[0002] In the field of medical devices, the purified water needs to be quickly heated to a target temperature to quickly clean the sample needle and the air bubbles in its pipeline. Since the direct current heating of purified water has disadvantages such as low efficiency and long heating time, the alternating current heating method is usually adopted for the purified water used in medical devices; to improve the heating speed of purified water, the method of increasing the heating current is mostly used to achieve it; however, increasing the heating current makes it difficult to control the target temperature of the water temperature, and at the same time, the overcurrent protection mainly uses fuses and circuit breakers, resulting in a long recovery heating time after the overcurrent protection occurs, which also reduces the heating efficiency of the purified water.

The power output end of the DC voltage stabilizing circuit is connected to the power input end of the microcontroller for providing a set DC power supply to the microcontroller.
[0023] Preferably or exemplarily, as Figure 3 shown, the heating unit 2 includes a heat exchanger, which is composed of a housing 2.3 provided with inlets and outlets 2.1 and 2.2, and an electric heating rod 2.4 and a water level gauge 2.5 arranged inside the housing 2.3. The detection signal output end of the water level gauge 2.5 is connected to the data signal input end of the microcontroller, and the liquid level data of the purified water in the housing 2.3 is sent to the microprocessor in real time. The power input end of the electric heating rod 2.4 is connected to the 220V AC power supply through the heating control circuit 1.
[0024] As an embodiment, the temperature acquisition unit includes a temperature sensor 2.6. The temperature sensor 2.6 is arranged in the inner cavity of the heat exchanger housing 2.3, and the detection signal output end of the temperature sensor 2.6 is connected to the data signal input end of the microcontroller.
[0025] Preferably or exemplarily, as Figure 2As shown, the heating control circuit 1 includes a zero-crossing bidirectional thyristor optocoupler isolator U1 (model MOC3063) and a bidirectional thyristor Q1; the signal input terminal (pin 2) of the zero-crossing bidirectional thyristor optocoupler isolator U1 is connected to the microcontroller PWM signal output terminal PWM_0 via a filter circuit composed of a resistor R1 and a capacitor C1, which effectively prevents signal interference and signal oscillation; the power input terminal (pin 1) of the zero-crossing bidirectional thyristor optocoupler isolator U1 is connected to the microcontroller PWM signal output terminal PWM_0 via a current limiting resistor R2 and a light emitting diode D1, which is used to give a heating indication when the microcontroller outputs a PWM signal, and is turned off when the microcontroller has no PWM signal output.
[0026] The first signal output terminal T1 (pin 4) of the zero-crossing bidirectional thyristor optocoupler isolator U1 is connected to the gate g of the bidirectional thyristor Q1, and is connected to the first anode t1 of the bidirectional thyristor Q1 via the resistor R5; the second signal output terminal T2 (pin 6) of the zero-crossing bidirectional thyristor optocoupler isolator U1 is connected to the second anode t2 of the bidirectional thyristor Q1 via the series resistors R3 and R4; the second anode t2 of the bidirectional thyristor Q1 is connected to the live wire terminal of the 220V AC power supply, and the first anode t1 of the bidirectional thyristor Q1 is connected to the neutral wire terminal of the 220V AC power supply via the electric heating rod 2.4 and the fuse F1.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the working process of the heating unit of the utility model is as follows:
[0028] Step 1: Set the target temperature value T of the heating unit through the microcontroller M 、Target temperature upper limit T s 、Target temperature lower limit T x ;
[0029] Step 2: When the heating unit is not heated, the display unit displays the liquid level information; the microcontroller detects whether the temperature acquisition unit is abnormal. If the temperature acquisition unit is abnormal, the abnormal cause is reported and the heating is stopped through the display unit; the specific steps are as follows:
[0030] Step 2.1, when the temperature sensor 2.6 selects a positive temperature coefficient such as a PTC type temperature sensor, the microcontroller compares the temperature measuring resistance value of the temperature value sent by the temperature sensor 2.6 with the resistance value in the resistance graduation table of the temperature sensor 2.6:
[0031] If the temperature sensor 2.6 sends a temperature value with a temperature measuring resistance value greater than the maximum resistance value in the resistance scale, the microcontroller determines that the temperature sensor 2.6 is open circuited; if the temperature sensor 2.6 sends a temperature value with a temperature measuring resistance value less than the resistance value corresponding to 0°C in the resistance scale, and the ambient temperature is greater than 0°C, the microcontroller determines that the temperature sensor 2.6 is short circuited; an ambient temperature greater than 0°C indicates that the temperature of the heated purified water is higher than the freezing point;
[0032] Step 2.2, when the temperature sensor selects a negative temperature coefficient such as an NTC type temperature sensor, the microcontroller compares the measured temperature resistance value of the temperature value sent by the temperature sensor 2.6 with the resistance value in the resistance graduation table of the temperature sensor 2.6: If the measured temperature resistance value of the temperature value sent by the temperature sensor 2.6 is greater than the maximum resistance value in the resistance graduation table and the ambient temperature is greater than 0°C, the microcontroller determines that the temperature sensor 2.6 is open; if the measured temperature resistance value of the temperature value sent by the temperature sensor 2.6 is less than the minimum resistance value in the resistance graduation table, the microcontroller determines that the temperature sensor 2.6 is short-circuited; the ambient temperature being greater than 0°C means that the temperature of the purified water being heated is higher than the freezing point;
[0033] Step 3, when the heating unit is heating, the temperature sensor 2.6 sends the temperature detection value T0 to the microcontroller in real time; when T0 < T x , the microcontroller outputs a PWM signal with a duty cycle of 100% to the heating control circuit 1, and the heating control circuit controls the heating unit to heat at full power;
[0034] Step 4, when T0 ≥ T s , the microcontroller outputs a PWM signal with a duty cycle of 0 to the heating control circuit 1, and the heating control circuit 1 controls the heating unit to stop heating;
[0035] Step 5, when T x < T0 < T s , the microcontroller adjusts the duty cycle of the output PWM signal, that is: when T0 < T M , increase the duty cycle of the output PWM signal; when T M < T0, decrease the duty cycle of the output PWM signal; when T0 = T M , keep the duty cycle of the currently output PWM signal.
[0036] During the heating process of the heating unit, the microcontroller detects whether the temperature acquisition unit is abnormal in real time according to Step 2.1 or Step 2.2. If an abnormality occurs, the microcontroller outputs a PWM signal with a duty cycle of 0 to the heating control circuit 1, and the heating unit stops heating and reports the cause of the abnormality to avoid further fault losses.
