With the increase of the power of the power supply module and the power of the entire charging pile, this reactive power loss will be greater and the impact will be more serious.

[0005] Adding an additional circuit has a complex function, and it is necessary to consider the power supply problem of the startup wake-up circuit after the input is disconnected.
[0006] Adding a circuit on the basis of the traditional soft start circuit will lead to more components and higher costs. Summary of the Utility Model
[0007] The utility model provides a soft start circuit to solve the above problems.
[0008] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0010] Switch group I is respectively connected to the 1st terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge and the 1st terminal of the EMC module, switch group II is respectively connected to the 2nd terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge and the 2nd terminal of the EMC module, the 3rd terminal of the EMC module is connected to phase C of the input power grid, the 4th - 6th terminals of the EMC module are respectively connected to the 1st - 3rd terminals of the three-phase PFC, and the three-phase PFC is also respectively connected to the two-phase rectifier bridge, the DC module, and the auxiliary power supply.

[0015] Further, during standby, since the third terminals of the single-pole double-throw switch K3 and the single-pole double-throw switch K4 are respectively connected to their first terminals, and the control switches K1 and K2 are in the off state, the input power grid is disconnected from the main power circuit of the power supply, minimizing the total reactive and active power losses of the power supply.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0017] The present utility model simultaneously has the functions of soft start and reducing the reactive and active power losses of the power supply in the standby state.

[0025] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0026] A soft start circuit, the circuit includes a two-phase rectifier bridge, a three-phase PFC, an EMC module, a DC module, an auxiliary power supply, switch group I and switch group II;
[0027] Switch group I is respectively connected to the No. 1 terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge and the No. 1 terminal of the EMC module, switch group II is respectively connected to the No. 2 terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge and the No. 2 terminal of the EMC module, the No. 3 terminal of the EMC module is connected to the C phase of the input power grid, the No. 4-6 terminals of the EMC module are respectively connected to the No. 1-3 terminals of the three-phase PFC, and the three-phase PFC is also respectively connected to the two-phase rectifier bridge, the DC module and the auxiliary power supply.
[0028] Further, the switch group I includes a resistor R1, a control switch K1, and a single-pole double-throw switch K4. One end of the resistor R1 is connected to the A phase of the input power grid, the other end of the resistor R1 is connected to the third terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch K4, the first terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch K4 is connected to the first terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge, and the second terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch K4 is connected to the A phase of the input power grid of the EMC module.
[0029] Further, the switch group II includes a resistor R2, a control switch K2, and a single-pole double-throw switch K3. One end of the resistor R2 is connected to the B phase of the input power grid, the other end of the resistor R2 is connected to the third terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch K3, the first terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch K3 is connected to the second terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge, and the second terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch K3 is connected to the B phase of the input power grid of the EMC module.
[0030] Further, the 4th terminal of the three-phase PFC is respectively connected to the 3rd terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge, one end of the capacitor C1, the 1st terminal of the DC module, and the 1st terminal of the auxiliary power supply. The 5th terminal of the three-phase PFC is respectively connected to the 4th terminal of the two-phase rectifier bridge, the other end of the capacitor C1, the 2nd terminal of the DC module, and the 2nd terminal of the auxiliary power supply.
[0031] When the module is in standby, the control switch K1 and the control switch K2 remain open, and the single-pole double-throw switches K3 and K4 remain connected to the first terminal. When power is first applied, since the capacitor C1 is in a discharged state, the resistors R1 and R2 can limit the current and suppress the inrush current.
[0032] During standby, through the resistors R1 and R2, via the single-pole double-throw switches K3 and K4, and then rectified by the two-phase rectifier bridge, the input voltage for the operation of the auxiliary power supply is provided. At this time, the auxiliary power supply only supplies power to a small number of devices that support the power-on wake-up operation.
[0033] Since the main power circuit (including EMC1 and three-phase PFC) is cut off during standby, the standby reactive and active losses are minimized, and at the same time, the power supply can be woken up for operation at any time.
[0034] When a power-on instruction is received, the single-pole double-throw switch K3 and the single-pole double-throw switch K4 disconnect the connection of the first end and connect to the second end. At this time, the resistors R1 and R2 play a role in suppressing the inrush current caused by the filter capacitor in the EMC1. After a delay for a period of time, the control switch K1 and the control switch K2 are closed. At this time, the main power circuit starts to be awakened and works normally. When the power module completes charging and changes from the working state to the standby state, first turn off the drive of the main power circuit, then disconnect the control switch K1 and the control switch K2. After a short delay, the single-pole double-throw switch K3 and the single-pole double-throw switch K4 disconnect the connection of the second end and connect to the first end, disconnect the main power circuit, and keep the auxiliary power part of the circuit working normally, and continue to wait for the power-on wake-up instruction.
[0035] Further, during standby, the third ends of the single-pole double-throw switch K3 and the single-pole double-throw switch K4 are respectively connected to their first ends, rectified by a two-phase rectifier bridge, and the branches formed by the current limiting of the resistors R1 and R2 provide the working input voltage for the auxiliary power supply.
[0036] Further, during standby, since the third ends of the single-pole double-throw switch K3 and the single-pole double-throw switch K4 are respectively connected to their first ends, and the control switch K1 and the control switch K2 are in the off state, the input power grid is disconnected from the main power circuit of the power supply, minimizing the total reactive and active power losses of the power supply.
[0037] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
