[0021] The output port self -restoring short circuit protection circuit of the generator set controller can be divided into two modules of output control module and output protection module according to function.

[0022] The output control module circuit includes: relay RLY1 and signal input circuit;Wherein signal input circuit includes: diode D3, triode Q1, capacitor C1, C2, resistance R3, R4.

[0023] The 1 pin of the relay RLY1 is connected to the cathode of the diode D3, a first power supply (VCC_5V) and one end of the capacitor C1, and the other end of the capacitor C1 is connected to GND. The 2 pin of the relay RLY1 is connected to the anode of the diode D3 and the 3 pin of the triode Q1, the 2 pin of the triode Q1 is connected to GND, the 1 pin of the triode Q1 is connected to one end of the resistor R3, the other end of the resistor R3 is connected to a control pin (MCU_GPIO) of the MCU, the capacitor C2 and one end of the resistor R4, and the other end of the capacitor C2 and the resistor R4 is connected to GND. The 3 pin of the relay RLY1 is connected to a second power supply (DC24V_IN), and the 4 pin (normally open contact) of the relay RLY1 is connected to one end of the resistor R2 and the 2 pin of the triode Q2, and the 5 pin (normally closed contact) of the relay RLY1 is suspended.

[0024] The output protection module circuit comprises a relay RLY2, diodes D1 and D4, a triode Q2, a TVS tube D2, resistors R1, R2 and R5. The 1 pin of the relay RLY2 is connected to the 3 pin of the triode Q2 and the cathode of the diode D4, the 2 pin of the relay RLY2 is connected to the anode of the diode D4 and GND, the 3 pin of the relay RLY2 is connected to the other end of the resistor R2, the 4 pin (normally open contact) of the relay RLY2 is suspended, the 5 pin (normally closed contact) of the relay RLY2 is connected to one end of the resistors R1 and R5, the other end of the resistor R1 is connected to the anode of the diode D1, the cathode of the diode D1 is connected to an output and one end of the TVS tube D2, the other end of the TVS tube D2 is connected to GND, and the other end of the resistor R5 is connected to the 1 pin of the triode.

[0025] The first power supply (VCC_5V) is a power supply of the circuit, and the second power supply (DC24V_IN) is a power supply for external output. The input signal of the circuit is an MCU_GPIO signal sent by a single-chip microcomputer, and the signal is a 3.3V TTL signal. The output signal of the circuit is an OUTPUT signal, and the signal is a 24V voltage output.

[0026] In actual use, the resistors R1 and R5 are current limiting resistors, which respectively protect the triode Q2 and limit the current output to the outside. The diodes D3 and D4 can protect the relay coil, and the diode D1 is used to prevent external current from flowing back to damage the circuit. The TVS tube D2 is used to prevent external instantaneous high voltage from damaging the circuit.

[0027] The circuit has three states when working: normal disconnection, normal output and abnormal non-output.

[0028] When the MCU_GPIO signal of the MCU is a low level signal, the signal reaches the transistor Q1 after being filtered by the capacitor C2 and the current-limiting resistor R3. At this time, the base-emitter voltage Ube of the transistor Q1 is less than its opening voltage, and the transistor is in a cut-off state. No current flows through the coil of the 1.2 pin of the relay RLY1, and the relay RLY1 is not attracted. At this time, the 3 pin of the relay RLY1 is connected to the 5 pin, and the 4 pin has no 24V entering. The entire circuit is in a non-output state.

[0029] When the MCU_GPIO signal of the MCU is a high level signal, the signal reaches the transistor Q1 after being filtered by the capacitor C2 and the current-limiting resistor R3. At this time, the base-emitter voltage Ube of the transistor Q1 is greater than its opening voltage, and the transistor is in a conducting state. A 5V current flows through the coil of the 1.2 pin of the relay RLY1, and the relay RLY1 is attracted. At this time, the 3 pin of the relay RLY1 is connected to the 4 pin, and the 24V power supply enters the next stage of circuit. The 24V power supply passes through the sampling resistor R2. Since the R2 resistor is extremely small, the voltage drop across it is much smaller than the opening voltage of the transistor Q2, and the transistor is in a cut-off state. No current flows through the coil of the 1.2 pin of the relay RLY2, and the relay RLY2 is not attracted. At this time, the 3 pin of the relay RLY2 is connected to the 5 pin, and the 24V power supply begins to output externally.

[0030] When the external load is in a short circuit condition, the DC 24V power supply is short-circuited, and the current instantaneously increases. The voltage drop across the sampling resistor R2 suddenly increases. At this time, the voltage drop is greater than the opening voltage of the transistor Q2, and the transistor is in a conducting state. At this time, the relay coil is energized, the relay RLY1 is attracted, the 3 pin of the relay RLY2 is disconnected from the 5 pin, and the external 24V power supply is stopped, realizing the short circuit protection function.

[0031] The principle of the short circuit self-recovery function is as follows: When the external short circuit occurs, the circuit stops outputting. At this time, the external load is still in a short circuit state, which can be equivalent to being directly connected to GND. That is, the base voltage of the transistor Q2 is 0V, and the emitter voltage of the transistor Q2 is 24V. The base-emitter voltage Ube of the transistor Q2 is much greater than the opening voltage, and the transistor Q2 is always in an open state. The relay RLY2 is always in an attracted state, and the external 24V output is stopped. When the external short circuit disappears, the ground connection of the base of the transistor Q2 disappears. At this time, the base-emitter voltage Ube of the transistor Q2 will be less than the opening voltage, and the transistor Q2 will become a cut-off state. The relay RLY2 will become a non-attracted state. At this time, the 3 pin of the relay RLY2 continues to be connected to the 5 pin, and the entire circuit will continue to output 24V power supply.

[0032] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application, and thus equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the structure, features and principles described in the patent application scope of the present application are included in the patent application protection scope of the present application.
