[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electrical fire-proof current-limiting protectors, and in particular to a single-phase electrical fire-proof current-limiting protector, which is mainly used for protecting against electrical fires caused by instantaneous electric sparks. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, high-power equipment such as new energy charging piles are increasing, power consumption is increasing, and electrical fires are becoming more frequent, causing huge losses to people and property. Short circuit is one of the main factors for electrical fires. When a short circuit occurs, the short circuit fault point has very large energy at the moment of short circuit, which can instantly generate a high temperature. The contact material also melts due to the high temperature, and the sparks generated instantly can easily ignite the surrounding combustibles.
[0003] Traditional circuit breakers can cut off the circuit after a short circuit occurs to avoid the harm of a continuous short circuit. Due to the way the excitation coil is tripped, the short circuit action time is usually tens of milliseconds. In other words, traditional circuit breakers need to drive the excitation coil to trip at a larger short circuit current, and cannot effectively suppress the spark during a short circuit. Traditional current limiting protectors are large in size and have a long reaction time. They cannot effectively cut off the circuit in time to prevent disasters. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a current limiting protector that can be driven to act quickly when an instantaneous electric spark occurs, and the short-circuit action time is realized in the microsecond level. The structure of the current limiter is improved to realize a current limiting protector with a smaller volume, making electrical fire detection safer and more reliable.
[0005] The fireproof current limiting protector of the utility model adopts advanced detection technology and high-end semiconductor technology. Through intelligent algorithms, it can predict the occurrence of short circuits in advance and quickly cut off the circuit, which can quickly suppress the generation of sparks. In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a single-phase electrical fire-proof current-limiting protector, which is mainly composed of a MOS circuit module, an AC-DC conversion circuit module, a voltage stabilizing circuit module, a current acquisition circuit module, a voltage acquisition circuit module, a control module, and an alarm module; it is characterized in that after the 230V AC mains is connected to the AC-DC conversion circuit module, a DC power is obtained, and the DC power is divided into two paths; one path passes through the voltage stabilizing circuit module to obtain a stable voltage of 3.3V, and then the stable voltage is input to the control circuit module; the other path provides an isolated power supply to the MOS drive circuit through an isolated DC isolation power supply; the power supply voltage is measured by resistor voltage division, and the voltage obtained by voltage division is collected by an AD module inside the control module; the signal output by the current transformer is sampled by the current sampling circuit module and the voltage sampling circuit module, and then input into the AD module inside the control module for collection and calculation; the current transformer is arranged on the neutral line of the AC mains to collect the current signal; the control module includes a microprocessor.
[0006] Preferably, the microprocessor is a microprocessor with a Cortex M4 core with a main frequency of up to 200M.
[0007] Preferably, an optical coupling isolation is used to drive the MOS driving circuit to work, and a protection circuit is added to the MOS driving circuit.
[0008] Preferably, a state detection circuit is also included, which detects the switch state of the MOS tube and whether a fault occurs through an isolation optical coupler.
[0009] Preferably, the warning module includes a liquid crystal display, a button, an LED indicator light and a buzzer; the liquid crystal display is used to display voltage, current and power.
[0010] Preferably, the sampling rate of the current acquisition circuit is 200 kHz, and the sampling time is 5 us.
[0011] Preferably, a fixed time moving window is used to record the most recent 10 current sampling points in real time.

[0014] Step 3, collecting the current signal of the circuit through a circuit transformer, processing the current signal through the current collection circuit module and the voltage collection circuit module, and then inputting the current signal into the control module for processing and calculation;
[0015] Step 4, determine whether the current sampled data has a mutation. If there is no mutation, execute step 3; if there is a mutation, execute step 5;
[0016] Step 5, eliminating electromagnetic interference through a digital filtering processing circuit; calculating whether the changes of the 10 current sampling points meet the instantaneous rise value during a short circuit through a control module, and judging whether the rise value exceeds a threshold; if it exceeds, judging it as a short circuit, and executing step 6; if it does not exceed, returning to executing step 3;
[0017] Step 6, execute the current limiting protection action, and sound an alarm through the warning circuit module, and generate an audible and visual alarm. Preferably, in order to avoid serious heating of the MOS due to overload, the protector detects the current size in real time. If there is a current overload, the protector will disconnect the power supply circuit within a set time, sound an audible and visual alarm, and report to the management platform.
[0018] Preferably, in order to avoid serious heating of MOS due to overload, the protector detects the current size in real time. If there is a current overload, the protector will disconnect the power supply circuit within a set time, sound and light alarm, and report to the management platform.

The fixed time moving window is used to record the 10 most recent current sampling points in real time. In terms of algorithm, first determine whether the current sampling point has a mutation. If there is a mutation, further eliminate electromagnetic interference through digital filtering, wherein the digital filtering includes 10-point moving average filtering, fluctuation filtering, etc. By detecting and calculating whether the changes of the 10 current sampling points meet the instantaneous rise during the short circuit and exceed the limit, it is judged as a short circuit, an audible and visual alarm is generated, and it is reported to the management platform. In addition, in order to avoid serious heating of MOS due to overload, the protector detects the current size in real time. If there is a current overload, the protector will disconnect the power supply circuit within the set time, and an audible and visual alarm will be issued, and it will be reported to the management platform to avoid heating of MOS and accelerate insulation aging due to overload heating of the line.
