More particularly, the present invention provides a method of improving the riding comfort by suppressing mechanical vibration of an elevator. The method and apparatus for measuring the size of ripple and reducing the gain of the speed controller to reduce the size of the ripple in order to reduce the size of the ripple if the measured value exceeds a pre-designed threshold, resulting in improved ride comfort. It is about.

Elevators are installed in all high-rise buildings today, and it has long been an essential environment of our living culture. Now, the development of elevator technology is focused on improving stability and riding quality.

The general principle of elevator operation is as follows, referring to FIG. 1.

When a driving signal is input from the passenger who boarded the car 12, an acceleration command is generated, and the acceleration command is transmitted to an integrator (not shown). The speed command (ω _r ^* ) is obtained from the acceleration command inputted through this integrator, and this speed command is provided to the non-inverting terminal (+) of the adder. At this time, the pulse of the frequency mounted on the shaft of the motor 9 and proportional to the rotational speed of the motor, that is, the actual elevator drive speed ω _r , is calculated through the pulse encoder 10 and the inverting terminal (-) of the adder. Is provided.

The adder obtains an error between the speed command 1 and the actual drive speed 2 and outputs the error to the speed controller 3, wherein the speed controller 3 is configured to generate the motor 3 from the error between the speed command and the actual speed. The torque current command value i _q ^* 4 for driving the car 12 according to the input speed command 1 is calculated and transmitted to the current controller 6. The current controller 6, which has received the current command value 4 provided from the speed controller 3, causes the current of the current command value inputted to the electric motor 9 to flow and operates in three phase voltage commands for driving the input speed command. V _a ^* , V _b ^* , V _c ^* ) is calculated and output to the inverter unit 8, wherein the inverter unit 8 outputs the electric motor 9 at the voltage of the voltage command output from the current controller 6. ) To drive the electric motor 9, and according to the drive of the electric motor 9, the hoist 11 converts the linear motion of the car 12 to the rotational motion of the electric motor. The count weight 13 then adjusts the balance of the car 12.

Fig. 6 is a frequency response characteristic diagram showing the magnitude of the output with respect to the change in the input frequency when the speed command generated from the elevator driving management apparatus is input and the speed of the elevator car 12 is output.

The frequencies ω _sc1 and ω _sc2 are response frequencies of the speed controller, and determine the speed following characteristic of the car 12 with respect to the speed command. The higher the frequency, the faster the speed of the car 12 follows the speed command. . However, the frequencies ω ₁ and ω ₂ are the mechanical resonant frequencies of the elevator. If the frequency response at the resonant frequency is greater than 0 dB as shown in the waveform A, vibrations of the resonant frequency components appear in the speed and acceleration of the car while driving, resulting in a lift. It is well known that it is essential to lower the responsiveness at resonant frequency below 0 dB, causing it to be bad.

At this time, if the proportional gain and the integral gain of the speed controller 3 are changed, the frequency response is changed to Shanghai while maintaining the shape. Therefore, a method of suppressing the vibration by adjusting the waveform is known.

However, if the response frequency of the speed controller is lowered more than necessary, the following characteristics of the speed command may be deteriorated. Therefore, the above method cannot be followed.

According to the present invention, when the hoistway rail is bent or the verticality is inferior, the kinetic frictional force between the car 12 and the counter weight 13 and the rail is changed so that a small speed change of the car 12 and the electric motor 9 can be achieved. When the gain of the inverter speed controller is increased to cause the ripple of the torque current command value i _q ^* , which is the output of the speed controller 3, becomes high, this magnitude is transmitted to the car 12 as it is, causing vibration and a ride comfort. We are paying attention to deterioration.

That is, the waveforms of the inverter drive elevator speed, acceleration, and torque current are shown in FIG. 2, and in FIG. 3, which is an enlarged view of the waveform of the torque current, the torque current command value as the speed controller output is large as shown in FIG. In this case, the ripple is transmitted to the electric motor 9 directly through the current controller 6, causing the vibration of the car 12 to decrease, thereby reducing the riding comfort.

As a result of intensive research to solve the above problems, an inverter control method for elevator vibration reduction of an elevator drive system in which an electric motor is controlled through a vector control inverter and the electric motor drives a hoisting machine to vertically move the elevator car and the count weight. Alternatively, the ripple of the torque current, which is the output of the speed controller, is measured, a predetermined ripple threshold is exceeded, and the speed control gain is adjusted through a speed controller gain regulator to adjust the ripple. When the gain of the speed controller is reduced by reducing the size, it has been confirmed that the vibration of the car can be reduced and the riding comfort can be improved as a result without deteriorating the followability of the speed command, thereby completing the present invention.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to reduce the gain of the speed controller by reducing the gain of the speed controller when the ripple of the torque current command value that is the output of the speed controller in a certain speed section is greater than the predetermined limit of the ripple. It is to improve ride comfort by reducing vibration.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First of all, in adding reference numerals to the components of each drawing, it should be noted that the same reference numerals have the same reference numerals as much as possible even if displayed on different drawings. In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that a detailed description of a related known function or configuration may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Figure 4 is a block diagram of an inverter drive elevator of the embodiment according to the present invention.

First, as in the general operation principle, when a driving signal is input from a passenger boarding the car 12, an acceleration command is generated, and the acceleration command is transmitted to an integrator (not shown). The speed command (ω _r ^* ) 1 is obtained from the acceleration command inputted through this integrator, and this speed command 1 is provided to the non-inverting terminal (+) of the adder. At this time, the pulse of the frequency mounted on the shaft of the motor 9 and proportional to the rotational speed of the motor, that is, the actual elevator drive speed ω _r 2, is calculated through the pulse encoder 10 to obtain the inverting terminal of the adder ( -)

The adder obtains an error between the speed command 1 and the actual driving speed 2 and outputs the result to the speed controller 3, wherein the speed controller 3 inputs the motor 3 from the error between the speed command and the actual speed. The torque current command value i _q ^* 4 for driving the car 12 to operate as the speed command 1 is calculated and will be transmitted to the current controller 6.

The torque current command value 4 is

It is calculated with "K _p + K _i / S" (K _p is proportional gain, K _i is integral gain, S is Laplace operator).

The present invention does not transfer the torque current command value 4 directly to the current controller 6, but includes a torque current ripple measuring unit (not shown) therebetween, and as shown in FIG. After the size of is determined in advance, it is determined whether the limit is exceeded.

When the ripple of the torque current exceeds the limit value, the output value of the speed controller 3 is not transmitted to the current controller 6 but is transmitted to the speed controller gain regulator 20 so that the proportional gain is increased. And by adjusting the speed control gain value of the integral gain as a result, the torque current command value 4 is lowered below the threshold value.

The speed controller gain adjuster adjusts the speed control gain as the following relation which can be known through a long repeated test.

"K _p = Jω _sc / K _T "

"K _i = ω _sc K _p × _1/5 "

K _p is proportional gain, J is inertia value, ω _sc is speed controller response frequency, K _T is torque constant and K _i is integral gain.

As shown in FIG. 3 in the constant speed section of the elevator, when the torque ripple returns again within a predetermined limit value, the gain adjustment is completed by stopping reducing the size of ω _sc .

Here, since the following characteristics of the speed command are deteriorated when the response frequency of the speed controller is lowered more than necessary, the ripple limit means a decrease threshold of the speed controller response frequency.

In this way, the current controller 6 which has received the torque current command value 4 provided from the speed controller 3 causes the current of the current command value input to the electric motor 9 to flow and to operate according to the input speed command. The voltage command (V _a ^* , V _b ^* , V _c ^* ) of the phase is calculated and output to the inverter unit 8, wherein the inverter unit 8 is output from the current controller 6 and input voltage of the voltage command. By outputting the electric motor 9 to drive the electric motor 9, according to the drive of the motor 9, the hoist 11 converts the linear motion of the car 12 to the rotational motion of the electric motor. The count weight 13 adjusts the balance of the car 12.

The current controller 6 will be described in more detail.

The three-phase to two-phase converter 11 detects the three-phase current supplied to the electric motor 9 and converts the two-phase current into magnetic flux current i _d and torque current i _q to the current controller 6. And a three-phase voltage proportional to the difference such that the torque current command value 4 inputted through the speed controller 3 and the torque current are equal, and the flux current command value 5 and the magnetic flux current are equal. command (V _a ^*, _b ^* V, ^* V _c) is supplied to the said inverter section (8). In this case, a two-phase to three-phase converter for converting two-phase to three-phase is provided, but is not shown in FIG.

5 is a block diagram illustrating a process diagram of the present invention based on the above description.

In this way, once again, the present invention performs an error calculation between the speed command and the actual driving speed through an adder (S101). Next, the torque current command value is calculated according to the relation "K _p + K _i / S" (S102), and the ripple magnitude of the torque current is measured before transferring it to the current controller (S103).

Then, it is determined whether the ripple magnitude of the torque current exceeds a predetermined ripple limit value (S104), and when it exceeds, the speed control gain value used when calculating the current command value is set to "K _p = Jω _sc / K _T "," K _i = ω _sc K _p x _1/5 "readjust (S110).

In the step S104, when the ripple magnitude of the torque current is smaller than the threshold value or the readjusted value is smaller than the threshold value, the current command value is transmitted or regenerated as it is (S105), and is input to the current controller to undergo a predetermined operation. Next, three-phase voltage commands are generated (S106).

On the other hand, these examples are only for illustrating the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by these examples.

According to the present invention, the torque current command value ripple caused by the change in the kinetic friction force between the car, the counter waiter and the rail and causing the speed change of the motor when the hoist rail bends or falls vertically is limited. By re-adjusting below, the vibration of the car is lowered, and as a result, the riding comfort is improved.

Other effects of the present invention, as well as the matters described in the above-described embodiments and claims of the present invention, as well as potential effects that may occur within the range that can be easily estimated therefrom and potential advantages that contribute to industrial development Add that they will be covered by a wider scope.
