[0020] The electric lock protection circuit comprises a monostable trigger U3, the 1 pin of monostable trigger U3 is connected with one end of capacitor C4, the other end of capacitor C4 is connected with the 2 pin of monostable trigger U3 and one end of resistor R13 respectively, the other end of resistor R13 is connected with the 2 pin of three-terminal voltage regulator U1 and the 16 pin of monostable trigger U3 respectively, the 3 pin, 5 pin and 13 pin of monostable trigger U3 are connected, the 4 pin of monostable trigger U3 is connected with the 1 pin of comparator A1, the 6 pin and 11 pin of monostable trigger U3 are connected, the 8 pin and 12 pin of monostable trigger U3 are connected and grounded, the 14 pin of monostable trigger U3 is connected with one end of capacitor C5 and one end of resistor R14 respectively, the other end of resistor R14 is connected with the 16 pin of monostable trigger U3, the other end of capacitor C5 is connected with the 15 pin of monostable trigger U3.
[0021] The 10 pin of monostable trigger U3 is connected with one end of resistor R2 and one end of resistor R1 respectively, the other end of resistor R1 is connected with the negative pole of power supply, the other end of resistor R2 is connected with the G pole of MOS tube Q2, the S pole of MOS tube Q2 is connected with the other end of resistor R1, the D pole of MOS tube Q2 is connected with one end of capacitor C1, one end of capacitor C1 is connected with one end of resistor R4 and one end of resistor R3 respectively, the other end of capacitor C1 is connected with the S pole of MOS tube Q2 and the other end of resistor R4 respectively, the other end of resistor R3 is connected with the positive pole of power supply and the positive pole of electric equipment respectively, one end of resistor R4 is also connected with the G pole of MOS tube Q1, the S pole of MOS tube Q1 is connected with the other end of resistor R4, the D pole of MOS tube Q1 is connected with the negative pole of electric equipment.
[0022] In the utility model, the whole circuit is arranged between the initial section of branch circuit and electric equipment, wherein the auxiliary power supply circuit is as shown in the figure, three-terminal voltage regulation circuit is adopted to realize stable power supply, and is used for power supply of sampling circuit and lock protection circuit. Figure 1 In addition, the three-terminal voltage regulator also provides reference voltage Vref
[0023] The sampling circuit is as shown in the figure. Figure 2As shown, in the normal load condition, the voltage divided by R11 and R12 is positive, the reverse terminal voltage of comparator A1 is zero, and the output of comparator A1 is low; when short circuit overcurrent occurs, the voltage drop on sampling resistor R7 increases, the voltage value of the reverse terminal of comparator A1 decreases, and when the voltage value of the reverse terminal of comparator A1 drops to 0V, the overcurrent protection signal QH of comparator A1 is output.
[0024] The protection lock circuit is as shown in Figure 3 As shown, the monostable trigger U3 is CD4098, which has the characteristic that under the triggering of an input pulse, a rectangular pulse with constant width is generated at its output, and this state is temporarily stable, and returns to the initial state after a time t. The time t is adjusted by external resistors R13 and R14 and external capacitors C5 and C4. The pulse widening circuit obtained by the monostable trigger U3 widens the narrow pulse of the overcurrent signal, locks off the time of MOS transistor Q1, avoids the overcurrent protection frequency being too high when the overcurrent protection is turned on, and prevents the MOS transistor Q1 from being damaged by overheating. Moreover, since it returns to the initial state after a time t, the protection is recoverable.
[0025] In operation, when the sampling circuit obtains the overcurrent protection signal QH, the QH signal is output as QH1 after passing through the monostable trigger U3, and QH1 is the widened wave of QH. Since the load needs to be disconnected from the bus during overcurrent, i.e. the MOS transistor Q1 needs to be turned off, the gate voltage of the MOS transistor Q1 needs to be adjusted to be low, and the overcurrent protection signal needs to be inverted before being used to control the MOS transistor Q1. The overcurrent signal control logic can be inverted through the MOS transistor Q2. When the electrical equipment is working normally, the sampling circuit outputs a low-level signal QH, Q1 is turned on, and the power supply circuit normally provides voltage for the subsequent circuit. When the subsequent circuit has a short circuit fault, the sampling circuit outputs a high-level overcurrent signal QH, MOS transistor Q2 is turned on, the gate of MOS transistor Q1 is grounded through MOS transistor Q2, MOS transistor Q1 is cut off, and the protection lock circuit sets the gate of MOS transistor Q1 to be low and maintains for a period of time, which is the protection action lock time. After the lock time ends, the protection lock circuit releases the gate of MOS transistor Q1, and MOS transistor Q1 is turned on again, and the circuit is started again. If the load that causes the overcurrent fault is directly in the circuit, then MOS transistor Q1 will be in a cycle of being turned on and protection, so that the branch will not affect the power supply bus when a short circuit fault occurs, thereby ensuring that other branches work normally, and the ability to supply power to the load equipment of the branch can be automatically restored after the short circuit fault is eliminated.
