Abstract

An overvoltage protective circuit with a simple constitution for step-down converter which inexpensively protects the apparatus connected to a step-down converter from overvoltages. An SCR (7) is connected between the output terminals of the converter. A voltage detecting circuit (10) detects the voltage across the output terminals. When the voltage exceeds a preset abnormal voltage, outputs a signal. When the circuit (10) outputs the signal, a thyristor firing circuit (11) allows the SCR (7) to conduct. As a result, one of fuses 9R-9T is blown and the power is interrupted, because input terminals are short-circuited through two conducting SCRs of SCRs 1-6.

技 術 分 野  Technical field
本発明は 、 降圧形コ ンバータ に接続される 電気機器を 過電圧か ら保護する保護回路に関する 。  The present invention relates to a protection circuit for protecting an electric device connected to a step-down converter from overvoltage.
背 景 技 術  Background technology
降圧形コ ンバータ は 、 入力 された高電圧を低下させて 低電圧を出力し 、 こ の低電圧を降圧形コ ンバ ータ に接続 さ れた電気機器に供給する も の と して利用 さ れる 。  The step-down converter is used to reduce the input high voltage to output a low voltage, and to supply the low voltage to electric equipment connected to the step-down converter. .
例えば 、 工作機械の送 り 軸を駆動する 送 り 軸モー タ の 駆動装置にあっ ては 、 商用交流 3 相電源を直流電圧に変 換する 降圧形コ ンバータ と 、 こ の変換された直流電圧を 可変電圧 、 可変周波数の交流に変換する イ ンバ ータ と を 備え 、 これによ つ て駆動对象であ る モータ を安定して回 転制御し ている 。  For example, a drive device for a feed shaft motor that drives a feed shaft of a machine tool includes a step-down converter that converts a commercial AC three-phase power supply to a DC voltage, and a converter that converts the converted DC voltage. An inverter for converting the voltage into a variable voltage and variable frequency alternating current is provided to stably control the rotation of the motor to be driven.
一般に 、 電気機器は定格を超え る過大な電圧が印加さ れる と機器の破損を引 き起こす。 通常 、 A C 2 0 0 V入 力のコ ンバータ は 3 相ダイオー ドブ リ ッ ジ回路を用い ら れたも のが多 く 、 その直流電圧を利用する機器の最大定 格電圧は 4 5 0 V〜 6 0 O Vである 。 そのため 、 過電圧 検出レ ベルを 4 0 O V に設定すれば 、 通常動作において ア ラームが発生する こ と も 、 ま してや機器の部品を破損 させる こ と も ない 。 例えば 、 モータ減速時のエネルギー の電源回生能力不足や外来サージによ っ て直流電圧部分 が充電さ れた結果 、 過電圧ア ラー ム発生レ ベル に達する よ う な場合でも 、 電圧は徐々 に増加する ため 、 過電圧を 検出 し て数 + m s e c 後に入力電源を電磁接触器で切断 する こ と によ り 、 コ ンバータ に接続さ れた電気機器を保 護する こ と ができ る 。 Generally, when an excessive voltage exceeding the rating is applied to an electric device, the device is damaged. Usually, converters with AC 200 V input use a three-phase diode bridge circuit, and the maximum rated voltage of equipment that uses the DC voltage is 450 V or more. 60 OV. Therefore, if the overvoltage detection level is set to 40 OV, no alarm is generated during normal operation, and even no damage is caused to the components of the device. For example, when the DC voltage portion is charged due to insufficient power regenerative capability of energy during motor deceleration or an external surge, an overvoltage alarm occurrence level is reached. Even in such a case, the voltage gradually increases.Therefore, by detecting the overvoltage and disconnecting the input power with a magnetic contactor a few + msec later, the electrical equipment connected to the converter is protected. can do .
一方 、 欧米の よ う に 、 商用入力電圧が高 く ( 例えば A C 4 6 0 V ) 、 これを位相角制御等を用いたコ ンバータ で降圧する よ う な場合 、 例えば 、 A C入力電圧が 4 6 0 Vで D C 3 0 0 V に降圧する コ ンバータ を用い 、 こ のコ ンノ ータ に上述し た電圧定格が 4 5 0 V〜 6 0 0 Vの A C 2 0 0 V用の機器 ( イ ンバータ ) を接続し て使用する 場合には 、 上述したよ う な不具合によ っ て入力の高い電 圧 6 5 0 V ( 4 6 0 V a c X 2 1 / 2 :) が瞬時の内に低圧 部分の機器 ( イ ンバータ ) に印加される 可能性がある 。 On the other hand, as in Europe and the United States, when the commercial input voltage is high (for example, AC460 V) and the voltage is stepped down by a converter using phase angle control or the like, for example, when the AC input voltage is 46 A converter that steps down to 300 V DC at 0 V is used, and the above-mentioned equipment for AC 200 V with a voltage rating of 450 V to 600 V (inverter) is connected to this converter. ), The high input voltage 65 0 V (460 V ac X 2 1/2 :) is instantaneously applied to the low voltage part due to the above-mentioned problem. May be applied to other devices (inverters).
こ の よ う な場合 、 従来の よ う に電圧検出を行ない電磁 接触器で入力を遮断する方式を用い る と 、 最低数十 m s e c 間 、 高い電圧がコ ンバータ に接続された電気機器に 印加される こ と にな り 、 該機器の保護が困難である 。 ま た こ の対策 と して 、 低圧用の機器を構成する 部品の耐圧 を上げる よ う にする と 、 コ ス ト が高 く なる と い う 問題が ある 。  In such a case, if the voltage is detected and the input is cut off by an electromagnetic contactor as in the past, a high voltage is applied to the electrical equipment connected to the converter for at least several tens of milliseconds. As a result, it is difficult to protect the device. Also, as a countermeasure, if the withstand voltage of the components constituting the low-voltage device is increased, the cost increases.

Connected to 1 5. The R, S, and T phases of a commercial AC three-phase power supply are connected to SCR 1 and SCR 2, SCR 3 and SCR 4 and SCR 5 via fuses 9 R and 9 S 9 T as protective relays. A smoothing capacitor 8 is connected between both output terminals 14 and 15. Although not shown in FIG. 1, the gates of SCR 1 to SCR 6 are connected to the thyristor firing control circuit 11.
以上の構成が 、 位相角制御方式サイ リ ス タプ リ ッ ジ降 圧コ ンバータ 2 0 の構成である が 、 本実施例では 、 両出 力端子 1 4 , 1 5 間に出力端子間の電圧を検出する 電圧 検出回路 1 0 が接続され 、 更に 、 短絡回路を形成する S C R 7 のア ノー ド がダイオー ド 1 6 のア ノ ー ド に 、 S C R 7 の力 ソー ド が出力端子 1 5 に接続されている 。 また 電圧検出回路 1 0 の出力はサイ リ ス タ 点弧回路 1 1 に接 続され 、 サイ リ ス タ 点弧回路 1 1 は S C R 7 のゲー ト に 接続され 、 S C R 7 を点弧でき る よ う になつ ている 。  The configuration described above is the configuration of the phase angle control type thyristor-plunger step-down converter 20. In this embodiment, the voltage between the output terminals 14 and 15 is set between the output terminals 14 and 15. The voltage detection circuit 10 to be detected is connected, the anode of the SCR 7 forming a short circuit is connected to the anode of the diode 16, and the power source of the SCR 7 is connected to the output terminal 15. ing .

The sea is squatting.
降圧形コ ンバータ 2 0 の構成は従来の位相角制御方式 サイ リ ス タブ リ ッ ジ降圧コ ンバ ー タ の構成 と 同様である が 、 S C R 7 、 電圧検出回路 1 0 及びサイ リ ス タ点弧回 路 1 1 によ っ て S C R 7 を点弧でき る よ う にした点が従 来 と 異なる 。 また 、 コ ンバータ の出力端子 1 4 , 1 5 はイ ンバ一タ 1 2 の入力端子に接続され 、 イ ンバータ 1 2 の出力はモ 一タ の各相の端子に接続されている 。 The configuration of the step-down converter 20 is the same as the configuration of the conventional phase angle control type thyristor-bridge type buck converter, except that the SCR 7, the voltage detection circuit 10 and the thyristor firing are used. The point that the SCR 7 can be fired by the circuit 11 is different from the conventional one. The output terminals 14 and 15 of the converter are connected to the input terminal of the inverter 12, and the output of the inverter 12 is connected to the terminal of each phase of the motor.
コ ンバ ー タ の入力端子に R , S , T相の 3 相交流電源 が接続され 、 従来と 同様に点弧回路 1 1 によ っ て S C R 1 〜 S C R 6 の点弧を制御して S C R 1 〜 6 で整流し位 相角制御を行なっ て所定の直流電圧を両端子 1 4 , 1 5 間に出力する 。  A three-phase AC power supply of R, S, and T phases is connected to the input terminal of the converter, and the firing circuit 11 controls the firing of SCR 1 to SCR 6 by the firing circuit 11 as in the past. 6 and rectify the phase and perform phase angle control to output a predetermined DC voltage between both terminals 14 and 15.
例えば 、 三相入力電圧が 4 6 0 Vで 、 位相角制御によ り 出力する 直流電圧が 3 0 O V に制御している場合に 、 入力の S C R 1 〜 S C R 6 が誤点弧する と 、 最大 6 5 0 V ( 交流 4 6 O Vのピ ー ク値 ) の電圧がコ ンノ 一タカ、 ら 出力 されイ ンバータ 1 2 に印加される こ と になる 。  For example, when the three-phase input voltage is 460 V and the DC voltage output by the phase angle control is controlled to 30 OV, if the input SCR 1 to SCR 6 misfire, the maximum A voltage of 65 V (peak value of AC 46 OV) is output from the inverter and applied to the inverter 12.
そ こで 、 こ の過電圧か ら低圧回路である イ ンバータ 1 2 の各部品 ( ス イ ッ チ ン グ素子等 ) を保護する ため に 、 本発明 においては 、 コ ンバータ 2 0 の出力電圧を電圧検 出回路 1 0 で検出し 、 設定電圧 ( 例えば 4 0 0 V ) 以上 になる と 、 出力信号をサイ リ ス タ点弧回路 1 1 に出力し サイ リ ス タ点弧回路 1 1 は 、 こ の信号を受けて S C R 7 のゲー ト にゲー ト 電流を流し 、 S C R 7 を導通 させ 、 コ ンバータ 2 0 の出力端子を短絡する 。 その結果 、 その時 導通し ている S C R 1 〜 S C R 6 を介し て過大電流が流 れヒ ユーズ 9 R〜 9 Tのいずれかを溶断する 。  In order to protect each component (switching element, etc.) of the inverter 12 as a low-voltage circuit from this overvoltage, the output voltage of the converter 20 is changed according to the present invention. When the voltage is detected by the detection circuit 10 and becomes equal to or higher than a set voltage (for example, 400 V), an output signal is output to the thyristor firing circuit 11 and the thyristor firing circuit 11 outputs the signal. In response to this signal, a gate current is supplied to the gate of SCR 7 to make SCR 7 conductive and short-circuit the output terminal of converter 20. As a result, an excessive current flows through the SCR1 to SCR6 that are conducting at that time, and blows any one of the fuses 9R to 9T.
例えば 、 S C R 1 と S C R 6 が導通している と き に 、 異常電圧が検出 さ れ 、 S C R 7 が導通する と 、 S C R 1 S C R 7 、 S C R 6 を介 し て R相 と T相の入力端子が短 絡さ れる こ と にな り 、 ヒ ュ ーズ 9 R , 9 T が溶断さ れる こ と にな り 過電圧が低圧回路であ る イ ンパ ー タ 1 2 に印 加 さ れる のが防止 さ れる 。 For example, when an abnormal voltage is detected when SCR 1 and SCR 6 are conducting, and when SCR 7 is conducting, SCR 1 The R-phase and T-phase input terminals are short-circuited via SCR7 and SCR6, and fuses 9R and 9T are blown. It is prevented from being applied to the impeller 12 which is.
なお 、 コ ンバー タ 2 0 の 出力を短絡さ せる 素子 と し て は 、 S C R 7 以外の ト ラ ンジス タや I G B T ( 絶縁グー ト バイ ポー ラ 形 ト ラ ンジス タ ) 、 G T O ( ゲー ト タ ーン オフ サイ リ ス タ ) 等のノヽ。ワ ース イ ッ チ ング素子を用いて あ よ い 。  The elements that short-circuit the output of the converter 20 include transistors other than SCR7, IGBTs (insulated good bipolar transistors), and GTOs (gate turns). Off thyristor). You can use a worst switching element.
本発明 においては 、 過電圧がコ ンバー タ か ら 出力 さ れ た場合 、 即時にコ ンバータ の入力を遮断する の で 、 コ ン バ ー タ の 出力端子に接続さ れた低電圧系のィ ンバ ー タ 等 の機器の破壊を防止する こ と ができ る 。  In the present invention, when an overvoltage is output from the converter, the input of the converter is immediately cut off, so that the low-voltage inverter connected to the output terminal of the converter is used. This can prevent the destruction of equipment such as data.
