In the above technical solution, the present disclosure implements the collection and transmission for the respiration tube logo and the temperature data as well as the transmission of the heating signal through the first control module 200 and the second control module 400, and the heating wire H1 and the second control module 400 may share the power supply end of the main board 100, or the second control module 400, the power supply of the heating wire H1 and the communication between the first control module 200 and the second control module 400 all share the power supply end of the main board 100, thus the use of the line may be reduced, thereby reducing the interface occupation of the main board 100.
As shown in
Specifically, the first control module 200 includes a first control chip MCU1, on which a signal emission pin and a signal receiving pin are disposed. The second control module 400 includes a second control chip MCU2, on which a signal emission pin, a signal receiving pin, a power pin and a heating control pin are disposed. The signal emission pin of the second control chip MCU2 is connected to the signal receiving pin of the first control chip MCU1, the signal receiving pin of the second control chip MCU2 is connected to the signal emission pin of the first control chip MCU1, the power pin of the second control chip MCU2 is connected to the power supply end V+ of the main board 100, and the heating control pin of the second control chip MCU2 is configured to control the disconnection or connection between the power supply end V+ of the main board 100 and the heating wire H1.
The signal emission pin of the second control chip MCU2 is connected to the signal receiving pin of the first control chip MCU1 through the power supply end V+ on the main board 100, the signal receiving pin of the second control chip MCU2 is connected to the signal emission pin of the first control chip MCU1 through the power supply end V+ of the main board 100.
A second switch K2 is also disposed on the main board 100, one end of the second switch K2 is connected to a 24V power supply, and the other end of the second switch K2 is connected to the power supply end V+ of the main board 100. When the first control chip MCU1 sends out the first modulation signal to the second control chip MCU2, the second switch K2 is closed; and when the first control chip MCU1 receives the second modulation signal sent by the second control chip MCU2, namely, when the second modulation signal is demodulated to obtain the second modulation signal, the second switch K2 is disconnected.
Further, the temperature control circuit for the respiration tube further includes a first voltage conversion unit, an input end of the first voltage conversion unit is connected to the power supply end V+ of the main board 100, and an output end of the first voltage conversion unit is connected to the power pin of the second control module 400.
Specifically, the first voltage conversion unit is a voltage conversion chip L, which is connected between the power pin of the second control chip MCU2 and the power supply end V+ of the main board 100 so as to convert the 24 V voltage output by the main board 100 into a 3.3 V power supply voltage required by the second control chip MCU2. When the first control chip MCU1 sends the first modulation signal to the second control chip MCU2, the first modulation signal is the 3.3 V DC current signal. When the second control chip MCU2 sends the second modulation signal to the first control chip MCU1, the second modulation signal is the 3.3 V DC current signal.
In combination with
It is understood that 20 ms only accounts for 1% of 2,000 ms, therefore the influence on the maximum heating power of the heating wire H1 in a heating circuit may be ignored. Of course, the signal transmission control period between the first control chip MCU1 and the second control chip MCU2 is also not limited as 2,000 ms.
Referring to
Specifically, when the second control chip MCU2 receives the first modulation signal sent by the first control chip MCU1 and obtains the first demodulation signal, the disconnection or connection of the first switch K1 is controlled according to the first demodulation signal, namely, whether to heat the heating wire H1 is controlled.
It is noted that the transmission data between the first control chip MCU1 and the second control chip MCU2 includes but is not limited to a request command, respiration tube logo data, temperature data or a checksum, and the transmission data is a group of two-stage system data. The respiration tube logo data may include a loop identification code, a respiration tube type, a respiration tube model, etc.
Referring to
Specifically, the first temperature sensor RV1 is located at an air inlet of the respiration tube, so as to detect the temperature data at the air inlet of the respiration tube. The second temperature sensor RV2 is located at an air outlet of the respiration tube, so as to detect the temperature at the air outlet of the respiration tube. The second control chip MCU2 supplies power to the first temperature sensor RV1 and the second temperature sensor RV2, and the first temperature sensor RV1 and the second temperature sensor RV2 can feed the detected temperature data back to the second control chip MCU2. In one implementation mode, the first temperature sensor RV1 and the second temperature sensor RV2 may be thermistors.
In the above embodiment, the power supply of the second control chip MCU2 and the heating wire H1 are all connected to the power supply end V+ of the main board 100, and the first control chip MCU1 is also connected to the second control chip MCU2 through the power supply end V+, then the communication between the first control chip MCU1 and the second control chip MCU2 may be implemented by a single wire only. The other end of the heating wire H1 is connected to the grounding end GND of the main board 100, so the connection between the temperature control circuit for the respiration tube and the main board 100 may be implemented by two wires only, thereby greatly reducing the interface occupation of the main board 100.
As shown in
Specifically, the second control chip MCU2 and the heating wire H1 are connected to the power supply end V+ of the main board 100 through one line, the other end of the heating wire H1 is connected to the grounding end GND of the main board 100, the communication between the first control chip MCU1 and the second control chip MCU2 is completed through a single circuit, namely, the transmission of the heating signal, the respiration tube logo and the temperature data is implemented. The power pin of the second control chip MCU2 is connected to a first voltage conversion chip L, so as to implement the conversion of the 24 V DC current output by the main board 100 into the power supply voltage 3.3 V of the second control chip MCU2. Similarly, the first switch K1 is also disposed between the heating wire H1 and the power supply end V+ of the main board 100, the first switch K1 is connected to the heating control pin of the second control chip MCU2, and the first switch K1 is controlled to be turned on or turned off through the heating control pin, thereby controlling the heating of the heating wire H1.
In the above embodiment, the power supply of the heating wire H1 and the second control chip MCU2 is connected to the main board 100 through one line, the line that the temperature data collected by the first temperature sensor RV1 and the second temperature sensor RV2 and the respiration tube logo of the respiration tube are sent to the first control chip MCU1 through the second control chip MCU2 is the same as the line that the heating signal of the first control chip MCU1 is sent to the second control chip MCU2, thus the temperature control circuit for the respiration tube only requires three lines to implement the connection with the main board 100, thereby greatly reducing the interface occupation of the main board 100.
