The specific circuit of the zero-crossing detection module 80 can refer to the prior art, and is not described herein again.
The circuit shown in this embodiment operates as follows: when the K1 of the first switch module 20 is closed and the K2 of the second switch module 30 is open, the rectifying and filtering circuit composed of the rectifying module 40, the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2 operates in the full-bridge rectifying mode. At the moment, a live wire, namely an L wire, of the alternating current power supply is loaded on an alternating current input end of the full-bridge rectification module BR2 through the first FUSE1, the differential mode filter inductor L2, the current transformer T1 and the reactor L. The live wire, i.e. the L wire, of the ac power supply passes through the differential-mode filter inductor L2, and when the K1 of the first switch module 20 is loaded at the other ac input end of the full-bridge rectifier module BR 2. The alternating current power supply outputs direct current after being rectified by the full-bridge rectification module BR2, and stable direct current is obtained after being filtered by a filter circuit formed by connecting the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2 in series and is loaded on the driving module 50, so that the rectification module BR2 works in a full-bridge rectification mode at the moment. Meanwhile, a PFC circuit composed of the full-bridge rectifier module BR1, the switching tube Q1, the PFC driving unit 12 and the reactor L performs PFC correction under the control of the controller 60, namely the MCU, and since the PFC circuit is connected to an alternating current side, an alternating current signal needs to be rectified into direct current through the full-bridge rectifier module BR1 and loaded at two ends of a source electrode and a drain electrode of the IGBT switching tube Q1, and a grid electrode is controlled by a switching pulse signal output by the MCU through the PFC driving unit. When the switch tube Q1 is switched on, the alternating current power supply forms a loop through the reactor L, the full-bridge rectifier module BR1, the switch tube Q1 and the K1 of the first switch module 20, the reactor L stores energy, when the switch tube Q1 is switched off, induced electromotive force is generated on the reactor L, the current direction of the current corresponding to the induced electromotive force flowing through the reactor L is consistent with that before the switch tube Q1 is switched off, and the current corresponding to the induced electromotive force charges the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2 through the full-bridge rectifier module BR2, so that PFC correction is realized.
When the K1 of the first switch module 20 is closed and the K2 of the second switch module 30 is closed, the rectifying and filtering circuit composed of the rectifying module 40, the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2 operates in the voltage-doubling rectifying mode. As shown in fig. 2, when the alternating current of the alternating current power supply starts from the line L, the alternating current flows through the reactor L, the full-bridge rectifier module BR2, the first capacitor E1 and the switch K2 to return to the line N of the alternating current as shown by the dotted line in the figure; as shown in fig. 3, when the ac current of the ac power supply starts from the N line, the ac current flows through the switch K2, the second capacitor E2, the full-bridge rectifier module BR2, and the reactor L, and returns to the ac current from the L line, as shown by the dotted line in the figure. Since the alternating current starts from the L line and the N line, the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2 are respectively charged, the voltage loaded at the two ends of the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2 after being connected in series is twice of the alternating current charging voltage, that is, the double-voltage rectification mode is operated at this time. Meanwhile, the operation of the PFC circuit is substantially the same as that when the switch K2 is turned off, that is, when the switching tube Q1 is turned on, the current loop is the same as that described above, and when the switching tube Q1 is turned off, the current direction corresponding to the induced electromotive force generated in the reactor L is the same as that before the switching tube Q1 is turned off, and at this time, the current charges the first capacitor E1 or the second capacitor E2 in the directions of the dotted lines in fig. 2 and 3, respectively, thereby implementing PFC correction.
In the PFC circuit of the present embodiment, the second switch module 30 performs switching between the full-bridge rectification mode and the voltage-doubling rectification mode, and the first switch module 20 is connected in series in the ac loop, so that when the first switch module 20 is turned off, the ac loop is turned off, and when the ac loop is turned off, the rectifier module 40 and the power factor correction module 10 are connected in series in the ac loop, and power supply to the two modules is also turned off, thereby realizing power supply to the whole PFC circuit and the rear-stage driving module 50 and the load of the rectifier module 20. In a specific application, the load includes a compressor or a motor, the driving Module 50 corresponds to a driving circuit for driving the compressor or the motor, the compressor or the motor is a permanent magnet synchronous motor, the driving Module 50 includes an IPM Module (Intelligent Power Module), and the driving Module is configured to invert a direct current loaded on the IPM Module into an alternating current to drive the compressor or the motor under the control of the controller 60. When the PFC circuit of this embodiment is in operation, because the input of the PFC circuit is an alternating current, it is necessary to ensure that a current is maintained when the switching tube Q1 is in operation to store energy in the reactor L, and therefore the controller needs to detect a zero-crossing signal of the alternating current through the zero detection module 80, and control the switching tube Q1 to be turned on after the zero-crossing to ensure that the switching tube Q1 can store energy in the reactor L through a continuous current. In addition, during the operation of the PFC circuit, the controller 60 needs to obtain the current working current of the circuit through the current detection module 70, if the working current of the load is found to be too high, which causes the working current of the PFC circuit to be too high, the controller 60 needs to control the operating frequency of the switching tube Q1 to be reduced to reduce the working current, and when the working current is detected to exceed the limit value, the first switching module 20 needs to be controlled to be turned off to turn off the entire PFC circuit and the load, so as to achieve the safety protection of the PFC circuit and the load. Since the entire PFC circuit and load are powered off when the first switch module 20 is turned off, and the control module 60 still needs to operate, a dc power supply needs to be added to supply power to the control module 60, as shown in fig. 1.
The rectifying and filtering circuit shown in this embodiment is suitable for increasing the output dc voltage through voltage-doubling rectification when the input ac voltage is low, such as the input ac voltage is 100V, taking the load as an example of a compressor, when the compressor operates in a high power environment, reducing half of the output dc voltage in relation to the full-bridge mode can reduce the working current of the load, so that the load operates more safely and the conversion efficiency of the PFC module is also higher, and when the compressor operates in a low-power load, such as when the operating frequency of the compressor is less than a preset value of 20Hz, the working current of the circuit is low, the conversion efficiency of the PFC circuit in the voltage-doubling rectification mode is low, and at this time, the controller 60 controls the second switch module 30 to be turned off, so that the rectifying and filtering circuit operates in the full-bridge rectification mode, the conversion efficiency of the PFC circuit is improved, although the working current is improved in the voltage-doubling rectification mode, the working current value of the compressor is still within a safe range due to the low working frequency of the compressor. Therefore, for a load with a wide working current range, such as a variable frequency compressor, at this time, the controller needs to acquire the frequency of the current compressor, and if the frequency of the compressor is smaller than the preset value, that is, the working current of the current compressor is low, the second switch module 30 is controlled to be switched off so that the rectifying and filtering circuit works in a full-bridge rectifying mode to improve the conversion efficiency of the PFC circuit; if the frequency of the compressor is greater than the preset value, that is, the current working current of the compressor increases, the second switch module 30 is controlled to be turned on to make the rectifying and filtering circuit work in the voltage-multiplying rectifying mode to reduce the supply current of the load, so that the load can work more safely without causing overcurrent protection.
According to the PFC circuit provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the first switch module 20 and the second switch module 30 are added to the PFC current, the first switch module 20 is connected in series to an ac loop including the reactor L and the rectifier module 40, the ac input terminal of the power factor correction module 10 is connected in parallel to the ac input terminal of the rectifier module 40, one end of the second switch module 30 is connected to the ac loop, and the other end is connected to a common node of two capacitors in a filter circuit including the first capacitor E1 and the second capacitor E2. The PFC circuit according to the embodiment of the present invention implements switching of the rectifying and filtering circuit in the PFC circuit between the full-bridge rectifying module and the voltage-doubler rectifying mode through the second switch module 30, so as to implement that the PFC circuit can still implement a high conversion rate when the load works in a low power state, and the first switch module 30 implements that the power supply of the whole PFC circuit can be cut off when the PFC circuit is protected from working abnormality, thereby implementing safety protection of the whole PFC circuit.
Further, based on the first embodiment of the PFC circuit of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, a second embodiment of the PFC circuit of the present invention is different from the first embodiment in the circuit connection manner of the first switch module 20 and the second switch module 30.

In the present embodiment, the first switch module 20 is instead connected in parallel to the live line, i.e. the L-terminal, of the near ac power source, specifically, connected in parallel between the reactor L and an ac input terminal of the rectifier module, and since the first switch module 20 is still connected in series in the ac loop, when the first switch module is disconnected, the power supply to the entire PFC circuit is disconnected. The connection relationship of the second switch module 30 is the same as that of the first embodiment.
The operation principle of the first switch module 20 and the second switch module 30 of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, and will not be described herein again.

The working principle of other modules in this embodiment is the same as that in the first embodiment, and will not be described herein again.
Further, based on the first embodiment of the PFC circuit of the present invention, as shown in fig. 8, a PFC circuit according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention is different from the first embodiment in the circuit connection manner of the first switch module 20 and the second switch module 30.

In this embodiment, the first switch module 20 and the second switch module 30 are instead connected in series at the end near the live line of the ac power source, i.e. the L-terminal, specifically, the first switch module 20 is connected in series between the reactor L and one ac input end of the rectifier module, and one end of the second switch module 30 is connected in parallel with the other end of the first switch module 20 away from the reactor L and one end of the rectifier module 40.
In this embodiment, the PFC circuit operates in the full-bridge rectification and voltage-doubling rectification modes as in the third embodiment, and the other modules operate in the same mode as in the first embodiment, which is not described herein again.
