The main oscillator circuit 102 includes a first transformer 102A and a second transformer 102B.

[0038] In FIG1 , the power supply terminal of the H-bridge circuit 101 is connected to the positive electrode of the DC power supply, and the ground terminal of the H-bridge circuit 101 is connected to the negative electrode of the DC power supply; the first output terminal L of the H-bridge circuit 101 is connected to the first terminal of the first transformer 102A, the second terminal of the first transformer 102A is connected to the first terminal of the second transformer 102B, and the second terminal of the second transformer 102B is connected to the second output terminal R of the H-bridge circuit 101; the third terminal of the first transformer 102A is connected to the first terminal of the load circuit 104, the fourth terminal of the first transformer 102A is connected to the fourth terminal of the second transformer 102B, and the second terminal of the second transformer 102B is connected to the second output terminal R of the H-bridge circuit 101; The third end of the transformer 102B is connected to the second end of the load circuit 104, and the fourth end of the second transformer 102B is connected to the third end of the load circuit 104. The sampling control circuit 103 is connected to the H-bridge circuit 101 and the load circuit 104, respectively, and is used to drive the H-bridge circuit 101 and the load circuit 104 so that the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B are alternately in the forward state and the flyback state, respectively, so that the direct current between the positive and negative poles of the direct current power supply is inverted into alternating current and output from the first output electrode PVa and the second output electrode PVb of the load circuit 104.

[0039] The first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B alternate between forward and flyback states, respectively.

The circuit operates cyclically according to a preset operating mode; and according to the pulse power timing output to the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B, the gate G pins corresponding to the fifth switch 401, the sixth switch 402, the seventh switch 403, and the eighth switch 404 are synchronously controlled. When the dual-transformer series alternating inverter circuit operates cyclically, the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B operate alternately in forward and flyback conditions, ensuring that the first switch 301, the second switch 302, the third switch 303, the fourth switch 304, the fifth switch 401, the sixth switch 402, the seventh switch 403, and the eighth switch 404 all operate in a conductive state when their respective body diodes are in forward conduction.

[0047] In the above process, the preset working modes include working mode 1, working mode 2, working mode 3, working mode 4, working mode 5, working mode 6, working mode 7, and working mode 8.

[0048] Optionally, the first working mode is: the first switch tube 301 and the fourth switch tube 304 are in the on state, and the second switch tube 302 and the third switch tube 303 are in the off state;

[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402 function as one switch group, and the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 function as another switch group. These two switch groups cannot be turned on or off simultaneously. Specifically, when the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402 are turned on, the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 are turned off. When the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402 are turned off, the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 are turned on.

[0050] Based on this, in operating mode 1, the DC power supply charges the main oscillator circuit 102 via the first switch 301 and the fourth switch 304. The current flows sequentially from the first end of the first transformer 102A, to the second end of the first transformer 102A, to the first end of the resonant capacitor 201, to the second end of the resonant capacitor 201, to the first end of the second transformer 102B, and finally to the second end of the second transformer 102B. At this time, if the fifth switch 401 and the sixth switch 402 are off, the first transformer 102A is in a flyback state. Since the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402, and the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 cannot be turned on or off simultaneously, the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 are turned on, and the second transformer 102B is in a forward state. Power is then output to the load circuit 104 via the second transformer 102B. Similarly, if the fifth and sixth switching transistors 401 and 402 are in the on-state, the first transformer 102A is in the forward state, and power is output to the load circuit through the first transformer. At this time, since the fifth and sixth switching transistors 401 and 402, and the seventh and eighth switching transistors 403 and 404 cannot be turned on or off at the same time, the seventh and eighth switching transistors 403 and 404 are in the off-state, and the second transformer 102B is in the flyback state. When the fifth and sixth switching transistors 401 and 402 are in the on-state, the first output electrode PVa has a positive voltage; when the seventh and eighth switching transistors 403 and 404 are in the on-state, the second output electrode PVb has a positive voltage.

[0051] Optionally, working mode two is: the first switch tube 301 changes from the on state to the off state, the fourth switch tube 304 remains in the on state, and the second switch tube 302 and the third switch tube 303 remain in the off state; in working mode two, the primary inductance freewheeling characteristics of the transformer in the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B that is in the flyback state in working mode one causes the body diode of the third switch tube 303 to pass current and be turned on, and the third switch tube 303 is turned on when the voltage drop between the drain pin D and the source pin S is equal to the forward voltage drop of the body diode of the third switch tube 303. At this time, the third switch tube 303 changes from the off state to the on state, reducing the freewheeling loss of the body diode of the third switch tube 303, and entering working mode three.

[0052] Optionally, working mode three is: the third switch tube 303 and the fourth switch tube 304 are in the on state, and the first switch tube 301 and the second switch tube 302 remain in the off state; in working mode three, the resonant current of the main oscillation circuit 102 forms a closed loop through the third switch tube 303 and the fourth switch tube 304.

[0053] Optionally, working mode four is: the fourth switch tube 304 changes from the on state to the off state, the third switch tube 303 remains in the on state, and the first switch tube 301 and the second switch tube 302 remain in the off state; in working mode four, the freewheeling characteristics of the primary inductance of the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B cause the body diode of the second switch tube 302 to conduct and freewheel, and the second switch tube 302 is conducted when the voltage drop between the drain pin D and the source pin S is equal to the forward voltage drop of the body diode of the second switch tube 302. At this time, the second switch tube 302 changes from the off state to the on state, reducing the freewheeling loss of the body diode of the second switch tube 302, and entering working mode five.

[0054] Optionally, working mode five is: the second switch tube 302 and the third switch tube 303 are in the on state, and the first switch tube 301 and the fourth switch tube 304 remain in the off state; in working mode five, the DC power supply charges the main oscillation circuit 102 through the second switch tube 302 and the third switch tube 303, and the current flows to: the second end of the second transformer 102B, the first end of the second transformer 102B, the second end of the resonant capacitor 201, the first end of the resonant capacitor 201, the second end of the first transformer 102A, and the first end of the second transformer 102A. At this time, if the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402 are in the off state, the first transformer 102A is in the flyback state, and because the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402 and the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 cannot be turned on or off at the same time, the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 are in the on state, the second transformer 102B is in the forward state, and power is output to the load circuit 104 through the second transformer 102B. Similarly, if the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402 are in the on-state, the first transformer 102A is in the forward state, and power is output to the load circuit through the first transformer 102A. Since the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402, and the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 cannot be turned on or off at the same time, the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 are in the off-state, and the second transformer 102B is in the flyback state. When the fifth and sixth switches 401 and 402 are in the on-state, the first output electrode PVa has a negative voltage; when the seventh and eighth switches 403 and 404 are in the on-state, the second output electrode PVb has a negative voltage.

[0055] Optionally, working mode six is: the third switch tube 303 changes from the on state to the off state, the second switch tube 302 remains in the off state, and the first switch tube 301 and the fourth switch tube 304 remain in the off state; in working mode six, the freewheeling characteristics of the primary inductance of the transformer in the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B that is in the flyback state in the previous working mode cause the body diode of the first switch tube 301 to conduct and freewheel, and the first switch tube 301 is turned on when the voltage between the drain pin D and the source pin S is equal to the forward voltage of the body diode of the first switch tube 301, thereby reducing the freewheeling loss of the body diode of the first switch tube 301, and entering the said working mode seven.

[0056] Optionally, working mode seven is: the first switch tube 301 and the second switch tube 302 are in the on state, and the third switch tube 303 and the fourth switch tube 304 remain in the off state; in working mode seven, the resonant current of the main oscillation circuit 102 forms a closed loop through the first switch tube 301 and the second switch tube 302.

[0057] Optionally, working mode eight is: the second switch tube 302 changes from the on state to the off state, the first switch tube 301 remains in the on state, and the third switch tube 303 and the fourth switch tube 304 remain in the off state; in working mode eight, the freewheeling characteristics of the primary inductance in the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B cause the body diode of the fourth switch tube 304 to conduct and freewheel, wherein, when the voltage between the drain pin D and the source pin S of the fourth switch tube 304 is in a zero voltage state, the body diode of the fourth switch tube 304 is forward-conducted, reducing the freewheeling loss of the body diode of the fourth switch tube 304, and entering working mode one.

[0058] The aforementioned operating modes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are cycled sequentially, with each cycle forming a power transmission cycle. This inverts DC power into AC power and ensures efficient power transmission. During this process, each switch operates in a state where the voltage Vds between the drain and source is zero, effectively reducing switching losses.

[0059] During this process, any of the first, second, third, fourth, and eighth switches 301, 302, 303, 304, 401, 402, 403, and 404 switches always operate in the zero-crossing conduction state, ensuring the lowest-loss turn-on condition and minimizing the current ringing amplitude at the moment of turn-on, significantly reducing radiated interference. Furthermore, by adjusting the dead time, the switch that is about to be turned on in the oscillation loop is controlled to enter the zero-crossing switching state.

[0060] In the above circuit, the sampling control circuit 103 is further configured to adjust the conduction timing of the fifth switching transistor 401, the sixth switching transistor 402, the seventh switching transistor 403, and the eighth switching transistor 404, so that the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B operate alternately in flyback and forward modes. Specifically, when the first transformer 102A is in the flyback mode, the second transformer 102B is in the forward mode; and when the first transformer 102A is in the flyback mode, the second transformer 102B is in the forward mode. The first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B both alternate between the flyback and forward modes. During this process, the first switching tube 301, the second switching tube 302, the third switching tube 303, and the fourth switching tube 304 cooperate to ensure that the main oscillation circuit 102 is in a fully resonant state when operating. Specifically, when the first transformer 102A is in a forward state, the second transformer 102B is in a flyback state; when the first transformer 102A is in a flyback state, the second transformer 102B is in a forward state. The fully resonant state is achieved by the primary inductance and resonant capacitance of the first transformer 102A or the second transformer 102B in the flyback state, and the transformer in the forward state of the first transformer 102A or the second transformer 102B is used to transfer power.

[0061] Optionally, the sampling control circuit 103 is further configured to control the on and off states of the fifth switching tube 401, the sixth switching tube 402, the seventh switching tube 403, and the eighth switching tube 404, so that the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B alternately operate in a forward state and a flyback state; wherein, when the fifth switching tube 401 and the sixth switching tube 402 are on, and the seventh switching tube 403 and the eighth switching tube 404 are off, the first transformer 102A is in a forward state to provide power, and the second transformer 102B is in a flyback state, the magnetic core is energized, and participates in resonance; when the fifth switching tube 401 and the sixth switching tube 402 are off, and the seventh switching tube 403 and the eighth switching tube 404 are on, the second transformer 102B is in a forward state to provide power, and the first transformer 102A is in a flyback state, the magnetic core is energized, and participates in oscillation; when either the first transformer 102A or the second transformer 102B is in the flyback state, resonance occurs between the primary inductance and the resonant capacitor of the transformer.

[0062] In a possible embodiment, when the primary inductance of the transformer in the flyback state in the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B oscillates with the resonant capacitor, the sampling control circuit 103 controls the on-pulse width, PWM period, dead time, and phase timing of the gate G pins of the first switching transistor 301, the second switching transistor 302, the third switching transistor 303, and the fourth switching transistor 304, respectively, so that the first switching transistor 301, the second switching transistor 302, the third switching transistor 303, and the fourth switching transistor 304 are all in the on-state when their body diodes are conducting, and the main oscillation circuit is in a fully resonant state.

[0063] In a possible embodiment, when the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402 are in the on state and the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 are in the off state, the first transformer 102A is in the forward state, and the output power current charges the first capacitor 405 through the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402; when the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402 are in the off state and the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 are in the on state, the second transformer 102B is in the forward state, and the output power current charges the second capacitor 406 through the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404.

[0064] In normal operating conditions, the switching timing of the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth switches 401, 402, 403, and 404 is consistent with the output pulse of the forward transformer. When the conduction period of the fifth and sixth switches 401, 402 is consistent with the conduction period of the first and fourth switches 301, 304, the voltage of the first output electrode PVA is greater than the voltage of the second output electrode PVb, so that the output voltage and current waveforms of the load circuit 104 are in the positive half-cycle of the AC power. When the conduction period of the fifth and sixth switches 401, 402 is consistent with the conduction period of the second and third switches 402, 403, the voltage of the second output electrode PVb is greater than the voltage of the first output electrode PVA, so that the output voltage and current waveforms of the load circuit 104 are in the negative half-cycle of the AC power.

[0065] In one possible embodiment, when each of the fifth switch tube 401, the sixth switch tube 402, the seventh switch tube 403, and the eighth switch tube 404 is turned on, the tube voltage drop of the turned-on switch tube is clamped by the body diode of the switch tube, so that the switch tube is in the body diode forward conduction state each time it is turned on. As a result, the switch tube is turned on with a minimum surge current value under the control of the sampling control circuit, which greatly reduces the current ringing phenomenon when the switch tube is turned on and reduces the loss when the switch tube is turned on.

[0066] In one possible embodiment, oscillation energy is stored in the transformer in the flyback state of the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B, and the oscillation energy is transferred to the load circuit 104 in the next alternating cycle. That is, when the flyback state is switched to the forward state, the oscillation energy is transferred to the load circuit 104, thereby minimizing the oscillation loss of the first transformer 102A and the second transformer 102B. All power devices operate in an optimal ultra-low loss operating condition, so that the dual-transformer series alternating inverter circuit can achieve extremely high transmission efficiency and a transmission power that is more than 1.5 times that of a single transformer in the forward state.

[0067] In one possible embodiment, the first transformer 102A or the second transformer 102B operates in a forward state or a flyback state, and when the voltage of the first output electrode PVA is greater than the voltage of the second output electrode PVb, the sine wave output by the load circuit 104 is in a positive half-cycle, or when the voltage of the first output electrode is less than the voltage of the second output electrode, the sine wave output by the load circuit is in a negative half-cycle. Both of these are achieved by the fifth switch 401, the sixth switch 402, the seventh switch 403, and the eighth switch 404 coordinating with the timing of the first switch 301, the second switch 302, the third switch 303, and the fourth switch 304. The fifth switch 401 and the sixth switch 402, and the seventh switch 403 and the eighth switch 404 are sequentially turned on to achieve bidirectional synchronous rectification output characteristics, so that the output power of the first output electrode PVa and the second output electrode PVb exhibits fluctuation characteristics of at least one of a sine function waveform, an exponential function waveform, a square wave waveform, and a trigonometric function waveform according to the characteristics of pulse width modulation.

[0068] In a possible embodiment, when the potential of the first output electrode PVA is higher than the potential of the second output electrode PVA and the output AC voltage is in the positive half cycle, the conduction timing of the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402 is as follows: the fifth switch tube 401 is turned on first, and after the body diode of the sixth switch tube 402 is turned on, the sixth switch tube 402 is changed from the off state to the on state, so that the sixth switch tube operates in a state where the body diode between the drain and the source is forward-conducted and then turned on, and the first capacitor 405 does not have current backflow, and the fifth switch tube 401 that is turned on first operates at zero voltage zero The current state is turned on; when the potential of the first output electrode PVa is lower than the potential of the second output electrode PVb and the output AC voltage is in the negative half cycle, the conduction timing of the fifth switch tube 401 and the sixth switch tube 402 when they are turned on is: the sixth switch tube 402 is turned on first, and after the body diode of the fifth switch tube is turned on, the fifth switch tube 401 is changed from the off state to the on state, so that the fifth switch tube 401 works in the state of conduction when the drain and the source are in the forward direction, and the first capacitor 405 does not have current backflow, and the sixth switch tube 405 that is turned on first is turned on in the zero voltage and zero current state.

[0069] In a possible embodiment, when the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 are turned on, when the potential of the first output electrode Pva is higher than the potential of the second output electrode PVb and the output AC voltage is in the positive half cycle, the turn-on timing of the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 is as follows: the eighth switch tube 404 is turned on first, and after the body diode of the seventh switch tube 403 is turned on, the seventh switch tube 403 is changed from the off state to the on state, so that the seventh switch tube 403 enters the on state when the body diode forward voltage is reached between the drain and the source, and the second capacitor 406 does not have current backflow, and the eighth switch tube 404 that is turned on first is turned on first. 4 operates in a zero voltage and zero current state and is turned on; when the potential of the first output electrode Pva is lower than the potential of the second output electrode PVb and the output AC voltage is in a negative half cycle, the turn-on timing of the seventh switch tube 403 and the eighth switch tube 404 is as follows: the seventh switch tube 403 is turned on first, and after the body diode of the eighth switch tube 404 is turned on, the eighth switch tube 404 is changed from the off state to the on state, so that the eighth switch tube 404 operates in a conduction state when the voltage between the drain and the source is the forward voltage of the body diode, and the second capacitor 406 is prevented from having a current backflow, and the seventh switch tube 403 that is turned on first is turned on in the zero voltage and zero current state.

[0070] In a possible embodiment, the first switch tube 301, the second switch tube 302, the third switch tube 303, the fourth switch tube 304, the fifth switch tube 401, the sixth switch tube 402, the seventh switch tube 403, and the eighth switch tube 404 are all MOS switch tubes with body diodes; when the MOS switch tubes are replaced with IGBT switch tubes with body diodes, the collector C of the IGBT switch tube corresponds to the drain D of the MOS switch tube, and the emitter E of the IGBT switch tube corresponds to the source S of the MOS switch tube.

[0071] To further illustrate the technical solution of the present application, as shown in FIG6A or FIG6B, an example diagram of a dual-transformer series alternating inverter circuit provided in an embodiment of the present application is applicable to DC / AC power inverters and inverter-type electronic equipment, and is applied in the field of power electronics. The circuit includes an H-bridge circuit, a main oscillator circuit, a sampling control circuit, and a load circuit. The H-bridge circuit includes switch tubes S1, S2, S3, and S4; the main oscillator circuit includes transformer 1 T1, transformer 2 T2, and a resonant capacitor 201, which is composed of multiple small capacitors connected in parallel; the load circuit includes switch tubes S5, S6, S7, and S8, capacitors C1, and C2; the sampling control circuit collects the current and voltage signals of the dual-transformer series alternating inverter circuit through current sensors L1, L2, and L3.

[0072] In this circuit, the power supply VCC and common ground GND of the H-bridge circuit are connected to a DC power supply, and transformers T1 and T2 are arranged on both sides of the resonant capacitor, forming a symmetrical balanced design. The sampling control circuit collects current and voltage from current sensors L1, L2, L3, terminals 3 and 4 of transformer T1, terminal 3 of transformer T2, terminal 1 of capacitor C1, and terminals 1 and 2 of capacitor C2 to ensure that each switch operates within a safe current and voltage range. Specifically, according to the above-mentioned operating modes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, the first and second switching modes are cycled in sequence, so that transformers 1 and 2 alternate between forward and flyback states, thereby outputting AC power between electrodes Pva and PVb. Each cycle is a power transmission cycle, which converts DC power into AC power and effectively transmits power. During this process, each switch operates in a state where the voltage Vds between the drain and source is zero, effectively reducing switching losses.

[0073] In this circuit, the resonant capacitor, consisting of x small-capacity capacitors connected in parallel, effectively reduces the internal resistance of the capacitor, increases the current-carrying capacity of the series circuit, and thus improves the transmission efficiency of the main oscillator circuit. Furthermore, the resonant capacitor can be eliminated to meet the needs of high-power applications. Furthermore, since transformers 1 and 2 alternate between forward and flyback states, respectively, the power output of electrodes Pva and PVb is the sum of the powers of the two transformers, with no inductive energy loss, thereby improving power transfer efficiency and transmission power.
