Patent Description:
A small direct current motor is widely used in medical devices. Generally, control of a direct current motor needs to meet security and reliability of a motion, and a closed-loop control method with limits is generally adopted. When arriving at a limit switch, a main loop of the power supplying of the motor is cut off by using a relay or a contactor, to achieve the purpose of stopping the motion.

A controller in the direct current motor and related to motion control generally implements control by using a microprocessor or a programmable logic circuit. For example, when the controller senses a motion position of the motor, a signal from the limit switch needs to be fed back to the controller. However, by a general control method, the limit switch directly cuts off the power supply of the motor, and therefore a position feedback signal cannot be provided. Considering that the motor is an inductive load, electric sparks occur when the limit switch cuts off the main power supply, thereby weakening the reliability of the circuit. In addition, the feedback signal is introduced in the programmable logic circuit, that is, software or programs are written to control the related relay or the contactor to cut off the power supply. However, there may be a delay in control by using software or programs, weakening the real-time performance, and the electric sparks generated during switching may further affect the life of the relay or the contactor, causing EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) interference. Therefore, a method and an apparatus for closed-loop control of the motor need to be considered.

In view of this, according to one aspect, the present disclosure provides a simple and reliable motor control circuit and medical device with a closed-loop controlled motor as defined in the attached set of claims.

An advantage of the motor control circuit provided in the present disclosure is that, when the motor moves to a specific position, the feedback signal triggered by the limit switch is received by the switch drive circuit section, and conduction of the corresponding switch triode in the switch circuit section is cut off by the switch drive circuit, to enable the power supply to stop supplying power to the motor, resolving problems of electromagnetic interference and sparks caused by inductive load of the motor (or a direct current motor) when the power supply is directly cut off by the limit switch, thereby improving reliability and security of the motor control circuit.

Another advantage is that, when the direction of the motion outputted by the motor is switched, the corresponding switch triode in the switch circuit section is selected to be conducted by a level associated with a direction control signal without relying on a relay (pack) to control a direction of power supply output, resolving problems of electromagnetic interference and sparks caused when the direction of the power supply output is switched by using the relay (pack), thereby improving reliability and security of the motor control circuit.

Another advantage is that, a technical solution for feeding the feedback signal triggered by the limit switch to the controller is provided, resolving a problem that the feedback signal generated by the limit switch cannot be fed back to the controller in the existing motor control circuit.

Another advantage is that, a process of the limit switch feeding the feedback signal to the controller does not depend on the controller to generate an enable signal in an invalid state to cut off the power supply to the motor for driving the output, instead, directly feeding the feedback signal to the switch drive circuit section and cutting off the power supply to the motor by using the switch drive circuit section, thereby resolving a delay problem caused by software control in the controller due to depending on the controller to send the enable signal to the switch drive circuit and a problem of device damage or motor burnout caused by software written in the controller being down or delayed and not being able to stop the motor upon arrival at the limit position. Therefore, based on the logic circuit receiving the feedback signal from the limit switch, the switch drive circuit generates the invalid drive signal that cuts off conduction of the switch triode in the switch circuit section.

To enable a person of ordinary skill in the art to understand the foregoing and other features and advantages of the present invention more clearly, embodiments according to the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompany drawings. In the accompany drawings:.

In this specification, "schematic" indicates "serving as an example, a case, or description", and any illustration or implementation described as "schematic" in this specification should not be interpreted as a more preferred or more advantageous technical solution.

For brevity of the accompanying drawings, only parts related to the present invention are schematically shown in the accompanying drawings, and do not represent an actual structure as a product. In addition, for brevity of the accompanying drawings and ease of understanding, for components with same structures or functions in some accompanying drawings, only one of the components is schematically shown or marked.

In this specification, "one" not only indicates "only one", but also indicates "more than one". In this specification, "first", "second", and the like are only used to distinguish from each other, not to indicate importance, an order, and a premise of mutual existence thereof, and the like.

Generally, a motor control circuit may include a controller, an on-off control circuit, and a direction control circuit configured to control a rotation direction of a motor. In some technical solutions, for example, the on-off control circuit generally consists of one or two relays or contactors to cut off power supply. However, the motor is an inductive load, and in a process of cutting off the power supply and/or switching an output direction of the power supply by using a limit switch or the relay, electric sparks and electromagnetic interference are caused. In addition, the electric sparks and the electromagnetic interference may also be caused when switching a direction of a motion outputted by the motor by using the relay. In some other technical solutions, the motor triggers a limit switch action upon arrival at a limit position, but cannot feed a feedback signal generated by the limit switch to the controller. In some other technical solutions, the controlling the rotation direction of the motor and the feeding the feedback signal from the limit switch to the controller are implemented by using a plurality of sets of the relays. However, in which way, installation errors may be introduced, causing inconsistent feedback signals. In some other technical solutions, the controller is configured to receive the feedback signal from the limit switch and generate a drive signal in an invalid state for controlling the motor to stop, which depending on reliability of software written in the controller. If the controller is down or delayed, a problem that the motor does not stop when upon arrival at the limit position may be caused.

A motor control circuit is provided in the present disclosure, based on the limit switch, the feedback signal is fed to the controller and a switch drive circuit section. The switch drive circuit section sends an invalid drive signal to a corresponding switch triode in a switch circuit section after receiving the feedback signal from the limit switch, to cut off the conduction, thereby enabling the motor to stop outputting, and in this case, the switching an output direction of the power supply and the cutting off the output of the power supply do not depend on the switching and the cutting off of the output direction of the power supply by the relay, for example, so that security problems of electric sparks and electromagnetic interference are resolved. In addition, the cutting off the driving to the motor by using the feedback signal from the limit switch does not depend on an enable signal generated by the controller, thereby bypassing the security problems caused by the delay and the shutdown of controller software.

A motor control circuit provided in the present disclosure is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

<FIG> is a schematic structural diagram of a function of a motor control circuit according to an exemplary embodiment.

As shown in <FIG>, a motor control circuit <NUM> according to a provided embodiment includes: a switch circuit section <NUM>, including at least one switch triode and configured such that a power supply supplies power to a motor <NUM> through the conductive switch triode, to drive the motor <NUM> to output a motion; a switch drive circuit section <NUM>, configured to control the switch triode in the switch circuit section <NUM> to be turned on or off. For example, the switch drive circuit section <NUM> may send a drive signal to the switch triode, and enable the corresponding switch triode to be conducted to drive the motor <NUM> to output the motion under the effect of a valid drive signal; and a limit switch section <NUM>, including at least one limit switch, configured to be associated with at least one limit position of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM>, so that the motor <NUM> generates a the feedback signal when outputting the motion to the limit position in a direction, where the feedback signal is received by the switch drive circuit section <NUM>, so that the switch drive circuit section <NUM> controls the switch triode associated with the limit switch to be turned off, to enable the motor <NUM> to stop outputting. It is easily understood that the direction of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> may select to conduct the switch triode associated with the direction. For example, given that the motor <NUM> outputs the motion in a first direction, the limit switch associated with the direction can be easily determined. That is, the association relationship can be set by using a program to select the on or off of the corresponding switch triode. In addition, the switch triode is generally a semiconductor switch triode such as a thyristor, a triode, a CMOS transistor, and an IGBT transistor, and is not limited to be formed by an NPN junction or a PNP junction. As shown in <FIG>, in this case, taking the triode as an example, diodes D1 and D2 such as freewheeling diodes can be connected in parallel between a source and an emitter of the switch triode, to protect the switch triode from being broken down. In addition, the motor <NUM> may be a direct current motor.

According to a provided embodiment, when the motor control circuit <NUM> is configured to control the motor <NUM> to output a motion or rotate in directions such as a forward direction and a reverse direction, limit positions are set and a corresponding feedback signal is fed back, so that the motor <NUM> stops outputting when the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> arrives at the foregoing two limit positions. As shown in <FIG>, the limit switch section <NUM> includes: a first limit switch <NUM>, configured to be associated with a first limit position of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM>, so that when the motor <NUM> outputs the rotation to the first limit position in the first direction such as a counterclockwise direction, a first feedback signal Sf<NUM> is generated and received by the switch drive circuit section <NUM>, to enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to control a second switch triode Q2 associated with the first limit switch <NUM> in the switch circuit section <NUM> to be turned off, for example, the second switch triode Q2 connected to a second end (or referred to as a negative terminal, or a lower end) of the motor <NUM> is configured to be turned off, so that the motor <NUM> stops outputting the motion in such as the counterclockwise direction due to having no way to obtain the power supply, and when the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> in the counterclockwise direction does not arrive at the first limit position to trigger the first limit switch <NUM> to generate the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> fed back to the switch drive circuit section <NUM>, the second switch triode Q2 associated with the first limit switch <NUM> is turned on; and a second limit switch <NUM>, configured to be associated with a second limit position of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM>, so that when the motor <NUM> outputs the rotation to the second limit position in a second direction such as a clockwise direction, a second feedback signal Sf<NUM> is generated by the second limit switch <NUM> and received by the switch drive circuit section <NUM>, to enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to control a first switch triode Q1 correspondingly associated with the second limit switch <NUM> in the switch circuit section <NUM> to be turned off, for example, the first switch triode Q1 connected to the first end (or referred to as a positive terminal, or an upper end) of the motor <NUM> is configured to be in the off state, so that the motor <NUM> stops outputting in the clockwise direction. Similarly, when the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> in the clockwise direction does not arrive at the second limit position to trigger the second limit switch to generate the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> fed back to the switch drive circuit section <NUM>, the first switch triode Q1 associated with the second limit switch <NUM> is turned on. In this case, the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> is limited between the first limit position and the second limit position, to reliably control the output of the output of the motor <NUM>.

The motor control circuit <NUM> according to a provided embodiment further includes: a controller <NUM> and an interface circuit <NUM>, where the interface circuit <NUM> is configured to receive the corresponding feedback signal from at least one limit switch, for example, the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> and the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> are respectively received from the first limit switch <NUM> and the second limit switch <NUM> corresponding to the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> to the first limit position and the second limit position, and the foregoing feedback signals are fed to the controller <NUM>. In this case, the feedback signal generated by the specific limit switch is fed back to the controller <NUM>, to enable the controller <NUM> to determine the direction and an arrival position of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM>, so that the controller <NUM> can control the on or off of the associated switch triode according to the direction and the arrival position, and the advantage may be described with reference to the exemplary embodiment below.

Specifically, according to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, the controller <NUM> is further configured to determine to send an enable signal Se to the switch drive circuit section <NUM> based on the feedback signal that is generated by and received from the limit switch, to enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to select the switch triode associated with the limit switch in the switch circuit section <NUM> to send a drive signal Sd. In this case, for example, at least two limit switches are configured to be associated with the limits of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> in the forward and reverse directions, and based on the feeding of the feedback signal generated by one of the limit switches, the controller <NUM> may further enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to select the switch triode in the switch circuit section <NUM> and associated with the limit switch to send an invalid drive signal Sd, to control the switch triode to be turned off. Therefore, security control of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> by the motor control circuit <NUM> can be achieved.

As shown in <FIG>, according to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, the motor control circuit further includes: a direction control circuit section <NUM>, configured to be coupled to the switch circuit section <NUM> to be connected to the motor <NUM>, and configured to control the direction of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> by switching the on or off between the switch triode in the switch circuit section <NUM> and the motor <NUM>.

According to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, the direction control circuit section <NUM> is configured to receive a direction control signal Sdir from the controller <NUM>, to control the direction of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM>, where the controller <NUM> is further configured to select the on or off of the corresponding switch triode in the switch circuit section <NUM> based on properties of the direction control signal Sdir. It is easily understood that, for example, by programming the controller <NUM>, the direction of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> is determined under the effect of the direction control signal Sdir, so that the limit switch associated with the direction is determined, to select the on or off of the switch triode associated with the limit switch by using the controller <NUM>. In this case, the property of the direction control signal Sdir includes a level form thereof, such as whether the form is out of a high level or a low level, and how the direction control signal Sdir being associated with the limit switch and the switch triode is described below by using examples.

According to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, the switch circuit section <NUM> is configured to receive the enable signal Se from the controller <NUM>, to enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to send the drive signal Sd to the switch circuit section. In addition, the enable signal Se may also be selected to turn on one of the corresponding switch triodes, for example, after the related direction of the direction control signal Sdir is determined by using the program written by the controller <NUM>, the enable signal Se may select to turn on the switch triode associated with the direction, so that the drive signal Sd can be sent to the target switch triode according to the enable signal Se. In this case, the drive signal Sd may be generated according to the enable signal Se and may be in the valid or invalid state by using software timing or program timing written for the controller <NUM>.

<FIG> is a schematic structural diagram of a circuit of controlling a motor to output a motion in a first direction in a motor control circuit according to an exemplary embodiment.

According to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, to achieve the switching the direction of the output rotation of the motor <NUM> by the switch circuit section <NUM>, as shown in <FIG>, the switch circuit section <NUM> includes: a first switch triode Q1, configured to be connected to the positive terminal or the upper end of the motor <NUM> by using the direction control circuit section <NUM>, for example, a first relay K1 is coupled to a first end of the motor <NUM>, and the first switch triode Q1 is alternatively configured to receive a corresponding first drive signal Sd<NUM> from the switch drive circuit section <NUM> and be turned on upon receiving of a valid first drive signal Sd<NUM>, to enable the power supply to drive the motor <NUM> to output the motion (that is, the motor <NUM> outputs the motion in the clockwise direction) by using the turned-on first switch triode Q1; and a second switch triode Q2, configured to be connected to the negative terminal or the lower end of the motor <NUM> by using the direction control circuit section <NUM>, for example, a second relay K2 is coupled to a second end of the motor <NUM>, as shown in <FIG>, and the second switch triode Q2 is alternatively configured to receive a corresponding second drive signal Sd<NUM> from the switch drive circuit section <NUM> and be turned on upon receiving of a valid second drive signal Sd<NUM>, to enable the power supply to drive the motor <NUM> to output the motion (that is, the motor <NUM> outputs the motion in the counterclockwise direction) by using the turned-on second switch triode Q2. Considering that the first drive signal Sd<NUM> received by the first switch triode Q1 or the second drive signal Sd<NUM> received by the second switch triode Q2 are associated with the direction of the motion outputted by the motor, such as a level property of the associated direction control signal Sdir, actions associated with the first relay K1 and the second relay K2 when the foregoing drive signals Sd are selected to be sent to the first switch triode Q1 and the second switch triode Q2 can be achieved by writing timing sequences of the enable signal Se for the controller <NUM> and determining the switch drive circuit section <NUM> for correspondingly receiving the enable signal and sending the enable signal to the corresponding switch triode. The implementation of the foregoing functions will be described below by using the embodiments.

Specifically, to achieve that the first drive signal Sd<NUM> received by the first switch triode Q1 and the second drive signal Sd<NUM> received by the second switch triode Q2 are associated with the direction of the motion outputted by the motor or equivalent to the level property of the associated direction control signal Sdir, as shown in <FIG>, according to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, the direction control circuit section <NUM> includes: a first relay K1, configured to be connected to the first end (or the upper end) of the motor <NUM>, a normally-closed contact of the first relay K1 being grounded, and a normally-open contact thereof being configured to be conducted to the first switch triode Q1; and a second relay K2, configured to be connected to the second end (or the lower end) of the motor <NUM>, a normally-closed contact of the second relay K2 being configured to be conducted to the second switch triode Q2, and a normally-open contact thereof being grounded, where the first relay K1 and the second relay K2 each receive the direction control signal Sdir from the controller <NUM>, so that when the direction control signal Sdir is at a first level waveform, for example, the first level waveform is in a low level, the first relay K1 and the second relay K2 are not pulled-in, that is, the first relay K1 in an initial state is grounded, and the normally-closed contact of the second relay K2 is in contact with the second switch triode Q2, that is, the second relay K2 in an initial state is conducted to the corresponding second switch triode Q2 in the switch circuit section <NUM>, and in this case, the motor <NUM> outputs the motion in the first direction such as the counterclockwise direction; and when the direction control signal is at a second level waveform, for example, the second level waveform is in a high level, the first relay K1 and the second relay K2 are pulled-in, that is, the second relay K2 actuates to the grounding in a normally-closed contact state that is conducted to the second switch triode Q2, the first relay K1 actuates to be conducted to the corresponding first switch triode Q1 in the switch circuit section <NUM> in the normally-closed contact state that is grounded, and the motor <NUM> outputs the motion in the second direction opposite to the first direction such as the clockwise direction. In addition, the controller <NUM> may be configured to determine the direction of the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> by determining whether the direction control signal Sdir is out of the high level or the low level, and control the switch triode associated with the direction.

According to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, the switch drive circuit section <NUM> is configured to be correspondingly coupled to the switch triode in the switch circuit section <NUM>; and the controller <NUM> is configured to send the enable signal Se to the switch drive circuit section <NUM>, to enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to send the drive signal Sd to the switch triode conducted to the motor <NUM> in the switch circuit section <NUM>. For example, the switch drive circuit section <NUM> includes a plurality of output terminals to be coupled to the switch triode by connecting in a one-to-one correspondence, to enable the switch drive circuit section <NUM> to send the drive signal Sd only to the switch triode conducted to the motor <NUM> after receiving the enable signal Se at an input side, so that the off or on of the switch triode is controlled, thereby controlling the motion outputted by the motor <NUM>.

According to the motor control circuit <NUM> in a provided embodiment, to achieve that the switch drive circuit section <NUM> sends the invalid drive signal Sd to the corresponding switch triode to turn off the switch triode after receiving the feedback signal fed back by at least one limit switch, the motor <NUM> stops outputting the motion. The switch drive circuit section <NUM> includes a logic circuit, the logic circuit is configured to receive the enable signal Se from the controller <NUM> and receive at least one feedback signal, such as the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> from the first limit switch <NUM> and/or the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> from the second limit switch <NUM>, and the logic circuit inputs the valid drive signal Sd to the switch triode associated with the limit switch when receiving the valid enable signal and the invalid feedback signal, to enable the motor <NUM> to maintain the outputted motion in the direction; the logic circuit inputs the invalid drive signal Sd to the switch triode when receiving the invalid enable signal, to enable the motor <NUM> to stop outputting; and the logic circuit inputs the invalid drive signal Sd to the switch triode when receiving the valid feedback signal, to enable the motor <NUM> to stop outputting.

In a provided embodiment, as shown in <FIG>, based on a logic circuit, it can be achieved that the switch drive circuit section <NUM> receives the enable signal Se at the input side and sends the drive signal Sd to the switch triode conducted to the motor <NUM> at an output side, to control the off or on of the switch triode and control the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> based on the feedback signal from the limit switch. For example, the logic circuit may be configured to include: a first OR gate 1062a and a second OR gate 1062b, where the first OR gate 1062a is configured to receive the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> from the second limit switch <NUM> and receive the enable signal Se from the controller <NUM>, and is configured to output the first drive signal Sd<NUM> to the first switch triode Q1, to control the motor <NUM> to output the motion in the clockwise direction; and the second OR gate 1062b is configured to receive the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> from the first limit switch <NUM> and receive the enable signal Se from the controller <NUM>, and is configured to output the second drive signal Sd<NUM> to the second switch triode Q2, to control the motor <NUM> to output the motion in the counterclockwise direction. It should be noted that the foregoing logic circuit is respectively configured to receive the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> and the enable signal Se, and receive the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> and the enable signal Se by using the relatively independent first OR gate 1062a and the second OR gate 1062b, so that the writing of a control program based on the controller <NUM> can be conveniently implemented, to switch the conduction of the switch triode (or the property of the direction control signal Sdir from the direction control circuit section <NUM>) in the switch circuit section <NUM> to the motor <NUM>, thereby enabling the controller <NUM> to select to send the enable signal Se (not limited to the valid or the invalid enable signal Se) to the first OR gate 1062a or the second OR gate 1062b, and for example, according to the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> or the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> fed back by the first limit switch <NUM> or the second limit switch <NUM>, the controller <NUM> may further determine to send the invalid enable signal Se to the first OR gate 1062a or the second OR gate 1062b. In addition, the logic circuit may be further extended to the processing of logic relationships between the direction control signal Sdir, the first drive signal Sd<NUM>, and the second drive signal Sd<NUM>, or may be implemented according to further program writing of the controller <NUM>, and details are not described herein.

<FIG> are schematic diagrams of logic tables based on a feedback signal, an enable signal, and a drive signal from a logic circuit according to an exemplary embodiment.

As shown in <FIG>, based on the control of the shown logic circuit for the first switch triode Q1, for example, when the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> is at the low level (taking the value of <NUM>), the motion outputted by the motor <NUM> in the clockwise direction does not arrive at the second limit switch <NUM>. When the enable signal Se is at a valid low level (taking the value of <NUM>), the first OR gate 1062a outputs the first drive signal Sd<NUM> at the low level (being valid when taking the value of <NUM>) to the first switch triode Q1, the first switch triode Q1 is turned on, and the motor <NUM> continues to output the motion in the clockwise direction. When the motion outputted by motor <NUM> in the clockwise direction arrives at the second limit switch <NUM>, the second limit switch <NUM> is triggered, the second feedback signal Sf<NUM> is converted into the high level (taking the value of <NUM>), the first OR gate 1062a outputs the first drive signal Sd<NUM> at the high level (being invalid when taking the value of <NUM>) to the first switch triode Q1, the first switch triode Q1 is turned off, and the motor <NUM> stops outputting. In addition, <FIG> similarly shows, for example, the control of the second OR gate 1062b for the second switch triode Q2, that is, controlling the on or off of the second switch triode Q2 by using the second OR gate 1062b, to control the motor <NUM> to output the motion in the counterclockwise direction, and feed the first feedback signal Sf<NUM> at the high level to the second OR gate 1062b when the motor <NUM> moves to the first limit switch <NUM>, so that the second OR gate 1062b sends the second drive signal Sd<NUM> at the high level to the second switch triode Q2, the second switch triode Q2 is turned off, and the motor <NUM> stops outputting in the counterclockwise direction. Therefore, a safety, precise and punctual effect on the foregoing control of the motor control circuit <NUM> for the motor <NUM> can be achieved.

The controller <NUM> may include a general microprocessor and a dedicated microprocessor. The controller <NUM> may include, for example, but is not limit to one or more central processing units (CPUs), or one or more application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and/or one or more field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and the like.

According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a medical device is provided, including: a motor <NUM>; and a motor control circuit <NUM> mentioned above, where the motor control circuit <NUM> controls at least an outputted motion, a direction, and a limit of the motor. A medical device may be a medical device component such as a bed plate of a scanning bed or a detector in an x-ray inspection device driven by the motor <NUM>. The outputted motion or rotation of the motor <NUM> controls a motion of the bed plate of the scanning bed or the detector through transmission construction, and the motor control circuit <NUM> may control the outputted motion, the direction, and the limit of the motor to control security operations of the related medical component.

It should be understood that, although this specification is described according to each embodiment, each embodiment may not include only one independent technical solution. The description manner of this specification is merely for clarity. This specification should be considered as a whole by a person skilled in the art, and the technical solution in each embodiment may also be properly combined, to form other implementations that can be understood by the person skilled in the art.
