Definitions
- the invention relates to an arrangement and a method for protection against overload of an electric motor, in particular an electrically driven fan blower for a vehicle.
- fans are operated in parallel, one of the fans, e.g. a fan is blocked, due to a resulting overcurrent a fuse element, e.g. an electrical system fuse is triggered and the circuit is interrupted.
- a fuse element e.g. an electrical system fuse
- fans arranged in series increase the internal resistance of the fan, so that the tripping current of the fuse element remains below.
- thermal circuit breakers In the field of air conditioning, reversible thermal circuit breakers are usually installed in the circuit of the relevant thermal components switched, whereby in the event of a fault, ie in the event of overtemperature, the current flow in this circuit is interrupted.
- the thermal protection switch is designed as a break contact. As the thermal protection switch is known to be designed to be reversible, it is switched on again when the critical temperature falls below.
- Circuit breakers can only be used to a limited extent in the area of motor cooling due to their temperature range.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying an arrangement for protection against overload of an electric motor, which also provides a sufficiently good protection in series connection of several electric motors. Furthermore, a method which is particularly suitable for protecting an electric motor against overload is to be specified.
- At least one switching element being provided for speed-dependent control of two electric motors connected in series, in which a switch element designed as a make contact is connected in parallel with the electric motor, which causes the electric motor in question to short-circuit in the event of excess temperatures.
- the invention is based on the consideration that in the event of excess temperatures on one of the electric motors or on both electric motors, e.g. blocking a fan driven by the electric motor, for example by penetration of a foreign body, can result in considerable thermal stress, in particular excessive heating, which leads to an increase in the internal resistance of the electric motor.
- Increasing the internal resistance of the electric motor can be reduced to such a degree that the fuse arranged in the circuit to the electric motor trips.
- a switch element designed as a make contact is preferably connected in parallel with the electric motor in question, the switch element connecting terminals in the event of overtemperature of the electric motor shorts.
- the internal resistance of the electric motor is significantly reduced in such a way that an increase in current resulting therefrom exceeds a permissible predeterminable limit value.
- such a parallel connection of the switch element to the electric motor enables detection of the critical temperatures directly on the element causing the temperature increase.
- a switch element is assigned to each electric motor, the switch elements being able to trip independently of one another. If, in the event of a fault, only one of the electric motors switches off automatically by means of the associated switch element, the other can continue to be operated as intended, preferably at an increased speed in order to increase the cooling and thus airflow performance.
- the switch element is expediently designed as a thermal protection switch, in particular as a bimetal strip.
- a thermal release in particular the bimetallic strip, bends when heated and trips in the event of an overcurrent.
- the switch element is integrated in the electric motor for a particularly safe and simple detection of excess temperatures on the electric motor.
- the switch element is arranged on the component side of a brush plate of the electric motor in parallel with the electric motor. This results in a sufficiently good heat transfer for identifying the overtemperature and thus the overload on the respective electric motor.
- such an arrangement of the switch element on the component side of the brush plate takes up little installation space and is therefore particularly simple to introduce into the free spaces on the component side without problems and consequently can be easily retrofitted.
- a switch element arranged in this way does not require any additional wiring.
- the switch element is preferably designed such that tripping takes place above a specified engine operating temperature. In other words: for a simple design of the switch element, it is sufficient that its tolerance ranges for triggering lie above a predefinable critical temperature range of the respective electric motor.
- a fuse element for example a fuse or another electronic fuse component, is expediently provided for switching off a circuit feeding the electric motor when a predefinable critical limit value is exceeded.
- a fuse element for current-dependent triggering can be provided in a second stage.
- the circuit i.e. the power supply to the electric motor is interrupted.
- an interference suppression capacitor or another interference suppression component is expediently connected in parallel with the switch element. A conventional capacitor is used as the interference suppression capacitor.
- the task relating to the method for protection against overload of the electric motor, in particular of the electrically driven fan blower, is achieved according to the invention by controlling two electric motors connected in series by means of at least one switching element, in the event of overtemperature using a parallel to the respective electric motor and as Normally trained switch element of the electric motor is short-circuited.
- the internal resistance of the electric motor is preferably reduced in such a way that a resulting increase in current exceeds the predetermined limit value of the fuse element. This ensures that a fuse arranged in the circuit trips reliably.
- a different limit value and thus a different design of the thermal switch element is possible.
- the advantages achieved by the invention consist in particular in that a short-circuit of an electric motor caused by overtemperature by means of a parallel connection of a switch element designed as a make contact to the electric motor enables a particularly safe and simple fire protection arrangement even for two electric motors (also called double fans) connected in series.
- the integration of the thermal switch element in the electric motor itself enables detection and monitoring of the critical temperatures directly at the heat source.
- a switch element assigned to the respective motor or fan ensures separate monitoring and thus also separate safety shutdown of the respective faulty motor. After the fault has been rectified, the normal function of the relevant electric motor can be reactivated by replacing the blown fuse.
- 1A, 1 B is a circuit diagram of an arrangement for
- FIG. 2A, 2B show a circuit diagram of the arrangement according to FIG. 1 in the triggered state
- FIGS. 3A, 3B schematically the arrangement according to FIGS. 3A, 3B with an interference suppression capacitor connected in parallel with the switch element.
- Figure 1A shows a circuit for an arrangement 1 for protection (hereinafter referred to as protection arrangement 1) against overload of an electric motor 2.
- Protection arrangement 1 shows two electric motors 2, which are connected in series in a circuit 4, for ventilation of an internal combustion engine of a vehicle, not shown.
- the electric motors 2 connected in series serve to drive an associated fan blower (not shown in more detail) for cooling the internal combustion engine.
- the two electric motors 2 can be connected in series for a minimum speed and in parallel for a maximum speed by means of a switching element 6.
- a fuse element 8 is also connected in series with the electric motors 2. Via an output terminal 10, the electric motors 2 are connected to a power supply, not shown, e.g. a battery connected.
- the protective arrangement 1 comprises a switch element 14 designed as a make contact 12, which is connected in parallel with the electric motor 2.
- a switch element 14 can be provided for each electric motor 2.
- the switch element 14 is preferably a thermal protection switch, e.g. designed as a bimetal strip.
- the switch element 14 is designed such that the make contact 12 is triggered at a temperature ⁇ above the specified operating temperature. That is, the closer 12 is closed, as shown in Figures 2A and 2B. This causes the electric motor 2 in question to be short-circuited, so that the internal resistance Ri is reduced.
- the reduction in the internal resistance Ri leads to an increase in current, the fuse element 8 being triggered when a critical value, for example the specified limit value, is exceeded and the circuit 4 is interrupted.
- a critical temperature ⁇ is used to reduce the internal resistance Ri of the electric motor 2 due to a short circuit by means of the switch element 14, and on the other hand, a critical current value is used for the safety-relevant shutdown of the circuit 4 relevant electric motor 2 used by means of the fuse element 8.
- the electric motors 2 can be connected in parallel by means of the switching element 6. This then leads to a safe response of the fuse element 8 in the event of a fault.
- FIGS. 3A and 3B show different designs for installing the switch element 14 on the respective electric motor 2.
- the switch element 14 is parallel to the respective electric motor 2, in particular in the immediate vicinity of the place where the Heat is generated in the event of a fault, switched.
- the switch element 14 is preferably integrated in the respective electric motor 2.
- the switch element 14 is arranged on the component side of a brush plate 16 of the electric motor 2.
- two busbars 18 of the brush plate 16 designed as a carrier plate are connected to supply lines 20.
- the switch element 14 is connected between the two busbars 18, as is shown by way of example in FIGS. 3A and 3B. The switch element is thereby
- an interference suppression capacitor 22 can be connected in parallel with the latter. This is shown by way of example for the different forms of arrangement of the switch element 14 between the two busbars 18 in FIGS. 4A and 4B.
