Abstract

PURPOSE:To smoothly switch a rotor position detecting operation mode from a sync operation mode by setting the rotating speed of the detecting operation mode to the same as or lower than that of the sync operation mode. CONSTITUTION:A sync signal 100, a duty ratio command signal 153 in a sync operation mode and a duty ratio command signal 153 in a rotor position detecting operation mode are so set that the rotating speed when the sync mode is shifted to the detecting operation mode becomes the same as or lower than that of the sync mode. A motor is started by a duty ratio d0 at a rotating speed r0 in the sync mode. Thus, switching from the sync mode to the detecting operation mode can be smoothly conducted.

Conventional technology Normally, a brushless motor requires a detector to detect the magnetic pole position of its rotor. Therefore, in such applications, it is necessary to detect the voltage signal induced in the armature winding without using a magnetic pole position detector. However, a voltage signal is induced in the armature winding only when the rotor is rotating, and when the rotor is stationary, the magnetic pole position (-In other words, this voltage signal cannot be used at startup. Therefore, at startup, a specific signal is applied that generates a rotating magnetic field in the armature winding regardless of the rotor's magnetic pole position. This forces the rotor to rotate.

In the operating rotor position detection mode (the rotation speed is determined by the motor characteristics and load condition with respect to the given duty ratio) The number of rotations in the synchronous operation mode, the duty ratio, and the duty ratio in the rotor position detection operation mode should be adjusted so that the rotation speed in the rotor position detection operation mode is the same as or lower than the rotation speed in the synchronous operation mode. By setting this, it is possible to smoothly switch from the synchronous operation mode to the rotor position detection operation mode.

In the figure, 1 to 5 are exactly the same as in Figure 2.6
is a position detection circuit consisting of three filters 61 to 63 and a comparator group 64; 7 is a switching circuit; 8 is a drive signal generation circuit; 9 is a pulse width modulation circuit; 10 is a synchronization signal generation circuit a.
11 is a rotating magnetic field generation circuit 13 is a switching command circuit a 15
is a microcomputer that executes the activation command means 12 in FIG.
Implementation of a brushless motor drive device configured as above, which corresponds to the duty ratio command means 14 and outputs a start command signal 151 to the synchronization signal generation circuit 10 and a duty ratio command signal 153 to the pulse width modulation circuit 9. As an example, the operation will be explained. First, even if the microcomputer 15 outputs the start command signal 151, the switching signal 152, and the duty ratio command signal 153 at the same time, the synchronization signal generation circuit 10i that receives the start command signal 151 will be shown in FIG. Based on this synchronization signal 100, the rotating magnetic field generation circuit 11 outputs the signals 111 to 113 shown in FIG. ~89 is a circuit that switches between the output signal of the position detection circuit 6 and the output signal of the rotating magnetic field generation circuit 11. At startup, the switching signal 1 is used.
52, the output signal 1 of the rotating magnetic field generating circuit 11 is switched to the output signal side of the rotating magnetic field generating circuit 11.
11 to 113 are taken into the drive signal generation circuit 8, which outputs output signals 81 to 86 shown in FIG. 4. These output signals 81 to 83 are further input to the pulse width modulation circuit 9. Pulse width modulation is performed based on the duty ratio command signal 153 set for the synchronous operation mode, and each becomes a drive signal for the transistors Q1 to Q3 of the semiconductor switching element group 2. - Output signals 84 to 86tt of the blade drive signal generation circuit 8, as they are, transistors Q4 to Q6 of the semiconductor switching element group 2
This becomes the drive signal. These drive signals switch the six transistors of the semiconductor switching element group 2, and as a result, a rotating magnetic field is generated in the armature winding 4, the magnet rotor 5 rotates, and the brushless motor 3 is started. At the same time as the start command signal 151 rises, the duty ratio command signal 153 set for the synchronized operation mode with the synchronization signal 100 is output, and the brushless motor rotates. Then, the switching circuit 7 is switched to the position detection circuit 6 side. As a result, the input signals 87 to 89 of the drive signal generation circuit 8 become the output signals 641 to 643 of the position detection circuit 6, and henceforth the induced voltage generated in the armature winding 4 The voltage signals 41 to 43 drive the brushless motor 3, and the switching signal 152 simultaneously outputs a duty ratio command signal set for the rotor position detection operation mode from the microcomputer 15. , the start command signal 151 is released and the series of start operation procedures is reset to the initial state. Among the above series of operations, when the rotation speed is changed from the synchronous operation mode to the rotor position detection operation mode, the rotation speed is synchronous. The synchronous signal [00], the duty ratio command signal 153 in the synchronous operation mode, and the duty ratio command signal 153 in the rotor position detection operation mode are set so that the rotation speed is the same as or lower than the rotation speed in the operation mode.
