う課題があった。(Problem to be solved by the invention) In the conventional device, when the handle is suddenly reversed,
Due to the influence of the motor's back electromotive force, etc., the rise ratio of the motor current changes, and as shown in Figure 3, a current that far exceeds the current limit value IM flows through the circuit, and this current flows through the FET. There was a problem that the rated value was exceeded and the FET was destroyed.

解決せんとしたものである。(Means for Solving the Problems) The overcurrent protection method for an electric power steering device of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the present invention) provides a bridge for controlling the direction and amount of current supplied to the motor of an electric power steering device. By chopper controlling the configured FETs with two different current limit values for the upper and lower stages, the motor current is prevented from exceeding the FET's rated value even when the handle is suddenly reversed. , which attempts to solve the above-mentioned problems.

3c and 3d are FETs arranged in a bridge shape to control the direction and amount of motor current, 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d
is an internal reverse diode in the FET, 5 is a motor, 6 is a control circuit that controls the above-mentioned FF and T, and the lower stage FF and T are controlled by the 1i current value setting circuit 6a which sets a current limit value called IMO, The circuit configuration is such that the lower FET is controlled by a second current limit value setting circuit 6b that has a current limit value called ITO.
下段のFETだけOFFした場合、モータ電流はフラ
イホイールを行ない徐々に減少する。When only the lower FET is turned off, the motor current performs flywheel and gradually decreases.
つまりフライホイールによるモータ電流の減少の割合に

では後者の■の減少の割合を大きくしようとしたもので
ある。In other words, if the rate of rise of the motor current during the delay time A becomes larger than the rate of decrease of the motor current due to the flywheel, the current will increase indefinitely. Methods for preventing this include (1) shortening the delay time A, and (2) increasing the rate of decrease. The present invention attempts to increase the rate of decrease in the latter (2).

Let it be MO. ) When the current feed bank value exceeds the set value, the upper FET (here 3a) is set to 0FFL.
, the motor current is regenerated to the battery as shown in FIG. By regenerating to the battery, the motor current rapidly decreases and can be kept within the second current limit value ITO as shown in FIG.

グ系の暴走を防止することができるという利点がある。(Effects) As described above, the present invention utilizes a method of chopper-controlling the bridge-configured FET with two different current limit values for the upper and lower stages, so that even when the handle is suddenly reversed, Since the motor current can be kept within the rated value of the FET, there is an advantage in that it is possible to prevent destruction of the FET and, in turn, prevent the steering system from running out of control.
