Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of rotational speed detection technology for electric equipment, and specifically to a speed detection circuit for a brushed motor. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of medical electric equipment, brushed motors are commonly used as the power source to achieve precise control of moving parts. For brushed motors that require speed regulation, incremental encoders are usually installed on the motor as speed acquisition sensors to calculate the real-time speed of the motor in order to monitor and adjust the speed in real time.
[0003] In existing technical solutions, a common approach is to use the I / O pins of a microcontroller chip to collect encoder logic signals for counting, and then convert the number of encoder logic signals collected per unit time into N revolutions per minute, thereby calculating the motor speed.
[0004] However, commonly used ABL encoders require two or more I / Os, which not only increases the burden on the microcontroller resources, but also requires additional encoders to be installed for brushed motors that are not equipped with ABL encoders, resulting in higher costs. Furthermore, incremental encoders need to be replaced after a certain number of years of use, which has high maintenance costs. In some harsh environments, such as magnetic field environments, the accuracy of the encoder may be affected, posing potential risks. Utility Model Content

The drive circuit adopts an H-bridge circuit design, providing a flexible speed control method for the brushed motor. During the rotation of the brushed motor, the carbon brushes are triggered with each revolution. The spark interference from the carbon brush stroke is coupled into the motor current.
