[0030] It can be understood that the existing three-phase PFC rectifier has the advantages of large output power, high power factor, small total harmonic distortion, etc., can automatically adjust the input current of the port, thereby realizing current balance, minimizing the load current pulse, improving the utilization efficiency of physical load to power, reducing energy waste, and having more extensive application value in large-capacity and high-performance rectification applications. In the air conditioner with a three-phase Swiss PFC circuit topology, when the input voltage is 380V, the voltage stress of the single switch tube in the middle line injection circuit of the Swiss frequency converter will affect the selection of the device, which will greatly increase the cost of the electric control. The selection of the existing switch tube is a high-voltage IGBT switch tube with a withstand voltage exceeding 800V, which has low device packaging integration and high price, which is not conducive to the miniaturization and cost control of the electric control of the three-phase Swiss PFC air conditioner. At the same time, the three-phase PFC rectifier has problems such as complex main circuit structure and complex control method in actual application.

[0031] In order to ensure the reliability and stability of the power supply circuit while improving the efficiency and reducing the cost of the power supply circuit, the present application provides a power supply circuit, referring to FIG. 1, the power supply circuit comprises:

[0032] The Swiss conversion circuit 10 is used for converting alternating voltage into direct current voltage and outputting to the load;

[0033] The first voltage detection circuit 20 is connected between the Swiss conversion circuit 10, and the first voltage detection circuit 20 is used for detecting the alternating voltage input into the Swiss conversion circuit 10 and outputting a first voltage detection signal;

[0034] The second voltage detection circuit 30 is connected to the output end of the Swiss conversion circuit 10, and the second voltage detection circuit 30 is used for detecting the direct current voltage output by the Swiss conversion circuit 10 and outputting a second voltage detection signal;

[0035] The control circuit 40 is connected with the Swiss conversion circuit 10 and the voltage detection circuit respectively; the control circuit 40 is used for driving the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to work according to the first voltage detection signal and the second voltage detection signal when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is in the preset voltage range;

[0036] When the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 exceeds the preset voltage range, the control circuit 40 is used for driving the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to work according to the first voltage detection signal.

[0037] It can be understood that, with reference to the control signal and input and output schematic diagram of the conventional three-phase Swiss PFC circuit of FIG. 3, the existing three-phase Swiss PFC circuit control usually operates in a double closed-loop mode to ensure stable operation of the bus voltage and current. The maximum voltage stress between each pair of back-to-back switch tubes in the three-phase Swiss PFC circuit occurs at the position where the absolute value of each phase voltage is maximum, and the voltage size is 1.5 times the amplitude of the phase voltage. However, in actual operation, the maximum voltage stress between each pair of back-to-back switch tubes in the three-phase Swiss PFC circuit should also consider the bus voltage fluctuation and the bus inductance glitch when the switch tube is turned on and turned off. In order to further reduce the device cost of the entire three-phase Swiss PFC circuit and improve the reliability of the system, when the voltage stress of the switch tube reaches its threshold value, the present application proposes a power supply circuit, which sets the voltage stress value expected by the technician as the voltage threshold Vset in advance. When the pressure of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit is within the voltage threshold Vset, a double closed-loop mode control is adopted; when the pressure of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit exceeds the voltage threshold Vset, a voltage regulation mode control is adopted to adjust the switching state of each switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit, greatly reducing the absolute value of the maximum voltage stress that the switch tube can withstand, and at the same time adjusting the switching signal of the bus switch tube to keep the control loop stable.

[0038] It needs to be understood that, compared with low-voltage switch tubes, medium and high-voltage switch tubes can withstand higher voltage. In order to ensure safe and reliable operation, the breakdown voltage of the switch tube must be higher than the maximum working voltage in the application, and usually a certain safety margin is also required. In the air conditioner using the three-phase Swiss PFC circuit topology, 380V belongs to the medium and high voltage range, and the input voltage of 380V may need to select a switch tube with a voltage of 600V or even higher. High-voltage switch tubes usually have larger chip area and more complex structure, resulting in rising price cost. Therefore, when using high-voltage switch tubes with a voltage exceeding 800V, the price is higher than that of switch tubes used in 220V or lower voltage systems. In this way, high-voltage switch tubes not only have low integration, but also have high price, which is not conducive to the miniaturization and cost control of the electric control of the air conditioner. In order to solve the problems of high cost and low integration of switch tubes in the case of high-voltage input, the present application sets the switch tube in the power supply circuit as a low-voltage switch tube, and adjusts the duty ratio and switching condition of the switch tube in time when the voltage stress of the low-voltage switch tube reaches its threshold value, to reduce the burden of the switch tube with excessive voltage stress, avoid damaging the switch tube and other circuit modules, ensure the reliability and stability of the three-phase Swiss PFC circuit, improve the efficiency of the power supply circuit, and reduce the cost of the power supply circuit.

[0039] In addition, the voltage stress of the switch tube is usually the highest during the switching operation, especially at the moment of switching operation, due to the inductance, capacitance and parasitic effects in the power supply circuit, an excessively high voltage stress can be generated, which can cause damage to the switch tube and even damage to other circuit modules, thereby affecting the normal operation of the circuit module. In the embodiment, a voltage threshold Vset is provided, when the voltage stress value of the switch tube in the power supply circuit is within the range of the voltage threshold Vset, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 operates in a double closed loop mode; when the voltage threshold Vset of the switch tube in the power supply circuit, that is, the pressure borne by the switch tube exceeds the voltage threshold Vset, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 operates in a voltage regulation mode to adjust the switching state of each switch tube in the power supply circuit topology, greatly reducing the absolute value of the maximum voltage stress that can be borne by the switch tube, and at the same time the switching signal of the switch tube makes the control loop stable.

[0040] In actual application, when the control circuit 40 detects that the voltage stress of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is within the range of the voltage threshold Vset, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 operates in a double closed loop mode, which involves a voltage outer loop process and a current inner loop process. In the voltage outer loop process, the second voltage detection circuit 30 outputs the detected direct current voltage to the control circuit 40, the control circuit 40 compares the direct current voltage with the set reference voltage, and obtains an error voltage according to the comparison result, the control circuit 40 performs voltage conversion processing on the error voltage and outputs it as a reference setting value of the current inner loop. In the current inner loop process, the first voltage detection circuit 20 outputs the detected alternating current voltage to the control circuit 40, the control circuit 40 obtains the corresponding actual current after voltage conversion processing of the alternating current voltage, and compares the actual current with the current waveform corresponding to the reference setting value provided by the voltage outer loop, and obtains an error current according to the comparison result. The control circuit 40 outputs a duty cycle for adjusting the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 according to the error current, so that the actual current tracks the reference current waveform. For example, when the control circuit 40 determines that the actual current is lower than the reference current according to the error current, the on-time of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is increased; when the control circuit 40 determines that the actual current is higher than the reference current according to the error current, the on-time of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is reduced. Thus, the voltage outer loop and the current inner loop jointly act to enable the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to provide stable output voltage while achieving high power factor.

[0041] When the control circuit 40 detects that the voltage stress of the switch tube in the Swiss converter circuit 10 exceeds the voltage threshold Vset range through the first voltage detection circuit 20, the Swiss converter circuit 10 operates in the voltage regulation mode. In the voltage regulation mode, the control circuit 40 can reduce the excessive voltage stress by adjusting the duty cycle of the switch tube of the Swiss converter circuit. For example, the control circuit 40 can increase the duty cycle of other switch tubes to make more current pass through the other switch tubes, thereby reducing the current burden of the switch tube with excessive voltage stress. Thus, by adjusting the duty cycle of the switch tube, the current waveform can be improved to be closer to a sinusoidal wave, and the current harmonic can be reduced. The smoother current waveform helps to reduce the voltage stress of the switch tube during switching. Alternatively, the control circuit 40 can turn off all the switch tubes in the Swiss converter circuit 10 to cap the voltage stress across the switch tube in the Swiss converter circuit 10 at the voltage threshold Vset. Since all the switch tubes are turned off, the current path in the power supply circuit is cut off, and the current flowing through the switch tube is reduced to zero, thereby stopping further voltage stress accumulation and avoiding additional voltage stress due to switching action. For example, taking a three-phase four-wire 380V power supply as an example, theoretically, when the input voltage is below 264V, the maximum voltage that a single pair of switch tubes in the Swiss converter circuit 10 can withstand is 560V. Considering the voltage fluctuation of the bus filter capacitor in the Swiss converter circuit 10, the maximum voltage that the switch tube can withstand may reach 580V. Referring to the control signal and input / output schematic diagram of the Swiss converter circuit in FIG. 4, when the voltage across the switch tube in the Swiss converter circuit 10 reaches the voltage threshold Vset, the control circuit 40 turns off all the switch tubes of the Swiss converter circuit 10 to cap the voltage stress across the switch tube at Vset, thereby ensuring the safe operation of the Swiss converter circuit 10. At the same time, the lower maximum switching stress allows the switch tube of the Swiss converter circuit 10 to select a smaller size when selecting, thereby reducing the cost of the entire power supply circuit topology. Thus, by turning off or limiting the switching action of other switch tubes, further voltage stress increase and potential equipment damage can be prevented.

[0042] The application provides a power supply circuit, which comprises a Swiss conversion circuit 10, a first voltage detection circuit 20, a second voltage detection circuit 30 and a control circuit 40. The input end of the voltage detection circuit is connected between the Swiss conversion circuit 10, the input end of the voltage detection circuit is connected to the output end of the Swiss conversion circuit 10, and the control circuit 40 is connected with the Swiss conversion circuit 10 and the voltage detection circuit respectively. In actual application, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is used for converting an alternating voltage into a direct voltage and outputting the direct voltage to a load; the voltage detection circuit is used for detecting the alternating voltage input into the Swiss conversion circuit 10 and outputting a first voltage detection signal; the second voltage detection circuit 30 is used for detecting the direct voltage output by the Swiss conversion circuit 10 and outputting a second voltage detection signal; and the control circuit 40 is used for driving the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to work according to the first voltage detection signal and the second voltage detection signal when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is in a preset voltage range, and driving the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to work according to the first voltage detection signal when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 exceeds the preset voltage range. According to the application, the switch tube in the power supply circuit is set as a low-voltage switch tube, and when the voltage stress of the low-voltage switch tube reaches the threshold value, the duty ratio and the switching condition of the switch tube are adjusted in time, so as to reduce the burden of the switch tube with excessively high voltage stress, avoid damaging the switch tube and other circuit modules, ensure the reliability and stability of the power supply circuit, improve the efficiency of the power supply circuit and reduce the cost of the power supply circuit.

[0043] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 1, the control circuit 40 is specifically used for acquiring the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 according to the first voltage detection signal, controlling the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to be turned on according to a first preset duty ratio when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is in a preset voltage range, and controlling the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to be turned on according to a second preset duty ratio and / or turned off when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 exceeds the preset voltage range.

[0044] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the preset voltage range is set as the voltage threshold Vset, the control circuit 40 acquires the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 through the first voltage detection circuit 20, and detects that the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is in the voltage threshold Vset range, and the control circuit 40 controls the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to operate in the double closed loop mode, so as to control the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to conduct according to the first preset duty ratio through the cooperation of the voltage outer loop and the current inner loop, so that the Swiss conversion circuit 10 can provide stable output voltage while realizing high power factor.

[0045] When the control circuit 40 detects that the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 exceeds the voltage threshold Vset range, the control circuit 40 controls the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to operate in the voltage regulation mode, so as to control the driving circuit to drive the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to conduct according to the second preset duty ratio, so as to increase the duty ratio of other switch tubes, so that more current passes through other switch tubes, thereby reducing the current burden of the switch tube with excessively high voltage stress. Or, all the switch tubes in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 are turned off to eliminate the voltage stress of the switch tubes in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to the voltage threshold Vset, thereby stopping further voltage stress accumulation and avoiding additional voltage stress caused by switching action.

[0046] In an embodiment, with reference to FIG. 2, the control circuit 40 comprises:

[0047] a driving circuit, a control end of the driving circuit being connected with the Swiss conversion circuit 10;

[0048] a controller, a control end of the controller being connected with a controlled end of the driving circuit; the controller is used for controlling the driving circuit to drive the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to work according to the first voltage detection signal and the second voltage detection signal when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is in the preset voltage range; and the controller is used for controlling the driving circuit to drive the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to work according to the first voltage detection signal when the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 exceeds the preset voltage range.

[0049] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the control circuit 40 comprises the driving circuit and the controller. The controller is realized by an MCU, the driving circuit is realized by a PFC driving conversion circuit, the first voltage detection circuit 20 is realized by an alternating voltage detection loop, and the second voltage detection circuit 30 is realized by a direct current voltage detection loop.

[0050] In practical applications, the MCU obtains the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 through the alternating voltage detection loop, and detects that the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is in the voltage threshold value Vset range. When the MCU controls the PFC drive conversion circuit to drive the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to operate in a double closed loop mode, the voltage outer loop and the current inner loop jointly act on the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to drive the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to conduct according to the first preset duty ratio, so that the Swiss conversion circuit 10 can provide stable output voltage while realizing high power factor. When the MCU detects that the voltage value of the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 exceeds the voltage threshold value Vset range, the MCU controls the PFC drive conversion circuit to drive the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to operate in a voltage regulation mode, so as to control the driving circuit to drive the switch tube in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to conduct according to the second preset duty ratio, so as to increase the duty ratio of other switch tubes. Let more current pass through other switch tubes, thereby reducing the current burden of the switch tube with too high voltage stress. Alternatively, the PFC drive conversion circuit controls all the switch tubes in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 to be closed, so as to eliminate the voltage stress of the switch tubes in the Swiss conversion circuit 10 at the voltage threshold value Vset, thereby stopping the further accumulation of voltage stress and avoiding the additional voltage stress caused by the switching action.

[0051] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 2, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 includes a filter circuit 11, a rectifier circuit 12, a switching circuit 13 and a regulation circuit 14.

[0053] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 is composed of the filter circuit 11, the rectifier circuit 12, the switching circuit 13 and the regulating circuit 14, mainly relying on the switching circuit 13 to improve the power factor of the circuit and reduce the harmonic content of the input current. For example, the filter circuit 11 filters the alternating voltage and outputs it to the rectifier circuit 12, the rectifier circuit 12 rectifies the filtered alternating voltage and outputs a direct current to the switching circuit 13, a high-frequency switch in the switching circuit 13 and the regulating circuit 14 form a Buck structure to realize voltage reduction and rectification. By controlling the switch in the switching circuit 13 through the control algorithm of the control circuit 40, the harmonic current is injected, the power factor of the circuit is greatly improved and the input current harmonic is reduced, and by controlling the high-frequency switch in the switching circuit 13 through the control algorithm of the control circuit 40, the circuit outputs stable and low-ripple voltage.

[0054] In an embodiment, with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the Swiss conversion circuit 10 has a first connection end, a second connection end and a neutral end for connecting an alternating voltage, the neutral end including a first neutral end, a second neutral end and a third neutral end;
