Background
In recent years, light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) have become the mainstream of ceiling fan lighting systems because of their advantages of power saving and long life.

In practice, for convenience of management, a fixed dimming range (for example, 4ms to 8.3ms corresponding to the on time t) is directly set in the system, so as to provide a user with dimming in the range. However, since the dimming ranges of the LED lamps of the manufacturers are different, when the lower limit of the dimming range set by the system is lower than the lower limit of the dimming range of the installed LED lamp, the LED lamp will flash or be directly turned off when the LED lamp is not receiving enough voltage in the process of dimming the LED lamp, and when the lower limit of the dimming range set by the system is higher than the lower limit of the dimming range of the installed LED lamp, the LED lamp cannot be continuously dimmed again.

Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 2, an embodiment of the dimming control system for a lamp of the present invention includes a light emitting device 3, a driving circuit 4, a current detecting circuit 5, and a control unit 7. The luminaire dimming control system optionally further comprises a power supply circuit 2 and a communication unit 6 for communicating with a remote control 9.
The power supply circuit 2 is configured to receive an external power source (e.g., a mains supply), and to supply the external power source with voltage and voltage, and then to the driving circuit 4, the current detecting circuit 5, and the control unit 7.
The light emitting member 3 is a Light Emitting Diode (LED), and receives a driving signal to emit light.
The driving circuit 4 is electrically connected to the light emitting element 3, and receives the control of the control unit 7 to output the driving signal. The driving circuit 4 includes a driving switch 41 controlled by the control unit 7 to output the driving signal, where the driving switch 41 is, for example, a TRIAC, and is controlled by the control unit 7 to be conductive or non-conductive, so as to adjust a conductive angle of the driving signal, thereby changing the brightness of the light emitting element 3. The drive signal outputs a power supply when the drive switch 41 is turned on, and the drive signal does not output a power supply when the drive switch 41 is turned off. Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the driving switch 41 is controlled by the control unit 7 to turn on the driving signal to start outputting after an on time p 1,p2,pn,pn+1 after the zero point, and to end when the driving signal continues to the next zero point. Since the extended details of the driving circuit 4 can be deduced by a person skilled in the art from the above description, no description will be given.
The current detection circuit 5 is electrically connected with the light emitting element 3, detects the current of the light emitting element 3 and outputs a current signal.
The communication unit 6 is electrically connected to the control unit 7, so that the control unit 7 and the remote controller 9 can communicate with each other, and a user can control the operation of the lamp by operating the remote controller 9, for example, the user can execute a process of a method for automatically determining the dimming range of the lamp by operating the remote controller 9 (for example, pressing a specific key for a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds or 60 seconds) when the user is powered on). The remote controller 9 may be a general hand-held remote controller, and may communicate with the communication unit 6 using a short-distance wireless communication technology such as Bluetooth (Bluetooth), infrared, wi-Fi, etc., or the remote controller 9 may be a wall-controlled switch, and may be connected with the communication unit 6 by a wire.
The control unit 7 is electrically connected to the power circuit 2, the driving circuit 4 and the current detecting circuit 5, receives the current signal and controls the driving circuit 4 to operate. During a dimming detection period, the control unit 7 controls the driving circuit 4 to gradually decrease the period average voltage of the driving signal, so as to adjust the light of the light emitting element 3 to change from bright to dark, and records a critical dimming information when the current signal corresponds to the light emitting element 3 to start to flash or turn off, and the control unit 7 reduces the dimming range according to the critical dimming information to obtain a dimming lower limit information corresponding to the light emitting element 3 before starting to flash or turn off. The control unit 7 stores the dimming lower limit information, and controls the driving circuit 4 to output the driving signal not lower than the dimming range corresponding to the dimming lower limit information during a normal operation period. The control unit 7 can be designed as a circuit with functions of operation, storage, etc., which can be implemented, for example, using a microcontroller (Microcontroller, abbreviated MCU).
The practical application situation is described as follows:
When the user wants to perform the function of automatically determining the dimming range, the remote control 9 can be operated to control the control unit 7 via the communication unit 6. For example, the automatic dimming detection function may be activated by pressing a specific key within 30 seconds of power-up, or may be configured to perform the automatic dimming detection function together when the remote controller 9 is paired with a lamp, or may be configured to automatically execute the automatic dimming detection programming each time the lamp dimming control system is powered up, and store the obtained usable dimming range for use during the normal operation.
During the dimming detection period, the control unit 7 controls the driving circuit 4 to gradually decrease the period average voltage of the driving signal, for example, in such a manner that the control unit 7 controls the time point p 1、p2、…pn、pn+1 (i.e., the on time) at which the driving switch 41 starts to be turned on to gradually delay, so that the driving signal has the on time t 1、t2、…tn、tn+1 gradually decreases as shown in fig. 3, and thus the period average voltage of the driving signal gradually decreases, and the brightness of the light emitting element 3 gradually turns dark.
The on-time p 1、p2、…pn、pn+1 may be gradually delayed by a fixed time interval Δt (i.e., the on-time t 1、t2、…tn、tn+1 is gradually reduced by the fixed time interval Δt), or may be gradually delayed by a larger time interval Δt 1 according to a predetermined setting, and then be gradually delayed by a smaller time interval Δt 2.
The initial on time may be set to a predetermined time p 1 as shown in fig. 3, or set to 0 (i.e., the output power is started after zero). The predetermined time p 1 may be set according to the actual requirement, for example, may be set to start the dimming detection from about the middle value of the general tunable range (or 1/3 or 1/4 of the general tunable range). In the description of the drive signal of 60Hz, the typical adjustable range is 0 to 8.3ms (0 to 10ms when the drive signal is 50 Hz), so that the dimming detection can be set to be started from 4.15ms (i.e., the intermediate value) or 2.77ms (i.e., about 1/3) or 2.08ms (i.e., about 1/4) after the zero crossing, and thus the time for the dimming detection can be reduced.
During the dimming detection period, when the on time of the driving switch 41 gradually decreases, the power supplied by the driving signal is lower than the power required by the light emitting device 3 for normal operation (for example, when the voltage is too low), the light emitting device 3 will start to flash or turn off (dim). The control unit 7 detects the current of the light emitting element 3 through the current detection circuit 5 to determine a point in time when the current of the light emitting element 3 corresponds to blinking or turning off. For example, when the light emitting element 3 is operating normally, the current will gradually decrease along with the decrease of the power supply provided by the driving signal, when the current corresponding to the current signal decreases to a value lower than a low current value (for example, a value approaching to 0), that is, the current representing the light emitting element 3 is 0, the control unit 7 determines that the light emitting element 3 is turned off, and when the current corresponding to the current signal begins to oscillate up and down, the light emitting element 3 is determined to begin to flash.
When the current of the light emitting element 3 corresponds to blinking or turning off, the control unit 7 records the on-time (or records the on-time) as the critical dimming information. Then, the control unit 7 pushes the recorded on-time forward by an adjustment value, so as to obtain a safe dimmable lower limit value (i.e. the dimming lower limit information) of the on-time, and then uses a period corresponding to the dimmable lower limit value of the on-time as the usable dimming range.
The adjustment value may be a preset value (e.g., 0.1ms, 0.2ms, 0.5ms, 1 ms.) or a time interval Δt between the recorded on-time and the previous on-time or a time interval Δt between the recorded on-time and the previous several (e.g., the first two, the first three, or the first four).
For example, if the light emitting device 3 starts to flash when the on time decreases to t n+1 in fig. 3, the control unit 7 records the on time p n+1 (or records the on time t n+1), subtracts the adjustment value from the recorded on time p n+1 to obtain the usable dimming range (for example, assuming that the recorded on time p n+1 is 4.5ms and the preset adjustment value is 0.2ms, the usable dimming range is 0 to 4.3ms, that is, a period from zero point to 4.3ms, or subtracts the last time interval Δt from the recorded on time p n+1 to obtain the on time p n (that is, the on time p n corresponding to a period returned to the on time t n), and takes a period corresponding to the previous on time p n as the usable dimming range (for example, assuming that the recorded on time p is 28.5 ms, that the previous on time p is 4.4ms, that is 0.4 ms, that is a period from zero point to zero point is 0.4 ms, that is a period from zero point to 4.4ms, that is a period from zero point to 0.4 ms, that is a period from zero point to 4.4 ms).
Then, during the normal operation of the lamp, the control unit 7 controls the driving circuit 4 to output the driving signal corresponding to the usable dimming range according to the obtained usable dimming range, that is, the user can only perform the dimming operation in the usable dimming range. Therefore, the condition that the lamp flashes or is extinguished in the dimming process of a user can be avoided, and the dimming range of each luminous piece 3 can be fully utilized.
Referring to fig. 2 and 4, an embodiment of a method for automatically determining a dimming range of a lamp according to the present invention is applied to the above-mentioned dimming control system of a lamp, and the method for automatically determining a dimming range of a lamp includes the following steps:
In step S01, during a dimming detection period, the control unit 7 controls the driving circuit 4 to gradually decrease the period average voltage of the driving signal, so as to adjust the light of the light emitting element 3 from bright to dark.
In step S01, the control unit 7 controls the on-time of the driving switch 41 to gradually decrease so that the period average voltage of the driving signal gradually decreases.
In step S01, the control unit 7 controls the on-time of the driving switch 41 to gradually delay the on-time, so that the period average voltage of the driving signal gradually decreases.
In step S02, during the dimming detection period, the control unit 7 detects the current of the light emitting element 3, and records a critical dimming message when the current of the light emitting element 3 corresponds to the start of the flashing or the shutdown of the light emitting element 3.
In step S02, the critical dimming information is related to the on time of the driving switch 41 or the off time.
In step S02, the control unit 7 records the on time when the light emitting element 3 starts to flash or turns off as the critical dimming information.
In step S02, the control unit 7 determines that the light emitting element 3 is turned off when the current corresponding to the current signal is lower than a low current value, and determines that the light emitting element 3 starts to flash when the current corresponding to the current signal starts to oscillate up and down.
In step S03, the control unit 7 shortens the dimming range according to the critical dimming information to obtain a dimming lower limit information corresponding to the lighting fixture 3 before starting to flash or turning off.
In step S03, the control unit 7 subtracts an adjustment value from the recorded on-time to obtain the dimming lower limit information, and uses a period corresponding to the calculated on-time as an available dimming range.
In step S04, during a normal operation period, the control unit 7 controls the driving circuit 4 to output the driving signal not lower than the dimming range corresponding to the dimming lower limit information.
In step S04, the control unit 7 controls the driving circuit 4 to output the driving signal corresponding to the usable dimming range.
From the above description, the effects of the present embodiment are as follows:
The driving circuit 4 and the current detecting circuit 5 are arranged, and the control unit 7 is matched to control the cycle average voltage of the driving signal to gradually drop in the dimming detection period, the dimming lower limit information is obtained according to the critical dimming information that the luminous elements 3 start to flash or turn off, and then the control unit 7 is enabled to control the driving circuit 4 to output the driving signal which is not lower than the dimming range corresponding to the dimming lower limit information in the normal operation period, so that the dimming lower limit information of each luminous element 3 can be automatically detected for use in the normal operation period, the situation that the luminous elements 3 flash or turn off in the dimming process can be avoided, and the maximum dimming range of each luminous element 3 can be fully utilized.
