[0001] The utility model relates to an inductance detection device, and more specifically, to an inductance detection device for an inverter busbar. Background Art

[0002] IGBT modules are widely used in fields such as new energy, rail transit, and smart grid. IGBT modules can not only invert the direct current on the busbar into alternating current, but also rectify the alternating current and input it to the busbar. The IGBT module in the inverter inverts the alternating current on the busbar. The inductance value of the inverter unit busbar affects whether the core IGBT module of the entire system can operate normally and reliably. Therefore, in order to ensure the normal operation of the IGBT module, it is necessary to detect the inductance value of the busbar.

[0003] Currently, for the detection device of the busbar inductance value, most use traditional analog or digital ammeters to judge the busbar inductance, which has disadvantages such as low acquisition accuracy, few judgment contents, and false triggering. For this reason, a new type of inductance detection device for an inverter busbar is proposed in this article to conveniently and quickly detect the inductance value of the unit busbar. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The utility model provides an inductance detection device for an inverter busbar in order to overcome the above technical problems.

[0005] The inductance detection device for an inverter busbar of the utility model includes a power supply, a load inductor, a pulse signal transmitting device, a high-voltage signal acquisition device, and a current acquisition device. A support capacitor, an upper-bridge IGBT, and a lower-bridge IGBT are connected between the positive busbar and the negative busbar of the inverter, and the upper-bridge IGBT and the lower-bridge IGBT are connected in series to form an inverter bridge; the power supply is connected to the positive busbar and the negative busbar to provide a DC voltage for the inverter busbar; its characteristics are as follows:

The pulse signal transmitting device provides a pulse signal to the upper-bridge or lower-bridge that is not connected in parallel with the IGBT to control the corresponding IGBT device to turn on and off. The high-voltage signal acquisition device is used to measure the voltage between the emitter and the collector of the upper-bridge or lower-bridge IGBT that is not connected in parallel with the load inductor.

[0017] The present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0018] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a schematic diagram of the principle and a schematic diagram of the electrical connection of the device for detecting the inductance of the inverter busbar of the present utility model are given. It is composed of a support capacitor 3, a power supply 4, a load inductor 5, a pulse signal transmitting device 6, a high-voltage signal acquisition device 7 and a current acquisition device 8. The inverter busbar shown is composed of a positive busbar and a negative busbar. Both ends of the support capacitor 3 are connected to the positive busbar and the negative busbar. The emitter of the upper-bridge IGBT is connected to the collector of the lower-bridge IGBT. The collector of the upper-bridge IGBT is connected to the positive busbar, and the collector of the lower-bridge IGBT is connected to the negative busbar. The upper-bridge IGBT and the lower-bridge IGBT form an inverter bridge, and the connection between the upper-bridge IGBT and the lower-bridge IGBT forms the output end of the inverter bridge.

[0019] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the device for detecting the inductance of the inverter busbar of the present utility model given is the schematic diagram of the principle when the lower-bridge is tested. Both ends of the shown load inductor 5 are connected to the collector and emitter of the upper-bridge IGBT (i.e., the output end of the inverter bridge), that is, the load inductor 5 is connected in parallel with the upper-bridge IGBT. The output end of the power supply 4 is connected to the positive busbar and the negative busbar, and the power supply 4 provides a DC voltage for the inverter busbar. The pulse signal output end of the pulse signal transmitting device 6 is connected to the gate (i.e., the grid) of the lower-bridge IGBT to provide a pulse signal for the conduction and cut-off of the lower-bridge IGBT. One input end of the high-voltage signal acquisition device 7 is connected to the output end of the inverter bridge (i.e., the collector of the lower-bridge IGBT), and the other input end is connected to the negative busbar (i.e., the emitter of the lower-bridge IGBT) to measure the voltage change across the lower-bridge IGBT. The current acquisition device 8 is connected to the negative busbar, and it measures the current flowing through the negative busbar by means of current mutual induction, that is, it measures the current flowing through the lower-bridge IGBT and the load inductor 5.

[0020] For an inverter bridge with a rated current of 300 A, it is necessary to ensure that the measured current reaches 300 A. The magnitude of the current can be changed by altering the pulse duty cycle of the pulse signal transmitting device 6 or by changing the inductance value of the load inductor 5 to meet the detection requirements.

[0021] There is the following relationship between the voltage change across the IGBT device (lower-bridge IGBT) and the busbar inductance:

[0022] △V = Ls × [di(t) / dt] (1)

[0023] Where △V is the voltage change between the collector and emitter of the lower-bridge IGBT, Ls is the busbar inductance of the inverter, and di(t) is the change in current flowing between the collector and emitter of the lower-bridge IGBT over time.

[0024] From formula (1), we can obtain:

[0025] Ls = △V × [dt / di(t)] (2)

[0026] Among them, △V is obtained from the measurement data of the high-voltage signal acquisition device 7, and di(t) is obtained from the measurement data of the current acquisition device 8.

[0027] Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The schematic diagram and electrical connection diagram of the parallel connection of the load inductor 5 with the upper-bridge IGBT are given. The load inductor 5 can also be connected in parallel to the lower-bridge IGBT for detecting the busbar inductance. When the load inductor 5 is connected in parallel with the lower-bridge IGBT, the pulse signal output terminal of the pulse signal transmitting device 6 is connected to the gate of the upper-bridge IGBT, one end of the high-voltage signal acquisition device 7 is connected to the output terminal of the inverter bridge (i.e., the emitter of the upper-bridge IGBT), and the other end is connected to the positive busbar (i.e., the collector of the upper-bridge IGBT), and the test position of the current acquisition device 8 remains unchanged.

[0028] In order to enable the pulse signal transmitting device 6 to send pulse signals for controlling the upper-bridge IGBT and the lower-bridge IGBT, the pulse signal transmitting device can be composed of an upper-bridge signal transmitting device and a lower-bridge signal transmitting device. The output terminals of the upper-bridge signal transmitting device and the lower-bridge signal transmitting device are respectively connected to the gates of the upper-bridge IGBT and the lower-bridge IGBT.

[0029] In order to accurately reflect whether the pulse signal sent by the pulse signal transmitting device 6 is successfully transmitted, a low-voltage signal acquisition device 9 is also provided. Figure 2One end of the low-voltage signal acquisition device is connected to the gate of the lower-bridge IGBT, and the other end is connected to the emitter of the lower-bridge IGBT. When the load inductor 5 is connected in parallel with the lower-bridge IGBT, one end of the low-voltage signal acquisition device is connected to the gate of the upper-bridge IGBT, and the other end is connected to the emitter of the upper-bridge IGBT.

[0030] To achieve perfect reproduction of the acquired signal, and perform waveform display, capture, and recording when necessary. Furthermore, to calculate the busbar inductance in detail through voltage and current signals, a pulse signal capture device 6 can also be set up. The three input channels of the pulse signal capture device 6 are respectively connected to the output terminals of the high-voltage signal acquisition device 7, the current acquisition device 8, and the low-voltage signal acquisition device 9.
