[0027] The following further describes this utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0028] An anti-reverse connection circuit for an elevator energy feedback unit, as Figure 1 shown, includes a proportional operation circuit, a comparison circuit, an isolation circuit, and a drive circuit.

[0029] The input ports of the proportional operation circuit are respectively connected to the positive bus DC+ and the negative bus DC-in of the frequency converter. The input port of the comparison circuit is connected to the output port of the proportional operation circuit. The input port of the isolation circuit is connected to the output port of the comparison circuit. The input port of the drive circuit is connected to the output port of the isolation circuit.

The positive bus DC+ of the frequency converter is connected in series with resistors R2, R4, R6, and R8 and then connected to the positive-phase input port 3 of the operational amplifier chip U1. A digital ground wire is connected between the resistor R8 and the positive-phase input port 3 of the operational amplifier chip U1 through a resistor R9. The output port 1 of the operational amplifier chip U1 is connected to an output signal Vdc. A resistor R10 is connected in parallel between the negative-phase input port 2 and the output port 1 of the operational amplifier chip U1. The filter capacitor C1 and the ground resistor R11 are located at the rear end of the output port 1 of the operational amplifier chip U1. The filter capacitor C1 and the ground resistor R11 are connected in parallel and then connected to the digital ground wire. The operational amplifier chip U1 is powered by +15V and -15V.

[0032] The input ports of the proportional operation circuit are connected to the positive and negative buses DC+ and DC-in of the frequency converter, and after being reduced by a certain proportion through resistors R1 - 10, an output signal Vdc is output.

[0033] The operational amplifier chip U1 is powered by +15V and -15V and can output without distortion. When a negative voltage is input due to reverse connection of the positive and negative buses, it can also ensure that the output signal Vdc is a negative voltage.

[0034] The comparison circuit is as follows Figure 3 shown, and includes resistor R12, resistor R13, resistor R14, and comparator U2.

[0035] Resistors R13 and R14 divide the voltage to generate a reference voltage, which is connected to the negative-phase input port 2 of comparator U2. The output signal Vdc of the proportional operation circuit is connected to the positive-phase input port 3 of comparator U2.

[0037] The isolation circuit is as follows Figure 4 shown, and includes resistor R15, resistor R16, capacitor C2, and optocoupler U3.

[0038] Port 1 of optocoupler U3 is connected to the output signal Vcom of the comparison circuit. Port 2 of optocoupler U3 is grounded. Port 3 of optocoupler U3 is connected to the output signal Driver. Port 4 of optocoupler U3 is connected to VCC24V.

Resistor R15 is connected between the input line of port 1 of optocoupler U3 and +15V.

[0039] Optocoupler U3 plays an isolation role, enabling complete electrical isolation between the input end and the output end, with strong anti-interference ability and improving the stability of the circuit.

[0040] The drive circuit is as follows Figure 5 shown, and includes resistor R17, resistor R18, triode Q1, and relay K1.

[0041] The output signal Driver of the isolation circuit is connected to port 1 of triode Q1 after being in series with resistor R17. Port 2 of triode Q1 is grounded.

[0042] Among them, triode Q1 plays a switching control role, increasing the drive ability of the circuit and providing sufficient current for the coil of relay K1 to attract. A set of normally open main contacts of relay K1 is directly connected to the negative bus DC-in and DC-out. When relay K1 attracts, it ensures that sufficient working current is provided for the subsequent energy feedback unit.

[0043] The signal sampling ports of the proportional operation circuit are connected to the positive and negative bus voltages DC+ and DC-in of the frequency converter. If the wiring sequence is correct, the output Vdc of the proportional operation circuit is a positive voltage. If it is reversely connected, the output Vdc of the proportional operation circuit is a negative voltage.

[0044] If the output Vdc of the proportional operation circuit is a positive voltage, the output Vcom of the comparison circuit is in a high-impedance state. If the output Vdc of the proportional operation circuit is a negative voltage, the output Vcom of the comparison circuit is at a low level.

[0045] If the output Vcom of the comparison circuit is in a high-impedance state, the optocoupler U3 will conduct, and the output Driver of the isolation circuit is at a high level of 24V. If the output Vcom of the comparison circuit is at a low level, the output Driver of the isolation circuit is in a high-impedance state.

[0046] If the output Driver of the isolation circuit is at a high level of 24V, the triode Q1 conducts, the relay K1 is attracted, the negative bus voltage loop conducts, DC-in and DC-out conduct, and the elevator energy feedback unit is powered and operates normally. If the output Driver of the isolation circuit is in a high-impedance state, the negative bus voltage loop will be disconnected, thereby protecting the elevator energy feedback unit device from damage.

[0047] An anti-reverse connection circuit for an elevator energy feedback unit provided by the present utility model has a simple circuit, strong reliability, and high cost performance. It can be directly integrated into the elevator energy feedback unit device, simplifying the on-site installation and use.
