[0001] The utility model relates to motor technical field, concretely relates to a circuit structure and air conditioner. BACKGROUND
[0002] Brushless DC motor has the advantages of small size, high efficiency, simple control, wide operating speed range and high reliability. Therefore, in the end products of the air conditioning industry, a large number of brushless DC motors are used as motor solutions. For example: indoor fan, hanging cabinet and household indoor unit. At the same time, the air volume demand range of the product is also larger, and there is a demand for each air volume stage. In order to meet the different load conditions of each air volume, static pressure and shell, the commonly used scheme is to use single fan and double fan in combination. However, the conventional double fan drive needs to use two sets of driving systems and IPM modules. The device is more, the PCB board size is larger, and the cost has no advantage.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor should be within the scope of protection of the present application.

In this way, by arranging the overcurrent protection circuit 5, when it is detected that the current passing through the motor component 2 is overcurrent, the overcurrent protection circuit 5 sends a signal to the control module 3, and cuts off the power supply, thereby protecting the component.

In this way, according to the current detection module 4, it is convenient to control whether the current of each phase is abnormal, thereby facilitating the control of the circuit.

In this way, U1, V1, and W1 are the three-phase motor lines of the motor M1.

[0038] Participate Figures 1 to 4 In the circuit structure of the embodiment, the current detection module 4 is arranged on the winding of the motor component 2.
[0039] Specifically, the prior art driving circuit is a series connection of two upper and lower switching tubes, which controls two motors at the same time. The total current of the two motors is detected by the lower tube. By using the above arrangement, the current detection circuit 43 can directly detect the current of each phase by being arranged on the three phases of U1, V1 and W1.
[0040] The air conditioner of the embodiment comprises the circuit structure.
[0041] Specifically, the current detection module 4 is arranged on the line between the motor component 2 and the three-phase circuit 1, so that the actual current condition of each motor component 2 can be detected. The frequency conversion driving generally uses a current loop and a speed loop to control the motor speed, and the current loop needs to collect three-phase current. If the current of two motors is detected and calculated in a manner of division by 2, the actual current will deviate from the calculated theoretical value. Therefore, collecting the actual value of the current of a single motor can more accurately control the rotation of the motor. In actual use, it is difficult for two motors to operate completely consistently. If one of the motors fails, the single-motor sampling method can directly detect which motor is faulty, and does not affect the use of the other motor, thereby solving the technical problem of deviation of the actual current value of the parallel brushless direct current motor from the calculated theoretical value.
[0042] The technical solutions in the embodiments will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments.
[0043] As shown in Figures 1 to 5 The circuit structure of the parallel driving circuit of the brushless direct current motor disclosed in the embodiment comprises five components, i.e., a control module 3 (MCU), an intelligent power module 6 (IPM), a current detection circuit 43, an overcurrent protection circuit 5, a motor M1, M2 (the motor component 2 in the embodiment) and a series connection of a relay and a current sensor 42.
[0044] As shown in Figure 2As shown, the parallel driving circuit of the brushless DC motor disclosed in the embodiment is connected to two motors M1 and M2, and the same relay and current sensor 42 are connected in series to each winding of each motor. The relay functions to control the switching of single and double fan motors. The current sensor is arranged on the winding of each motor, which is different from the conventional arrangement at the lower end of the switch tube. The advantage is that the arrangement at the lower end of the switch tube can detect the sum of the currents of the two motors in parallel connection, and cannot detect the actual current of the single motor. The connection mode in the embodiment can detect the actual three-phase current of each motor part 2, has higher control accuracy, and can more easily detect the abnormal failure of the single motor.
[0045] As shown, Figure 5 The control method of the parallel driving circuit disclosed in the embodiment is shown. The MCU determines whether the load power is greater than P0 according to the actual load demand. If less than P0, K1, K2 and K3 are closed, and K4, K5 and K6 are disconnected. Then the PWM wave is started to be sent, the IPM receives the PWM wave, inverts the bus voltage into three-phase alternating current U, V and W, and supplies M1. The brushless DC motor M1 starts to run, and the running speed of the brushless DC motor M1 can be changed by PWM wave modulation to obtain different air volume to meet different air volume demands. When the required air volume is high, the MCU controls the relays K1, K2, K3, K4, K5 and K6 to be attracted. At the same time, the PWM wave is sent to control the IPM to output three-phase alternating current, and the motors M1 and M2 are synchronously operated to meet the load air volume demand.
[0046] The PWM wave modulation needs to detect the current three-phase current value. Each phase current is sampled by the current sensor 42, and is transmitted to the MCU in real time through the current detection circuit. At the same time, the collected current also passes through the overcurrent protection circuit 5 to feed back the overcurrent signal to the MCU for processing in time. Because the relays and current sensors 42 of M1 and M2 are arranged separately, when one of the motors fails, such as out of step, locked rotor, etc., the MCU can freely disconnect the power supply of the faulty motor through the relay, without affecting the use of the other motor.
