[0026] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0027] The motor steering detection device and the single-motor bathroom heater of the utility model embodiments are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] The utility model proposes a motor steering detection device, wherein, Figure 1 As shown, the motor includes a first winding S1, a second winding S2 and a starting capacitor CS, one end of the first winding S1 is connected to one end of the starting capacitor CS and has a first node, one end of the second winding S2 is connected to the other end of the starting capacitor CS and has a second node, the other end of the first winding S1 is connected to the other end of the second winding S2 and has a third node, the third node is connected to the neutral line of the power supply of the motor, and the first node and the second node are both connected to the live line of the power supply of the motor through a switch device. In some examples, the capacitance of the starting capacitor CS is 1 microfarad and the withstand voltage is 250 volts.

[0029] Specifically, the third node in this embodiment is connected to the neutral line of the power supply, and the first node and the second node are connected to the live line of the power supply through their respective switch devices. The power supply in this embodiment can be AC ​​power, wherein the first node can be connected to the live line of the AC power through the first switch K1, and the second node can be connected to the live line of the AC power through the second switch K2. The motor in this embodiment can be a unidirectional asynchronous motor used in a bathroom heater. The unidirectional asynchronous motor can blow warm air into the bathroom when rotating forward, and can exhaust the bathroom air and introduce fresh air when rotating reversely. The starting capacitor CS can improve the current and power factor of the unidirectional asynchronous motor when starting, so as to achieve the normal operation of the unidirectional asynchronous motor. For example, when the first switch K1 is closed, the first winding S1 can be used as a running winding, and the second winding S2 can be used as a starting winding. The starting winding and the starting capacitor CS are connected in series. Since the charging and discharging of the starting capacitor CS will cause the current cycle of the starting winding to lag behind the running winding by a quarter of a cycle, a rotating magnetic field is generated to drive the motor forward; when the second switch K2 is closed, the second winding S2 can be used as a running winding, and the first winding S1 can be used as a starting winding. The starting winding and the starting capacitor CS are connected in series. Since the charging and discharging of the starting capacitor CS will cause the current cycle of the starting winding to lag behind the running winding by a quarter of a cycle, a rotating magnetic field is generated to drive the motor to reverse.

[0030] In this embodiment, the motor steering detection device includes a first detection module 11, a second detection module 12 and a processing module 13, wherein the first detection module 11 is connected to the live wire of the power supply and the first detection module 11 includes a first photocoupler, and the first detection module 11 is used to detect a first signal of the power supply through the first photocoupler; the second detection module 12 is connected to the first node and the second detection module 12 includes a second photocoupler IC2, and the second detection module 12 is used to detect a second signal of the first winding S1 and the starting capacitor CS from the first node through the second photocoupler; the processing module 13 is respectively connected to the first detection module 11 and the second detection module 12, and is used to determine the steering direction of the motor according to the first signal and the second signal.

[0031] Specifically, see Figure 2As shown, the first detection module 11 includes a first optical coupler IC1, and the first detection module 11 is connected to the live wire and the processing module 13 respectively, and the second detection module 12 includes a second optical coupler IC2, and the second detection module 12 is connected to the first node and the processing module 13 respectively. The first detection module 11 can detect the first signal of the power supply, and the second detection module 12 can detect the second signal of the first winding S1 and the starting capacitor CS through the first node, and the second signal can be a voltage signal. Of course, in some examples, the second detection module 12 can also be connected to the second node to detect the second signal of the second winding S2 and the starting capacitor CS through the second node, and the processing module 13 can obtain the first signal through the first detection module 11 and the second signal through the second detection module 12, and then determine the direction of the motor according to the periodic relationship between the first signal and the second signal. It can be understood that in the two conditions of forward rotation and reverse rotation of the motor, the periodic relationship between the first signal and the second signal is different, and there may be three different situations of the same period, period lag and period advance.

[0032] It should be noted that, in some examples, the first detection module 11 can also be connected to the neutral line and the processing module 13 respectively. The first detection module 11 is used for zero-crossing detection. The signal obtained by the zero-crossing detection is the first signal. The first signal can determine the specific opening and closing conditions of the switch according to the periodic relationship between the second signals, and then determine the blowing and exhaust functions of the bathroom. Since the judgment principles of the two situations where the first detection module 11 is connected to the neutral line and the live line are similar, this embodiment is described in detail with the situation where the first detection module 11 is connected to the live line. In order to avoid redundancy, the other situation will not be repeated.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the first detection module 11 also includes a first voltage divider module and a first filtering module, wherein the first voltage divider module includes at least one voltage divider resistor, and the input end of the first optocoupler IC1 is connected to both ends of a voltage divider resistor in the first voltage divider module; the input end of the first filtering module is connected to the output end of the first optocoupler IC1, and the output end of the first filtering module is connected to the processing module 13.

[0034] Specifically, the first voltage-dividing module includes multiple voltage-dividing resistors, the output end of the first optocoupler IC1 includes two terminals, and the two terminals are respectively connected to the two ends of a voltage-dividing resistor in the first voltage-dividing module. The output end of the first optocoupler IC1 also includes two terminals, and the two terminals are respectively connected to the input end of the first filtering module, and the output end of the first filtering module is also connected to the processing module 13.

[0035] More specifically, the first optocoupler IC1 includes a light source emitter and a light source detector. The light source emitter may be a light emitting diode, and both ends of the light source emitter serve as input ends of the first optocoupler IC1. The light source detector may be a photoresistor, and both ends of the light source detector serve as output ends of the first optocoupler IC1.

[0036] In this embodiment, the first voltage-dividing module includes a first voltage-dividing resistor R1, a second voltage-dividing resistor R2, a third voltage-dividing resistor R3 and a fourth voltage-dividing resistor R4 connected in series, and one end of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor R4 is grounded, and both ends of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor R4 are connected to the input end of the first optical coupler IC1; the first filtering module includes a first filtering resistor R11, a second filtering resistor R12 and a first filtering capacitor C1, the first filtering capacitor C1 and the second filtering resistor R12 are connected in parallel to form a first branch, both ends of the first branch are connected to the output end of the first optical coupler IC1, and one end of the first branch serves as the output end of the first filtering module and is connected to a preset power supply through the first filtering resistor R11, and the other end of the first branch is grounded.

[0037] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the two ends of the fourth voltage-dividing resistor R4 are connected to the input end of the first optical coupler IC1. After the live wire is processed by the voltage-dividing module of the first voltage-dividing module, the input end of the first optical coupler IC1 can obtain the same voltage as the fourth voltage-dividing resistor R4, and then the light source emitter works and emits the light source. After the light source detector detects the light source emitted by the light source emitter, it can adjust the resistance so that the output end of the first optical coupler IC1 outputs the corresponding first signal. The filter voltage-dividing circuit composed of the first filter resistor R11, the second filter resistor R12 and the first filter capacitor C1 in the first filter module can ensure the successful output of the first signal. It should be noted that the size of the first signal is also related to the size of the preset power supply. In this embodiment, the voltage size of the preset power supply can be 5 volts.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the second detection module 12 also includes a second voltage divider module and a second filtering module, wherein the second voltage divider module includes at least one voltage divider resistor, and the input end of the second optocoupler IC2 is connected to both ends of a voltage divider resistor in the second voltage divider module; the input end of the second filtering module is connected to the output end of the second optocoupler IC2, and the output end of the second filtering module is connected to the processing module 13.

[0039] Specifically, the second voltage-dividing module includes multiple voltage-dividing resistors, the output end of the second optocoupler IC2 includes two terminals, the two terminals are respectively connected to the two ends of a voltage-dividing resistor in the second voltage-dividing module, the output end of the second optocoupler IC2 also includes two terminals, the two terminals are respectively connected to the input end of the second filtering module, and the output end of the second filtering module is also connected to the processing module 13.

[0040] More specifically, the second optocoupler IC2 also includes a light source emitter and a light source detector. The light source emitter can be a light emitting diode, and the two ends of the light source emitter serve as input ends of the second optocoupler IC2. The light source detector can be a photoresistor, and the two ends of the light source detector serve as output ends of the second optocoupler IC2.

[0041] In this embodiment, the second voltage-dividing module includes a fifth voltage-dividing resistor R5, a sixth voltage-dividing resistor R6, a seventh voltage-dividing resistor R7 and an eighth voltage-dividing resistor R8 connected in series, and one end of the eighth voltage-dividing resistor R8 is grounded, and both ends of the eighth voltage-dividing resistor R8 are connected to the input end of the second optocoupler IC2; the second filtering module includes a third filtering resistor R13, a fourth filtering resistor R14 and a second filtering capacitor C2, the second filtering capacitor C2 and the fourth filtering resistor R14 are connected in parallel to form a second branch, both ends of the second branch are connected to the output end of the second optocoupler IC2, and one end of the second branch serves as the output end of the second filtering module and is connected to a preset power supply through the third filtering resistor R13, and the other end of the second branch is grounded.

[0042] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the two ends of the eighth voltage-dividing resistor R8 are connected to the input end of the second optical coupler IC2. After the first switch K1 or the second switch K2 is closed, the live wire can be processed by the second voltage-dividing module for voltage-dividing. Then the input end of the second optical coupler IC2 can obtain the same voltage as the eighth voltage-dividing resistor R8, and then the light source emitter works and emits a light source. After the light source detector detects the light source emitted by the light source emitter, it can adjust the resistance so that the output end of the second optical coupler IC2 outputs the corresponding second signal. The filter voltage-dividing circuit composed of the third filter resistor R13, the fourth filter resistor R14 and the second filter capacitor C2 in the second filter module can ensure the successful output of the second signal. It should be noted that the size of the second signal is also related to the size of the preset power supply. In this embodiment, the voltage size of the preset power supply can be 5 volts.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, the direction of rotation of the motor is determined based on the first signal and the second signal, including: when the period of the first signal is the same as the period of the second signal corresponding to the first winding S1, or the period of the first signal leads the period of the second signal corresponding to the second winding S2 by a preset time length, it is determined that the motor is in a forward rotation state; when the period of the first signal leads the period of the second signal corresponding to the first winding S1 by a preset time length, or the period of the first signal is the same as the period of the second signal corresponding to the second winding S2, it is determined that the motor is in a reverse state.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first winding S1 corresponds to the winding for controlling the motor to blow air to the bathroom, and the second winding S2 corresponds to the winding for controlling the motor to ventilate the bathroom. Generally, the motor can blow air to the bathroom when it rotates forward, and can ventilate the bathroom when it rotates reversely. If the second signal is a signal corresponding to the first winding S1 detected by the second detection module 12, then when the period of the first signal is the same as the period of the second signal, such as Figure 3 As shown, it means that the first switch K1 is closed and the second switch K2 is turned off, and the two ends of the first winding S1 are connected to the neutral line and the live line respectively. Then, when the second detection module 12 detects the first winding S1 and the second signal obtained by the first detection module 11 detecting the live line is similar, that is, when the period of the first signal and the period of the second signal are the same, it can be determined that the motor is in the forward rotation state; when the period of the first signal leads the period of the second signal by a preset time length, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, curve 1 represents the first signal, and curve 2 represents the second signal, which means that the second switch K2 is closed and the first switch K1 is turned off, and the first winding S1 is connected in series with the starting capacitor CS. Since the charging and discharging of the starting capacitor CS will cause the second signal cycle to lag behind the first signal by a preset time length, it can be determined that the motor is also in a reverse state.

[0045] If the second signal is a signal corresponding to the second detection module 12 detecting the second winding S2, then when the period of the first signal is the same as the period of the second signal, Figure 3 As shown, it means that the current second closed first switch K1 is turned off, and the two ends of the second winding S2 are connected to the neutral line and the live line respectively. Then, the second signal obtained by the second detection module 12 detecting the second winding S2 is similar to the first signal obtained by the first detection module 11 detecting the live line, that is, when the period of the first signal is the same as the period of the second signal, it can be determined that the motor is in the reverse state; when the period of the first signal leads the period of the second signal by a preset time length, such as Figure 4As shown in the figure, curve 1 represents the first signal, and curve 2 represents the second signal, which means that the first switch K1 is closed and the second switch K2 is turned off, and the second winding S2 is connected in series with the starting capacitor CS. Since the charging and discharging of the starting capacitor CS will cause the second signal cycle to lag behind the first signal by a preset time length, it can be determined that the motor is also in the forward rotation state.

[0046] In another specific embodiment, when the first detection module 11 is connected to the neutral line, the second signal is still the signal detected by the second detection module 12 corresponding to the first winding S1. Then, when the period of the first signal differs from the period of the second signal by half a period, Figure 5 As shown, it means that the first switch K1 is closed and the second switch K2 is turned off, and the two ends of the first winding S1 are connected to the neutral line and the live line respectively. Then the second detection module 12 detects the first winding S1 to obtain a second signal that is obtained by detecting the live line, while the first detection module 11 detects the first signal that is obtained by detecting the neutral line. The two signals are opposite, and the periods are exactly half a period apart, that is, when the period of the first signal and the period of the second signal differ by half a period, it can be determined that the motor is in the forward rotation state; when the period of the first signal leads the period of the second signal by a preset time length, as Figure 6 As shown in the figure, curve 1 represents the first signal, and curve 2 represents the second signal, which means that the second switch K2 is closed and the first switch K1 is turned off, and the first winding S1 is connected in series with the starting capacitor CS. Since the charging and discharging of the starting capacitor CS will cause the second signal cycle to lag behind the first signal by a preset time length, it can be determined that the motor is also in a reverse state.

[0047] If the second signal is a signal corresponding to the second detection module 12 detecting the second winding S2, then when the period of the first signal differs from the period of the second signal by half a period, Figure 5 As shown, it means that the current second closed first switch K1 is turned off, and the two ends of the second winding S2 are connected to the neutral line and the live line respectively. Then the second detection module 12 detects the second winding S2 to obtain a second signal that is obtained by detecting the live line, and the first detection module 11 detects the first signal obtained by detecting the neutral line. The two signals are opposite, and the periods differ by half a period, that is, the period of the first signal differs from the period of the second signal by half a period. Then it can be determined that the motor is in a reverse state; when the period of the first signal leads the period of the second signal by a preset period, such as Figure 6 As shown in the figure, curve 1 represents the first signal, and curve 2 represents the second signal, which means that the first switch K1 is closed and the second switch K2 is turned off, and the second winding S2 is connected in series with the starting capacitor CS. Since the charging and discharging of the starting capacitor CS will cause the second signal cycle to lag behind the first signal by a preset time length, it can be determined that the motor is also in the forward rotation state.

[0048] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the preset duration may be determined according to experimental data, and the processing module 13 in this embodiment may be a single chip microcomputer.

[0049] In summary, the motor rotation detection device of the present invention can accurately detect the forward and reverse rotation state of the motor at a low cost, thereby improving user experience.
