Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a method for operating an ultrasonic oscillator for liquid atomization is known, the electrical power being supplied in a timed manner and the power supplied being sufficient on average for the amount of liquid set, while the respective peak power is so high that a short supply of liquid is too short can be shaken off (DE-OS 33 14 609).
  • the ultrasonic oscillator must be manually adjusted to its basic operating frequency, and the ultrasonic atomizers, which have manufacturing tolerances and which have different working frequencies, for example, cannot be exchanged without adjustment.
  • the object of the invention is to design an ultrasonic liquid atomizer which enables reliable atomization with continuously automatic frequency adjustment and automatic shaking off of a flooding atomizing plate. Furthermore, a low power consumption of the electronics, a low temperature load and a high atomization rate should be guaranteed. Automatic temperature monitoring should be integrated.
  • the method according to the invention When the method according to the invention is carried out, reliable atomization with low power consumption of the electronics and a lower temperature load on the ultrasonic atomizer are achieved.
  • the optimum working frequency of the ultrasonic atomizer is found quickly since only a predetermined frequency range in which the working frequency of the ultrasonic liquid atomizer lies has to be run through. Furthermore, the operational safety is increased, since a snapping on a different frequency, e.g. the compound resonance frequency of the ultrasonic atomizer, which would lead to the destruction of the ultrasonic atomizer, does not occur in the embodiment according to the invention.
  • the ultrasonic atomizer is excited with a burst whose pulse duration is t 1. It vibrates over time duration t2 free before the next burst follows (FIG 3).
  • the current through the output stage is detected proportionally to the current through the ultrasonic atomizer and converted into a voltage - see FIG t4 measured and this value stored in a measured value memory (FIG 1, FIG 3 and FIG 4).
  • this measured value is transferred from memory I to memory II (FIG. 4).
  • the current measured value then newly recorded by the measured value memory I is compared by a comparator with the previous current measured value stored in the measured value memory II (FIG. 4).
  • the frequency is increased by one step per burst. This can be the case when the circuit is started up when the optimum operating frequency is sought.
  • the frequency is reduced by one step per burst.
  • the working frequency of the electronics is forcibly reduced by one step after a certain period of time t7 (FIG. 4).
  • the invention is illustrated by the dependence of the current through the output stage (proportional to the current through the ultrasonic oscillator) after processing by the electronics as a function of the frequency.
  • 2 shows particularly clearly the effect according to the invention, according to which the working frequency of the ultrasonic atomizer can be found very quickly and it does not matter whether it is damped (flooded atomizing plate) or vibrates freely.
  • the search direction goes from low to high frequencies.
  • the transition of the atomizer from the strongly damped (flooded) to the weakly damped (atomizing) state - combined with an increase in the working frequency of the ultrasonic atomizer - also takes place very quickly.
  • Another advantage is that after finding the optimal atomizer operating frequency, the circuit oscillates closely around the optimal operating point. In areas "A" outside of the optimal operating points, a constant current measurement value is specified by appropriate circuit measures so that the circuit can snap into place at the operating frequency of the ultrasonic atomizer.
  • the method according to the invention is particularly suitable for operating a piezoelectric ultrasonic atomizer with a piezoceramic and an amplitude transformer with an atomizing plate (see FIG. 5).
  • a temperature-dependent resistor to the ceramic of the ultrasonic atomizer (FIG. 6). If, for example, an impermissibly high temperature would occur on the ultrasonic atomizer as a result of running dry, the electronics switch off the output stage until the ultrasonic atomizer has cooled down again to permissible temperatures.
  • Ultrasonic liquid atomizers working according to the method according to the invention are particularly suitable for atomizing fuel, such as diesel oil, gasoline, for burners, engines, generators and auxiliary heaters, for cosmetics, such as hairspray, deodorants and perfumes, for cleaning agents, medications for inhalation purposes, solvents and water, For example in humidifiers, small climate chambers, air conditioning systems and terrariums as well as for use in systems for coating, humidification and air conditioning.
  • the method according to the invention is used with particular advantage to operate a piezoelectric ultrasonic atomizer with a piezoceramic and an amplitude transformer with an atomizing plate and excitation electronics.
  • FIG. 1 the voltage drop caused by the current is plotted on the ordinate, while time is shown on the abscissa. No measurement takes place during the period t3. The measurement is made during the period t4. The duration of the burst signal is t1.
  • FIG. 4 shows a block diagram of an excitation electronics according to the invention.
  • the voltage supply 12 an on-off switch, 13 the burst and frequency generation, 14 the pre-stage, 15 the final stage, 16 the transmitter, 3 the ultrasonic liquid atomizer, 2 an temperature-dependent resistance, with 17 the power supply, with 18 and 19 the measured value coil I and II, with 20 the measured value comparator and with 22 the frequency control.
  • the ultrasonic liquid atomizer 3 is excited via a preliminary and final stage with a burst, the burst frequency of which can be regulated by the method according to the invention.
  • the regulation takes place via a current measurement at different times and a comparison of different currents.
  • a temperature-dependent resistor 2 is attached to the ultrasonic atomizer 3.
  • the electronics are switched off by the temperature-dependent resistor 2 at impermissible temperatures.
  • FIG. 5 shows the ultrasonic liquid atomizer with a piezoceramic 4, the coupled amplitude transformer 5 and the atomizing plate 6.
  • the tube 7 integrated in the atomizer cone serves to supply liquid. 8 is the excitation electronics.
