SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The conventional flow controller for an ion engine is a flow controller that opens and closes the flow controller so that a certain aspect of artificial hygiene is always facing the earth. Since a power supply that meets the requirements of the drive circuits 2A to 2C was required, each flow rate adjustment drive circuit had one power supply. Therefore, changes in the power supply balance V _B are received by the power supplies 1A to 1C, and therefore have little effect on the flow rate regulator drive circuits 2A to 2C. In addition, each power supply and the flow rate regulator drive circuit are configured in a pair, and the power source absorbs the voltage variation due to the voltage variation of the flow rate regulator drive circuit, which affects other power sources and the flow rate regulator drive circuit. There was no advantage. However, the number of flow rate regulators that can drive one flow rate regulator drive circuit is limited, the required number of flow rate regulators increases, and the more flow rate regulator drive circuits installed in artificial hygiene, the more power sources there are. As a result, there are drawbacks such as an increase in the number of parts, an increase in failures due to an increase in parts, and an increase in weight due to the use of many power sources. The original purpose of artificial hygiene is that it has a long life and that many communication devices can be installed, but if the above-mentioned drawbacks are not satisfied, it is difficult to fulfill the mission of artificial hygiene. Therefore, in the conventional ion engine flow regulator control device, along with the increase in artificial hygiene, power loss increases due to the increase in the types of power sources, weight increase, the area used increases, the number of parts increases, and the circuit There was a problem such as a decrease in reliability due to complication.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and can supply a stable power supply voltage to a plurality of flow rate regulator drive circuits connected to one power supply output by using a logical operation circuit. The purpose is to provide a flow controller for an ion engine.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In the present invention, the logical operation circuit in artificial hygiene is used as a feedback signal by setting a voltage value in which the voltage regulator drive signal added to the flow rate control group causes various voltage drops due to changes in the load state of the flow rate regulator. It is fed back to and the power supply is controlled by a logical operation circuit.

[0007]

[Action]

 In this invention, the voltage value between the input of the flow rate regulator and the ground is input to the logical operation circuit, and an appropriate level amount is fed back to the power supply according to the voltage of the input of the flow rate regulator group that changes with load fluctuation. , Control the output of the power supply to the operating voltage of the flow rate regulator.

Figure 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of this invention, 2A～5C and V _B are of identical upper Symbol conventional device. 6 is a power source, 7A to 7C are power source outputs for connecting the power source output end and the first flow rate regulator drive circuit 2A to the third flow rate regulator drive circuit 2C, and 8A to 8C are the first flow rate regulator group 3A. ~ Feedback signal for connecting the third flow rate regulator group 3C and the logic operation circuit, and 10 is a power supply control signal for connecting the logic operation circuit 9 and the power supply 6.

The power supply 6 has a multi-output end, and the flow rate adjuster drive circuits 2A to 2C are connected to the output end, and each flow rate adjuster drive circuit drives a corresponding flow rate adjuster group 3A to 3C. , The voltage change of each of the flow rate regulator groups is detected by the feedback signals 8A to 8C, and the logical operation circuit 9 detects the change of the feedback signals 8A to 8C and feeds back an appropriate level amount to the power source 6 to output the output of the power source 6. Control the flow regulator so that it is at the operating voltage. FIG. 2 shows the inside of the power supply 6 in detail. 2A to 2C and 9 are the same as in FIG. Reference numeral 11 is a pre-regulator, 13A to 13C are first to third filters, S1 is a switch for connecting and disconnecting the output circuit 12 and the first filter 13A, and S2 is an output circuit 12 and the second filter. 13B is a switch for connecting / disconnecting, S 3 is a switch for connecting / disconnecting between the output circuit 12 and the third filter 13C, 14A is a pre-regulator control signal supplied from the logical operation circuit 9 to the pre-regulator 11, 14B Is a control signal for the switch S1, 14C is a control signal for the switch S2, and 14D is a control signal for the switch S3. The pre-regulator control signal 14A from the logic operation circuit 9 optimizes the operation efficiency of the pre-regulator 11 and makes the output of the pre-regulator 11 constant with respect to the change of the bus line V _B. The control signal 14B for the switch S1, the control signal 14C for the switch S2, and the control signal 14D for the switch S3 are the input voltage of the flow rate regulator groups 3A, 3B, 3C due to the load fluctuation of the flow rate regulator groups 3A, 3B, 3C. When it fluctuates, the switches S1, S2, S3 are turned on and off so as to suppress the fluctuation width to a minimum, and the voltage supplied to the flow rate regulator drive circuit is stabilized. When the flow rate regulator group is short-circuited or overloaded, the switches S1, S2, S3 are turned off to stop the voltage supply to the flow rate regulator drive circuits 2A, 2B, 2C and the output of the pre-regulator 11. A preregulator control signal 14A is generated to turn off the signal.

[Effect of the device]

 As explained above, the present invention uses a logic operation circuit for a power source, which tends to become more complicated as the size of artificial hygiene becomes larger, and has a control function increased from the conventional one and is simplified as a whole.
