[0049] The power module fan fault detection system of the utility model is implemented, the first group of adapter ports of the adapter terminal is connected with the line group of the first fan, and the second group of adapter ports is connected with the line group of the second fan; the first group of adapter ports of the adapter terminal is in communication with the third group of adapter ports, and the second group of adapter ports is in communication with the fourth group of adapter ports; the power supply device and the PWM control device are used for supplying power and providing a PWM control signal to the first fan and the second fan respectively, then the fault detection device is connected with the third group of adapter ports and the fourth group of adapter ports of the adapter terminal, since the power supply device and the PWM control device control the fan to work, when the fan fails, the fault of the first fan and the second fan can be automatically detected directly through the fault detection device, and the power module is prevented from being damaged due to the fan failure.

[0050] In the preferred embodiment of the utility model, the fault detection device comprises a current detection device and a voltage detection device; the current detection device is connected between the third group of adapter ports and the fourth group of adapter ports of the adapter terminal, for detecting the first fault of the first fan and the second fan; and the voltage detection device is connected between the third group of adapter ports and the fourth group of adapter ports of the adapter terminal, for detecting the second fault of the first fan and the second fan.

[0051] The skilled in the art know that the line group of the fan includes a power line, an RD alarm line, a PWM signal line and a ground line. When the power line is open or short circuit failure, the fan does not rotate. When the RD alarm line is open failure, the fan continues to alarm, and when the RD alarm line is short circuit failure, the fan does not alarm. When the PWM signal line is short circuit, the fan does not rotate, and when the PWM signal line is open, the fan rotates full.

When the power line is open or short circuit failure, the current of the corresponding power port is 0, and when the RD alarm line is normal, the corresponding RD port is low, and when the RD alarm line is failure, the corresponding RD port is high.

[0052] Therefore, by detecting the power interface in the third group of switching ports corresponding to the first fan through the current detection device, whether the first fan has a power failure can be determined. Similarly, by detecting the power interface in the fourth group of switching ports corresponding to the second fan through the current detection device, whether the second fan has a power failure can be determined.

[0057] The fault detection device 200 comprises a current detection device and a voltage detection device. The current detection device comprises a first current detection module A1 and a second current detection module A2. Here, the first current detection module A1 and the second current detection module A2 can adopt any device capable of current detection, such as an ammeter, a multimeter, a current detection chip or a module. The first current detection module A1 is connected between the positive pole of the power supply device 400 and the third power supply port VCC3, for detecting the first type of fault of the first fan 310. The second current detection module A2 is connected between the positive pole of the power supply device 400 and the fourth power supply port VCC4, for detecting the first type of fault of the second fan 320, i.e. open circuit or short circuit of the power supply line. That is, as described above, when the power supply line is in open circuit or short circuit fault, the current of the corresponding port is 0, so when the current detected by the first current detection module A1 and / or the second current detection module A2 is 0, it can be determined that the first fan 310 and / or the second fan 320 has a power supply line fault during connection to the adapter port.

[0058] Similarly, the voltage detection device comprises a first voltage detection module V1 and a second voltage detection module V2. Here, the first voltage detection module V1 and the second voltage detection module V2 can also adopt any device capable of voltage detection, such as a voltmeter, a multimeter, a voltage detection chip or a module.

As described above, when the RD alarm line is normal, the corresponding port is low, and when it is failed, it is high. Therefore, when the first voltage detection module V1 and / or the second voltage detection module V2 detects a high voltage, it can be determined that the first fan 310 and / or the second fan 320 has an RD line fault during connection to the adapter port.

[0059] Therefore, the power module fan fault detection system of the utility model can detect the fault of the fan assembly composed of two fans before the fan is installed in the power module, and can simultaneously detect the power failure and the RD line failure of the two fans, preventing the fan assembly from being difficult to disassemble or even damaged by the power module fan failure after being installed in the power module.
