Abstract

The arrangement for automatic testing of electrically driven equipment tests the effectiveness of protective systems against faulty operation and system faults. In partic. the testing is concerned with the isolation resistance, earth connection, maximum temp at defined points, and the leakage current which can be drawn from certain surfaces. The test device can be supplied for insertion into existing equipment, included during original production of equipment, or provided as an add-on unit. It contains a suitable test circuit for each characteristic to be investigated. According to the nature of the test, and the type of tested equipment, the device can perform individual or multiple tests continuously, at regular controlled intervals.

Description

Patentschrift:Patent specification:

"Automatische Prüfung von Sicherheitseinrich-tungen" Neben der Funktion eines Apparates ist es wichtig, daß die Benutzung des Apparates weder den Benutzer noch Dritte schädigt."Automatic testing of safety devices" In addition to the function of an apparatus, it is important that neither the user nor the user can use the apparatus harms third parties.

Solche Schäden können sowohl durch Fehlbedienung bei intakten Geräten entstehen, als auch durch Mängel am Gerät oder System verursacht werden.Such damage can be caused by operating errors in intact devices as well as caused by defects in the device or system.

Es sind verschiedene Sicherheitseinrichtungen und -forderungen Stand der Technik, die solche geräte- oder systembedingte Schäden verhindern sollen. Die Praxis zeigt jedoch, daß solche Sicherheitseinrichtungen oder -forderungen durch Einflüsse, wie Alterung, bewußte oder fahrlässige Ausschaltung durch den Anwender, ineffektiv werden, ohne daß der Benutzer dies feststellen kann.There are various safety devices and requirements the technology that is intended to prevent such device or system-related damage. the Practice shows, however, that such safety devices or requirements by Influences such as aging, deliberate or negligent deactivation by the user, become ineffective without the user being able to tell.

In diesen Fällen ist das Gerät nicht mehr durch die Sicherheitseinrichtung geschützt, d.h. bei einem Geräte-Mängel können Gefährdungen auftreten.In these cases the device is no longer through the safety device protected, i.e. in the event of a device defect, hazards can arise.

Die vorgeschlagene Erfindung knüpft an die sich einbürgernde Methode an, die ordnungsgemäße Funktion eines Apparates nicht nur durch den Benutzer zu überprüfen, sondern diese Prüfung durch Knopfdruck oder durch -Zeitablauf selbstätig ablaufen zu lassen (Test). Z.B. bei kleinen Taschenrechnern werden solche Funktions-Tests durch Druck auf einer Testtaste ausgelöst. Der Rechner überprüft in einem festgelegten Ablauf seine Funktion - mehr oder weniger vollständig - und zeigt in geeigneter Weise das Ergebnis dem Benutzer an.The proposed invention ties in with the naturalization method that the proper functioning of an apparatus is not restricted to the user alone check, but this check automatically by pressing a button or by timing to run (test). Such function tests are carried out e.g. on small pocket calculators triggered by pressing a test button. The calculator checks in a set Expires its function - more or less completely - and shows in appropriate Direct the result to the user.

Alle bekannten Testmethoden sind für den Benutzer ilinweise der ordnungsgemäßen Funktion, die für ihn im Vordergrund steht. Wie oben angeführt, sind jedoch Sicherheitseinrichtungen im Gerät oder außerhalb des Gerätes erforderlich, um nicht einen Gerätemängel zu einer Gefährdung werden zu lassen.All known test methods are correct for the user Function that is in the foreground for him. As stated above, however, there are safety devices Required inside or outside the device in order not to cause a device defect become a hazard.

Zur Sicherung der Effektivität dieser-Sicherheitseinrichtungen sind in den einschlägigen Vorschriften gewisse Maßnahmen gefordert, deren Einhaltung dem Hersteller aufgegeben sind und deren Fortbestand im wesentlichen Aufgabe der Instan-dEaltung des Gerätes und dort der regelmäßigen Inspektion ist. Es kann sogar gesagt werden, daß die Inspektion eines Gerätes neben der ordnungsgemäßen Funktion sich vornehmlich auf die Prüfung des ordnungsgemäßen Zustandes dieser Sicherheitseinrichtung erstreckt.To ensure the effectiveness of these safety devices are In the relevant regulations, certain measures are required, compliance with them are given up to the manufacturer and their continued existence is essentially the task of Installation of the device and regular inspection there. It can even It can be said that the inspection of a device is in addition to its proper function primarily on checking the proper condition of this safety device extends.

Z.B. werden für ein elektro-medizinisches Gerät die folgenden Anforderungen (Auswahl gestellt (VDE 107, VDE 7050): - Isolationswiderstand, - Schutzleiteranschluß, - Maximaltemperatur an gewissen Stellen, z.B. in der Sekundarwicklung und/oder an gewissen Oberflächen, - Ableitstrom von gewissen Oberflächen.For example, for an electro-medical device, the following requirements become (Selection made (VDE 107, VDE 7050): - insulation resistance, - protective conductor connection, - Maximum temperature at certain points, e.g. in the secondary winding and / or on certain surfaces, - leakage current from certain surfaces.

Erfindungsgemäß wird vorgeschlagen, in einem Apparat eine Einrichtung einzubauen oder eine Zusatzeinrichtung zeitweise oder dauernd zu benutzen, womit dauernd nach vorgegebenem Zeitablauf selbstätig oder durch willkürliche Auslösung eine oder mehrere Messungen gleichzeitig oder nacheinander im Gerät oder durch eine Zusatzeinrichtung durchgeführt werden, deren positives Ergebnis durch geeignete Anzeige oder Warneinrichtung den Benutzer informiert, ob, bzw. daß alle notwendigen ausgewählten Sicherheitseinrichtungen ordnungsgemäß funktionieren. Hierbei sind nach Möglichkeit die Original-Prüfmethoden der einschlägigen Vorschriften zu benutzen. Wenn dies unmöglich ist, so zumindest äquivalente Prüfmethoden.According to the invention it is proposed to have a device in an apparatus to build in or to use an additional device temporarily or permanently, with which continuously after a specified period of time automatically or by arbitrary triggering one or more measurements simultaneously or one after the other in the device or by a Additional equipment can be carried out, the positive result of which by suitable Display or warning device informs the user whether or that all necessary selected safety devices are functioning properly. Here are to use the original test methods of the relevant regulations if possible. If this is impossible, at least equivalent test methods.

Als Beispiel sei die automatische Messung des Ableitstromes angeführt.An example is the automatic measurement of the leakage current.

Die Einrichtung soll so ausgelegt sein, daß Fehler der Einrichtung nicht zu einem positiven Meßergebnis bei defektem Prüfling führen.The facility should be designed to prevent failure of the facility do not lead to a positive measurement result in the case of a defective test item.

Eine solche Einrichtung kann z.B. aus einem Extra-Einschub bestehen, der auch das Netzteil enthält. Hier werden-die o.a. Messungen oder eine Auswahl davon dauernd ausgeführt, z.B.Such a device can, for example, consist of an extra slot, which also contains the power supply. The above measurements or a selection are made here of which carried out continuously, e.g.

Ableitstrom durch Meßgerät mit Meßbereich 1OmV/i = lkOhm, Maximaltemperatur durch Überwachung eines in die SekdWicklung eingebauten temperaturabhängigen Schalters oder Widerstandes, evtl. Leakage current through measuring device with measuring range 1OmV / i = 1kOhm, maximum temperature by monitoring a temperature-dependent switch built into the secondary winding or resistance, possibly

Übergangswiderstand der Schleife Schutzleiter/Potentialausgleich. Contact resistance of the loop protective conductor / equipotential bonding.

Auf Knopfdruck oder durch eine Zeituhr (clock) werden die nachstehenden Messungen (Auswahl) durchgeführt, die ein Abschalten vom Netz erforderlich machen: - Isolationswiderstand durch eingebautes Meßgerät und Spannungswandler, - Schutzleiteranschluß'durch Messung des Übergangswiderstandes von 0,3 -Ohm bei einem Strom von 10 A entsprechend einer Speisung von 2 V.At the push of a button or by a clock, the following Measurements (selection) carried out that require disconnection from the grid: - Insulation resistance through built-in measuring device and voltage transformer, - Protective conductor connection through Measurement of the contact resistance of 0.3 ohms at a current of 10 A accordingly a supply of 2 V.
