[0002] The common technologies used in the domestic and international markets for starting large-tonnage intermediate frequency (IF) induction melting furnaces include fixed-angle starting, impact starting, and frequency sweep starting. For large-tonnage IF equipment, the impedance matching between the main circuit capacitor and the induction coil is crucial; all three starting methods with high matching can effectively start the IF equipment. However, under light or heavy load conditions, starting large-tonnage IF equipment becomes difficult, and sometimes it cannot be started at all.

In order to solve this technical problem, this application uses inverter voltage to detect load impedance changes. By detecting the main circuit resonant waveform and comparing it with the set parameters, the microcontroller program adjusts and calculates a suitable startup trigger pulse, thereby ensuring that the startup of the equipment is not affected by the main circuit impedance changes, and ensuring the normal production of large-tonnage intermediate frequency equipment.

[0021] The workflow of an automatic assisted start-up system for intermediate frequency equipment in this embodiment is as follows: This application uses a sampling and detection unit to sample the impedance signal of the main circuit of the equipment in real time. After processing by a signal processing circuit, a pulse signal is output to the processor. The processor compares the received pulse signal with preset parameters and controls the operation of the actuator based on the comparison result. The actuator controls the on / off state of the main circuit. When the pulse signal matches the preset parameters, the processor controls the main circuit to conduct through the actuator, thus ensuring the operation of large-tonnage intermediate frequency equipment during startup and eliminating the startup difficulties caused by poor impedance matching in intermediate frequency equipment. The power supply status of the circuit on the sampling and detection unit is displayed by setting LEDs D1 and D2. When the power is turned on, LEDs D1 and D2 are turned on and lit up.

[0022] This embodiment illustrates the working principle of an automatic auxiliary start-up system for intermediate frequency (IF) equipment proposed in this application. The processor uses a microcontroller and a sampling detection unit to sample the impedance matching parameters of the main circuit of the equipment in real time. The processor analyzes the required start-up voltage and angle. At the moment of equipment startup, the main circuit is pre-charged. By detecting the resonant waveform of the main circuit and comparing it with the set parameters, the microcontroller program adjusts and calculates a suitable start-up trigger pulse. The system then begins frequency sweep startup. With the assistance of the automatic auxiliary start-up system, the IF equipment can start 100% even when the impedance matching of the main circuit is very low. This ensures that the startup of the equipment is not affected by changes in the main circuit impedance, guaranteeing the normal production of the IF equipment.

[0023] Based on its characteristics, we understand that the automatic auxiliary start-up system for this intermediate frequency equipment requires the initial development of an algorithm program and appropriate trigger pulse signals using a high-performance microcontroller. The algorithm program blocks have evolved from single sampling to multi-point sampling combined signals, and the pulse signals have evolved from a 20µs single narrow pulse signal to a 70µs double wide pulse signal. These were all achieved through continuous on-site exploration and adjustments to meet the customer's production requirement of a 100% start-up success rate for the intermediate frequency equipment.
