Abstract
Description
An impact testing device for motor varistor Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brushed motor testing devices, and in particular to an impact testing device for motor varistor. Background Technology
[0002] During operation, a brushed DC motor generates an electromotive force (EMF) voltage that is opposite to the electrical voltage. This back EMF can cause severe arcing during commutator switching, affecting motor performance and potentially failing to meet EMC management requirements. To reduce this back EMF, it's necessary to dissipate this voltage and reduce sparking. In the industry, a varistor (DV) is typically installed on the commutator in the armature core. However, varistors are relatively fragile components, prone to cracking during manufacturing, which is difficult to detect visually. Therefore, we consider conducting a high-voltage withstand test on the varistor before it's put into use, and then testing its E10 value to assess its performance.
[0003] The E10 value refers to the reverse voltage of the varistor when a DC current of 10 mA flows through it. This parameter mainly describes the voltage withstand capability of the varistor under overcurrent surges and is a key performance indicator of strontium titanate (TSR) type varistors. E10 is mainly used to evaluate the performance of varistors in continuous overcurrent protection scenarios, such as DC motors and other devices requiring fast response. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to propose an impact testing device for motor varistors. The device is designed to apply a high voltage to the varistor instantaneously, so that the varistor can be tested before it is put into use, thus avoiding a large number of defects after mass production.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes an impact testing device for motor varistor, comprising:
[0006] The main power supply is 220V AC power, and inductors are connected in parallel to the positive and negative terminals of the main power supply. The inductors are used to output DC power with a predetermined voltage.
[0007] The DC power output is controlled by a predetermined DC power output through a switch QS and a control module FU.
[0008] The first power supply branch is a variable voltage power supply, and the first branch includes a first DC positive branch and a first DC negative branch.
[0009] A capacitor module is connected in parallel between the first DC positive branch and the first DC negative branch.
[0010] A voltage display is connected in parallel between the first branch power supply and the capacitor module. The voltage display is used to acquire and record the reverse voltage change of the varistor located in the converter.
[0011] The capacitor module includes a first capacitor C1, a second capacitor C2, and a third capacitor C3.
[0012] The first DC positive branch is connected to a time relay behind the capacitor module. The time relay is used to control the time interval between the power supply of the first branch being turned on and off.
[0013] The output terminal A of the first DC positive branch and the input terminal B of the first DC negative branch;
[0014] The output terminal A and the input terminal B are each provided and are electrically connected to the commutator segments of the converter.
[0015] In practical design, given that varistors consume electrical energy, when a varistor meets the predetermined requirements,
[0016] When the commutator is not installed on the motor, the output terminal A and input terminal B are directly in contact with the commutator, thus enabling the input of a predetermined voltage to the commutator.
[0017] In actual testing, the time relay determines the output voltage of the commutator based on different discharge gaps and voltages, thereby obtaining the internal resistance of the varistor.
[0018] When the resistance value of the varistor meets the requirements, the reverse voltage value recorded by the voltage display is within the predetermined range, then the varistor meets the requirements.
[0019] When the resistance value of the varistor does not meet the requirements, the reverse voltage value recorded by the voltage display will be greater than the predetermined value, thus allowing the varistor to be judged to be qualified in a timely manner.
[0020] In actual testing, this structure can be upgraded to automated equipment, that is, the commutator segments are transported by a fixture or a conveyor belt, preferably by a fixture. When the fixture is in the test position, the output terminal A and the input terminal B are respectively connected to the commutator segments, and the time relay outputs a predetermined voltage to the commutator segments to test their withstand voltage value, thereby obtaining the product qualification rate and improving the testing efficiency.
