[0055] 2. Working Principle
[0056] Illustratively, the water pump electrical box described in this embodiment is connected to a water pump.
[0057] Specifically, the water pump electrical box is powered on, the switch input module detects a power-on signal and inputs it into the first main control chip, the first main control chip outputs a signal to the relay drive module, the relay drive module then outputs a signal to the relay module, the relay module is attracted, and the water pump is powered on and operates;
[0058] Furthermore, the current transformer module collects the operating current of the water pump and inputs the data into the first main control chip, which then makes a safety judgment on the operating status of the water pump.
[0059] Specifically, when the water pump is overloaded, that is, the operating current exceeds the rated current, the relay module is disconnected after the overload state lasts for 3 seconds, and the water pump stops running; when the water pump is short of water, that is, the operating current is less than the water shortage current, the relay module is disconnected after the water shortage state lasts for 5 seconds, and the water pump stops running; when the water pump is missing a phase, the relay module is disconnected after the phase shortage state lasts for 3 seconds, and the water pump stops running; wherein, the water shortage current is set according to actual conditions, and the set value of the water shortage current is generally about 70% of the rated current.
[0060] In addition, the first main control chip is provided with a water absorption time. During the water absorption time, even if the operating current is less than the water shortage current, it is not determined to be in a water shortage state, the relay module remains energized, and the water pump remains running.
[0061] Furthermore, when the water pump enters the shutdown protection state due to overload, water shortage or phase loss, the first main control chip is controlled according to the set automatic recovery interval time. When the automatic recovery interval time is reached, the relay module is reset and the water pump runs; if the overload, water shortage or phase loss abnormality still exists, the relay module is disconnected again and the water pump stops running.
[0062] At the same time, the first main control chip is provided with an automatic recovery number. When the number of consecutive resets of the relay module reaches the automatic recovery number, the relay module is no longer reset and the water pump remains in a stopped state.
[0063] Furthermore, the user can read the operating status of the water pump and remotely control its on / off function through the RS485 communication module.
[0064] Furthermore, when the water pump is in an overloaded, water-deficient or phase-deficient state, the second main control chip outputs a signal to the digital tube driver module, and the digital tube driver module then outputs a signal to the digital tube module, and the digital tube module displays a fault, including words such as "overload", "water-deficient", and "phase-deficient".
[0065] Furthermore, when the water pump is in an overloaded, water-deficient, or phase-lost state, the first main control chip outputs a signal to the buzzer module, and the buzzer sounds an alarm.
[0066] Furthermore, parameter setting operations can be performed through the button module, such as setting the rated current, the water shortage current, and the number of automatic recovery times; when performing the parameter setting, the corresponding changes in the parameters can be displayed on the digital tube module.
[0067] Example 2
[0068] This embodiment provides a water pump, including a water pump body and a water pump electrical box; the water pump body is connected to the water pump electrical box.
[0069] Specifically, the water pump body includes a main control circuit; the main control circuit is connected to the relay module of the water pump electrical box.
[0070] For further introduction of the water pump provided in this embodiment, please refer to Example 1, and this embodiment will not be described in detail here.

[0072] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
