the first end of the fourth normally open contact KA1-4 of the intermediate relay, respectively, the second end of the fourth normally open contact KA1-4 of the intermediate relay is electrically connected to the first end of the second normally closed contact KM2-5 of the second contactor, the second end of the second normally closed contact KM2-5 of the second contactor is electrically connected to the first end of the coil of the third contactor KM3, and the second end of the coil of the third contactor KM3 is electrically connected to the three-phase AC power supply.

[0022] In this embodiment, when the first switch SB1 is pressed, the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is energized, the first normally open contact KA1-1 of the intermediate relay, the second normally open contact KA1-2 of the intermediate relay, the third normally open contact KA1-3 of the intermediate relay and the fourth normally open contact KA1-4 of the intermediate relay are closed, the coil of the first contactor KM1 and the coil of the second contactor KM2 are energized, the normally open contact of the first contactor KM1 and the normally open contact of the second contactor KM2 are closed, the first normally closed contact KM1-4 of the first contactor, the first normally closed contact KM2-4 of the second contactor and the second normally closed contact KM2-5 of the second contactor are disconnected, and the motor M1 rotates forward at this time. Because the coil of the third contactor KM3 is connected in series with the second normally closed contact KM2-5 of the second contactor, even if the second switch SB2 is pressed at this time, the coil of the third contactor KM3 will not be energized.

[0023] When the second switch SB2 is pressed, the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 is energized, the first normally open contact KA1-1 of the intermediate relay, the second normally open contact KA1-2 of the intermediate relay, the third normally open contact KA1-3 of the intermediate relay and the fourth normally open contact KA1-4 of the intermediate relay are closed, the coil of the first contactor KM1 and the coil of the third contactor KM3 are energized, the normally open contact of the first contactor KM1 and the normally open contact of the third contactor KM3 are closed, the first normally closed contact KM1-4 of the first contactor, the first normally closed contact KM3-4 of the third contactor and the second normally closed contact KM3-5 of the third contactor are disconnected, and the motor M1 is reversed at this time. Because the coil of the second contactor KM2 is connected in series with the second normally closed contact KM3-5 of the third contactor, even if the first switch SB1 is pressed at this time, the coil of the second contactor KM2 will not be energized, thus realizing the interlocking of the second contactor KM2 and the third contactor KM3.

[0024] Since all the contacts of the contactor are fixed on the armature, the normally closed contact acts together with the normally open contact. When the normally open contacts of one or more of the first contactor KM1, the second contactor KM2 and the third contactor KM3 are stuck, one or more of the corresponding KM1-4, KM2-4, and KM3-4 are disconnected. At this time, no matter whether the first switch SB1 or the second switch SB2 is pressed, the coil of the intermediate relay KA1 cannot be energized. Then, the coils of the three contactors KM1, KM2 and KM3 are not energized, and the entire circuit is in a disconnected state, thereby realizing the contactor contact adhesion protection for the forward and reverse rotation of the motor.

The circuit breaker protects the power supply line and the motor, and can automatically cut off the circuit when a serious overload or short circuit or undervoltage fault occurs.
