本申请涉及供电线路安全保护技术,尤其涉及一种线路保护电路、方法及供电线缆。The present application relates to a power line security protection technology, and in particular, to a line protection circuit, a method, and a power supply cable.
背景技术Background technique
随着技术的发展,移动终端已成为用户日常使用频繁的设备,使得终端的耗电速率越来越快,从而对终端电池的充电也随之越来越频繁;为了有更好的用户的体验,缩短充电时间,快速充电已成为移动终端必须支持的技术;当前,主流快速充电的实质就是增大充电器的输出功率,在电池的充电曲线范围增大充电电流;在充电过程中,不少手机用户都遇到了充电器输出端子的连接器在手机充电时发生微短路后,连接器被烧融的安全问题;特别是当前移动终端通用的Micro USB或TYPE C连接器,由于结构尺寸限制和接口敞开式,用户在使用过程中,插头插座斜向插拔破损,插头用力过大弯折折断,或异物进入,形成大量导电液体和金属粉末,造成充电器线缆在插座内部发生微短路;微短路无法达到充电器短路保护条件,故充电器持续输出功率,在连接器内部转化形成热量;或者随着插拔次数增加,插头和插座的金手指表面发生氧化,致使接触电阻变大,在充电的过程中造成发热,当电流增大显得尤为严重,最终导致数据线或充电 器插头或手机接口受热熔化,冒烟、起火等安全事故。With the development of technology, mobile terminals have become users' daily use devices, making the terminal's power consumption rate faster and faster, and thus charging the terminal battery more and more frequently; in order to have a better user experience Shortening the charging time, fast charging has become a technology that mobile terminals must support; currently, the essence of mainstream fast charging is to increase the output power of the charger, increase the charging current in the charging curve range of the battery; in the charging process, many Mobile phone users have encountered the safety problem of the connector being melted after the connector of the charger output terminal is slightly short-circuited during charging of the mobile phone; in particular, the Micro USB or TYPE C connector commonly used in current mobile terminals, due to structural size limitations and The interface is open, when the user is in use, the plug and socket are inserted and removed obliquely, the plug is bent too much, or the foreign matter enters, forming a large amount of conductive liquid and metal powder, causing a micro short circuit of the charger cable inside the socket; Micro short circuit can not reach the charger short circuit protection condition, so the charger continues to output power, in the connector The heat is converted into heat; or as the number of insertions and removals increases, the surface of the gold finger of the plug and the socket is oxidized, causing the contact resistance to become large, causing heat during charging, which is particularly serious when the current is increased, eventually leading to data line or charging. The plug or the phone interface is heated and melted, causing fire, fire and other safety accidents.
有部分方案通过在数据线或充电线缆靠近插头位置的充电回路的电源线上装配热敏电阻,当连接器内部发热到一定程度时,热敏电阻受环境温度影响改变了其阻值,从而改变通过热敏电阻的电源线上的电阻值,随之降低通过连接器的电流。但是降低电流时,同样会让连接器发热处发热减弱,温度降低,热敏电阻重新恢复正常状态,循环往复并且不易被察觉。而且,目前的热敏电阻等可恢复性的保护器件有效使用次数有限,在有安全隐患的数次充电过程后,就会使得线缆的保护措施失效。In some cases, the thermistor is assembled on the power line of the charging circuit of the data line or the charging cable near the plug position. When the internal heat of the connector is heated to a certain extent, the thermistor changes its resistance due to the influence of the ambient temperature, thereby Changing the value of the resistor on the power line through the thermistor reduces the current through the connector. However, when the current is reduced, the heat generated in the connector is also weakened, the temperature is lowered, and the thermistor is returned to the normal state, and the cycle is reciprocating and not easily detected. Moreover, the current use of recoverable protection devices such as thermistors is limited in effective use, and the cable protection measures are invalidated after several charging processes with safety hazards.
因此,如何能在发生安全隐患时切断电源,并能避免发生循环往复切断电源的情况,提高供电安全性,是亟待解决的问题。Therefore, how to cut off the power supply in the event of a safety hazard, and to avoid the situation of recirculating and reversing the power supply, and improving the safety of the power supply is an urgent problem to be solved.
