[0014] Figure 1 This is a simplified structural diagram of a ship's electromechanical power supply power-off protection device; DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] In order to deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments and drawings. The embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, a ship electromechanical power supply power failure protection device includes a main power supply, a power failure detection module, a switching control module, a backup power supply, a protection circuit module and an alarm module;
[0017] The power outage detection module is directly connected to the main power supply and monitors the power supply voltage and current in real time. It includes a voltage detector, a current detector, and a signal processor. The voltage and current detectors collect voltage and current signals, while the signal processor determines whether the signals indicate a power outage or abnormal fluctuations and sends a control signal to the switching control module. When the voltage or current of the main power supply falls below a preset threshold or a power outage occurs, the detector collects the signal and analyzes it through the signal processor. If a power outage or abnormal fluctuation is determined, the detection module sends a control signal to the switching control module, initiating the subsequent power switching process.
[0018] The switching control module includes a relay, an electronic switch, and a control chip. The electronic switch is a transistor or optocoupler, and the relay is a high-speed response relay, enabling millisecond-level switching between the main and backup power sources. The control chip receives signals from the power outage detection module and controls the relay to switch between the main and backup power sources via the electronic switch. Upon receiving a power outage signal, the control chip triggers the relay, disconnecting the main power source and quickly activating the backup power source, ensuring seamless operation of the electromechanical equipment during the power switching process. The entire switching process is designed to complete in milliseconds, preventing equipment from being affected by power outages.
[0019] The backup power source is a lithium battery pack or diesel generator set with automatic charge and discharge protection to ensure it remains fully charged in the event of a power outage. The backup power source's capacity should be sufficient to support short-term operation of electromechanical equipment. An intelligent management system typically monitors the backup power source's charge status and issues maintenance reminders when necessary. Once switched to the backup power source, it provides independent power until the primary power source is restored.
[0020] The protection circuit module includes an overcurrent protection circuit, an overvoltage protection circuit, and a power supply stabilization module. These modules monitor and adjust current and voltage when switching to the backup power source. The overcurrent protection circuit uses an electronic fuse to prevent damage to the device from excessive current flowing through the backup power source, while the overvoltage protection circuit prevents damage to the device from excessive voltage. When switching to the backup power source, the protection circuit module monitors and adjusts current and voltage. The voltage stabilization module uses pulse-width modulation technology to adjust the output voltage, ensuring that current and voltage remain within the device's tolerances.
[0021] The alarm module includes audible and visual alarms, which sound an alarm when switching to the backup power source. These alarms are a buzzer and indicator light, which provide real-time alerts to the crew. In the event of a power outage, the alarm module immediately triggers the buzzer and indicator light to alert the crew. If the main power source returns to normal, the alarm module issues a reset signal, ending the alarm state.
[0022] Overall workflow
[0023] Normal status: The main power supply is supplying power normally, the power failure detection module continuously monitors the power status, and the backup power supply is on standby.
[0024] Power outage occurs: The power outage detection module detects voltage anomaly or power outage and sends a signal to the switching control module.
[0025] Switching process: The switching control module cuts off the main power supply, starts the backup power supply, and the protection circuit module is turned on simultaneously to protect the electromechanical equipment from being affected.
[0026] Fault alarm: The alarm module emits audible and visual alarms to alert the crew.
[0027] Reset recovery: After the main power is restored, the system detects normal operation, the switching control module switches the backup power supply back to the main power supply, the alarm stops, and the system is reset.
[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
