Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of load boxes, and in particular to a reactor precision control circuit based on a load box. Background Art
[0002] A load bank is a device used to test and simulate the performance of electrical equipment (such as generators, transformers, inverters, etc.) under different load conditions. Its main function is to provide an adjustable load to evaluate the output characteristics and stability of the equipment during experiments or tests.
[0003] A search revealed the publication number CN216597250U, which discloses a reactor comprising an upper iron yoke and a lower iron yoke, with an iron core leg disposed between the upper and lower iron yokes. A coil is wound around the core leg, and a temperature controller is disposed between the core leg and the coil. The temperature controller is connected to the reactor circuit to monitor the reactor's temperature. When the temperature exceeds a set value, the temperature controller automatically disconnects the reactor circuit; when the temperature falls below the set value, the temperature controller automatically connects the reactor circuit, thereby achieving temperature control of the reactor.
[0004] However, although in the prior art, a temperature control protector is added to the reactor to ensure that the reactor operates in a reasonable operating temperature environment, during the control process of the reactor, if the current and voltage between the reactor and the load are too high or too low, the reactor and the load may be damaged, which still needs to be solved. The reactor needs to be precisely controlled and disconnected to avoid overcurrent and overvoltage.

[0023] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0024] See also Figure 1-3 , the embodiment provided by the utility model:
[0025] A load box-based reactor precision control circuit includes a control circuit for controlling the reactor, the control circuit includes an MCU and a PWM control circuit,
[0026] The control output terminal of the PWM control circuit is electrically connected to the switch control terminal of the drive circuit, such as Figure 2 As shown, specifically, the PWM control circuit includes a main control chip U1, the VCC terminal and the RST terminal of the main control chip U1 are electrically connected to the power supply terminal of the power supply module, and are also connected to one end of the resistor R1, the other end of the resistor R1 is connected to one end of the diode D1 and the diode D2, the other end of the resistor R1 is also connected to the DI SC terminal of the main control chip U1, the other ends of the diode D1 and the diode D2 are connected to two ends of the adjustable resistor RP, the adjustment end of the adjustable resistor RP is respectively connected to the TRIG terminal and the THR terminal of the main control chip U1, the adjustment end of the adjustable resistor RP is also connected to one end of the capacitor C2, the other end of the capacitor C2 is respectively connected to one end of the capacitor C1, the other end of the capacitor C1 is connected to the CVOLT terminal of the main control chip U1, the GND terminal of the main control chip U1 and one end of the capacitor C1 are grounded, and the OUT terminal of the main control chip U1 is electrically connected to the switch control terminal of the drive circuit.
[0027] The main control chip U1 is used to generate a continuous PWM signal. The resistor R1, the adjustable rheostat RP, and the capacitor C2 determine the frequency and duty cycle of the PWM signal. The diodes D1 and D2 are used to control the charging and discharging paths respectively, thereby adjusting the duty cycle of the PWM signal. When the main control chip U1 is at a high level, the capacitor C2 is charged through the resistor R1, the adjustable rheostat RP, and the diode D1. When the voltage of the capacitor C2 reaches 2 / 3VCC, the comparator inside the main control chip U1 is triggered, causing the OUT end of the main control chip U1 to become a low level. By adjusting the adjustable rheostat RP, the charging and discharging time can be changed, thereby adjusting the duty cycle of the PWM signal, and thus providing a PWM signal for the drive circuit.
[0028] The power supply output terminal of the drive circuit is electrically connected to the power supply terminal of the reactor, such as Figure 3 As shown, the driving circuit includes a transistor Q2 and a MOS transistor Q1. The base of the transistor Q2 is connected to one end of the resistor R2 and the resistor R3 respectively. The other end of the resistor R3 is connected to the emitter of the transistor Q2 and grounded. The other end of the resistor R2 is connected to the OUT terminal of the main control chip U1. The collector of the transistor Q2 is connected to one end of the resistor R1. The other end of the resistor R1 is connected to the power supply output terminal of the driving module. The two ends of the resistor R1 are respectively connected in parallel with the source and gate of the MOS transistor. The drain of the MOS transistor is electrically connected to the power supply terminal of the inductor.
[0029] When the PWM signal is at a high level, the base current of the transistor Q2 increases, causing the transistor Q2 to be turned on, reducing the collector voltage, and the gate voltage of the MOS transistor Q1 also decreases. If the gate voltage of the MOS transistor Q1 is lower than the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor, the MOS transistor will enter the shutdown state, and the current between the source and the drain will stop flowing, thereby cutting off the power supply to the reactor, so that the reactor does not work.
[0030] The power supply end of the drive circuit is electrically connected to the power supply module through a protection circuit. The protection circuit includes an overload protection circuit and a short-circuit protection circuit. The overload protection circuit includes a circuit breaker, and the short-circuit protection circuit includes a fuse. The power supply end of the power supply module is connected to the power supply input end of the circuit breaker, and the power supply output end of the circuit breaker is connected to one end of the fuse. The other end of the fuse is electrically connected to the power supply end of the reactor. The circuit breaker and the fuse are used to prevent the reactor from being damaged due to overload and short circuit.
[0031] The inductor is electrically connected to the load through the line, the detection end of the feedback sensor detects the electrical signal between the inductor and the load, the signal output end of the feedback sensor is electrically connected to the signal receiving end of the MCU, the feedback sensor includes a current sensor, the current sensor detects the current size of the inductor to the load line, and the feedback sensor includes a voltage sensor, which detects the voltage size of the inductor to the load line.
[0032] The voltage and current of the line from the reactor to the load are detected by voltage sensors and current sensors, and the detected electrical signals are sent to the MCU for processing through wires. The MCU compares the current and voltage thresholds according to the preset values. When the detected electrical signals are greater than the preset current and voltage thresholds, the PWM control circuit is controlled to control the drive circuit to shut down the reactor, so as to accurately control the reactor.
[0033] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
