Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of equipment braking, and in particular to a braking circuit for a mining dump truck. Background Art
[0002] Traditional fuel-powered mining dump trucks have gradually become a key target of environmental protection management in the mining industry due to their high energy consumption and exhaust emissions. In response to energy transition and environmental protection requirements, an open-pit mine in Yunnan Province, based on the company's actual situation, carried out a pure electric transformation of the TR50 fuel-powered mining dump truck. The truck replaced the engine with a power battery, achieving zero emissions and low noise operation. In addition, an electric brake assisted parking function was added to the original vehicle's air brake to improve vehicle operation reliability. However, during operation, the modified pure electric mining dump truck repeatedly failed to operate due to a three-phase voltage output fault in the converter cabinet, especially under heavy-load downhill conditions. The failure of the air brake caused the vehicle to stop reliably due to the electric brake, posing a certain threat to the life safety of the operator.
[0003] Therefore, the present application proposes a braking circuit for a mining dump truck, which can solve the technical problem that the mining dump truck cannot brake when a single three-phase voltage output circuit fails. A spare three-phase voltage output circuit is set up, which can enable another three-phase voltage output circuit when one three-phase voltage output circuit fails, thereby ensuring the normal output of the braking power source of the mining dump truck. Utility Model Content

[0027] Figure 1 An embodiment of a braking circuit for a mining dump truck of the present application is shown. Figure 1 In this embodiment, the braking circuit of a mining dump truck includes: a power component, a power supply component and a power failure detector.
[0028] Among them, see Figure 1 The power supply assembly includes a high-voltage battery, a positive busbar, a negative busbar, a first converter, a second converter, and a contactor. The high-voltage battery is installed on the mining dump truck, with the positive and negative poles of the high-voltage battery electrically connected to the positive and negative busbars, respectively. The first converter and the second converter are connected in parallel to the positive and negative busbars. The three-phase output terminals of the first converter and the second converter are electrically connected to the three-phase input terminals of the power assembly. The contactor is installed at the three-phase output terminals of the second converter and controls the on / off switching of the three-phase output terminals of the second converter. A power failure detector is installed at the three-phase output terminals of the first converter and is used to detect whether the voltage at the three-phase output terminals of the first converter is normal. When the mining dump truck brakes, the high-voltage direct current output of the high-voltage battery is converted into alternating current by the first converter, which provides electrical energy to the power assembly. During this process, a power failure detector monitors the voltage output by the first converter in real time. If the first converter's output voltage fails, the control contactor connects the circuit between the second converter and the power assembly, supplying power to the power assembly through the second converter. This solves the problem of a mining dump truck being unable to brake when a single three-phase voltage output circuit fails, ensuring safe operation.
[0029] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the initial state of the contactor is the disconnected state, which ensures that only one three-phase voltage output circuit is working during the operation of the braking circuit of the mining dump truck.
[0030] Further, see Figure 1 The power supply component also includes a thermal relay, which is used to protect the power component from overload and short circuit.
[0031] Optionally, the power component is an air compressor, which is used to output an air brake source of the mining dump truck to brake the mining dump truck according to demand.
[0032] Optionally, the first converter and the second converter are DC / AC converters for converting direct current into alternating current.
[0033] Optionally, the voltage output by the high-voltage battery is 800V high-voltage direct current, and the voltage output by the first converter and the second converter is 380V alternating current.
[0034] Optionally, when the value detected by the power failure detector is equal to the set value, the output value is 1; when the value detected by the power failure detector is not equal to the set value, the output value is 0.
[0035] Further, see Figure 1 The braking circuit of the mining dump truck also includes a controller, which is electrically connected to the contactor and the power-off detector respectively. The controller pre-stores a number of control instructions. The controller receives the signal output by the power-off detector, matches the corresponding control instructions to calculate and analyze the signal, and matches the corresponding control instructions to control the disconnection / connection of the contactor.
[0036] It should be noted that this embodiment focuses on the working principle of the controller. The specific structure of the controller is not the focus of this embodiment and is existing technology. This embodiment and the accompanying drawings have given the installation location or area of the controller, and the specific structure of the controller will not be repeated.
[0037] To further illustrate, this embodiment focuses on the working principles of the high-voltage battery, the positive busbar, the negative busbar, the first converter, the second converter, the contactor, the power failure detector and the thermal relay. The specific structure of these components is not the focus of this embodiment and is the prior art. This embodiment and the accompanying drawings have given the installation positions and areas of these components, and the specific structures of the high-voltage battery, the positive busbar, the negative busbar, the first converter, the second converter, the contactor, the power failure detector and the thermal relay are no longer repeated.
[0038] In this embodiment, the first converter converts the direct current output by the high-voltage battery into alternating current and transmits it to the power assembly, and uses a power-off detector to detect whether the voltage at the three-phase output end of the first converter is normal. When the first converter fails, the control contactor connects the power supply between the second converter and the power assembly, thereby solving the problem that the mining dump truck cannot brake when a single three-phase voltage output circuit fails, thereby ensuring the safety of the mining dump truck.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the present application. The dimensions of the drawings are not related to the specific objects, and the dimensions of the objects can be changed arbitrarily.
