[0032] In an energy storage system, the state of the contactor is an important link to ensure the safe operation of the system. The detection circuit of the contactor can timely detect whether the contactor cuts off the circuit normally. If the contactor fails to cut off in time, it may cause the current to continue to flow through, leading to faults such as system short circuit and overload, and may even damage other electrical equipment.
[0033] Existing contactor detection circuits usually rely on complex hardware structures and high-power consumption designs. For example, an additional power supply is required. The complex detection circuit not only increases the system cost, but also may cause continuous heating and potential safety hazards.
[0034] In this embodiment, a contactor detection circuit is provided. Figure 1 is the structural block diagram of the contactor detection circuit in this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the contactor detection circuit includes: a first voltage-dividing resistor, a second voltage-dividing resistor, a first rectifying circuit, a second rectifying circuit, and an isolation circuit;
[0035] The first detection point of the contactor is connected to the first rectifying circuit through the first voltage-dividing resistor, the second detection point of the contactor is connected to the second rectifying circuit through the second voltage-dividing resistor, and the output current of the contactor is rectified by the first rectifying circuit and the second rectifying circuit and outputs a DC signal to the isolation circuit;
[0036] An isolation circuit, which is connected to the first rectification circuit and the second rectification circuit respectively, is used to isolate the DC signal and output a voltage signal.
[0037] Among them, the contactor detection circuit is connected in parallel across the contactor. One end of the first detection point of the contactor is connected to one contact of the contactor, and the other end is sequentially connected to the first voltage-dividing resistor and the first rectification circuit; one end of the second detection point of the contactor is connected to the other contact of the contactor, and the other end is sequentially connected to the second voltage-dividing resistor and the second rectification circuit.
[0038] The output current of the contactor includes a positive-phase current and a negative-phase current. After being voltage-divided by the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor respectively, and passing through the first rectification circuit and the second rectification circuit, the positive and negative phase currents of the contactor are both converted into positive-voltage DC signals, and the DC signals are output to the isolation circuit. The input ends of the isolation circuit are respectively connected to the output ends of the first rectification circuit and the second rectification circuit. Signal isolation is achieved through the isolation circuit, and the output end of the isolation circuit outputs a voltage signal, which can reflect whether the contactor is normally closed and opened. Among them, the first rectification circuit and the second rectification circuit are used to rectify the positive voltage and negative voltage of the contactor. Specifically, a detection diode, a rectification diode, or other diode circuits with rectification functions can be used; the isolation circuit includes any one of an optocoupler, a capacitive isolator, a magnetic isolator, and a digital isolator, all of which can achieve the function of the isolation circuit and ensure the safe transmission of signals.
[0039] Through the contactor detection circuit implemented by voltage-dividing resistors and diode rectification in this embodiment to convert the positive-phase current and negative-phase current output by the contactor into DC signals, and then output a voltage signal through the isolation circuit, the positive-phase current and negative-phase current of the contactor can be detected. It has the advantages of few components and no need for an additional power supply, simplifies the design of the detection circuit, and solves the problem of complex design of the detection circuit.
[0040] In some of these embodiments, the contactor includes an AC contactor and / or a DC contactor.
[0041] Specifically, the output current of the AC contactor includes a positive-phase current and a negative-phase current, and the output current of the DC contactor includes a positive-phase current. The above contactor detection circuit is applicable to both AC contactors and DC contactors, and the positive and negative phase currents output can be rectified through voltage-dividing resistors and rectification circuits to output positive-voltage DC signals.
[0042] In some of these embodiments, the isolation circuit includes an optocoupler.
[0043] Among them, the optocoupler is based on the photoelectric effect and realizes the isolation and conversion of electrical signals through the transmission of light. The optocoupler mainly consists of two parts: a light-emitting device (such as a light-emitting diode LED) and a light-receiving device (such as a phototransistor, a photoresistor, etc.). The two parts are optically coupled through a transparent insulating material (such as an optical fiber, air, etc.) to achieve the isolated transmission of electrical signals.
[0044] Optionally, an optocoupler is used as the isolation circuit, and the optimal model of the optocoupler is selected to ensure the integrity and response speed of signal transmission.
[0045] In some of the embodiments, both the first rectifying circuit and the second rectifying circuit include a first diode and a second diode. The anode of the first diode is connected to the cathode of the second diode and is simultaneously connected to the first voltage-dividing resistor or the second voltage-dividing resistor. The cathodes of the first diode and the anodes of the second diode are respectively connected to both ends of the input terminal of the optocoupler.
[0046] Specifically, the first diode and the second diode form a diac.
[0047] Optionally, the first diode and the second diode adopt Schottky diodes with high efficiency and low forward voltage drop to improve the rectification efficiency and reduce the system heat loss.
[0048] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a contactor detection circuit in an embodiment. The contactor detection circuit includes: a first voltage-dividing resistor, a second voltage-dividing resistor, a first rectifying circuit, a second rectifying circuit, and an optocoupler.
[0049] Among them, the first detection point P1(+) is sequentially connected to the first voltage-dividing resistor and the first rectifying circuit, the second detection point P(+) is sequentially connected to the second voltage-dividing resistor and the second rectifying circuit. The output terminals of the first rectifying circuit and the second rectifying circuit are connected to the optocoupler U1. The output terminal JFC of the optocoupler U1 outputs a voltage signal, and a 5V voltage is used as the driving voltage of the optocoupler U1. Among them, the first rectifying circuit includes a first diode D1 and a second diode D2, the second rectifying circuit includes a first diode D3 and a second diode D4. The anodes of the first diodes D1 and D3 are respectively connected to the cathodes of the second diodes D2 and D4 and are simultaneously connected to the first voltage-dividing resistor or the second voltage-dividing resistor. The cathodes of the first diodes D1 and D3 and the anodes of the second diodes D2 and D4 are respectively connected to both ends of the input terminal of the optocoupler.
[0050] In some of the embodiments, the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor respectively include a plurality of resistors connected in series; the number of resistors connected in series in the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor is the same, and the resistance value of each resistor is equal.
[0051] Such as Figure 2As shown, the first voltage-dividing resistor includes resistors R1, R2, and R3 connected in series, and the second voltage-dividing resistor includes resistors R4, R5, and R6 connected in series. Connecting multiple resistors in series can reduce the voltage across a single resistor. The selection criteria for the resistors include the withstand voltage rating and accuracy requirements.
[0052] Furthermore, the number of resistors connected in series in the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor is the same, and the resistance value of each resistor is equal to ensure that the voltage across each resistor is consistent. Optionally, the resistance value of the resistor is 10K. Assuming the DC voltage is 1000V, each of the six resistors in the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor divides 167V. If the resistance values of each resistor are different, the voltage across some resistors exceeds 167V, which easily damages the resistors.
[0053] In this embodiment, the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor respectively include a number of resistors connected in series, and by setting the same number and resistance value of the resistors, the safety can be improved and resistor damage can be avoided.
[0054] In some of these embodiments, the contactor detection circuit further includes: a first protection circuit connected in parallel between the two rectifier circuits and the isolation circuit; the first protection circuit includes a first resistor and a first capacitor connected in parallel across the two ends of the input terminal of the optocoupler.
[0055] As Figure 2 shown, the first protection circuit includes a first resistor R8 and a first capacitor C1 connected in parallel across the two ends of the input terminal of the optocoupler U1. The first resistor R8 is connected in parallel with the two rectifier circuits, and the first capacitor C1 and the optocoupler U1 are connected in parallel. Among them, the first resistor R8 is used to limit the current flowing into the input terminal (LED) of the optocoupler U1, protect the LED from exceeding the rated current and prevent damage, and the first capacitor C1 is used to buffer the voltage change in the circuit and provide a more stable voltage supply for the LED to avoid unnecessary responses of the LED due to voltage fluctuations.
[0056] Through the setting of the first protection circuit in this embodiment, it is possible to avoid damage to the LED in the backend optocoupler due to current or unnecessary responses due to voltage fluctuations.
[0057] In some of these embodiments, it further includes: a second protection circuit;
[0058] The second protection circuit includes a second resistor and a second capacitor connected in parallel. One end of the second protection circuit is connected to the output terminal of the optocoupler, and the other end is grounded.
[0059] As Figure 2As shown, the second protection circuit includes a second resistor R9 and a second capacitor C2 connected in parallel. Optionally, the resistance value of the second resistor R9 is 3K. One end of the second resistor R9 in the second protection circuit is connected to the output end of the isolation circuit optocoupler U1, and the other end is grounded (GND). One end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the output end of the isolation circuit optocoupler U1, and the other end is grounded (GND). Among them, the second resistor R9 is a current-limiting resistor, which is used to protect the LED part of the optocoupler U1 to prevent damage to the LED caused by excessive current. The second capacitor C2 is a noise reduction capacitor, which is used to reduce circuit noise and stabilize the signal, ensure the normal operation of the optocoupler U1, and improve the reliability of the circuit.
[0060] Through the setting of the second protection circuit in this embodiment, the normal operation of the optocoupler can be ensured, and the reliability of the detection circuit can be improved.
[0061] In some of these embodiments, the contactor detection circuit further includes: a processor;
[0062] The output end of the isolation circuit is connected to the interrupt interface of the processor, and the processor is used to trigger an interrupt service when the isolation circuit outputs an abnormal voltage.
[0063] Specifically, the processor can adopt a DSP (Digital Signal Processing) chip; the rectifier circuit on the primary side of the isolation circuit is used to judge whether there is a voltage between the first detection point and the second detection point. When there is a voltage between the first detection point and the second detection point, the isolation circuit starts, and the voltage signal at the output end of the isolation circuit is connected to the interrupt interface of the processor. The voltage signal at the output end JFC of the isolation circuit is judged in the processor, such as judging the level of the voltage signal. When an abnormal voltage is judged, the processor can quickly process the abnormal voltage and trigger an interrupt service, such as the system stops running.
[0064] By connecting the output end of the isolation circuit in this embodiment to the interrupt interface of the processor, an interrupt service can be triggered when it is judged that the isolation circuit outputs an abnormal voltage, ensuring the safety and reliability of the circuit.
[0065] In some of these embodiments, it further includes: a pre-charge circuit connected in parallel with the contactor; the pre-charge circuit includes a pre-charge switch and a pre-charge resistor connected in series.
[0066] Specifically, since the input voltage of the circuit is a high voltage, the pre-charge circuit is used to slowly charge the large capacitor in the circuit to prevent the instantaneous large current impact generated during direct connection, which may damage the circuit or device. When closing the contactor, first close the pre-charge switch to reduce the current, then close the contactor, and disconnect the pre-charge switch to avoid directly closing the contactor, causing a risk of arcing due to too large an instantaneous current; when disconnecting the contactor, it is also necessary to first close the pre-charge switch, then disconnect the contactor and the pre-charge switch. Among them, the switch includes a relay or a contactor.
[0067] Through the setting of the pre-charge circuit in this embodiment, the power-on impact can be reduced, and the safety of the overall circuit can be improved.
[0068] Since it is necessary to control the contactor to be attracted and disconnected when detecting the contactor, in the case of heavy load operation of the circuit, the contactor and the pre-charge switch may fail, so it is necessary to perform detection during light load or startup.
[0069] The voltage signal at the output end JFC of the isolation circuit can reflect whether the contactor is normally closed and disconnected. Specifically, it includes the following situations:
[0070] When controlling the contactor to close, if the contactor is normally closed, the voltage across the contactor is 0, and the output end of the optocoupler JFC in the detection circuit is at a low level of 0V; if the contactor cannot be normally closed and the pre-charge switch is still in the closed state, at this time, there is voltage across the contactor, and the output end of the optocoupler JFC in the detection circuit is at a high level of 5V, which is judged as an abnormal voltage.
[0071] When controlling the contactor to disconnect, if the contactor is normally disconnected, the voltage across the contactor is still 0, and the output end of the optocoupler JFC in the detection circuit is at a low level of 0V; if the contactor cannot be normally disconnected and the pre-charge switch is still in the closed state, at this time, there is voltage across the contactor, and the output end of the optocoupler JFC in the detection circuit is at a high level of 5V.
[0072] Therefore, in the processor, it is possible to judge whether it is an abnormal voltage according to the high and low levels at the output end of the optocoupler JFC, and trigger an interrupt service when it is judged as an abnormal voltage.
[0073] The following describes and illustrates this embodiment through preferred embodiments.
[0074] This embodiment provides a contactor detection circuit, as Figure 2 shown, the circuit includes: a first voltage-dividing resistor, a second voltage-dividing resistor, a first rectifying circuit, a second rectifying circuit, a first protection circuit, a second protection circuit, and an isolation circuit.
[0075] Among them, the first detection point P1(+) of the contactor is sequentially connected to the first voltage-dividing resistor and the first rectifying circuit. The first voltage-dividing resistor includes resistors R1, R2, and R3 connected in series, and the first rectifying circuit includes the first diode D1 and the second diode D2. The second detection point P(+) of the contactor is sequentially connected to the second voltage-dividing resistor and the second rectifying circuit. The second voltage-dividing resistor includes resistors R4, R5, and R6 connected in series, and the second rectifying circuit includes the first diode D3 and the second diode D4.
[0076] The contactor includes an AC contactor and a DC contactor. After the output current of the contactor is divided by the first voltage-dividing resistor and the second voltage-dividing resistor, it is rectified by the first rectifying circuit and the second rectifying circuit to output a DC signal.
[0077] The first protection circuit includes a first resistor R8 and a first capacitor C1 connected in parallel. The first resistor R8 is connected in parallel with the two rectifying circuits, and the first resistor R8 and the first capacitor C1 are connected in parallel across the two ends of the input of the optocoupler U1. The first protection circuit is used to prevent the LED in the subsequent optocoupler from being damaged by current or generating unnecessary responses due to voltage fluctuations.
[0078] The isolation circuit is the optocoupler U1, and a 5V voltage is used as the driving voltage of the optocoupler U1. The output end JFC of the optocoupler U1 outputs a voltage signal, and the output end is connected to the interrupt interface of the DSP processor. When the isolation circuit outputs an abnormal voltage, it triggers the interrupt service of the DSP processor.
[0079] The second protection circuit includes a second resistor R9 and a second capacitor C2 connected in parallel. One end of the second resistor R9 in the second protection circuit is connected to the output end of the isolation circuit optocoupler U1, and the other end is grounded (GND). One end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the output end of the isolation circuit optocoupler U1, and the other end is grounded (GND). The second protection circuit is used to ensure the normal operation of the optocoupler U1.
[0080] The contactor detection circuit provided in this embodiment can convert both the positive-phase current and the negative-phase current output by the contactor into DC signals through voltage-dividing resistors and diode rectification, and then output a voltage signal through the isolation circuit to implement the contactor detection circuit. It can detect the positive-phase current and the negative-phase current of the contactor, and has the advantages of few components and no need for an additional power supply, simplifies the design of the detection circuit, and solves the problem of complex detection circuit design. Further, the processor can determine whether it is an abnormal signal according to the level of the voltage signal output by the isolation circuit, and can quickly process the abnormal signal.
[0081] This embodiment provides an energy storage converter, including: at least one contactor, and the contactor detection circuit in the above embodiment.
[0082] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the energy storage converter in this embodiment, asFigure 3 As shown, it includes DC contactors S2, S4 on the battery side (BAT+ and BAT-), and AC contactors S6, S8, S10 on the grid / load side (U, V, W). Each contactor is connected in parallel with a pre-charge circuit and a contactor detection circuit (only the detection points P1(+) and P(+) of one contactor are shown in the figure). The pre-charge circuit includes pre-charge switches S1, S3, S5, S7, S9 connected in series and pre-charge resistors R1 to R5.
[0083] Among them, IGBTs (Insulate-Gate Bipolar Transistors) VT1 to VT12 are used for the inversion of DC voltage to AC voltage. The IGBT module converts DC power into AC power through high-speed switching operations, or performs the opposite conversion. Diodes D1 to D6 are connected in parallel with the IGBTs to provide freewheeling for reverse current, prevent the IGBTs from being damaged by reverse voltage, and also help improve the efficiency of the system.
[0084] The capacitor banks C1 to C4 between the DC input and the IGBTs are used for filtering and stabilizing the DC voltage, reducing voltage fluctuations, so as to ensure that the IGBTs operate at a stable voltage level.
[0085] The AC power output by the IGBTs usually contains high-frequency switching noise and harmonics. The filter composed of inductors L1 to L6 and capacitors C9 to C11 is used to eliminate these high-frequency components, obtaining a purer sinusoidal AC output that meets the requirements of the grid or the load.
[0086] The three-phase AC output (U, V, W) is usually connected to the grid or the load. Through the control of the IGBTs, the DC power is converted into standard three-phase AC power and output through these ports.
[0087] It also includes a series of protection measures, such as current sensors CT1 to CT7, fuses FU, etc., which are used to monitor current and voltage to protect the system from overcurrent, short circuit or other faults.
[0088] Through the energy storage converter provided in this embodiment, the AC contactors and DC contactors in the energy storage converter are detected through the contactor detection circuit, improving the overall safety and reliability.
[0089] This embodiment provides an energy storage system, including: the energy storage converter in the above embodiment; the energy storage converter is connected to the energy storage battery and the grid and is used for the bidirectional conversion of DC power and AC power.
[0090] Specifically, when the energy storage battery is being charged, the system receives alternating current from the power grid. The energy storage converter operates in the rectification mode, converting the alternating current into direct current, which is then filtered and used to charge the energy storage battery. When the energy storage battery discharges, the energy storage battery provides direct current, and the energy storage converter converts the direct current into alternating current and outputs it to the power grid or the load.
[0091] In addition, the system can synchronize the output voltage and frequency of the inverter IGBT with the power grid through control, thereby achieving grid connection operation. In the grid-connected state, the energy storage battery can discharge at high electricity prices or charge at low electricity prices, playing a role in peak shaving and valley filling.
[0092] When the power grid is powered off or unstable, the system can automatically switch to the island mode, generating alternating current by itself to supply power to local loads and ensuring continuous power supply to important loads.
[0093] Through the energy storage system in this embodiment, it is possible to effectively manage the flow of energy, achieve stable power output and efficient utilization of electricity.
