Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling a braking process of a drive motor, by means of which a washing drum of a washing machine is driven. At least temporarily during the braking process, a braking current fed back due to an electrical braking voltage induced by the drive motor is conducted to an ohmic resistance by closing an electrical switch.
  • the invention also relates to a drive device and a washing machine, which are each designed to carry out such a method.
  • the electrical energy recovered when the laundry drum is braked can either be stored directly in the intermediate circuit capacitor or converted to heat using an ohmic braking resistor.
  • the braking resistor can be connected in parallel to the DC link capacitor as required.
  • the EP 0 478 807 A1 shows a washing machine in which the duty cycle of the drive motor is adjusted by a control circuit so that the motor temperature does not exceed a certain limit. To reduce the duration of the program, the ratio of the on-time to the off-time can be changed so that the limit temperature is reached as quickly as possible.
  • the drive circuit of a washing machine after the US 2004/0103694 A1 is thus protected from damage caused by an overvoltage from the generator operation of the Drive motor protected during braking that the braking resistor is provided with a thermal overcurrent shutdown.
  • a braking process of a drive motor is controlled, by means of which a washing drum of a washing machine is driven. At least at times during the braking process, a braking current which is fed back on the basis of an electrical braking voltage induced by the drive motor is led to an ohmic resistance, namely by closing an electrical switch.
  • a temperature of the drive motor is determined and a limit value for the temperature is set. The electrical switch is activated during the braking process in such a way that the temperature of the drive motor remains below the specified limit value.
  • a current flow via the ohmic resistance is thus controlled during the braking process in such a way that the temperature of the drive motor does not exceed a predetermined limit value.
  • the control of the current flow via the resistance or the activation of the electrical switch preferably includes that the average current strength of the braking current and / or a duration of the current flow and / or a point in time at which the electrical switch is closed during the braking process, depending on the determined temperature of the drive motor is / are set.
  • the limit value for the temperature of the drive motor can be determined, for example, in a development process of the drive motor and stored in a control device.
  • the method according to the invention has the advantage that the drive motor can be braked quickly by leading the braking current to the resistor without the temperature limit being exceeded.
  • the drive motor had to be designed for the most unfavorable operating conditions (worst case) in order to be able to withstand temperature peaks occurring during the braking process.
  • the drive motor had to be designed for the maximum ambient temperature of the washing machine, for maximum loading of the washing drum and for the longest washing program of the washing machine.
  • the method according to the invention enables the drive motor to be designed for operation at lower temperatures and thus to be produced more cost-effectively.
  • the limit value for the temperature can namely be set in such a way that the drive motor is operated at moderate temperatures and is therefore not overheated.
  • Another advantage of The method according to the invention compared to the prior art consists in the fact that the drive motor does not have to be switched off due to an excessively high temperature during the braking process and a washing process must therefore be interrupted. In the prior art, the drive motor had to be switched off when its temperature exceeded a threshold.
  • the washing machine preferably has a belt drive, so that the laundry drum is driven by the drive motor via a belt.
  • the drive motor is subjected to little thermal stress when braking, and it can be braked quickly at the predetermined temperature limit without being thermally overloaded.
  • the ohmic resistance is preferably formed by a phase strand of a stator of the drive motor, so that the braking current is fed back to the phase strand via the electrical switch.
  • the electrical energy supplied by the drive motor during the braking process is converted directly into heat at the drive motor, so that it is the use of an additional braking resistor as described in the article in the document EP 1 512 785 A1 is used parallel to the DC link capacitor - superfluous.
  • the drive motor also has a significantly higher heat capacity than a braking resistor and can therefore absorb significantly more heat. It can therefore be braked much faster.
  • the drive motor is a multi-phase permanent magnet excited motor, for example a permanent magnet excited synchronous motor or a brushless direct current motor
  • the phase strands can be short-circuited in pairs or all at least temporarily during the braking process of the stator and the braking current can be supplied to the phase strands. It is advantageous if electrical switches already present in an inverter or inverter are used to couple the phase strands to one another.
  • the ohmic resistance, to which the braking current is conducted during the braking process, can thus be formed by the phase strand of the stator or its ohmic resistance.
  • a resistance value of a stator winding can be, for example, in a value range from 0.5 ⁇ to 3 ⁇ ; for example, it can be 1 ⁇ .
  • the current temperature of the drive motor can be determined before the braking process is initiated, and a time course of a rotational speed of the drive motor for the braking process can be predetermined depending on the temperature before the braking process is initiated. It is thus ensured in a simple manner - in particular without a lot of control or regulating effort during the braking process - that the temperature of the drive motor does not exceed the defined limit value during the braking process before the braking process starts.
  • the predetermination of the course of the rotational speed can be, for example, determining an average deceleration and / or a temporal course of the deceleration of the drive motor.
  • relatively high temperature values of the drive motor can occur, so that the deceleration of the drive motor can be predetermined at least for the start of the braking process depending on the determined temperature.
  • the course of the speed can also be continuously controlled during the braking process depending on the current temperature of the drive motor. For example, if the temperature of the drive motor rises relatively rapidly - approaching the limit value - its deceleration would be significantly reduced. In contrast, when the temperature of the drive motor rises relatively moderately, the deceleration can be increased according to the situation.
  • the continuous control of the speed curve as a function of the current temperature of the drive motor has the advantage that it is continuously monitored during the braking process whether the temperature of the drive motor is below the specified limit value.
  • the respective instantaneous temperature of the drive motor can thus also be regulated by appropriate activation of the electrical switch and an associated control of the braking current.
  • the temperature of the drive motor for the braking process is estimated and the electrical switch is controlled as a function of the estimated temperature.
  • a maximum value of the temperature for the braking process can be estimated before the braking process is initiated.
  • Such a prediction of the temperature allows the time course of the speed or deceleration of the drive motor to be predetermined reliably before the braking process is initiated, without the predetermined limit value for the temperature being exceeded. Temperature values for different curves of the speed or different deceleration values for the braking process can also be predicted and compared with one another before the braking process is initiated. Such a course of the speed or such a course of the deceleration can then be predetermined for the braking process, which ensures the maximum possible deceleration of the drive motor without its temperature exceeding the specified limit value.
  • Such a procedure has the advantage that the drive motor is braked quickly on the one hand and is not thermally overloaded on the other hand.
  • the electrical switch is actuated during the braking process in such a way that the drive motor is braked with a maximum possible deceleration, taking into account the limit value for the temperature. In this way, the duration of the braking process is reduced to a minimum without the limit value for the temperature of the drive motor being exceeded.
  • the braking process can be carried out between two successive spin cycles of the drive motor.
  • a period of time between the spin cycles can then be set as a function of the ascertaining temperature of the drive motor, in particular ascertained during the braking process.
  • the time period between the spin cycles is set in particular in such a way that the temperature of the drive motor does not exceed the limit value neither during the later spin cycle nor during a braking process following the later spin cycle. So the time is set so that the temperature of the drive motor can recover enough after the previous spin cycle.
  • the drive motor can be accelerated, for example, to a predetermined spin speed and then braked again without the Limit for the temperature is exceeded.
  • the time between the spin cycles can also be longer than the actual braking process, i.e. the drive motor can first be braked to a desired speed - in particular completely to zero rpm - and the later spin cycle can only be initiated after the drive motor has been braked.
  • the temperature of the drive motor is determined before the braking process is initiated, for example at a spin speed of the drive motor, a point in time at which the braking process is initiated can be determined as a function of this temperature.
  • the time duration of a spin cycle can be varied depending on the current temperature of the drive motor, namely in such a way that the limit value for the temperature of the drive motor is not exceeded during the spin cycle or during the braking process.
  • the braking process can be initiated when the temperature of the drive motor in the spin mode exceeds a threshold value less than the limit value. This threshold value can be selected such that a maximum temperature occurring during the braking process is less than the specified limit value.
  • the temperature of the drive motor can be measured with a sensor.
  • the temperature of the drive motor is determined by means of a control device, by means of which the electrical switch and the drive motor are controlled, with the aid of a map stored in the control device and / or with the aid of a mathematical formula stored in the control device is calculated.
  • the washing machine does not need an additional temperature sensor.
  • the temperature of the drive motor can be dependent on its known parameters, such as a winding resistance of the stator winding or the resistance of the phase phase at a fixed temperature and / or a number of pole pairs.
  • the temperature of the drive motor can also be determined taking into account measured values for a phase current of the drive motor and / or measured values for an intermediate circuit voltage of the voltage intermediate circuit and / or values for a phase voltage.
  • the phase current and the intermediate circuit voltage are in any case in usually measured, namely by a control device.
  • the phase voltage that is applied between the phase strands of the drive motor is also generally known in the control device. An electrical power supplied by the drive motor when braking the drive motor and the temperature of the drive motor can thus be determined without much effort.

  • the third spin cycle of the drive motor 5 begins, in which it is first accelerated to the first speed value n 1 and then to the second speed value n 2 .
  • a braking operation is to be initiated at a time t 11 .
  • the control device 39 determines the current temperature of the drive motor 5 and also calculates a maximum value T max3 to which the temperature T of the drive motor 5 could rise in a subsequent braking operation. The control device 39 determines that a rapid braking of the drive motor 5 would lead to the limit value T G being exceeded.
  • the control device 39 determines a comparatively flat course of the speed n or a relatively moderate deceleration of the drive motor 5 for the subsequent braking operation. Specifically, the control device 39 predetermines such a course of the speed n for the braking process at which the maximum value T max3 is less than the limit value T G. At time t 11 , the braking process begins, in which the drive motor 5 is braked completely until a time t 12 .
  • the control device 39 can set a time period ⁇ t 3 between the third spin cycle and a further spin cycle of the drive motor 5.
  • the control device 39 can therefore predict the temperature T of the drive motor 5 for the respective braking process, even before the braking process is actually initiated. In this prediction, the control device 39 takes into account the loading of the laundry drum 3 or the weight of the laundry items 4, as well as the instantaneous speed n of the drive motor 5. The control device 39 can use this to determine the mechanical energy or the torque of the drive motor 5 from the mechanical one Energy determines the electrical energy and from the electrical energy, taking into account the ohmic resistance of the phase strands 7, 8, 9, the temperature T of the drive motor 5.
  • the control device 39 controls the electrical switches 31, 34, 37 during the braking process of the drive motor 5.
  • the control device 39 can first charge the intermediate circuit capacitor 22 with the energy supplied by the drive motor 5.
  • the electrical switches 30, 33, 36 are first activated, while the switches 31, 34, 37 remain open. If the intermediate circuit capacitor 22 is charged, the switches 30, 33, 36 are opened and the switches 31, 34, 37 - as described above - are activated.
  • the duty cycle of the actuation of the switches 31, 34, 37 and thus the course of the speed n of the drive motor 5 can also be regulated continuously during the respective braking process, namely depending on the current temperature T of the drive motor 5 Temperature T can be reached, depending on the situation, it can be ensured that the temperature T does not exceed the limit value T G. In the event that the temperature T is to exceed the limit value T G , the drive motor 5 is switched off; it is then waited for the temperature T to fall below the limit value T G again. Then the drive motor 5 is put into operation again.
  • a separate braking resistor can be used in the circuit arrangement 6. Such a braking resistor can then be connected in parallel to the intermediate circuit capacitor 22 as required, namely via an electrical switch. Then the energy supplied by the drive motor 5 can first be stored in the intermediate circuit capacitor 22 and then converted into heat at the braking resistor.
  • the electrical switch via which the braking current I B is fed to the separate braking resistor, is then controlled in accordance with the method described above, namely so that the temperature T of the drive motor 5 does not exceed the limit value T G.
