Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sensor control technology, specifically a control circuit for a roller yarn breakage sensor. Background Technology
[0002] During the spinning and yarn finishing processes of textile machinery, yarn breakage can occur due to various reasons. Operators need to take timely measures to reconnect the yarn; otherwise, it will result in a large amount of scrap and wasted energy from idle equipment operation. Therefore, yarn breakage detection devices are installed on the equipment to detect yarn breakage. Based on their working principle, common yarn breakage detection devices include photoelectric yarn breakage detection and gravity yarn breakage detection. However, photoelectric yarn breakage detection is sensitive to environmental factors and yarn type, making it prone to false detections, while gravity yarn breakage detection lacks accuracy.
[0003] Photoelectric yarn breakage detection requires a photoelectric sensor to detect yarn breakage. The control circuit of the roller yarn breakage sensor is the core of the sensor's function, needing to enable the light to turn off when the roller rotates and turn on when the roller stops. Furthermore, it must be adaptable to different speeds. For example, the control circuit of the yarn breakage detection device disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 203320209 U mentions that "it can accurately transmit information such as the yarn breakage location number, yarn breakage time, and reconnection time to the main control board of the twisting machine head. The main control board controls and displays the accurate yarn breakage location, allowing wiring personnel to directly locate the yarn breakage location for reconnection without repeated patrols." Its specific structure is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, roller yarn breakage sensors on the market often use MCU control, which is costly, and fluctuations in the field voltage can easily cause the MCU to restart.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model provides a control circuit for a roller yarn breakage sensor, and the technical solution is as follows:
[0022] A control circuit for a roller yarn breakage sensor includes a power supply circuit. The power supply circuit includes a capacitor C1, a diode D1, and a voltage regulator circuit connected to the capacitor C1. The voltage regulator circuit includes a transistor Q1 connected to the capacitor C1, a diode D2 connected in series with the transistor Q1, and a capacitor C2 connected in parallel with the transistor Q1 and diode D2. Diode D1 provides 24V reverse connection protection. The voltage regulator circuit composed of transistor Q1 and 9.1V voltage regulator diode D2 is simple and effective in design, meets the requirements of this product, and is low in cost. The measured VCC≈8.4V. A switch S1 is provided so that the sensor can be turned off by disconnecting the power supply.
[0023] The Hall signal conditioning circuit includes a Hall element U1, which is connected to a pull-up resistor R2, a voltage divider resistor R3, and a differentiating circuit. The differentiating circuit includes a capacitor C3 and a resistor R4 connected to the Hall element U1. The resistor R4 is connected to a current-limiting resistor R5. The Hall element U1 outputs a magnetic induction signal. The pulse signal outputs a low level when the magnetic pole is close and a high level when the magnetic pole is far away. The pull-up resistor R2 and the voltage divider resistor R3 ensure that the high level is stable at about 3.8V. The differentiating circuit composed of capacitor C3 and resistor R4 converts the pulse signal output by the Hall element U1 into a differential signal.
[0024] An integral control circuit includes a current-limiting resistor R5, one end of which is connected to the base of transistor Q2. Transistor Q2 is connected to capacitor C4 and resistor R6. The signal generated by Hall element U1 controls the base of transistor Q2 through the current-limiting resistor R5. Capacitor C4 and resistor R6 form an integral circuit. When the roller rotates, transistor Q2 is turned on, and capacitor C4 discharges. When the roller stops rotating, transistor Q2 is turned off, and VCC charges capacitor C4 through resistor R6.
[0025] A threshold detection circuit includes a transistor Q3 connected to capacitor C4. Transistor Q3 is connected to resistors R7, R8, and R9. Resistor R9 is connected in series with transistor Q4. LED diode D3 and LED current-limiting resistor R10 are connected to transistor Q4. Transistor Q4 is connected to connector P1 via diode D4. Connector P1 is connected to a power supply circuit. The base of transistor Q3 directly monitors the voltage across capacitor C4. When the roller stops, capacitor C4 is charged, causing the base voltage of transistor Q3 to reach above 0.7V, turning on transistor Q3. Due to the voltage division between resistors R7 and R8, the base voltage of transistor Q4 is greater than 0.7V, turning on transistor Q4 and lighting the LED. When the roller rotates, capacitor C4 discharges, causing the base voltage of transistor Q3 to fall below 0.7V, turning off transistor Q3. The base voltage of transistor Q4 also falls below 0.7V, turning off transistor Q4 and turning off the LED. Transistor Q4 is a switching transistor, resistor R9 is a base current-limiting resistor, and resistor R10 is an LED current-limiting resistor.
