Description

  The present invention relates to a control method for a double stator switched reluctance rotating machine.

The switched reluctance rotating machine has a configuration in which a rotor does not have permanent magnets or windings and operates by a magnetic attractive force generated between the rotor and the stator. In principle, switched reluctance rotating machines have problems such as vibration and noise, but they are simple and robust, can withstand high-speed rotation, and do not require expensive permanent magnets such as neodymium magnets. In recent years, research and development for practical application of a rotating machine with low cost and excellent reliability has been promoted.
As part of this practical application, a double stator structure has been proposed to improve the performance of a switched reluctance rotating machine.

The switched reluctance rotating machine controls the rotation of the rotor by controlling the excitation timing of the salient poles of the stator based on the rotation angle (rotor position) of the rotor. For this reason, if the detection accuracy of the rotation angle of the rotor is low, the operation efficiency is deteriorated. The rotation angle of the rotor is detected by a rotation angle detection sensor such as a resolver or an encoder, and the mounting accuracy of this sensor affects the detection accuracy of the rotation angle of the rotor.
In Patent Document 1 below, the phase of the rotor position angle and the energization waveform is specified at the time of stopping in order to improve the waveform control without increasing the sensor mounting accuracy and to achieve high response, A synchronous motor control method for detecting the rotor position angle based on the phase and the contents of the up / down counter is disclosed.

However, the above prior art has the following problems.
The double stator switched reluctance rotating machine has a configuration including an annular rotor, an outer stator disposed outside the rotor, and an inner stator disposed inside the rotor. The outer stator and the inner stator may have a physical phase shift due to the effect of assembly accuracy. For this reason, even if the conventional technology is applied and zero adjustment (adjustment of the initial value) of the rotation angle detection sensor is performed at the time of stopping, the double stator type switched reluctance rotating machine may not be able to operate efficiently. .

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and can be operated efficiently without depending on the mounting accuracy of the rotation angle detection sensor and without increasing the assembly accuracy of the outer stator and the inner stator. An object of the present invention is to provide a control method for a double stator switched reluctance rotating machine.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention detects an annular rotor, an outer stator disposed outside the rotor, an inner stator disposed inside the rotor, and a rotation angle of the rotor. A double-stator switch that controls the excitation timing of salient poles provided on at least one of the outer stator and the inner stator based on an output value of the rotation angle detection sensor A method for controlling a reluctance rotating machine, wherein a specific one-phase salient pole provided in the outer stator is excited to obtain a first zero reference value for adjusting an initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor. A first step for exciting a specific one-phase salient pole provided in the inner stator and adjusting an initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor; A second step of obtaining a zero reference value, and employ a technique called.
By adopting this method, the present invention excites a specific one-phase salient pole of the outer stator, attracts the rotor by the magnetic attractive force of the salient pole, and obtains the first zero reference value of the rotation angle detection sensor. At the same time, a specific one-phase salient pole of the inner stator is excited, the rotor is attracted by the magnetic attractive force of the salient pole, and the second zero reference value of the rotation angle detection sensor is acquired. Thus, in the present invention, by obtaining two zero reference values on the outer stator side and the inner stator side, zero adjustment of the rotation angle detection sensor is performed in accordance with the operating state of the double stator switched reluctance rotating machine. Since it can be adjusted in stages, efficient operation is possible.

In the present invention, the second step employs a technique in which a salient pole having a phase different from the phase excited in the first step is excited.
By adopting this method, in the present invention, even if the specific one-phase salient pole of the outer stator is excited in the first step, the rotor cannot be attracted, that is, with respect to the specific one-phase salient pole. Even when the rotor is blind, the rotor can be attracted by exciting the salient poles of different phases in the second step, so that the zero reference value of the rotation angle detection sensor is reliably acquired. be able to.

Further, in the present invention, if the rotor is not rotated by one pole on the stator side as a result of the excitation in the first step and the second step, the first step and the second step are repeated again. Adopt a method.
By adopting this method, in the present invention, if the rotor is not rotated by one pole on the stator side as a result of the excitation in the first step and the second step, the rotor becomes a blind spot in either step. Therefore, it is possible to reliably acquire the two zero reference values on the outer stator side and the inner stator side by repeating the first step and the second step again in a state in which the blind spot has been eliminated.

In the present invention, the outer stator and the inner stator are electrically connected in parallel, and a first mode for energizing only the inner stator, a second mode for energizing only the outer stator, A switch for switching the energization mode is provided in the third mode in which both the outer stator and the inner stator are energized. In the first mode, the initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor is set to the second zero. A method of adjusting to a reference value and adjusting the initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor to the first zero reference value in the second mode and the third mode is adopted.
By adopting this method, in the present invention, by switching the energization mode to one or both of the outer stator and the inner stator that are connected in parallel and have different magnetomotive forces, the inner stator alone having a low magnetomotive force is obtained at low output. Thus, the efficiency can be improved by operating the outer stator alone with a large magnetomotive force in the case of medium output and operating with both the outer stator and the inner stator in the case of high output.
In the present invention, in the first mode of the inner stator single operation, the initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor is zero-adjusted with the second zero reference value acquired on the inner stator side, and the second operation of the outer stator single operation is performed. In the mode, the initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor is zero-adjusted with the first zero reference value acquired on the outer stator side, and in the third mode of the outer stator and inner stator joint operation, the outer stator starts. Since the magnetic force is large, efficient operation is possible by zero-adjusting the initial value of the rotation angle detection sensor with the first zero reference value acquired on the outer stator side.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to efficiently operate the double stator switched reluctance rotating machine regardless of the mounting accuracy of the rotation angle detection sensor and without increasing the assembly accuracy of the outer stator and the inner stator. .

  Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional configuration diagram of a double stator switched reluctance motor A according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a double stator type switched reluctance motor A (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as “switched reluctance motor A”) includes an annular rotor 10 and an outer stator 20 disposed outside the rotor 10. And an inner stator 30 disposed inside the rotor 10. The switched reluctance motor A of this embodiment is a U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase three-phase motor, and has three-phase 12/8 poles with 12 poles on the stator side and 8 poles on the rotor side. It has a structure.

  The rotor 10 is fastened and fixed in a state where a plurality of electromagnetic steel plates are laminated in the axial direction. As shown in FIG. 1, the rotor 10 has an annular yoke portion 11, a first salient pole 12 projecting outward from the yoke portion 11, and projecting inward from the yoke portion 11 and in phase with the first salient pole 12. And a second salient pole 13 provided in the above. The yoke part 11 is cylindrical and has a sufficient magnetic thickness. Eight first salient poles 12 are provided on the outer periphery of the yoke portion 11 at 45 ° intervals. Further, eight second salient poles 13 are provided on the inner periphery of the yoke portion 11 at 45 ° intervals having the same phase as the first salient poles 12.

The outer stator 20 is made of an annular magnetic body, and has 12 salient poles 21 provided on the inner circumference at intervals of 30 °, and coils (windings) 22 wound around the salient poles 21. . The coils 22 are arranged in the order of U phase → V phase → W phase → U phase →... Along the circumferential direction.
The inner stator 30 is made of an annular magnetic body, and has 12 salient poles 31 provided on the outer periphery at 30 ° intervals in the same phase as the salient poles 21 and coils wound around the salient poles 31 (windings). 32). Similarly to the coil 22, the coils 32 are arranged in the order of U phase → V phase → W phase → U phase →.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a circuit of the double stator switched reluctance motor A according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
The switched reluctance motor A having the above configuration includes an inverter 40 as shown in FIG. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 41 indicates a DC power source, and reference numeral 42 indicates a smoothing capacitor. Further, although the outer stator 20 is provided with four coils 22 for each phase, only one coil 22 for each phase is shown as a representative for the sake of improved visibility, and the remaining illustrations are omitted. Similarly, in the inner stator 30, four coils 32 are provided for each phase, but only one coil 32 for each phase is shown as a representative for the sake of improved visibility, and the remaining illustrations are omitted. .

  In the switched reluctance motor A of this embodiment, the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 are electrically connected in parallel, and are operated by a single inverter 40. The inverter 40 includes a parallel circuit 50 that connects coils 22 and 32 of corresponding phases of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 in parallel. The parallel circuit 50 is included in an asymmetric half-bridge circuit 45 including two switching elements 43a and 43b and two diodes 44a and 44b.

  The parallel circuit 50 is provided with switches 47a and 47b. The switches 47a and 47b are in an energization mode in a first mode in which only the inner stator 30 is energized, a second mode in which only the outer stator 20 is energized, and a third mode in which both the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 are energized. It is for switching. Specifically, in the first mode, the switch 47a is “OFF” and the switch 47b is “ON”. In the second mode, the switch 47a is “ON”, the switch 47b is “OFF”, and in the third mode. The switch 47a is “ON” and the switch 47b is “ON”.

  In the present embodiment, the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 are connected in parallel, the magnetomotive force of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 is different, and the magnetomotive force of the inner stator 30 is greater than that of the outer stator 20. Is set smaller. The magnetomotive force is determined by the product of the number of coil turns and the current flowing therethrough. In the double stator structure, as shown in FIG. 1, it is structurally difficult to ensure a sufficient winding space on the inner stator 30 side.

  When the magnetomotive force is the same in the switched reluctance motor A, the winding cross-sectional area is reduced to increase the number of windings, or the salient pole 31 of the inner stator 30 is lengthened (deeper) to secure a winding space. A way to do this is considered. However, in the former method, the current density becomes high, and there arises a problem that the motor efficiency decreases due to an increase in copper loss and the temperature of the winding increases. In the latter method, there is a trade-off with the shaft diameter that supports the weight of the entire motor. Therefore, when the shaft diameter is reduced, there is a problem that sufficient mechanical strength cannot be secured against an increase in weight.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, by setting the magnetomotive force of the inner stator 30 to be smaller than that of the outer stator 20, sufficient mechanical strength is ensured as well as reduction in motor efficiency and suppression of coil temperature rise. doing. In addition, when the magnetomotive force of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 is different, there is a concern that the magnetic flux emitted from one side may flow backward to the other, and the motor performance may be deteriorated. It has been confirmed from an electromagnetic analysis test that a sufficient thickness of the yoke portion 11 of the rotor 10 is not adversely affected.

  Further, as in the present embodiment, by connecting the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 in parallel, the effect of improving the motor performance becomes higher than when the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 are connected in series. That is, in the series connection, the inductance is increased and the current is decreased, so that the magnetomotive force of the outer stator 20 driven by the main is greatly decreased. On the other hand, in the parallel connection, the magnetomotive force of the outer stator 20 can be secured, and in addition, the output of the inner stator 30 can be taken out. Therefore, the output is a simple sum of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30, and the motor performance is easy. improves.

  In this embodiment, the efficiency is improved by switching the energization mode to one or both of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 that are connected in parallel and have different magnetomotive forces. That is, in the case of low output, it is better to operate with the inner stator 30 alone corresponding to the low output, and in the case of medium output, it is more efficient to operate with the outer stator 20 alone corresponding to the medium output. This is because, in the case of high output, the efficiency is improved when the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 are operated together to cope with the high output.

FIG. 3 is a graph showing the relationship between efficiency and output by switching the energization mode in the first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 3, it can be seen that when the output is low, it is more efficient to operate the inner stator 30 alone. Further, in the case of medium output, it can be seen that it is more efficient to operate the outer stator 20 alone. Further, it can be seen that in the case of high output, it is more efficient to operate the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 together.
Therefore, according to the present embodiment, switching to the first mode when the output is low, switching to the second mode when the output is medium, and switching to the third mode when the output is high is low. High-efficiency operation from output to high output can be realized (shown by a solid line in FIG. 3).

FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a configuration of inverter control of the double stator switched reluctance motor A according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
In FIG. 4, only one asymmetric half-bridge circuit 45 of the three phases is shown as a representative for the sake of improved visibility, and the other phase asymmetric half-bridge circuit 45 is omitted. The same configuration is also applied to this phase.

As shown in FIG. 4, the switched reluctance motor A includes a resolver (rotation angle detection sensor) 51 that detects a rotation angle (rotor position) of the rotor 10, and an output value of the resolver 51. And a control unit 52 that controls the excitation timing of the salient poles 21 and 31 provided on at least one of the stators 30.
The resolver 51 is for magnetically detecting the rotational angle position and rotational speed of the rotor 10. For example, the resolver 51 is provided on an excitation coil (not shown) provided on the rotor 10 side and on the outer stator 20 side or the inner stator 30 side. A detection coil (not shown) provided.

  The output signal of the resolver 51 is input to the control unit 52. The control unit 52 outputs a gate signal to the switching elements 43a and 43b constituting the inverter 40, and converts the direct current into a three-phase alternating current of U phase, V phase, and W phase by the switching operation of the switching elements 43a and 43b. It converts and supplies to the coils 22 and 32 of each phase. The control unit 52 performs torque control as shown in FIG.

FIG. 5 is a simplified block diagram of torque control of the control unit 52 in the first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 5, when a torque command value is input from the user, the control unit 52 determines a current command value corresponding to the torque command value and a firing angle / extinction from the table data prepared in advance. Get the arc angle command value. Next, the control unit 52 generates PWM from the current command value, the firing angle / extinction angle command value, the phase current acquired from an ammeter (not shown), and the rotor position (resolver signal), A gate signal is output to the switching elements 43a and 43b. The control unit 52 performs PI calculation with a predetermined gain for each input deviation, and performs PI control to match the measured value with the command value.

FIG. 6 is a graph showing the relationship between the resolver signal and the inductance of each phase in the first embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 6A shows the relationship between the resolver signal (electrical machine angle) and the phase angle. FIG. 6B shows the relationship between the inductance of the outer stator 20 (corresponding to the reference symbol Uo in FIG. 1) and the phase angle. FIG. 6C shows the relationship between the inductance of the inner stator 30 (corresponding to the reference symbol Ui in FIG. 1) and the phase angle.

There is a correlation between the inductance and the rotor position, and the salient pole (marked) is opposed to the inductance maximum (Lmax) as shown in FIG. 1, and the salient pole as shown in FIG. (Marked) is in a non-opposing state.
As shown in FIGS. 6B and 6C, the phase angle a when the inductance of the outer stator 20 is maximum (Lmax) and the phase angle b when the inductance of the inner stator 30 is maximum (Lmax) are as follows. In this case, as shown in FIG. 6A, the maximum values of the Uo-phase resolver signal and the Ui-phase resolver signal are also shifted.

  In the switched reluctance motor A, the output varies depending on the firing angle / extinguishing angle. Therefore, the accuracy of the resolver signal is important in order to control the firing angle / extinguishing angle at an appropriate point. In order to enable efficient operation of the switched reluctance motor A, the control unit 52 does not depend on the mounting accuracy of the resolver 51 and does not increase the assembly accuracy of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30. The zero reference value for the zero adjustment of the resolver 51 is acquired in the process as shown in FIG.

FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a process for zero adjustment of the resolver 51 in the first embodiment of the present invention.
First, the outer stator 20 is excited (step S1).
In step S1, a specific one-phase salient pole 21 provided on the outer stator 20 is excited to obtain a first zero reference value for adjusting the initial value of the resolver 51 (first step). When only the outer stator 20 is excited, the switch 47a shown in FIG. 2 is turned “ON” and the switch 47b is turned “OFF”.

  In step S <b> 1, for example, the U-phase salient pole 21 (indicated by reference symbol Uo in FIG. 1) of the outer stator 20 is excited and the rotor 10 is attracted by the magnetic attractive force of the salient pole 21. Then, the output value of the resolver 51 when the salient pole 21 of the outer stator 20 and the first salient pole 12 of the rotor 10 are opposed to each other is acquired as a first zero reference value for zero adjustment of the resolver 51. To do. The first zero reference value is stored in the memory of the control unit 52 as a zero-adjusted value on the outer stator 20 side.

Next, the inner stator 30 is excited (step S2).
In this step S2, the second zero reference value for adjusting the initial value of the resolver 51 by exciting the salient pole 31 of a specific one phase (the same phase as the phase excited by the outer stator 20) provided in the inner stator 30. Is acquired (second step). When only the outer stator 20 is excited, the switch 47a shown in FIG. 2 is set to “OFF” and the switch 47b is set to “ON”.

  In step S <b> 2, for example, the U-phase salient pole 31 (indicated by reference symbol Ui in FIG. 1) of the inner stator 30 is excited and the rotor 10 is attracted by the magnetic attractive force of the salient pole 31. Then, the output value of the resolver 51 when the salient pole 31 of the inner stator 30 and the second salient pole 13 of the rotor 10 are opposed to each other is acquired as the second zero reference value for zero adjustment of the resolver 51. To do. The second zero reference value is stored in the memory of the control unit 52 as a zero-adjusted value on the inner stator 30 side.

  The controller 52 adjusts the initial value of the resolver 51 with the first zero reference value or the second zero reference value according to the energization mode when switching the energization mode according to the rotational load of the rotor 10. Specifically, in the present embodiment, in the first mode of the independent operation of the inner stator 30, the initial value of the resolver 51 is zero-adjusted with the second zero reference value acquired on the inner stator 30 side, and the outer stator 20 alone In the second mode of operation, the initial value of the resolver 51 is zero-adjusted with the first zero reference value acquired on the outer stator 20 side, and in the third mode of the joint operation of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30, the resolver The initial value of 51 is zero-adjusted with the first zero reference value acquired on the outer stator 20 side.

  Thus, in the first mode of the inner stator 30 alone, the ignition angle and the extinction angle can be set with reference to the phase angle b shown in FIG. 6, so that the switched reluctance motor A can be efficiently operated. It becomes possible. In addition, when the outer stator 20 is in the second mode alone, the ignition angle and the extinction angle can be set based on the phase angle a shown in FIG. 6, so that the switched reluctance motor A can be efficiently operated. It becomes. Further, when the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 are in the third mode jointly, the outer stator 20 has a larger magnetomotive force. Therefore, the firing angle and the extinguishing angle should be set based on the phase angle a shown in FIG. Thus, the switched reluctance motor A can be efficiently operated.

  According to this embodiment, the zero adjustment of the resolver 51 is performed in two stages according to the operating state of the switched reluctance motor A by acquiring two zero reference values on the outer stator 20 side and the inner stator 30 side. Therefore, efficient operation at the optimum rotor position becomes possible. In addition to the ease of assembling accuracy of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 during assembly, the accuracy of attaching the resolver 51 can also be eased.

  Therefore, according to the above-described embodiment, the annular rotor 10, the outer stator 20 disposed outside the rotor 10, the inner stator 30 disposed inside the rotor 10, and the rotation angle of the rotor 10 are detected. A double-stator type switched reluctance motor A that controls the excitation timing of salient poles provided on at least one of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 based on the output value of the resolver 51. A first step of exciting a specific one-phase salient pole 21 provided on the outer stator 20 to obtain a first zero reference value for adjusting an initial value of the resolver 51, and an inner A second zero for exciting a specific one-phase salient pole 31 provided on the stator 30 and adjusting the initial value of the resolver 51. By adopting the method of having the second step of acquiring the quasi-value, the double stator can be used regardless of the mounting accuracy of the resolver 51 and without increasing the assembly accuracy of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30. The type switched reluctance motor A can be efficiently operated.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the following description, the same or equivalent components as those of the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is simplified or omitted.

FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional configuration diagram of a double stator switched reluctance motor A in the second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a process for zero adjustment of the resolver 51 in the second embodiment of the present invention.
There are two types of stopping positions of the rotor 10, that is, the facing state shown in FIG. 1 and the non-facing state shown in FIG. 8, but the stopping of the rotor 10 in the non-facing state is a very rare case.
In the second embodiment, even in a state where the rotor 10 is stopped in this non-opposing state, the zero reference value of the resolver 51 is obtained by a process as shown in FIG. 9 in order to enable the zero adjustment of the resolver 51. To get.

In the second embodiment, first, the outer stator 20 is excited (step S1).
In step S1, a specific one-phase salient pole 21 provided on the outer stator 20 is excited (first step). In step S1, for example, when the U-phase salient pole 21 of the outer stator 20 (symbol Uo in FIG. 8) is excited, the rotor 10 has a blind spot, and the magnetic attractive force of the salient pole 21 is balanced. However, the rotor 10 cannot be attracted.

In the second embodiment, next, a phase of the inner stator 30 different from the phase excited by the outer stator 20 is excited (step S2).
In this step S <b> 2, the salient pole 31 of a specific one phase provided in the inner stator 30 (a phase different from the phase excited by the outer stator 20 (for example, Wi phase)) is excited. In this way, even when the Uo phase salient pole 21 is excited in step S1 and the rotor 10 cannot be attracted, the Wi phase salient pole 31 is excited in step S2 as shown in FIG. In addition, the salient pole 31 can attract the rotor 10 without balancing the magnetic attraction force, so that the zero reference value of the resolver 51 can be obtained with certainty.

In the second embodiment, it is next determined whether the rotor 10 is rotated by one pole by exciting the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 (step S3).
In step S3, if the rotor 10 is not rotated by one pole on the stator side as a result of the excitation in steps S1 and S2, steps S1 and S2 are repeated again. That is, if the rotor 10 is not rotated by one pole on the stator side as a result of the excitation in step S1 and step S2, it can be determined that the rotor 10 has become a blind spot in either step. In step S2, since the blind spot is reliably eliminated, the two zero reference values on the outer stator 20 side and the inner stator 30 side are reliably determined by repeating steps S1 and S2 once again with the dead angle eliminated. (In this case, the rotor 10 rotates by one pole on the stator side).

  Therefore, according to the second embodiment described above, even when the rotor 10 is stopped in a non-opposing state, the outer stator 20 side and the inner stator 30 side are excited by exciting different phases of the outer stator 20 and the inner stator 30 respectively. It is possible to reliably obtain the two zero reference values.
