Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of photovoltaic inverter technology, and specifically refers to a photovoltaic inverter start-up auxiliary power supply circuit, power supply circuit and photovoltaic inverter. Background Technology
[0002] A photovoltaic (PV) inverter is the core device in a photovoltaic (PV) system. Its main function is to convert the direct current (DC) generated by solar panels into alternating current (AC) for use by household or industrial electrical equipment. A PV inverter has a DC bus, whose voltage is typically several hundred volts. The electrical energy output from PV modules, batteries, the grid, or generators is rectified and boosted before being fed into the DC bus. The PV inverter then converts the DC power on the DC bus back into AC power to supply loads or connect to the grid.
[0003] A photovoltaic (PV) inverter's power circuit typically draws power from the DC bus, steps it down, and outputs +15V, +12V, -12V, and -15V to power its internal components. However, when a PV inverter starts up, there is no voltage on the DC bus, preventing it from drawing power to power its components. Therefore, PV inverters need to draw power from the grid or a generator.
[0004] Therefore, the startup auxiliary circuit of a photovoltaic inverter draws two-phase line voltage from the grid or generator as input. Existing photovoltaic inverters rectify these two-phase line voltages via full-wave rectification before feeding them into the DC bus to charge the bus capacitor. However, at the moment of startup, the DC bus capacitor is approximately short-circuited, and due to the high grid voltage, a large inrush current is easily generated, subjecting the startup auxiliary circuit to significant stress and reducing its reliability and lifespan.

[0022] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] Since there is no voltage on DC bus 14 when the photovoltaic inverter starts up, it cannot draw power from DC bus 14 to start its components. Therefore, the photovoltaic inverter needs to draw power from the grid or generator through an auxiliary power supply circuit. However, the voltage output by the grid or generator is often relatively high, which can easily generate large inrush currents. This puts significant stress on the auxiliary power supply circuit, potentially damaging the lifespan of the components. Therefore, a new auxiliary power supply circuit needs to be designed to solve this problem.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, this application embodiment provides a startup auxiliary power circuit for a photovoltaic inverter, including: a half-wave rectifier unit 12, a full-wave rectifier unit 11, and a first unidirectional conduction unit 17; the AC input terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 is connected to the AC source 13 of the startup auxiliary power circuit through the half-wave rectifier unit 12; the DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 is connected to the DC bus 14 of the photovoltaic inverter through the first unidirectional conduction unit 17; the DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 outputs a first supply voltage to the DC bus 14, and the voltage of the DC bus 14 is used as the startup voltage of the photovoltaic inverter.
[0027] Among them, the full-wave rectifier unit 11 refers to a circuit that can achieve full-wave rectification of AC power, including modular full-wave rectifier bridges, bridge rectifier bridges composed of four diodes, etc. The half-wave rectifier unit 12 refers to a circuit that can achieve half-wave rectification of AC power, including those using diodes, MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors) with body diodes, and IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors), etc. The first unidirectional conduction unit 17 defines the direction of current flow, conducting in the forward direction and cutting off in the reverse direction. The first unidirectional conduction unit 17 can be a diode, a MOSFET with a body diode, or an IGBT, etc. The AC source 13 refers to a circuit that can generate AC power, or it can refer to the two-phase line voltage obtained after a photovoltaic inverter is connected to the grid or generator. Taking the two-phase line voltage of a three-phase grid as an example, the voltage difference between the two-phase line voltages is 380V, and the two-phase line voltage is equivalent to outputting a sine wave with an amplitude of 380V. The sine wave is first rectified by a half-wave rectifier unit 12, meaning that half a cycle is used in each period, resulting in a half-cycle with no current. This effectively reduces the average input current and decreases the stress on the auxiliary power supply circuit. After passing through the half-wave rectifier unit 12, the sine wave becomes a pulsating DC voltage and then passes through the full-wave rectifier unit 11 and the first unidirectional conduction unit 17 before reaching the DC bus 14. The structural characteristics of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 prevent current from flowing back into the two-phase line voltages of the power grid used for power extraction, thus providing protection. The half-wave rectifier unit 12 can be connected to either of these two line voltages, and the conduction direction is unrestricted; that is, the beneficial technical effects of this embodiment can be achieved whether the positive or negative half-cycle is used. This embodiment, by combining the half-wave rectifier unit 12 and the full-wave rectifier unit 11, establishes voltage for the DC bus 14 of the photovoltaic inverter while protecting the auxiliary power supply circuit and preventing backflow into the power grid, demonstrating excellent beneficial effects.
[0028] The power circuit of the photovoltaic inverter draws power from the DC bus 14 and converts it to the required voltage to power the various chips. Then, the inverter's drive board connects directly to the grid and draws three-phase power from it. The drive board has a topology circuit composed of power switching transistors. After drawing three-phase power from the grid, the topology circuit converts AC to DC to charge the DC bus 14. When the DC bus 14 voltage exceeds the first supply voltage, the first unidirectional conduction unit 17 is cut off, and the auxiliary power supply circuit no longer supplies current to the DC bus 14. This is because the AC power output from the AC source 13, after half-wave rectification, will produce a higher peak current compared to full-wave rectification. However, the startup time of the photovoltaic inverter is generally short, and this peak current has a relatively small impact on the bus capacitor. After the first unidirectional conduction unit 17 is cut off, the influence of the auxiliary power supply circuit on the bus capacitor is isolated, thus protecting the bus capacitor.
[0029] Example 2
[0030] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1. When the voltage of DC bus 14 exceeds the first supply voltage, the auxiliary power circuit no longer needs to draw power from the grid. Therefore, to ensure the safe operation of the photovoltaic inverter, the connection between the auxiliary power circuit and DC bus 14 needs to be disconnected. Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also includes a switching unit 15; the DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 includes a first DC output terminal and a second DC output terminal; the first DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 is connected to the first terminal of the switching unit 15 through a first unidirectional conduction unit 17, the second terminal of the switching unit 15 is connected to the positive bus of the DC bus 14; the third terminal of the switching unit 15 is connected to the second DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11, and the fourth terminal of the switching unit 15 is connected to the negative bus of the DC bus 14.
[0031] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the switching unit 15 includes a multi-pole relay 18 and a relay control module 19. The multi-pole relay 18 includes a driver 183, a first switch 184, and a second switch 185. The first terminal of the first switch 184 is connected to the first terminal of the switching unit 15, and the second terminal of the first switch 184 is connected to the second terminal of the switching unit 15. The first terminal of the second switch 185 is connected to the third terminal of the switching unit 15, and the second terminal of the second switch 185 is connected to the fourth terminal of the switching unit 15. The relay control module 19 is connected to the first terminal of the driver 183, and the second terminal of the driver 183 is connected to a third power supply voltage, i.e., H+12V. The relay control module 19 is used to control the on / off state of the first switch 184 and the second switch 185. The driver 183 of the multi-pole relay 18 contains a coil. If the multi-pole relay 18 is a normally closed relay, then when the coil is energized, the first switch 184 disconnects the connection between the first and second terminals of the switching unit 15, and the second switch 185 disconnects the connection between the third and fourth terminals of the switching unit 15; conversely, they connect. If the multi-pole relay 18 is a normally open relay, when the coil is energized, the first switch 184 connects the connection between the first and second terminals of the switching unit 15, and the second switch 185 connects the connection between the third and fourth terminals of the switching unit 15; conversely, they disconnect.
[0032] The relay control module 19 includes at least one fourth diode D4, the anode of the fourth diode D4 being connected to the first end of the drive 183, and the cathode of the fourth diode D4 being connected to the second end of the drive 183; the fourth diode D4 is used to discharge the coil current of the multi-pole relay 18.
[0033] The first resistor R1 receives the relay control signal at its first end; the relay control signal is issued by the control chip of the photovoltaic inverter, and existing technology can be used to obtain the voltage of the DC bus 14 from the control chip.
[0034] The second resistor R2 has its first end connected to the first end of the first resistor R1, and its second end connected to the negative bus. This is to ensure that the entire circuit can operate under the same reference potential, which is an existing principle and will not be elaborated upon in this embodiment.
[0035] The first switching transistor Q1 has its control electrode connected to the second terminal of the first resistor R1, its first electrode connected to the first terminal of the driving device 183, and its second electrode grounded. The control electrode controls the conduction or cutoff of the first and second electrodes according to the relay control signal. The first switching transistor Q1 can be a transistor or a MOSFET. If Q1 is a MOSFET, then its first electrode is the drain, its second electrode is the source, and its control electrode is the gate. If Q1 is an NPN transistor (NPN bipolar junction transistor), then its first electrode is the collector, its second electrode is the emitter, and its control electrode is the base. The same logic applies to PNP transistors (PNP bipolar junction transistors) and IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors).
[0036] When the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter begin to operate normally, and the photovoltaic inverter's drive board can draw power from the grid and supply it to the DC bus 14, the control chip sends a relay control signal to control the multi-pole relay 18 to disconnect, thereby physically cutting off the connection between the auxiliary power supply circuit and the DC bus 14. Alternatively, the connection can be cut off without waiting for the DC bus 14 voltage to exceed the first supply voltage. In this case, the first unidirectional conduction unit 17 mainly serves to prevent backflow.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, AC source 13 includes grid connection terminals, namely Grid-R1 and Grid-S1, with a thermistor PTC47R connected in series at each terminal.
[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are two multi-pole relays 18, which are defined as the first multi-pole relay 181 and the second multi-pole relay 182.
[0039] The first switching element 184 of the first multi-pole relay 181 is connected to the first end of the switching unit 15, one end of the first switching element 184 of the second multi-pole relay 182 is connected to the first switching element 184 of the first multi-pole relay 181, and the other end of the first switching element 184 of the second multi-pole relay 182 is connected to the second end of the switching unit 15.
[0040] The second switch 185 of the first multi-pole relay 181 is connected to the third terminal of the switch unit 15. One end of the second switch 185 of the second multi-pole relay 182 is connected to the second switch 185 of the first multi-pole relay 181, and the other end of the second switch 185 of the second multi-pole relay 182 is connected to the fourth terminal of the switch unit 15.
[0041] The driving element 183 of the first multi-pole relay 181 and the driving element 183 of the second multi-pole relay 182 are both connected to the first pole of the first switching transistor Q1.
[0042] Two multi-pole relays 18 are connected in series, connecting together when needed and disconnecting together when needed. Assuming the first multi-pole relay 181 fails, the second multi-pole relay 182 can continue to operate, ensuring safety. In this embodiment, the multi-pole relays 18 are preferably normally closed relays.
[0043] Example 3
[0044] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 2, such as... Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment also includes a surge protection unit 16; the DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 includes a first DC output terminal and a second DC output terminal; the first DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 is connected to the positive bus of the DC bus 14 through a first unidirectional conduction unit 17; the second DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 is connected to the negative bus of the DC bus 14; the first end of the surge protection unit 16 is connected to the first DC output terminal, and the second end of the surge protection unit 16 is connected to the second DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11.
[0045] The surge protection unit 16 includes a third resistor R3, a fourth resistor R4, a first capacitor C1, and a second capacitor C2. The first end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the first DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11, the second end of the third resistor R3 is connected to the first end of the fourth resistor R4, and the second end of the fourth resistor R4 is connected to the second DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11. The first end of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the first DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11, the second end of the first capacitor C1 is connected to the first end of the second capacitor C2 and the second end of the first resistor R1, and the second end of the second capacitor C2 is connected to the second DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11. The first DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11 is connected to the first switch 184 through a first unidirectional conduction unit 17, which is a third diode D3. The anode of the third diode D3 is connected to the first terminal of the first switch 184, and the cathode of the third diode D3 is connected to the first DC output terminal of the full-wave rectifier unit 11.
[0046] The surge protection unit 16 absorbs instantaneous voltage spikes generated by rectification commutation, power grid fluctuations, or switching actions in the circuit, suppressing voltage oscillations and reducing the voltage change rate, thus protecting downstream circuits from surge impacts. The third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4 are both varistors. When the first unidirectional conduction unit 17 is turned off or the switching unit 15 is opened, the two-phase line voltages of the power grid remain normal and do not exceed the varistor voltage values of the third resistor R3 and the fourth resistor R4, effectively making them an open circuit. The full-wave rectifier unit 11 also no longer receives voltage from the power grid, thus protecting and starting the auxiliary power supply circuit.
[0047] Example 4
[0048] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2, or Embodiment 3, such as... Figure 5 As shown, there are two full-wave rectifier units 11, which are defined as the first full-wave rectifier unit 111 and the second full-wave rectifier unit 112, respectively; there are two half-wave rectifier units 12, which are defined as the first half-wave rectifier unit 121 and the second half-wave rectifier unit 122, respectively; and there are two AC sources 13 for starting the auxiliary power supply circuit, which are defined as the first AC source 131 and the second AC source 132, respectively.
[0049] The AC input terminal of the first full-wave rectifier unit 111 is connected to the first AC source 131 of the auxiliary power supply circuit through the first half-wave rectifier unit 121; the AC input terminal of the second full-wave rectifier unit 112 is connected to the second AC source 132 of the auxiliary power supply circuit through the second half-wave rectifier unit 122; the first DC output terminal of the first full-wave rectifier unit 111 is connected to the first DC output terminal of the second full-wave rectifier unit 112; the second DC output terminal of the first full-wave rectifier unit 111 is connected to the second DC output terminal of the second full-wave rectifier unit 112.

[0051] The first AC source 131 can come from the power grid, such as... Figure 5 In Grid-R1 and Grid-S1, the second AC source 132 can come from a generator, such as... Figure 5GEN-R and GEN-S, or the first AC source 131 and the second AC source 132, can both be derived from the power grid, such as from Grid-R1 and Grid-S1. When the amplitude and phase of the outputs of the first AC source 131 and the second AC source 132 are consistent, the charging speed of the bus capacitor can be accelerated, and the stress on the bus capacitors of the first full-wave rectifier unit 111, the second full-wave rectifier unit 112, and the DC bus 14 can be reduced.
[0052] Furthermore, the conduction direction of the first half-wave rectifier unit 121 is opposite to that of the second half-wave rectifier unit 122, that is, the voltage output by the first AC source 131 takes the positive half-cycle, and the voltage output by the second AC source 132 takes the negative half-cycle. In this way, for the bus capacitor, it is equivalent to receiving the voltage output after full-wave rectification, and the influence of peak current is almost eliminated, and the charging is more stable.
[0053] Example 5
[0054] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2, Embodiment 3, or Embodiment 4, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the photovoltaic inverter can be connected to a battery and can switch between grid-connected and off-grid operation. Power is required to start the device. If the inverter operates off-grid, it draws power from the battery. The battery's own voltage is only a few tens of volts. However, the energy storage photovoltaic inverter has numerous internal components, and starting it requires high power. If driven directly by the battery voltage, the required current would be large, causing significant damage to the battery and the internal components of the inverter. Therefore, the battery voltage needs to be boosted from tens of volts to around 200 volts, thus requiring less current. It is worth noting that because the DC bus 14 has a large number of bus capacitors, the boosted voltage is not high. Therefore, initially, the battery power supply will not charge the DC bus 14; otherwise, it would lead to undervoltage and unstable power supply to the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter. At this time, the battery power supply is used to start the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter, especially to start the driver board with its topology. When the driver board starts working, it can draw power from the battery, the grid, or the photovoltaic modules to charge the bus capacitor of DC bus 14 until the voltage of DC bus 14 rises to the required voltage. Afterward, the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter can be powered by DC bus 14. However, existing solutions all draw power separately, actively selecting the auxiliary power source through a chip. This requires additional circuitry, increasing costs and hindering cost reduction and space-saving improvements.
[0055] Therefore, as Figure 6As shown, this embodiment describes a power supply circuit for a photovoltaic inverter, including a first auxiliary power supply circuit 2, a second auxiliary power supply circuit 1, and a voltage conversion circuit 3. The second auxiliary power supply circuit 1 is the startup auxiliary power supply circuit of Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2, Embodiment 3, or Embodiment 4. The input terminal of the first auxiliary power supply circuit 2 receives the battery voltage, and the output terminal of the first auxiliary power supply circuit 2 is connected to the input terminal of the voltage conversion circuit 3 through the second unidirectional conduction unit 4. The first auxiliary power supply circuit 2 is used to convert the battery voltage into a second supply voltage. The second auxiliary power supply circuit 1 is used to output the first supply voltage to the DC bus 14. The DC bus 14 is connected to the input terminal of the voltage conversion circuit 3 through the third unidirectional conduction unit 5. When the second supply voltage is greater than the bus voltage of the DC bus 14, the second unidirectional conduction unit 4 is turned on and the third unidirectional conduction unit 5 is turned off. The voltage conversion circuit 3 converts the second supply voltage into a supply voltage for one or more devices and outputs it. When the bus voltage of the DC bus 14 is greater than the second supply voltage, the second unidirectional conduction unit 4 is turned off and the third unidirectional conduction unit 5 is turned on. The voltage conversion circuit 3 converts the bus voltage of the DC bus 14 into a supply voltage for one or more devices and outputs it to supply power to the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter.
[0056] The first auxiliary power circuit 2 boosts the battery voltage from tens of volts to approximately 200 volts, meaning the second supply voltage is approximately 200 volts. In this embodiment, the photovoltaic inverter is started collaboratively by the first auxiliary power circuit 2 and the startup auxiliary power circuit. Specifically, if the grid connection fails and the DC bus 14 has no voltage, the second unidirectional conduction unit 4 conducts, and the third unidirectional conduction unit 5 is cut off to prevent the second supply voltage from flowing back into the DC bus 14. At this time, the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter are powered by the battery. If the grid connection is successful, even if the photovoltaic inverter's drive board has not yet started, the voltage on the DC bus 14 will exceed the second supply voltage. In this case, the second unidirectional conduction unit 4 is cut off to prevent the DC bus 14 voltage from flowing back into the first auxiliary power circuit 2, and the third unidirectional conduction unit 5 is conducted. At this time, the internal components of the photovoltaic inverter are powered by the grid. Unlike the startup auxiliary power circuit, the first auxiliary power circuit 2 is always running and operating. If the DC bus 14 experiences an abnormality and the voltage abnormally drops below the second supply voltage, the second unidirectional conduction unit 4 conducts, and the third unidirectional conduction unit 5 is cut off. The photovoltaic inverter is continuously powered by the battery, ensuring its stable operation and enhancing the stability of the entire photovoltaic system.
[0057] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the first auxiliary power supply circuit 2 includes a voltage detection circuit 21 and a first flyback circuit 22. The voltage detection circuit 21 outputs a feedback signal to the first flyback circuit 22 when the battery voltage is less than a first threshold. The input terminal of the first flyback circuit 22 is connected to the input terminal of the first auxiliary power supply circuit 2, and the output terminal of the first flyback circuit 22 is connected to the output terminal of the first auxiliary power supply circuit 2. The first flyback circuit 22 converts the battery voltage into a second supply voltage, and stops converting the battery voltage into the second supply voltage when a low-voltage signal is received. The voltage detection circuit 21 detects... Figure 7 The voltage of the VCCB in the first flyback circuit 22 is divided and compared with the voltage of the TL431. VCCB is the battery voltage after electromagnetic interference filtering, and TL431 is a controllable precision voltage regulator. If the voltage after VCCB division is less than the first threshold of 2.5V set by TL431, the COMP terminal of the flyback chip in the first flyback circuit 22 will receive a low-level feedback signal. The first flyback circuit 22 will then output a low-level pulse signal, thus preventing it from converting the battery voltage to the second supply voltage, thereby protecting the battery. Other methods, such as a comparator, can also be used for comparison. The principle of how the first flyback circuit 22 converts the battery voltage to the second supply voltage is existing technology and will not be elaborated in this embodiment.
[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, the voltage conversion circuit 3 includes a transformer 31, a second switching transistor Q2, a pulse control circuit 32, a feedback circuit 33, and a voltage divider circuit 34.
[0059] The transformer 31 has a primary winding and multiple secondary windings. The first end of the primary winding is connected to the input end of the voltage conversion circuit 3, and the multiple secondary windings output the device supply voltage respectively. The first terminal of the second switching transistor Q2 is connected to the second end of the primary winding of the transformer 31.
[0060] The pulse signal output terminal of the pulse control circuit 32 is connected to the control electrode of the second switching transistor Q2, and the pulse control circuit 32 and the second electrode of the second switching transistor Q2 share a common ground. The pulse control circuit 32 is used to output a pulse signal and control the second switching transistor Q2 to turn on or off, so as to control the conversion of electrical energy received at the input terminal of the voltage conversion circuit 3 from the primary winding to the secondary winding of the transformer 31. The input terminal of the feedback circuit 33 receives the supply voltage of a device, such as... Figure 8 The POWER_H+12V in the circuit is connected to the feedback signal terminal of the pulse control circuit 32 and outputs a feedback signal. The pulse control circuit 32 adjusts the duty cycle of the pulse signal according to the feedback signal.
[0061] Voltage divider circuit 34 is used to divide the voltage when pulse control circuit 32 is started, so as to provide a start-up voltage for pulse control circuit 32. Voltage divider circuit 34 includes a first voltage divider branch 341 and a second voltage divider branch 342. The first end of the first voltage divider branch 341 is connected to the primary winding of transformer 31, and the second end of the first voltage divider branch 341 is connected to the start-up voltage power supply terminal of pulse control circuit 32. The first voltage divider branch 341 includes at least two first voltage divider units connected in series, and each first voltage divider unit includes at least two resistors connected in parallel. The first end of the second voltage divider branch 342 is connected to the start-up voltage power supply terminal of pulse control circuit 32, and the second end of the second voltage divider branch 342 is grounded. The second voltage divider branch 342 includes at least two second voltage divider units connected in series, and each second voltage divider unit includes at least two resistors connected in parallel.
[0062] The control chip of the pulse control circuit 32 is ICE3BS03LJG. The internal startup unit of the chip is used to power the chip's VCC. Therefore, the chip's startup voltage power supply terminal HV needs to receive a large voltage for high-voltage startup. The voltage divider circuit 34 is used to divide the voltage when the pulse control circuit 32 starts up to provide the control chip with a suitable startup voltage. The resistor network of the first voltage divider branch 341 and the second voltage divider branch 342 of the voltage divider circuit 34 is used to facilitate heat dissipation.
