Abstract

PURPOSE:To keep off any drop in conversion efficiency even in such an acting state as being little in a feeding quantity or a regenerative quantity, by dividing a DC voltage into plural unit inverters in small capacity, controlling it to be a constant voltage, while detecting regenerative or feeding power to be generated in a DC circuit, and converting it into a heteropolar discriminating voltage signal. CONSTITUTION:Divided into plural unit inverters 1-3 in small capacity, a DC voltage is controlled to be a constant voltage V0. This constant voltage is compared with a DC voltage (V) of the inverter and it is converted into a heteropolar discriminating voltage signal capable of discriminating the generation of regenerative power and feeding power by increase or decrease in a transient DC voltage. Motions of each unit inverter is selected and controlled by a voltage signal out of this discriminating voltage signal generator 8 and an AC current detection signal by each of current detectors 21-23 of these unit inverters 1-3. And, according to a feeding quantity and a regenerative quantity, a unit number of these inverters is controlled. Accordingly, in such a state as being little in the feeding power or the regenerative power, a switching loss is reduced so that high conversion efficiency is maintainable.

In this type of inverter, the electric power regenerated from an electric vehicle that repeatedly performs continuous operation and regenerative braking operation fluctuates significantly within a range of about 10 to 150% of the inverter's rated capacity, and the same applies to the electric power supplied. It fluctuates. By the way, PWM controls DC voltage, frequency, etc. by frequently opening and closing switching elements such as thyristors.
In an inverter, the voltage applied to the elements during switching is significantly higher than the forward voltage drop of the elements when conducting, so losses generated at the p+' junction of the elements and losses generated in the RC snubber circuit, that is, switching losses. Large and power supply? There is a property that this switching loss hardly changes even when the regenerated power is small. Therefore, when a regenerative inverter is configured with a single large-capacity unit, even when the impark supply power and regenerative power are small, the total load loss of the inverter is
There is a drawback that a switching loss equivalent to 40% occurs and the conversion efficiency of the inverter is significantly deteriorated, and an improvement is required.

In the circuit configuration as described above, when the load is light and the unit inverter 1 is performing converter operation to supply constant voltage controlled DC power to the electric car 5, if regenerative power is generated on the electric car 5 side. Assume. At this time,
Since the regenerated power is prevented from being regenerated to the power supply side by the unit inverter, the DC voltage ■ rises transiently, and the discrimination voltage signal generation circuit 80 input detection signal ■ exceeds the set voltage vO, so the discrimination voltage signal generation circuit 8 A positive discrimination voltage signal Va is output from the terminal. Upon receiving this discrimination voltage signal vd, the unit number control circuit 9 outputs a signal KjD instructing the PWM pulse generator 11 of the unit inverter 1 to pulse shift the sine wave modulation signal, and the unit inverter 1 changes from converter operation to regenerative inverter move to operation,
The regenerated power is regenerated to the AC power supply side. The voltage detector 6 still outputs a detection signal exceeding the set value vO, and the output current signal of the current detector 21 provided on the AC circuit side of the unit inverter 1 exceeds the rated current of the unit inverter 1. In this case, the number control circuit 9 instructs the unit inverter 2 to perform regenerative inverter operation via the PWM pulse generator 12 of the unit inverter 2.
The two unit inverters 1 and 2 operate below the rated current. Next, when the output current signal of each unit inverter 1 and 2 operating as a regenerative inverter decreases to one-half of the rated current or less, the number control circuit 9 instructs the unit inverter 2 to stop. Only the inverter 1 performs regenerative inverter operation and regenerates regenerative power to the AC power source side. Furthermore,
When the output detection signal ■ of the voltage detector 6 falls below the set value VO, the discrimination voltage signal generation circuit 8 determines that a load requiring power supply has occurred, outputs a negative polarity discrimination voltage signal Va, and The control circuit 9 is the PW of the unit inverter 1.
By outputting a signal instructing a pulse shift of the sine wave modulation signal to the M pulse generator 11, the unit inverter 1 shifts from regenerative inverter operation to converter operation, and supplies electric vehicle 5 with constant voltage Vo K controlled DC power. to supply power.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention divides and forms a PWM regenerative inverter into a plurality of small-capacity unit inverters to perform constant DC voltage control, and converts regenerative power or supplied power generated in a DC circuit into a DC voltage. This discrimination voltage signal is used to switch and control the power supply regeneration operation of the unit inverter, and the discrimination voltage signal and the alternating current signal of the unit inverter Supply 1 unit inverter!
The configuration is such that the number of units can be controlled according to the amount of regeneration or the amount of regeneration. As a result, the number of unit inverters that operate the converter or regenerative inverter is controlled in response to the amount of power supplied or regenerated on the load side, and the switching loss of the unit inverters can be reduced as the number of units in operation decreases. This eliminates the problem of the conventional technology, in which switching loss occurs regardless of the amount of power supplied or regenerated, and the conversion efficiency drops significantly in operating conditions where the amount of power supplied or regenerated is small, and operation with a small amount of power supplied or regenerated is eliminated. It is possible to provide a highly efficient operating method for a PWM regenerative inverter that does not cause a significant drop in conversion efficiency even under the above conditions.
