Description

跨坐型車輛straddle vehicle

本發明係關於一種跨坐型車輛。 The present invention relates to a straddle-type vehicle.

例如,於專利文獻1中示出一種跨坐型車輛。專利文獻1之跨坐型車輛係油電混合車輛。專利文獻1之跨坐型車輛具備引擎、ACG啟動器(alternating current generator starter,交流發電機啟動器)、第1電池及第2電池。 For example, Patent Document 1 shows a saddle-riding type vehicle. The saddle-riding vehicle of Patent Document 1 is a hybrid vehicle. The saddle-ridden vehicle of Patent Document 1 includes an engine, an ACG starter (alternating current generator starter), a first battery, and a second battery.

ACG啟動器係永久磁鐵式發電機。ACG啟動器設置於引擎之曲軸之一端部。引擎藉由ACG啟動器之驅動而啟動。第1電池係對ACG啟動器供給電力之48V系電池。第2電池係對複數個輔機供給電力之低電壓12V系電池。ACG啟動器作為發電機發揮功能。對第1電池充電。又,第1電池之電壓引起的電荷儲存於電容器中。該電荷經由變換器對第2電池充電。 ACG starters are permanent magnet generators. The ACG starter is arranged at one end of the crankshaft of the engine. The engine is started by the drive of the ACG starter. The first battery is a 48V battery that supplies power to the ACG starter. The second battery is a low-voltage 12V battery that supplies power to a plurality of auxiliary machines. The ACG starter functions as a generator. Charge the first battery. In addition, the electric charge due to the voltage of the first battery is stored in the capacitor. This electric charge charges the second battery via the inverter.

專利文獻1之跨坐型車輛之第1電池藉由對ACG啟動器供給電力而使引擎啟動。於第1電池之剩餘電容未達設定值之情形時,藉由自第2電池供給之電力使ACG啟動器驅動。 The 1st battery of the saddle-riding vehicle of patent document 1 starts an engine by supplying electric power to an ACG starter. When the residual capacitance of the first battery does not reach the set value, the ACG starter is driven by the power supplied from the second battery.

專利文獻1:國際公開第2018/180650號 Patent Document 1: International Publication No. 2018/180650

跨坐型車輛構成為於行駛時藉由騎乘者之體重移動來控制車輛之姿勢。因此,就操作性及行駛性能之觀點而言,要求跨坐型車輛之車體為小型。 The straddle-type vehicle is configured to control the posture of the vehicle by moving the body weight of the rider while running. Therefore, from the viewpoint of operability and running performance, the vehicle body of the straddle-type vehicle is required to be small.

要求跨坐型車輛抑制引擎啟動性能之降低並且使車體為小型。 The straddle-type vehicle is required to suppress the reduction in engine start-up performance and to make the vehicle body small.

例如,如專利文獻1所示,跨坐型車輛之ACG啟動器不經由齒輪或皮帶輪等減速裝置而連接於曲軸。因此,包含引擎與ACG啟動器之單元之構造簡單,可實現跨坐型車輛之車體之小型化。 For example, as shown in Patent Document 1, the ACG starter of a saddle-riding vehicle is connected to the crankshaft without interposing a reduction gear such as a gear or a pulley. Therefore, the structure of the unit including the engine and the ACG starter is simple, and the miniaturization of the vehicle body of the saddle-riding vehicle can be realized.

不經由減速機而設置於曲軸之ACG啟動器與經由減速裝置連接於曲軸之情形相比,於發揮引擎啟動性能來驅動曲軸之情形時要求輸出較大轉矩。 Compared with the case where the ACG starter provided on the crankshaft without the speed reducer is connected to the crankshaft through the speed reducer, when the crankshaft is driven by the engine starting performance, a larger torque is required to output.

要求跨坐型車輛抑制引擎啟動或輔助性能之降低並且使車體為小型。 The straddle-type vehicle is required to suppress the reduction of engine start or assist performance and to make the vehicle body small.

本發明之目的在於提供一種跨坐型車輛,其可抑制不經由減速機而設置於曲軸之永久磁鐵式發電機之引擎啟動或輔助性能之降低,並且使車體為小型。 An object of the present invention is to provide a straddle-type vehicle capable of suppressing reduction in engine start-up and assisting performance of a permanent magnet generator provided on a crankshaft without a speed reducer, and having a compact vehicle body.

根據專利文獻1之跨坐型車輛,例如第1電池輸出48V以啟動引擎。再者,於第1電池之剩餘電容未達設定值之情形時,電源自第1電池切換成12V系之第2電池。輸出48V以啟動引擎之第1電池由於內置較12V系電池多之單電池,故與一般輸出12V之電池相比更大型。其結果,如專利文獻1所示之跨坐型車輛雖然具備不經由減速裝置而連接於曲軸之ACG啟動器,但反而大型化。即,無法使車體為小型。 According to the saddle-riding vehicle of Patent Document 1, for example, the first battery outputs 48V to start the engine. Furthermore, when the remaining capacitance of the first battery does not reach the set value, the power source is switched from the first battery to the second battery of 12V series. The first battery that outputs 48V to start the engine has more single cells built in than 12V batteries, so it is larger than the general output 12V battery. As a result, the saddle-riding type vehicle as disclosed in Patent Document 1 is provided with an ACG starter connected to the crankshaft without passing through a reduction gear, but on the contrary, the size of the vehicle increases. That is, the vehicle body cannot be made small.

本發明人考慮了有效利用2種蓄電部之方法。 The inventors of the present invention considered a method of effectively utilizing the two types of power storage units.

本發明人除了對具有12V以上之最大額定電壓且蓄積電力之第1蓄電部進行研究以外,還對始終與第1蓄電部串聯連接之第2蓄電部進行了研究。第2蓄電部設定為具有較第1蓄電部之最大充電率大之最大充電率。本發明人進而對追加電流維持電路進行了研究,上述電流維持電路維持如下狀態,即,以施加至第2蓄電部之電壓不超過第2蓄電部之上限電壓之方式產生電壓下降且使充電電流流至第1蓄電部。 The inventors of the present invention have studied, in addition to the first power storage unit having a maximum rated voltage of 12 V or more and storing electric power, the second power storage unit that is always connected in series with the first power storage unit. The second power storage unit is set to have a larger maximum charging rate than the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit. The inventors of the present invention have further studied an additional current maintaining circuit that maintains a state in which a voltage drop is generated so that the voltage applied to the second power storage unit does not exceed the upper limit voltage of the second power storage unit and the charging current is reduced flows to the first power storage unit.

藉此,對第1蓄電部充電期間,可維持如下狀態,即,不將第2蓄電部電性切斷,以施加至第2蓄電部之電壓不超過對第2蓄電部設定之上限電壓之方式使充電電流流至第1蓄電部。 As a result, while the first power storage unit is being charged, a state in which the second power storage unit is not electrically disconnected can be maintained so that the voltage applied to the second power storage unit does not exceed the upper limit voltage set for the second power storage unit. A charging current is made to flow to the first power storage unit.

又,於日本專利特表2014-510657號公報中示出了汽車所具備之第1電壓供給單元與蓄電單元。根據該公報,蓄電單元係根據開關之狀態被切斷,因此,有時發電之最大電壓直接被施加至第1電壓供給單元。於如日本專利特表2014-510657號公報所示之汽車中,一般搭載能以磁場電流調整輸出之交流發電機。 In addition, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-510657 discloses a first voltage supply unit and a power storage unit included in an automobile. According to this publication, since the power storage unit is cut off according to the state of the switch, the maximum voltage of the power generation may be directly applied to the first voltage supply unit. In automobiles such as those disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-510657, an alternator capable of adjusting the output with a magnetic field current is generally mounted.

與此相對,跨坐型車輛藉由具備永久磁鐵式馬達發電機,可使搭載之發電器件小型化。但是,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機不同於交流發電機,無法利用磁場電流來調節發電電力。 On the other hand, the straddle-type vehicle is provided with a permanent magnet type motor generator, so that the mounted power generating device can be reduced in size. However, unlike the alternator, the permanent magnet motor generator cannot adjust the generated electric power using the magnetic field current.

但是,藉由將電流維持電路設為不將第2蓄電部電性切斷而產生電壓下降之構成,可將施加至第1蓄電部之剩餘電壓抑制為適於第1蓄電部之充電。 However, by configuring the current maintaining circuit so as not to electrically disconnect the second power storage unit to cause a voltage drop, the residual voltage applied to the first power storage unit can be suppressed to be suitable for charging the first power storage unit.

蓄電裝置具備具有12V以上之最大額定電壓之第1蓄電部與第2蓄電部,且第1蓄電部與第2蓄電部始終串聯連接,藉此,於蓄電裝置放電時,可輸出大於12V之電壓。藉此,於引擎之啟動或輔助時,能以 大於12V之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機及變流器。藉由第2蓄電部之組合,容易輸出大於12V之電壓。 The power storage device includes a first power storage unit and a second power storage unit with a maximum rated voltage of 12V or more, and the first power storage unit and the second power storage unit are always connected in series, so that when the power storage device is discharged, it can output a voltage greater than 12V . In this way, when the engine is started or assisted, the Voltages greater than 12V drive permanent magnet motor generators and converters. With the combination of the second power storage unit, it is easy to output a voltage greater than 12V.

而且,藉由調整與第1蓄電部組合之第2蓄電部之種類及構成、以及電流維持電路之電壓,可容易地使蓄電裝置放電時之電壓符合永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之能力及要求輸出。即,作為蓄電裝置之輸出電壓,可容易地設定較第1蓄電部之電壓大之電壓。 Furthermore, by adjusting the type and configuration of the second power storage unit combined with the first power storage unit and the voltage of the current maintaining circuit, the voltage at the time of discharging the power storage device can be easily adjusted to the capacity and required output of the permanent magnet motor generator. . That is, as the output voltage of the power storage device, a voltage larger than the voltage of the first power storage unit can be easily set.

第2蓄電部之最大充電率設定為大於第1蓄電部之最大充電率之2倍。因此,於蓄電裝置充電時流經第2蓄電部之電流亦流經第1蓄電部之情形時,第2蓄電部之相對於滿充電之充電率容易高於第1蓄電部之充電率。即,例如,第2蓄電部於較第1蓄電部短之期間內充電。因此,即便於蓄電裝置放電後進行充電之中途,蓄電裝置亦能夠輸出大於12V之電壓,而且,於充電開始後可於短時間內恢復成能夠輸出較大電壓之狀態。 The maximum charging rate of the second power storage unit is set to be more than twice the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit. Therefore, when the current flowing through the second power storage section also flows through the first power storage section when the power storage device is charged, the charging rate of the second power storage section to full charge is likely to be higher than that of the first power storage section. That is, for example, the second power storage unit is charged in a period shorter than that of the first power storage unit. Therefore, even in the middle of charging the power storage device after being discharged, the power storage device can output a voltage greater than 12V, and can return to a state capable of outputting a larger voltage in a short period of time after charging is started.

因此,於引擎之啟動或輔助時,能以大於12V之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機。 Therefore, when the engine is started or assisted, the permanent magnet motor generator can be driven with a voltage greater than 12V.

例如,日本專利特表2014-510657號公報中之第1電壓供給單元與蓄電單元係串聯連接。來自串聯連接之第1電壓供給單元與蓄電單元兩者之電壓供給至對施加電壓要求穩定化之電力組件。於引擎之啟動或輔助時,僅自第1電壓供給單元與蓄電單元中之第1電壓供給單元對作為啟動馬達之第1電氣機械供給電力。第1電壓供給單元係12V之電池。因此,供給至啟動馬達之最大電壓被限制為12V。 For example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-510657, the first voltage supply unit and the power storage unit are connected in series. The voltages from both the first voltage supply unit and the power storage unit connected in series are supplied to the power components that require stabilization of the applied voltage. When the engine is started or assisted, electric power is supplied to the first electrical machine serving as the starter motor only from the first voltage supply unit among the first voltage supply unit and the power storage unit. The first voltage supply unit is a 12V battery. Therefore, the maximum voltage supplied to the starter motor is limited to 12V.

與此相對,於啟動馬達自串聯連接之第1蓄電部及第2蓄電部接受電力供給之情形時,與12V以下之情形相比,啟動馬達可輸出更大轉矩。又,啟動馬達可驅動曲軸達到更高之旋轉速度。因此,可提高跨坐 型車輛之啟動性能或輔助性能。 On the other hand, when the starter motor receives power supply from the first power storage unit and the second power storage unit connected in series, the starter motor can output a larger torque than the case of 12V or less. Also, the starter motor can drive the crankshaft to higher rotational speeds. Therefore, the straddling can be improved The starting performance or auxiliary performance of the type vehicle.

蓄電裝置藉由第1蓄電部與第2蓄電部之組合而可輸出大於12V之電壓。因此,第1蓄電部及第2蓄電部均無須單獨輸出大於12V之電壓。因此,關於以大於12V之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之構成,例如與如專利文獻1般第1蓄電部或第2蓄電部中之至少一者對應於大於12V之電壓之情形相比,可使蓄電裝置之容積小型化。 The power storage device can output a voltage greater than 12V by the combination of the first power storage unit and the second power storage unit. Therefore, neither the first power storage part nor the second power storage part needs to output a voltage greater than 12V independently. Therefore, with regard to the configuration of driving the permanent magnet motor generator at a voltage greater than 12V, for example, as in Patent Document 1, at least one of the first power storage unit or the second power storage unit corresponds to a voltage greater than 12V, The volume of the power storage device can be miniaturized.

又,於蓄電裝置放電之情形及充電之情形這兩種情形時,蓄電裝置與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之間之電壓大於12V。因此,傳輸電力之情形時,可減少在蓄電裝置與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之間流動之電流。因此,可減少電流之損失。又,如上所述,第2蓄電部於較第1蓄電部短之期間內充電。又,由於第1蓄電部係電池,故放電引起之電壓降低量較第2蓄電部小。即,因放電引起之第1蓄電部之電壓降低得以抑制。因此,於自蓄電裝置已放電之狀態開始充電後的短時間內,蓄電裝置可輸出第1蓄電部之電壓加上第2蓄電部之電壓所得之較大電壓。 In addition, in both the case of discharging the power storage device and the case of charging, the voltage between the power storage device and the permanent magnet motor generator is greater than 12V. Therefore, in the case of transmitting electric power, the current flowing between the power storage device and the permanent magnet type motor generator can be reduced. Therefore, the loss of current can be reduced. In addition, as described above, the second power storage unit is charged in a shorter period than the first power storage unit. In addition, since the first power storage unit is a battery, the amount of voltage drop due to discharge is smaller than that of the second power storage unit. That is, the voltage drop of the 1st power storage part by discharge is suppressed. Therefore, the power storage device can output a larger voltage obtained by adding the voltage of the first power storage unit to the voltage of the second power storage unit in a short time after charging starts from the state of the power storage device being discharged.

由於蓄電裝置可輸出較大電壓,故可針對某一損失之容許範圍將蓄電裝置-變流器永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之配線距離設定得較長。其結果,蓄電裝置及變流器於車體中之佈局自由度提高,因此,可調整蓄電裝置及變流器之配置位置,使得能夠抑制配置蓄電裝置及變流器之情形時產生之空間浪費。因此,可使車體為小型。 Since the power storage device can output a large voltage, the wiring distance between the power storage device and the permanent magnet motor-generator of the inverter can be set to be longer for a certain loss tolerance range. As a result, the degree of freedom of the layout of the power storage device and the converter in the vehicle body is improved, so that the arrangement positions of the power storage device and the converter can be adjusted, so that the waste of space generated when the power storage device and the converter are arranged can be suppressed. . Therefore, the vehicle body can be made small.

基於以上見解而完成之本發明之基於各觀點之跨坐型車輛具備以下構成。 The straddle-type vehicle based on each viewpoint of this invention which was completed based on the above knowledge has the following structure.

(1)一種跨坐型車輛,其具備:車輪; 引擎,其具有曲軸,且自上述曲軸輸出藉由燃燒動作產生之用以驅動上述車輪之轉矩;永久磁鐵式馬達發電機,其設置於上述曲軸之一端部,具有永久磁鐵,藉由使上述曲軸旋轉而啟動或輔助上述引擎,並且藉由被上述引擎驅動而發電;第1蓄電部,其係具有12V以上之最大額定電壓且蓄積電力之電池;第2蓄電部,其相對於上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機始終與上述第1蓄電部串聯連接,且具有大於上述第1蓄電部之最大充電率之2倍之最大充電率;變流器,其電性連接於始終和上述第1蓄電部串聯連接之上述第2蓄電部及上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機,且具備對自上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機輸出之電流進行控制之複數個切換部;及電流維持電路,其於上述引擎之啟動或輔助時,自串聯連接之上述第1蓄電部及上述第2蓄電部經由上述變流器向不經由減速機而設置於上述曲軸之一端部之上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機輸出電流,並且於藉由上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機發電而上述變流器至少對上述第1蓄電部充電期間,維持如下狀態,即,不將上述第2蓄電部電性切斷,以施加至上述第2蓄電部之電壓不超過對上述第2蓄電部設定之上限電壓之方式使充電電流流至上述第1蓄電部。 (1) A straddle-type vehicle comprising: wheels; an engine having a crankshaft, and outputting from the crankshaft a torque generated by a combustion operation for driving the wheels; a permanent magnet motor generator provided at one end of the crankshaft and having a permanent magnet, by making the above The crankshaft rotates to start or assist the engine, and generates electricity by being driven by the engine; the first power storage part is a battery that has a maximum rated voltage of 12V or more and stores electric power; the second power storage part is opposite to the permanent magnet A type motor-generator is always connected in series with the first power storage unit, and has a maximum charging rate that is greater than twice the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit; an inverter is electrically connected to the first power storage unit always The above-mentioned second power storage unit and the above-mentioned permanent magnet type motor-generator are connected in series, and are provided with a plurality of switching parts for controlling the current output from the above-mentioned permanent magnet type motor-generator; and a current maintenance circuit for starting the above-mentioned engine Or when assisting, output current from the first power storage unit and the second power storage unit connected in series to the permanent magnet motor-generator provided at one end of the crankshaft without passing through the speed reducer through the inverter, and at The inverter maintains a state in which power is generated by the permanent magnet motor generator and the first power storage unit is charged at least while the second power storage unit is not electrically disconnected and applied to the second power storage unit. A charging current is allowed to flow to the first power storage section so that the voltage of the section does not exceed the upper limit voltage set for the second power storage section.

於上述構成之跨坐型車輛中,藉由具有12V以上之最大額定電壓之第1蓄電部與第2蓄電部始終串聯連接,而於蓄電裝置放電之情形時,可輸出大於12V之電壓。再者,蓄電裝置具備第1蓄電部與第2蓄電部。藉此,於引擎之啟動或輔助時,能以大於12V之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式 馬達發電機及變流器。藉由第2蓄電部之組合,容易輸出大於12V之電壓。 In the straddle-type vehicle with the above configuration, since the first power storage unit and the second power storage unit having a maximum rated voltage of 12V or more are always connected in series, when the power storage device is discharged, a voltage greater than 12V can be output. Furthermore, the power storage device includes a first power storage unit and a second power storage unit. Therefore, when the engine is started or assisted, the permanent magnet type can be driven with a voltage greater than 12V Motor generators and converters. With the combination of the second power storage unit, it is easy to output a voltage greater than 12V.

而且,藉由調整與第1蓄電部組合之第2蓄電部之種類及構成,可容易地使蓄電裝置放電時之電壓符合永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之能力及要求輸出。 Furthermore, by adjusting the type and configuration of the second power storage unit combined with the first power storage unit, the voltage at the time of discharge of the power storage device can be easily matched to the capacity and required output of the permanent magnet motor-generator.

第2蓄電部之最大充電率設定為大於第1蓄電部之最大充電率之2倍。因此,於蓄電裝置充電時流經第2蓄電部之電流亦流至與第2蓄電部處於串聯連接之關係之第1蓄電部的情形時,第2蓄電部之相對於滿充電之充電率容易高於第1蓄電部之充電率。即,例如,第2蓄電部於較第1蓄電部短之期間內充電。因此,即便於蓄電裝置暫且放電之後在充電中途又放電之情形時,蓄電裝置亦能夠輸出大於12V之電壓。 The maximum charging rate of the second power storage unit is set to be more than twice the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit. Therefore, when the current flowing through the second power storage unit during charging of the power storage device also flows to the first power storage unit that is connected in series with the second power storage unit, the charging rate of the second power storage unit to full charge tends to be high The charging rate in the first power storage unit. That is, for example, the second power storage unit is charged in a period shorter than that of the first power storage unit. Therefore, even when the power storage device is once discharged and then discharged in the middle of charging, the power storage device can output a voltage greater than 12V.

第2蓄電部之充電狀態於較第1蓄電部短之期間內發生變化。電流維持電路以第2蓄電部不超過第2蓄電部之上限電壓之方式產生電壓下降。於上述構成之跨坐型車輛中,藉由電流維持電路維持如下狀態,即,以第2蓄電部不超過第2蓄電部之上限電壓之方式使充電電流流至第1蓄電部。因此,例如於第2蓄電部之充電結束後亦可繼續維持對第1蓄電部之充電狀態。 The state of charge of the second power storage unit changes in a period shorter than that of the first power storage unit. The current maintaining circuit generates a voltage drop so that the second power storage unit does not exceed the upper limit voltage of the second power storage unit. In the straddle-type vehicle configured as described above, the current maintaining circuit maintains a state in which the charging current flows to the first power storage unit so that the second power storage unit does not exceed the upper limit voltage of the second power storage unit. Therefore, for example, after the charging of the second power storage section is completed, the state of charging of the first power storage section can be maintained continuously.

又,於上述構成之跨坐型車輛中,於引擎之啟動或輔助時,能以大於12V之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機,因此,與12V以下之情形相比,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機可輸出較大轉矩。又,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機可驅動曲軸達到更高之旋轉速度。因此,於具有設置於曲軸之一端部之永久磁鐵式發電機之跨坐型車輛中,可抑制性能降低。 Furthermore, in the straddle-type vehicle with the above-mentioned configuration, the permanent magnet motor-generator can be driven with a voltage greater than 12V when the engine is started or assisted. Therefore, the permanent-magnet motor-generator can be Larger torque can be output. Also, the permanent magnet motor generator can drive the crankshaft to achieve higher rotational speeds. Therefore, in a saddle-riding type vehicle having a permanent magnet generator provided at one end of the crankshaft, performance degradation can be suppressed.

蓄電裝置藉由第1蓄電部與第2蓄電部之組合而可輸出大於 12V之電壓。因此,第1蓄電部及第2蓄電部均無須輸出大於12V之電壓。因此,關於以大於12V之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之構成,例如與如專利文獻1般第1蓄電部或第2蓄電部中之至少一者對應於大於12V之電壓之情形相比,可使蓄電裝置之容積小型化。 The power storage device can output more than 12V voltage. Therefore, neither the first power storage part nor the second power storage part need to output a voltage greater than 12V. Therefore, with regard to the configuration of driving the permanent magnet motor generator at a voltage greater than 12V, for example, as in Patent Document 1, at least one of the first power storage unit or the second power storage unit corresponds to a voltage greater than 12V, The volume of the power storage device can be miniaturized.

又,於蓄電裝置放電之情形及充電之情形這兩種情形時,蓄電裝置與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之間之電壓大於12V。因此,於傳輸電力之情形時,可減少在蓄電裝置與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之間流動之電流。因此,可減少電流之損失。因此,可針對某一損失之容許範圍將蓄電裝置-變流器永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之配線距離加長。其結果,蓄電裝置及變流器於車體中之佈局自由度提高,因此,可調整蓄電裝置及變流器之配置位置,使得能夠抑制配置蓄電裝置及變流器之情形時產生之空間浪費。因此,可使車體為小型。 In addition, in both the case of discharging the power storage device and the case of charging, the voltage between the power storage device and the permanent magnet motor generator is greater than 12V. Therefore, in the case of transmitting electric power, the current flowing between the power storage device and the permanent magnet type motor generator can be reduced. Therefore, the loss of current can be reduced. Therefore, the wiring distance between the power storage device and the permanent magnet motor-generator of the inverter can be lengthened for a certain loss tolerance range. As a result, the degree of freedom of the layout of the power storage device and the converter in the vehicle body is improved, so that the arrangement positions of the power storage device and the converter can be adjusted, so that the waste of space generated when the power storage device and the converter are arranged can be suppressed. . Therefore, the vehicle body can be made small.

如此,根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,於具有設置於曲軸之一端部之永久磁鐵式發電機之跨坐型車輛中,可抑制引擎啟動或輔助性能之降低並且使車體為小型。 In this way, according to the saddle-riding type vehicle having the above-mentioned configuration, in the saddle-riding type vehicle having the permanent magnet generator provided at one end of the crankshaft, the vehicle body can be made compact while suppressing a reduction in engine starting and assisting performance.

(2)如(1)之跨坐型車輛,其中上述第2蓄電部之上限電壓低於上述第1蓄電部之最大額定電壓。 (2) The straddle-type vehicle according to (1), wherein the upper limit voltage of the second power storage unit is lower than the maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit.

根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,於蓄電裝置充電時,第2蓄電部容易於較第1蓄電部短之期間內充電。因此,第2蓄電部於較輸出12V以上之電壓之第1蓄電部之充電期間短之充電期間內充電。因此,於較短之充電期間之後,亦能夠有效利用第2蓄電部。 According to the straddle-type vehicle having the above-described configuration, when the power storage device is charged, the second power storage unit is easily charged in a period shorter than that of the first power storage unit. Therefore, the second power storage unit is charged in a charging period shorter than the charging period of the first power storage unit outputting a voltage of 12V or more. Therefore, even after a short charging period, the second power storage unit can be effectively used.

(3)如(1)或(2)之跨坐型車輛,其中於上述變流器至少對上述第1蓄電部充電期間,施加至上述第2蓄電 部之上述電壓即第2電壓低於施加至上述第1蓄電部之第1電壓。 (3) The straddle-type vehicle according to (1) or (2), wherein the second power storage unit is applied to the second power storage unit while the inverter is charging at least the first power storage unit. The above-mentioned voltage of the part, that is, the second voltage is lower than the first voltage applied to the above-mentioned first power storage part.

根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,第2電壓低於第1電壓。因此,可不變更自蓄電裝置及變流器接受電壓供給而動作之電動輔機之種類來調整蓄電裝置之電壓。 According to the straddle-type vehicle having the above-mentioned configuration, the second voltage is lower than the first voltage. Therefore, it is possible to adjust the voltage of the power storage device without changing the type of electric auxiliary machine that is operated by receiving the voltage supply from the power storage device and the converter.

(4)如(1)至(3)中任一項之跨坐型車輛,其中上述跨坐型車輛具備與作為電池之上述第1蓄電部並聯連接之電容器。 (4) The straddle-type vehicle according to any one of (1) to (3), wherein the straddle-type vehicle includes a capacitor connected in parallel with the first power storage unit as a battery.

上述構成之跨坐型車輛之第1蓄電部例如即便於因劣化導致充電電容降低之情形時,亦可抑制最大額定電壓之降低,因此,能以最大額定電壓對電容器充電。因此,於引擎之啟動或輔助時,充入電容器之電荷亦可一併對永久磁鐵式馬達發電機輸出電力。 The first power storage unit of the straddle-type vehicle configured as described above can suppress the decrease in the maximum rated voltage even when the charging capacity decreases due to deterioration, for example, so that the capacitor can be charged at the maximum rated voltage. Therefore, when the engine is started or assisted, the electric charge charged into the capacitor can also output power to the permanent magnet motor generator together.

(5)如(1)至(4)中任一項之跨坐型車輛,其中永久磁鐵式馬達發電機具備:轉子,其具有由上述永久磁鐵構成之複數個磁極部;及定子,其具有於上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之周向上隔開間隔地形成有複數個槽之定子芯、及以通過上述槽之方式設置之繞組;且上述磁極部之數量多於上述複數個齒之數量。 (5) The saddle-riding type vehicle according to any one of (1) to (4), wherein the permanent magnet type motor generator includes: a rotor having a plurality of magnetic pole portions composed of the permanent magnets; and a stator having A stator core having a plurality of slots and windings arranged so as to pass through the slots are formed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the permanent magnet motor generator, and the number of the magnetic pole portions is greater than the number of the plurality of teeth.

根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,與磁極部之數量少於複數個齒之數量之情形相比,對於轉子之旋轉速度的角速度更大。 According to the saddle-riding type vehicle having the above-mentioned configuration, the angular velocity with respect to the rotational speed of the rotor is larger than that in the case where the number of the magnetic pole portions is smaller than the number of the plurality of teeth.

角速度係以磁極之重複週期為基準之電角度相關之角速度。若角速度較大,則繞組之電感較大。又,角速度隨著轉子之旋轉速度增大而進一步增大。繞組之電感會妨礙流經繞組之電流。因此,感應電動勢隨著轉子之旋轉速度增大而增大,藉由較大之繞組電感,可抑制自發電機輸出之電 流過度增大。 The angular velocity is the angular velocity related to the electrical angle based on the repetition period of the magnetic pole. If the angular velocity is larger, the inductance of the winding is larger. Also, the angular velocity further increases as the rotational speed of the rotor increases. The inductance of the winding prevents the current flowing through the winding. Therefore, the induced electromotive force increases with the increase of the rotational speed of the rotor, and the electric power output from the generator can be suppressed by the larger winding inductance. The flow is excessively increased.

因此,根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,與磁極部之數量少於複數個齒之數量之情形相比,可將蓄電裝置充電至更高之曲軸旋轉速度。因此,可抑制電力之多餘消耗。 Therefore, according to the straddle-type vehicle having the above-described configuration, the power storage device can be charged to a higher crankshaft rotational speed than in the case where the number of the magnetic pole portions is smaller than the number of the plurality of teeth. Therefore, excessive consumption of electric power can be suppressed.

(6)如(1)至(4)中任一項之跨坐型車輛,其中永久磁鐵式發電機具備:轉子,其具有由上述永久磁鐵構成之複數個磁極部,且不經由減速機而連接於曲軸之一端部;定子,其具有於上述永久磁鐵式發電機之周向上隔開間隔地形成有複數個槽之定子芯、及以通過上述槽之方式設置之定子繞組;複數個被檢測部,其等在周向上隔開間隔地設置於上述轉子;及轉子位置檢測裝置,其設置於與複數個上述被檢測部對向之位置,且具有與上述定子繞組分開設置之檢測用繞組。 (6) The saddle-riding type vehicle according to any one of (1) to (4), wherein the permanent magnet type generator includes a rotor having a plurality of magnetic pole portions composed of the permanent magnets, and which is not connected via a speed reducer. Connected to one end of the crankshaft; a stator having a stator core with a plurality of slots formed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the permanent magnet generator, and a stator winding arranged so as to pass through the slots; a plurality of detected parts, which are provided on the rotor at intervals in the circumferential direction; and a rotor position detection device, which is provided at a position opposite to the plurality of the parts to be detected and has a detection winding provided separately from the stator winding.

(7)如(1)至(6)中任一項之跨坐型車輛,其中上述引擎進而具備構成為內部利用油潤滑之曲軸箱,且上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機設置於與上述油接觸之位置。 (7) The saddle-riding vehicle according to any one of (1) to (6), wherein the engine further includes a crankcase configured to be lubricated with oil inside, and the permanent magnet motor generator is provided in contact with the oil the location.

根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,可在達到較高之曲軸旋轉速度之範圍內不多餘消耗電力而對蓄電裝置充電。因此,於此種永久磁鐵式馬達發電機中,定子繞組之溫度不高於或難以高於油之溫度,因此,即便永久磁鐵式馬達發電機以與油接觸之方式配置,亦可抑制油蒸發。 According to the saddle-riding type vehicle having the above-described configuration, the power storage device can be charged without excessively consuming electric power within the range of reaching a high crankshaft rotational speed. Therefore, in this permanent magnet motor-generator, the temperature of the stator winding is not higher than or difficult to be higher than the temperature of the oil. Therefore, even if the permanent magnet motor-generator is disposed in contact with the oil, oil evaporation can be suppressed. .

例如,於永久磁鐵式馬達發電機配置於與油接觸之環境下之情形時,通常要求使冷卻機構大型化。但是,根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,可抑制或避免冷卻機構大型化。因此,可使車體更小型。 For example, when the permanent magnet type motor generator is placed in an environment in contact with oil, it is generally required to increase the size of the cooling mechanism. However, according to the straddle-type vehicle having the above-mentioned configuration, the cooling mechanism can be suppressed or avoided from being enlarged. Therefore, the vehicle body can be made smaller.

(8)如(1)至(7)中任一項之跨坐型車輛,其中 上述變流器係於上述跨坐型車輛之行駛中,將來自上述第1蓄電部及第2蓄電部之電力供給至上述永久磁鐵式馬達發電機,使永久磁鐵式馬達發電機輔助曲軸之旋轉。 (8) The straddle-type vehicle of any one of (1) to (7), wherein The inverter supplies the electric power from the first power storage unit and the second power storage unit to the permanent magnet motor-generator while the straddle-type vehicle is running, so that the permanent magnet motor-generator assists the rotation of the crankshaft. .

根據上述構成之跨坐型車輛,於跨坐型車輛之行駛中,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機能以大於12V之電壓驅動。因此,與例如以12V驅動之情形相比,可驅動曲軸達到更高之旋轉速度。因此,與例如以12V驅動之情形相比,可輔助藉由引擎之加速,使之達到更高之旋轉速度。進而,與例如設置與12V之蓄電裝置不同之蓄電裝置之情形相比,可使車體更小型。 According to the straddle-type vehicle having the above-mentioned configuration, the permanent magnet motor-generator can be driven with a voltage greater than 12V during the running of the straddle-type vehicle. Thus, the crankshaft can be driven to a higher rotational speed than, for example, driving at 12V. Therefore, the acceleration of the engine can be assisted to achieve a higher rotational speed than in the case of driving with 12V, for example. Furthermore, compared to the case where a power storage device different from a 12V power storage device is provided, for example, the vehicle body can be made smaller.

The second power storage unit is, for example, a lithium ion capacitor. However, the second power storage unit is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, an electric double layer capacitor or an electrolytic capacitor. In addition, the second power storage unit may be, for example, a battery. The second power storage unit may be, for example, a lithium-ion battery (eg, SCiB (registered trademark)) or a nickel-hydrogen battery using a carbon material for the negative electrode. Furthermore, the power storage device includes a first power storage unit, a second power storage unit, and a current maintaining circuit. The power storage device may include other power storage units. Examples of other power storage units include capacitors connected in parallel with the first power storage units. The power storage device does not necessarily have to be unitized as a whole. In other words, each of the power storage units constituting the power storage device does not necessarily have to be physically integrated. The power storage units may be provided at different positions in the saddle-riding vehicle in a state of being electrically connected to each other.

所謂最大充電率係指蓄電部所容許之最大之充電率。充電率表示充電速度。單位為C。於定電流充電測定之情形時,使電池之電容以1小時完全充電之電流之大小定義為1C。例如,於電池之電容為2Ah之 情形時,1C係2A。 The so-called maximum charging rate refers to the maximum charging rate allowed by the power storage unit. The charging rate indicates the charging speed. The unit is C. In the case of constant current charging measurement, the size of the current that allows the battery to fully charge in 1 hour is defined as 1C. For example, in a battery with a capacitance of 2Ah In this case, 1C is 2A.

永久磁鐵式馬達發電機作為發電機發揮功能。又,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機作為馬達發揮功能。永久磁鐵式馬達發電機可作為引擎之啟動馬達發揮功能。永久磁鐵式馬達發電機並無特別限制,例如,亦可不作為啟動馬達發揮功能,而具有於跨坐型車輛加速時輔助引擎之驅動之功能。又,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機例如亦可具有輔助引擎之驅動之功能與啟動馬達之功能這兩種功能。 The permanent magnet type motor generator functions as a generator. Moreover, the permanent magnet type motor generator functions as a motor. The permanent magnet motor generator can function as the starter motor of the engine. The permanent magnet motor generator is not particularly limited. For example, it may not function as a starter motor, but may have a function of assisting the driving of the engine when the straddle-type vehicle accelerates. In addition, the permanent magnet type motor generator may have two functions, for example, a function of assisting the driving of the engine and a function of starting the motor.

永久磁鐵式馬達發電機例如接受電力供給而驅動引擎之曲軸。永久磁鐵式馬達發電機例如不經由離合器而連接於曲軸。於該情形時,即便離合器為動力切斷狀態,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機亦可啟動引擎。又,即便跨坐型車輛為停止狀態,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機亦可發電。 The permanent magnet motor generator, for example, receives electric power and drives the crankshaft of the engine. The permanent magnet motor generator is connected to the crankshaft without interposing, for example, a clutch. In this case, even if the clutch is in a power-off state, the permanent magnet motor generator can start the engine. Moreover, even if the saddle-riding vehicle is in a stopped state, the permanent magnet motor generator can generate electricity.

永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之連接構成並無特別限定,例如,亦可在曲軸與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機之間介置離合器或變速裝置。於該情形時,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機無論引擎之狀態如何,均可進行跨坐型車輛之加速。又,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機無論引擎之狀態如何,均可利用來自車輪之動力發電。於該情形時,跨坐型車輛亦可具備與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機不同之啟動器馬達。 The connection structure of the permanent magnet motor-generator is not particularly limited. For example, a clutch or a speed change device may be interposed between the crankshaft and the permanent magnet motor-generator. In this case, the permanent magnet motor generator can accelerate the saddle-riding vehicle regardless of the state of the engine. In addition, the permanent magnet type motor generator can generate electricity using the power from the wheels regardless of the state of the engine. In this case, the straddle-type vehicle may also have a starter motor different from the permanent magnet motor generator.

永久磁鐵式馬達發電機具有永久磁鐵。例如轉子中具備磁場用線圈而非永久磁鐵之構成與本構成中之永久磁鐵式馬達發電機不同。 Permanent magnet motor generators have permanent magnets. For example, the configuration in which the rotor is provided with coils for magnetic field instead of permanent magnets is different from the permanent magnet type motor generator in this configuration.

所謂「電性切斷」係指例如藉由開關或繼電器之動作使包含對象之電力閉路之一部分成為開狀態。「電性切斷」亦包括使構成閉路之電晶體自導通狀態變為非導通狀態之情況。與此相對,所謂「不電性切斷」係指維持包含對象之電力閉路狀態。「不電性切斷」之狀態亦包括電 流不流至對象之狀態。例如,於對象為已充電之電容器,並且與電容器兩端之電壓相等之電壓施加至電容器的情形時,電流雖不流至電容器,但係未電性切斷之狀態。 "Electrically cut off" means to open a part of the power closed circuit including the object by, for example, the operation of a switch or a relay. "Electrical disconnection" also includes the case where the transistor constituting the closed circuit is changed from the conducting state to the non-conducting state. On the other hand, the so-called "non-electrical disconnection" refers to maintaining the closed state of the electric power including the object. The state of "non-electrically disconnected" also includes electrical The flow does not flow to the state of the object. For example, when the object is a charged capacitor, and a voltage equal to the voltage across the capacitor is applied to the capacitor, the current does not flow to the capacitor, but it is not electrically cut off.

引擎例如係單汽缸引擎、雙汽缸引擎、不等間隔燃燒型三汽缸引擎或不等間隔燃燒型四汽缸引擎。引擎例如係具有少於3個之汽缸之引擎。雙汽缸引擎亦可為具有2個汽缸之不等間隔燃燒引擎。作為具有2個汽缸之不等間隔燃燒引擎,例如可列舉V型引擎。但是,引擎並無特別限定,亦可為等間隔燃燒型多汽缸引擎。 The engine is, for example, a single-cylinder engine, a two-cylinder engine, an unequal-combustion three-cylinder engine, or an unequal-combustion four-cylinder engine. The engine is, for example, an engine with less than 3 cylinders. The twin cylinder engine can also be an unequally spaced combustion engine with 2 cylinders. As the unequal-interval combustion engine having two cylinders, for example, a V-type engine is exemplified. However, the engine is not particularly limited, and an equal-interval combustion type multi-cylinder engine may be used.

跨坐型車輛係指騎乘者騎跨在鞍座上乘坐之形式之車輛。跨坐型車輛係具備鞍座型座部之車輛。跨坐型車輛係騎乘者以騎乘方式乘坐之車輛。跨坐型車輛係車輛之一例。跨坐型車輛係例如以傾斜姿勢迴旋之車輛,構成為當迴旋時朝彎道中心方向傾斜。 A straddle-type vehicle is a vehicle in which the rider sits on a saddle. A saddle-riding vehicle is a vehicle having a saddle-type seat portion. A straddle-type vehicle is a vehicle in which the rider rides in a riding manner. An example of a straddle-type vehicle is a vehicle. A saddle-riding vehicle is, for example, a vehicle that turns in a leaning posture, and is configured to be inclined toward the center of the curve when turning.

跨坐型車輛係例如機車。作為機車,並無特別限定,例如可列舉速克達型、附踏板之輕型、越野型、公路型之機車。又,作為跨坐型車輛,並不限定於機車,例如亦可為三輪車。又,作為跨坐型車輛,例如亦可為ATV(All-Terrain Vehicle,全地形車)等。 A straddle-type vehicle is, for example, a locomotive. Although it does not specifically limit as a locomotive, For example, a scooter type, a light-duty type with pedals, an off-road type, and a road type locomotive can be mentioned.

As described above, the second power storage unit 42 has a maximum charging rate that is twice the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit 41 .

作為第1蓄電部41,例如可列舉具有1C以下之最大充電率之電池。 As the first power storage unit 41, for example, a battery having a maximum charging rate of 1 C or less can be used.

例如,第1蓄電部41係具有1C之最大充電率之電池,第2蓄電部42係具有40C之最大充電率之電池。例如,第1蓄電部41係具有1C之最大充電率之鉛電池。例如,第1蓄電部41係具有6Ah之電容且最大充電電流為6A之鉛電池。於該情形時,第1蓄電部41之最大充電率為1C。 For example, the first power storage unit 41 is a battery having a maximum charging rate of 1C, and the second power storage unit 42 is a battery having a maximum charging rate of 40C. For example, the first power storage unit 41 is a lead battery having a maximum charge rate of 1C.

電流維持電路43係於引擎10啟動時自串聯連接之第1蓄電 部41及第2蓄電部42經由變流器21向永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20輸出電流。又,電流維持電路43於變流器21至少對第1蓄電部41充電期間,維持不將第2蓄電部42電性切斷且使充電電流流至第1蓄電部41之狀態。 The current maintaining circuit 43 is a first power storage connected in series when the engine 10 is started The unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 output current to the permanent magnet motor generator 20 via the inverter 21 . In addition, the current maintaining circuit 43 maintains a state in which the second power storage unit 42 is not electrically cut off and the charging current flows to the first power storage unit 41 while the inverter 21 is charging the first power storage unit 41 at least.

電流維持電路43於對蓄電裝置4充電期間,維持如下狀態,即,以施加至第2蓄電部42之電壓不超過對第2蓄電部42設定之上限電壓之方式使充電電流流至第1蓄電部41。此處言及之「對蓄電裝置4充電期間」係指至少對第1蓄電部41充電之期間。電流維持電路43維持不將第2蓄電部42電性切斷且使充電電流流至第1蓄電部之狀態。 The current maintaining circuit 43 maintains a state in which the charging current flows to the first power storage so that the voltage applied to the second power storage section 42 does not exceed the upper limit voltage set for the second power storage section 42 while the power storage device 4 is being charged. Section 41. The "period for charging the power storage device 4" as used herein refers to a period during which at least the first power storage unit 41 is charged. The current maintaining circuit 43 maintains a state in which the second power storage unit 42 is not electrically cut off and the charging current flows to the first power storage unit.

對第2蓄電部42設定之上限電壓係可對第2蓄電部42施加之上限。對第2蓄電部42設定之上限電壓小於第2蓄電部42之最大額定電壓。作為第2蓄電部42,例如採用具有較第1蓄電部41之最大額定電壓小之最大額定電壓的裝置。於該情形時,採用較第1蓄電部41之最大額定電壓小之上限電壓。例如,採用標稱電壓12V之第1蓄電部41與上限電壓6V之第2蓄電部42。但是,第1蓄電部41與第2蓄電部42之組合不限於此。例如,於採用最大額定電壓為14V之第1蓄電部41之情形時,第2蓄電部42之最大額定電壓小於14V。例如,第2蓄電部42之上限電壓小於14V。又,第1蓄電部41之最大額定電壓亦可為14V以外之電壓。第1蓄電部41之最大額定電壓例如亦可為28V或7V。 The upper limit voltage set to the second power storage unit 42 is the upper limit that can be applied to the second power storage unit 42 . The upper limit voltage set to the second power storage unit 42 is smaller than the maximum rated voltage of the second power storage unit 42 . As the second power storage unit 42 , for example, a device having a lower maximum rated voltage than the maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit 41 is used. In this case, an upper limit voltage smaller than the maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit 41 is used. For example, a first power storage unit 41 with a nominal voltage of 12V and a second power storage unit 42 with an upper limit voltage of 6V are used. However, the combination of the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 is not limited to this. For example, when the first power storage unit 41 having the maximum rated voltage of 14V is used, the maximum rated voltage of the second power storage unit 42 is less than 14V. For example, the upper limit voltage of the second power storage unit 42 is less than 14V. In addition, the maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit 41 may be a voltage other than 14V. The maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit 41 may be, for example, 28V or 7V.

作為電流維持電路43,例如,可列舉與第2蓄電部42並聯連接且與第1蓄電部41串聯連接之電路。於該情形時,當施加至第2蓄電部42之電壓超過上限電壓時,電流維持電路43使自蓄電裝置4流動之電流流至第1蓄電部41。例如,電流維持電路43具有檢測第2蓄電部42之電壓超過上限電壓之情況之電路、及根據檢測使自變流器21流動之電流流至第1蓄電部41 之電路。 As the current maintaining circuit 43 , for example, a circuit connected in parallel with the second power storage unit 42 and connected in series with the first power storage unit 41 can be cited. In this case, when the voltage applied to the second power storage unit 42 exceeds the upper limit voltage, the current maintaining circuit 43 causes the current flowing from the power storage device 4 to flow to the first power storage unit 41 . For example, the current maintenance circuit 43 includes a circuit for detecting that the voltage of the second power storage unit 42 exceeds the upper limit voltage, and the current flowing from the inverter 21 flows to the first power storage unit 41 based on the detection. circuit.

但是,電流維持電路43例如亦可為數量與上限電壓相當之串聯連接之低電壓二極體。又,電流維持電路43亦可與第2蓄電部42串聯連接。 However, the current maintaining circuit 43 can also be, for example, a number of low-voltage diodes connected in series corresponding to the upper limit voltage. In addition, the current maintaining circuit 43 may be connected in series with the second power storage unit 42 .

變流器21例如於引擎10進行燃燒動作之情形時,將永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20發電產生之電力供給至蓄電裝置4。於該情形時,變流器21對永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20發電產生之電流進行整流。 The inverter 21 supplies the electric power generated by the permanent magnet motor generator 20 to the power storage device 4 when the engine 10 performs a combustion operation, for example. In this case, the inverter 21 rectifies the current generated by the permanent magnet motor generator 20 to generate electricity.

又,變流器21藉由對永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20供給電力,而使永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20旋轉。變流器21藉由對流至永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之定子繞組W之電流之接通/斷開進行控制而控制電流。 In addition, the inverter 21 rotates the permanent magnet motor generator 20 by supplying electric power to the permanent magnet motor generator 20 . The inverter 21 controls the current by controlling the on/off of the current flowing to the stator winding W of the permanent magnet motor generator 20 .

變流器21包含切換部211與控制裝置60。控制裝置60係與變流器21物理性地一體設置。控制裝置60藉由控制變流器21之切換部211之動作,而控制自變流器21輸出之電壓。控制裝置60藉由控制變流器21之切換部211之動作,而控制在永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20與蓄電裝置4之間流動之電流。又,控制裝置60控制永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之動作。控制裝置60例如藉由相位控制方式或向量控制而控制自變流器21輸出之電壓。 The inverter 21 includes a switching unit 211 and a control device 60 . The control device 60 is physically integrated with the inverter 21 . The control device 60 controls the voltage output from the converter 21 by controlling the operation of the switching portion 211 of the converter 21 . The control device 60 controls the current flowing between the permanent magnet motor generator 20 and the power storage device 4 by controlling the operation of the switching portion 211 of the inverter 21 . In addition, the control device 60 controls the operation of the permanent magnet motor generator 20 . The control device 60 controls the voltage output from the inverter 21 by, for example, a phase control method or a vector control.

控制裝置60例如以自變流器21輸出之電壓係輸出較第1蓄電部41之最大額定電壓與第2蓄電部42之最大額定電壓之和小之電壓的方式控制變流器21。控制裝置60例如以自變流器21輸出之電壓係輸出較第1蓄電部41之最大額定電壓與第2蓄電部42之上限電壓之和小之電壓的方式控制變流器21。 The control device 60 controls the inverter 21 so that the voltage output from the inverter 21 is smaller than the sum of the maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit 41 and the maximum rated voltage of the second power storage unit 42 , for example. The control device 60 controls the inverter 21 so that the voltage output from the inverter 21 is smaller than the sum of the maximum rated voltage of the first power storage unit 41 and the upper limit voltage of the second power storage unit 42 , for example.

例如,控制裝置60根據來自啟動器開關6之信號,使變流 器21自蓄電裝置4對永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20供給電流。藉此,自蓄電裝置4對永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20供給電力,從而引擎10啟動。 For example, the control device 60 changes the current according to the signal from the starter switch 6 The generator 21 supplies current from the power storage device 4 to the permanent magnet motor generator 20 . Thereby, electric power is supplied from the power storage device 4 to the permanent magnet motor generator 20, and the engine 10 is started.

於引擎10啟動之情形時,蓄電裝置4能以較先前通常採用之12V大之電壓驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20。因此,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20可輸出較12V之情形大之轉矩。因此,可抑制永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之性能降低。 When the engine 10 is started, the power storage device 4 can drive the permanent magnet motor-generator 20 with a voltage greater than 12V, which is generally used in the past. Therefore, the permanent magnet motor generator 20 can output a larger torque than the case of 12V. Therefore, the performance degradation of the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 can be suppressed.

引擎10啟動後,即,燃燒動作開始後,控制裝置60以使來自永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之電流流至蓄電裝置4之方式控制變流器21。藉此,蓄電裝置4藉由永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之發電電力而充電。 After the engine 10 is started, that is, after the combustion operation is started, the control device 60 controls the inverter 21 so that the current from the permanent magnet motor generator 20 flows to the power storage device 4 . Thereby, the power storage device 4 is charged by the electric power generated by the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 .

又,控制裝置60於引擎10啟動後,即,於燃燒動作開始後,可根據加速指示部8(參照圖5)之操作使變流器21將蓄電裝置4之電力供給至永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20。更詳細而言,控制裝置60於跨坐型車輛1之行駛中,對永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20供給來自蓄電裝置4之電力,使永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20輔助曲軸15之旋轉。藉此,利用永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20輔助藉由引擎10之跨坐型車輛1之加速。 In addition, the control device 60 can cause the inverter 21 to supply the electric power of the power storage device 4 to the permanent magnet motor generator according to the operation of the acceleration instructing unit 8 (see FIG. 5 ) after the engine 10 is started, that is, after the combustion operation is started. motor 20. More specifically, the control device 60 supplies the electric power from the power storage device 4 to the permanent magnet motor-generator 20 while the straddle-type vehicle 1 is running, and causes the permanent-magnet motor-generator 20 to assist the rotation of the crankshaft 15 . Thereby, the acceleration of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 by the engine 10 is assisted by the permanent magnet motor generator 20 .

控制裝置60亦具有控制對引擎10之燃料供給及燃燒之引擎控制部之功能。控制裝置60藉由控制作為引擎用輔機發揮功能之電動輔機L之動作而控制引擎10之燃燒。 The control device 60 also functions as an engine control unit that controls fuel supply and combustion to the engine 10 . The control device 60 controls the combustion of the engine 10 by controlling the operation of the electric auxiliary machine L functioning as an auxiliary machine for the engine.

控制裝置60具備未圖示之中央處理裝置及記憶體。控制裝置60藉由執行記憶體中記憶之程式而控制引擎10之燃燒。 The control device 60 includes a central processing unit and a memory which are not shown. The control device 60 controls the combustion of the engine 10 by executing the program stored in the memory.

控制裝置60藉由蓄電裝置4之電力進行動作。更詳細而言,控制裝置60以自蓄電裝置4之電壓以適用於控制裝置60之方式降壓變換後之動作電壓進行動作。降壓變換器例如設置於變流器21。例如於蓄電裝置4具有電 池與電容器之情形時,控制裝置60亦可以自電池之電壓降壓變換後之動作電壓進行動作。 The control device 60 is operated by the electric power of the power storage device 4 . More specifically, the control device 60 operates with the operating voltage converted from the voltage of the power storage device 4 in a manner suitable for the control device 60 . The step-down converter is provided in the converter 21, for example. For example, the power storage device 4 has electricity In the case of a battery and a capacitor, the control device 60 can also operate from the operating voltage after the voltage of the battery is stepped down and converted.

圖2係表示圖1所示之電流維持電路之構成例之方塊圖。於圖2中,為了容易理解電流維持電路之功能,亦示出了第1蓄電部41及第2蓄電部42。於圖2中,示出電容器作為第2蓄電部42之例。 FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of the current maintaining circuit shown in FIG. 1 . In FIG. 2 , the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 are also shown in order to facilitate the understanding of the function of the current maintaining circuit. In FIG. 2 , a capacitor is shown as an example of the second power storage unit 42 .

作為圖2所示之例之電流維持電路43a具備電壓下降產生部431。電壓下降產生部431與第2蓄電部42電性地並聯連接。電壓下降產生部431由於不與第2蓄電部42串聯連接,故不會阻斷第2蓄電部42之電流路徑。電壓下降產生部431並非開關。 The current sustaining circuit 43 a as an example shown in FIG. 2 includes a voltage drop generating unit 431 . The voltage drop generating unit 431 is electrically connected in parallel with the second power storage unit 42 . Since the voltage drop generation unit 431 is not connected in series with the second power storage unit 42 , it does not block the current path of the second power storage unit 42 . The voltage drop generation unit 431 is not a switch.

電壓下降產生部431以施加至第2蓄電部42之電壓不超過對第2蓄電部42設定之上限電壓之方式產生電壓下降。更詳細而言,電壓下降產生部431產生之電壓下降之量與施加至第2蓄電部42之電壓實質上相等。因此,電壓下降產生部431產生不超過上限電壓之量之電壓下降。 The voltage drop generating unit 431 generates a voltage drop so that the voltage applied to the second power storage unit 42 does not exceed the upper limit voltage set to the second power storage unit 42 . More specifically, the amount of voltage drop generated by the voltage drop generation unit 431 is substantially equal to the voltage applied to the second power storage unit 42 . Therefore, the voltage drop generating unit 431 generates a voltage drop not exceeding the upper limit voltage.

即,與第2蓄電部42電性地並聯連接之電壓下降產生部431於不阻斷第2蓄電部42之電流路徑之情況下產生不超過上限電壓之量之電壓下降。 That is, the voltage drop generating unit 431 electrically connected in parallel with the second power storage unit 42 generates a voltage drop that does not exceed the upper limit voltage without blocking the current path of the second power storage unit 42 .

更詳細而言,施加至第2蓄電部之電壓越是上升並接近上限電壓,電壓下降產生部431越是使內部電阻降低。藉此,控制電壓下降之量使其不超過上限電壓。 More specifically, as the voltage applied to the second power storage unit increases and approaches the upper limit voltage, the voltage drop generation unit 431 lowers the internal resistance. Thereby, the amount of voltage drop is controlled so as not to exceed the upper limit voltage.

更詳細而言,電流維持電路43a具備電壓下降產生部431、電壓下降控制部432、反饋部433及基準電壓產生部434。 More specifically, the current maintaining circuit 43 a includes a voltage drop generation unit 431 , a voltage drop control unit 432 , a feedback unit 433 , and a reference voltage generation unit 434 .

基準電壓產生部434產生與上限電壓有關之基準電壓。電壓下降控制部432基於基準電壓與施加至第2蓄電部之電壓,控制電壓下降產生部431中之電壓下降之量。反饋部433使電壓下降控制部432之輸出電壓反映至 輸入。 The reference voltage generating unit 434 generates a reference voltage related to the upper limit voltage. The voltage drop control unit 432 controls the amount of voltage drop in the voltage drop generation unit 431 based on the reference voltage and the voltage applied to the second power storage unit. The feedback unit 433 reflects the output voltage of the voltage drop control unit 432 to enter.

電壓下降產生部431根據施加至第2蓄電部之電壓,類比地控制電壓下降之量。 The voltage drop generation unit 431 analogously controls the amount of voltage drop according to the voltage applied to the second power storage unit.

再者,圖1所示之電流維持電路43之構成不限於圖2所示之電流維持電路43a。雖示出了雙極電晶體作為電壓下降產生部431,但電壓下降產生部431亦可為例如場效電晶體(FET)等電流控制元件。又,雖示出了放大器作為電壓下降控制部432,但電壓下降控制部432亦可為例如數位控制電路。 Furthermore, the configuration of the current maintaining circuit 43 shown in FIG. 1 is not limited to the current maintaining circuit 43a shown in FIG. 2 . Although a bipolar transistor is shown as the voltage drop generation unit 431, the voltage drop generation unit 431 may also be a current control element such as a field effect transistor (FET). In addition, although the amplifier is shown as the voltage drop control unit 432, the voltage drop control unit 432 may be, for example, a digital control circuit.

圖3係表示圖1所示之第1蓄電部41之電壓與第2蓄電部42之一例之充電時之電壓變化之概況的線圖。 FIG. 3 is a graph showing an overview of the voltage of the first power storage unit 41 shown in FIG. 1 and a voltage change during charging of an example of the second power storage unit 42 .

示出了作為第1蓄電部41之例之標稱電壓12V之電池與作為第2蓄電部42之例之標稱電壓6V電池之組合。第1蓄電部41充電前之電壓因放電而成為11V。第2蓄電部42充電前之電壓因放電而成為5.5V。第2蓄電部42具有大於第1蓄電部41之最大充電率之2倍之最大充電率。 A combination of a battery with a nominal voltage of 12 V as an example of the first power storage unit 41 and a battery with a nominal voltage of 6 V as an example of the second power storage unit 42 is shown. The voltage of the first power storage unit 41 before being charged becomes 11V due to discharge. The voltage of the second power storage unit 42 before charging becomes 5.5V due to discharge. The second power storage unit 42 has a maximum charging rate that is twice the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit 41 .

若串聯連接之第1蓄電部41與第2蓄電部42以18V充電,則隨著充電時間經過,第1蓄電部41之第1電壓V1及第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2上升。由於第2蓄電部42具有大於第1蓄電部41之最大充電率之2倍之最大充電率,故第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2與第1蓄電部41之第1電壓V1相比,更快速地上升。即,第2蓄電部42與第1蓄電部41相比,更快速地充電。 When the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 connected in series are charged at 18V, the first voltage V1 of the first power storage unit 41 and the second voltage V2 of the second power storage unit 42 increase as the charging time elapses. Since the second power storage unit 42 has a maximum charging rate that is twice the maximum charging rate of the first power storage unit 41 , the second voltage V2 of the second power storage unit 42 is compared with the first voltage V1 of the first power storage unit 41 . rise faster. That is, the second power storage unit 42 is charged faster than the first power storage unit 41 .

蓄電裝置4之電壓VT係第1蓄電部41之第1電壓V1與第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2之合計。蓄電裝置4之電壓VT例如較無第2蓄電部而單純將第1蓄電部41之規模設為1.5倍之情形時之蓄電裝置之電壓VT'大。例如,自充 電開始起直至蓄電裝置4之電壓VT達到充電電壓之約95%即17.5V為止之時間t1例如較無第2蓄電部而單純將第1蓄電部41之規模設為1.5倍之情形時的蓄電裝置之電壓VT'達到17.5V為止之時間t2短。 The voltage VT of the power storage device 4 is the sum of the first voltage V1 of the first power storage unit 41 and the second voltage V2 of the second power storage unit 42 . The voltage VT of the power storage device 4 is, for example, larger than the voltage VT' of the power storage device when the scale of the first power storage section 41 is simply made 1.5 times without the second power storage section. For example, self-charging The time t1 from the start of electricity until the voltage VT of the power storage device 4 reaches 17.5V, which is about 95% of the charging voltage, is compared with the case where the scale of the first power storage section 41 is simply 1.5 times without the second power storage section, for example. The time t2 until the voltage VT' of the device reaches 17.5V is short.

如此,藉由串聯連接之第1蓄電部41與第2蓄電部42,蓄電裝置4之電壓VT例如較單純擴大第1蓄電部41之規模之情形時之電壓VT'大。 In this way, by connecting the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 in series, the voltage VT of the power storage device 4 is higher than, for example, the voltage VT' when the size of the first power storage unit 41 is simply enlarged.

如圖3之例所示,第2蓄電部42於較第1蓄電部41短之期間內充電,因此,蓄電裝置4可在自蓄電裝置4已放電之狀態開始充電後之短時間內輸出較大之電壓VT。例如,於時刻t1引擎10啟動之情形時,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20亦可以較先前通常採用之12V大之17V驅動。 As shown in the example of FIG. 3 , since the second power storage unit 42 is charged in a shorter period than the first power storage unit 41 , the power storage device 4 can output a relatively high output within a short period of time after the power storage device 4 starts charging from a state in which the power storage device 4 is discharged. Large voltage VT. For example, when the engine 10 is started at time t1, the permanent magnet motor-generator 20 can also be driven by 17V, which is higher than the 12V that was generally used before.

參照圖3,對12V與6V之組合進行了說明。但是,於本實施方式之跨坐型車輛1中,藉由調整第2蓄電部42之種類及構成、及電流維持電路43之上限電壓設定值,可容易地調整蓄電裝置4放電時之電壓。即,可容易地設定較第1蓄電部41之電壓高之電壓作為蓄電裝置4之輸出電壓。例如,於使用標稱電壓12V之電池作為第1蓄電部41之情形時,容易在蓄電裝置4放電後之較短充電時間內將蓄電裝置4能夠輸出之電壓調整為大於12V之要求電壓。 3, the combination of 12V and 6V is explained. However, in the saddle-ridden vehicle 1 of the present embodiment, by adjusting the type and configuration of the second power storage unit 42 and the upper limit voltage setting value of the current maintaining circuit 43, the voltage at the time of discharging the power storage device 4 can be easily adjusted. That is, a voltage higher than the voltage of the first power storage unit 41 can be easily set as the output voltage of the power storage device 4 . For example, when a battery with a nominal voltage of 12V is used as the first power storage unit 41, it is easy to adjust the output voltage of the power storage device 4 to a required voltage greater than 12V within a short charging time after the power storage device 4 is discharged.

於蓄電裝置4可輸出較大電壓之情形時,可針對某一損失之容許範圍容許將蓄電裝置4-變流器21-永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之配線距離加長。其結果,蓄電裝置4及變流器21於車體中之佈局自由度提高。 When the power storage device 4 can output a relatively large voltage, the wiring distance of the power storage device 4 - the inverter 21 - the permanent magnet motor generator 20 can be allowed to be extended for a certain loss tolerance range. As a result, the layout freedom of the power storage device 4 and the inverter 21 in the vehicle body is improved.

圖4(A)係表示跨坐型車輛1中之蓄電裝置4之配置之第1變化例的側視圖。圖4(B)係表示跨坐型車輛1中之蓄電裝置4之配置之第2變化例的側視圖。 FIG. 4(A) is a side view showing a first modification of the arrangement of the power storage device 4 in the saddle-riding vehicle 1 . FIG. 4(B) is a side view showing a second modification of the arrangement of the power storage device 4 in the saddle-riding vehicle 1 .

於圖4(A)所示之第1變化例中,蓄電裝置4配置於車體2之後端部。於圖4(B)所示之第2變化例中,蓄電裝置4配置於車體2之前端部。 In the first modification shown in FIG. 4(A) , the power storage device 4 is arranged at the rear end portion of the vehicle body 2 . In the second modification shown in FIG. 4(B) , the power storage device 4 is arranged at the front end portion of the vehicle body 2 .

由於可容許將蓄電裝置4-變流器21-永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之配線距離加長,故如圖4(A)或圖4(B)所示,蓄電裝置4及變流器21於車體中之佈局自由度提高。因此,可調整蓄電裝置4及變流器21之配置位置,以能夠抑制配置蓄電裝置4及變流器21之情形時產生之空間浪費。因此,可使車體2為小型。 Since the wiring distance between the power storage device 4-inverter 21-permanent magnet motor generator 20 can be lengthened, as shown in FIG. 4(A) or FIG. 4(B), the power storage device 4 and the inverter 21 are placed The freedom of layout in the body is improved. Therefore, the arrangement positions of the power storage device 4 and the converter 21 can be adjusted, so that the space waste generated when the power storage device 4 and the converter 21 are arranged can be suppressed. Therefore, the vehicle body 2 can be made small.

如此,根據跨坐型車輛1,可抑制引擎啟動性能降低並且使車體為小型。 In this way, according to the saddle-riding type vehicle 1 , the vehicle body can be made compact while suppressing a reduction in engine start-up performance.

Exposed surface magnet type (SPM (Surface Permanent Magnet, surface permanent magnet) type).

定子40具有定子芯ST與複數個定子繞組W。定子芯ST具有於周向上隔開間隔地設置之複數個齒部(齒)45。複數個齒部45自定子芯ST朝向徑向外側一體地延伸。本適用例中,於周向上隔開間隔地設置有合計18個齒部45。換言之,定子芯ST具有於周向上隔開間隔地形成之合計18個槽SL。齒部45係於周向上等間隔地配置。 The stator 40 has a stator core ST and a plurality of stator windings W. The stator core ST has a plurality of teeth (teeth) 45 provided at intervals in the circumferential direction. The plurality of teeth 45 integrally extend radially outward from the stator core ST. In this application example, a total of 18 tooth portions 45 are provided at intervals in the circumferential direction. In other words, the stator core ST has a total of 18 slots SL formed at intervals in the circumferential direction. The tooth portions 45 are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction.

轉子30具有數量多於齒部45之數量之磁極部37a。磁極部之數量係槽數之4/3。 The rotor 30 has more magnetic pole portions 37 a than the number of the tooth portions 45 . The number of poles is 4/3 of the number of slots.

於各齒部45之周圍捲繞有定子繞組W。即,複數相之定子繞組W係以通過槽SL之方式設置。於圖7中示出了定子繞組W位於槽SL中之狀態。 The stator winding W is wound around each tooth portion 45 . That is, the stator windings W of the plural phases are arranged so as to pass through the slots SL. The state in which the stator winding W is located in the slot SL is shown in FIG. 7 .

永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20係三相發電機。各定子繞組W屬於U相、V相、W相中之任一個。定子繞組W例如以按照U相、V相、W相之順序排列之方式配置。 The permanent magnet motor generator 20 is a three-phase generator. Each stator winding W belongs to any one of U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase. The stator windings W are arranged, for example, in the order of U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase.

於跨坐型車輛1行駛過程中引擎10處於動作狀態之情形時,藉由永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20發電產生之電力對蓄電裝置4充電。當蓄電裝置4充滿電時,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20發電產生之電力不用於充電,而是藉由例如繞組之短路以熱之形式被消耗。又,於曲軸15之旋轉速度變大至自變流器21輸出至蓄電裝置4之電壓不能控制為額定值之程度的情形時,變流器21以使永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20之定子繞組W發生短路之方式控制切換部211。能夠對蓄電裝置4充電之曲軸15之上限旋轉速度可設定為較高之值。 When the engine 10 is in an operating state while the straddle-type vehicle 1 is running, the power storage device 4 is charged by the electric power generated by the permanent magnet motor generator 20 . When the power storage device 4 is fully charged, the electric power generated by the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 is not used for charging, but is consumed in the form of heat by, for example, a short circuit of the winding. When the rotational speed of the crankshaft 15 increases to such an extent that the voltage output from the inverter 21 to the power storage device 4 cannot be controlled to the rated value, the inverter 21 makes the stator of the permanent magnet motor generator 20 The switching unit 211 is controlled so that the winding W is short-circuited. The upper limit rotation speed of the crankshaft 15 that can charge the power storage device 4 can be set to a higher value.

於發電機發電之情形時,流經定子繞組W之電流會受定子繞組W本身所產生之阻抗之影響。阻抗係妨礙流經定子繞組W之電流之要素。阻抗包含旋轉速度ω與電感之積。此處,旋轉速度ω實際相當於單位時間內通過齒部附近之磁極部之數量。即,旋轉速度ω與發電機中之磁極部數相對於齒部數之比、及轉子之旋轉速度成比例。 When the generator is generating electricity, the current flowing through the stator winding W will be affected by the impedance generated by the stator winding W itself. Impedance is the element that hinders the current flowing through the stator winding W. Impedance consists of the product of the rotational speed ω and the inductance. Here, the rotational speed ω is actually equivalent to the number of magnetic pole portions passing through the vicinity of the tooth portion per unit time. That is, the rotational speed ω is proportional to the ratio of the number of magnetic pole portions to the number of tooth portions in the generator and the rotational speed of the rotor.

圖7所示之永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20具有數量較齒部45之數量多之磁極部37a。即,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20具有數量較槽SL之數量多之磁極部37a。因此,定子繞組W具有較大之阻抗。因此,施加至蓄電裝置4之電壓與例如具有數量較齒部之數量少之磁極部之情形相比減 少。因此,曲軸15之上限旋轉速度與例如12V之情形相比,可設定為更高之值。因此,為了於永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20中增大啟動時之轉矩,可採用電阻較小之粗繞組。 The permanent magnet type motor generator 20 shown in FIG. 7 has more magnetic pole portions 37 a than the number of the tooth portions 45 . That is, the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 has the magnetic pole portions 37a that are larger in number than the number of the slots SL. Therefore, the stator winding W has a larger impedance. Therefore, the voltage applied to the power storage device 4 is reduced in comparison with, for example, a case where the number of magnetic pole portions is smaller than that of the teeth portions. few. Therefore, the upper limit rotational speed of the crankshaft 15 can be set to a higher value than in the case of, for example, 12V. Therefore, in order to increase the torque at the start of the permanent magnet motor generator 20, thick windings with smaller resistance can be used.

又,於永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20,定子繞組W之溫度不高於或難以高於潤滑油之溫度,因此,即便永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20以與潤滑油接觸之方式配置,亦可抑制潤滑油蒸發。因此,可抑制或避免潤滑油之冷卻機構大型化。 In addition, in the permanent magnet type motor generator 20, the temperature of the stator winding W is not higher than or hardly higher than the temperature of the lubricating oil. Therefore, even if the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 is arranged to be in contact with the lubricating oil, it is possible to suppress the Lubricating oil evaporates. Therefore, an increase in size of the cooling mechanism of the lubricating oil can be suppressed or avoided.

The stator winding W is supplied with a current for driving the rotor 30 of the starter motor SG by electromagnetic force, whereas the detection winding 51 is not supplied with a current for driving the rotor 30 of the starter motor SG.

轉子位置檢測裝置50係電磁地檢測被檢測部38,因此,例如與霍耳IC(Integrated Circuit,積體電路)相比,配置之自由度更高。可使引擎單元EU小型化。 The rotor position detection device 50 electromagnetically detects the detected portion 38 , and therefore has a higher degree of freedom of arrangement than, for example, a Hall IC (Integrated Circuit). The engine unit EU can be downsized.

[第2適用例] [Second application example]

圖8係表示具有不同種類之第2蓄電部42之第2適用例之充電時之電壓變化之概況的線圖。 FIG. 8 is a graph showing the outline of the voltage change during charging of the second application example of the second power storage unit 42 having different types.

於圖8所示之第2適用例中,設想電容器作為第2蓄電部42。再者,第1蓄電部41係與圖3所示之例相同之電池。 In the second application example shown in FIG. 8 , a capacitor is assumed as the second power storage unit 42 . In addition, the 1st power storage part 41 is the same battery as the example shown in FIG. 3. FIG.

電容器係不基於化學反應而是利用靜電力蓄積離子等電荷之元件。因此,電容器之電壓與充電量大致成比例。例如,隨著電容器放電,電容器之電壓降低。 Capacitors are devices that use electrostatic force to store electric charges such as ions rather than chemical reactions. Therefore, the voltage of the capacitor is roughly proportional to the amount of charge. For example, as the capacitor discharges, the voltage of the capacitor decreases.

電容器之電容一般具有較具有相等容積之電池小之電容。又,電容器由於不基於化學反應來蓄積電荷,故具有較具有相等容積之電池大之最大充電電流。因此,電容器之最大充電率高於電池。 The capacitance of a capacitor generally has a smaller capacitance than a battery of equal volume. In addition, since the capacitor does not store electric charge by chemical reaction, it has a larger maximum charging current than a battery having the same volume. Therefore, the maximum charge rate of capacitors is higher than that of batteries.

圖8中,表示自作為電容器之第2蓄電部42中充電量因放電而大致成為0%之狀態(時刻0)開始充電時的電壓變化之概況。 In FIG. 8, the outline of the voltage change when charging is started from the state (time 0) where the charge amount of the 2nd power storage part 42 which is a capacitor|condenser becomes substantially 0% by discharge is shown.

於時刻0,充電量大致為0%之第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2b大致為0V。 At time 0, the second voltage V2b of the second power storage unit 42 whose charge amount is substantially 0% is substantially 0V.

由於第2蓄電部42具有較大之最大充電率,故第2蓄電部42之第2電壓 V2b快速上升。第2蓄電部42與第1蓄電部41相比更快速地充電。當第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2b達到上限電壓時,第2電壓V2b藉由電流維持電路43而控制為上限電壓。於圖8之例中,維持為約6V。第2蓄電部42係於第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2b達到上限電壓之前,較第2電壓V2b達到上限電壓之後更快速地充電。快速充電係充電速度、即每單位時間之充電量較大之充電。於圖8所示之例中,第2蓄電部42係於時刻t3之前之期間,以較時刻t3之後之期間大之充電速度充電。與此相對,第1蓄電部41係於時刻t3之前之期間,以較時刻t3之後小之充電速度充電。第1蓄電部41係於時刻t3之後之期間藉由來自電流維持電路43之電流而以較大之充電速度充電。 Since the second power storage unit 42 has a larger maximum charging rate, the second voltage of the second power storage unit 42 V2b rises rapidly. The second power storage unit 42 is charged more rapidly than the first power storage unit 41 . When the second voltage V2b of the second power storage unit 42 reaches the upper limit voltage, the second voltage V2b is controlled to the upper limit voltage by the current maintaining circuit 43 . In the example of FIG. 8, it is maintained at about 6V. The second power storage unit 42 is charged more rapidly before the second voltage V2b of the second power storage unit 42 reaches the upper limit voltage than after the second voltage V2b reaches the upper limit voltage. Fast charging refers to the charging speed, that is, the charging with a larger amount of charge per unit time. In the example shown in FIG. 8 , the second power storage unit 42 is charged at a higher charging rate in the period before time t3 than in the period after time t3. On the other hand, the first power storage unit 41 is charged at a lower charging rate than after the time t3 during the period before the time t3. The first power storage unit 41 is charged at a high charging speed by the current from the current maintaining circuit 43 in the period after the time t3.

蓄電裝置4之電壓VTb係第1蓄電部41之第1電壓V1b與第2蓄電部42之第2電壓V2b之合計。自充電開始起直至蓄電裝置4之電壓VTb達到例如充電電壓之約95%即17.5V為止的時間t3例如較無第2蓄電部而第1蓄電部41之規模單純地成為1.5倍之情形時的蓄電裝置4之電壓VTb'達到17.5V為止之時間t4短。 The voltage VTb of the power storage device 4 is the sum of the first voltage V1b of the first power storage unit 41 and the second voltage V2b of the second power storage unit 42 . The time t3 from the start of charging until the voltage VTb of the power storage device 4 reaches, for example, about 95% of the charging voltage, ie, 17.5 V, is compared with the case where the scale of the first power storage section 41 is simply 1.5 times the size of the first power storage section 41 without the second power storage section, for example. The time t4 until the voltage VTb' of the power storage device 4 reaches 17.5V is short.

圖9係表示圖1所示之蓄電裝置4之變化例之圖。 FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a modification of the power storage device 4 shown in FIG. 1 .

圖9(A)所示之例之蓄電裝置4具備作為第1蓄電部41之電池、及作為第2蓄電部42之電池。於蓄電裝置4設置有電流維持電路43。 The power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG. 9(A) includes a battery as the first power storage unit 41 and a battery as the second power storage unit 42 . The power storage device 4 is provided with a current maintaining circuit 43 .

作為第2蓄電部42之電池之最大充電率大於作為第1蓄電部41之電池之最大充電率之2倍。作為第2蓄電部42之電池之最大額定電壓較作為第1蓄電部41之電池之最大額定電壓小。作為第2蓄電部42之電池之上限電壓較作為第1蓄電部41之電池之最大額定電壓小。作為第2蓄電部42之電池之上限電壓較作為第1蓄電部41之電池之標稱電壓小。 The maximum charging rate of the battery serving as the second power storage unit 42 is greater than twice the maximum charging rate of the battery serving as the first power storage unit 41 . The maximum rated voltage of the battery as the second power storage unit 42 is lower than the maximum rated voltage of the battery as the first power storage unit 41 . The upper limit voltage of the battery as the second power storage unit 42 is lower than the maximum rated voltage of the battery as the first power storage unit 41 . The upper limit voltage of the battery as the second power storage unit 42 is lower than the nominal voltage of the battery as the first power storage unit 41 .

作為第1蓄電部41之電池之標稱電壓例如為12V。作為第2蓄電部42 之電池之標稱電壓例如為6V。作為第2蓄電部42之電池之上限電壓例如為6V。但是,第1蓄電部41與第2蓄電部42之具體電壓組合並無特別限制,例如亦可為8V與6V之組合、例如10V與8V之組合、或11V與8V之組合、或12V與2.5V之組合。 The nominal voltage of the battery as the first power storage unit 41 is, for example, 12V. as the second power storage unit 42 The nominal voltage of the battery is, for example, 6V. The upper limit voltage of the battery as the second power storage unit 42 is, for example, 6V. However, the specific voltage combination of the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 is not particularly limited. For example, it may be a combination of 8V and 6V, such as a combination of 10V and 8V, a combination of 11V and 8V, or a combination of 12V and 2.5V. A combination of V.

圖9(B)所示之例之蓄電裝置4具備作為第1蓄電部41之電池、及作為第2蓄電部42之1個電容器。於蓄電裝置4設置有電流維持電路43。施加至作為第2蓄電部42之1個電容器之最大電壓係對電流維持電路43設定之上限電壓。電流維持電路43之上限電壓根據電容器之耐壓及蓄電裝置4之最大額定電壓而設定。對電流維持電路43設定之上限電壓例如為6V。但是,上限電壓並無特別限制,根據電容器之耐壓及蓄電裝置4,亦可為2.5V或8V或10V。 The power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG. 9(B) includes a battery as the first power storage unit 41 and one capacitor as the second power storage unit 42 . The power storage device 4 is provided with a current maintaining circuit 43 . The maximum voltage applied to one capacitor serving as the second power storage unit 42 is the upper limit voltage set to the current maintaining circuit 43 . The upper limit voltage of the current maintaining circuit 43 is set according to the withstand voltage of the capacitor and the maximum rated voltage of the power storage device 4 . The upper limit voltage set to the current maintaining circuit 43 is, for example, 6V. However, the upper limit voltage is not particularly limited, and may be 2.5V, 8V, or 10V depending on the withstand voltage of the capacitor and the power storage device 4 .

圖9(C)所示之例之蓄電裝置4具備作為第1蓄電部41之電池、及作為第2蓄電部42之2個電容器。藉此,作為電流維持電路43之上限電壓,可設定較1個電容器之耐壓大之電壓。又,第2蓄電部42可輸入及輸出較1個電容器之耐壓大之電壓。 The power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG. 9(C) includes a battery as the first power storage unit 41 and two capacitors as the second power storage unit 42 . Thereby, as the upper limit voltage of the current maintaining circuit 43, a voltage larger than the withstand voltage of one capacitor can be set. In addition, the second power storage unit 42 can input and output a voltage higher than the withstand voltage of one capacitor.

圖9(D)所示之例之蓄電裝置4具備作為第1蓄電部41之電池、及作為第2蓄電部42之3個電容器。藉此,作為電流維持電路43之上限電壓,可設定大於1個電容器之耐壓之2倍之電壓。又,第2蓄電部42可輸入及輸出大於1個電容器之耐壓之2倍之電壓。 The power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG. 9(D) includes a battery as the first power storage unit 41 and three capacitors as the second power storage unit 42 . Thereby, as the upper limit voltage of the current maintaining circuit 43, a voltage greater than twice the withstand voltage of one capacitor can be set. In addition, the second power storage unit 42 can input and output a voltage that is more than twice the withstand voltage of one capacitor.

圖9(E)所示之例之蓄電裝置4相對於圖9(B)所示之例而言,進而具備並聯電容器部44。並聯電容器部44與第1蓄電部41並聯連接。並聯電容器部44具備1個電容器。該構成適合於1個電容器之耐壓大於作為第1蓄電部41之電池之情形。 The power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG. 9(E) is further provided with the parallel capacitor part 44 compared with the example shown to FIG. 9(B). The parallel capacitor unit 44 is connected in parallel with the first power storage unit 41 . The parallel capacitor unit 44 includes one capacitor. This configuration is suitable when the withstand voltage of one capacitor is larger than that of the battery serving as the first power storage unit 41 .

電容器一般可於較釋放相同電力之電池短之期間內供給電力。電容器之內部電阻一般小於電池之內部電阻。又,電容器蓄積與電壓實質上成比例之電力(電荷)。電容器一般可釋放與電壓成比例之電力。 Capacitors generally supply power for a shorter period of time than batteries that deliver the same power. The internal resistance of a capacitor is generally smaller than that of a battery. In addition, the capacitor stores electric power (charge) substantially proportional to the voltage. Capacitors generally discharge power proportional to voltage.

因此,例如因引擎啟動而消耗第1蓄電部41與並聯電容器部44之電力之後,可自第1蓄電部41對並聯電容器部44供給電壓。即,並聯電容器部44可利用第1蓄電部41之電力進行充電。即便於在下一次引擎啟動時第1蓄電部41無法單獨供給啟動所要求之電力之狀況下,並聯電容器部44可供給啟動所要求之電力的可能性亦較高。 Therefore, for example, after the electric power of the first power storage unit 41 and the parallel capacitor unit 44 is consumed by starting the engine, a voltage can be supplied from the first power storage unit 41 to the parallel capacitor unit 44 . That is, the parallel capacitor unit 44 can be charged with the electric power of the first power storage unit 41 . Even in a situation where the first power storage unit 41 alone cannot supply the electric power required for startup at the next engine startup, the shunt capacitor section 44 is highly likely to supply the electric power required for startup.

於圖9(F)所示之例之蓄電裝置4中,相對於圖9(C)所示之例而言,附加有並聯電容器部44。 In the power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG.9(F), the parallel capacitor part 44 is added to the example shown in FIG.9(C).

如圖9(F)所示之例般,第1蓄電部41具有之電容器之數量與並聯電容器部44具有之電容器之數量亦可不同。第1蓄電部41具有之電容器之數量與並聯電容器部44具有之電容器之數量可根據電流維持電路43之上限電壓及作為第1蓄電部41之電池之最大額定電壓而選擇。於圖9(F)所示之例之蓄電裝置4中,並聯電容器部44具備4個電容器。 As shown in FIG. 9(F) , the number of capacitors included in the first power storage unit 41 and the number of capacitors included in the parallel capacitor unit 44 may be different. The number of capacitors included in the first power storage unit 41 and the number of capacitors included in the parallel capacitor unit 44 can be selected according to the upper limit voltage of the current maintaining circuit 43 and the maximum rated voltage of the battery serving as the first power storage unit 41 . In the power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG.9(F), the parallel capacitor part 44 is equipped with four capacitors.

於圖9(G)所示之例之蓄電裝置4中,相對於圖9(D)所示之例而言,附加有並聯電容器部44。於圖9(G)所示之例之蓄電裝置4中,並聯電容器部44具備3個電容器。 In the power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG.9(G), the parallel capacitor part 44 is added to the example shown in FIG.9(D). In the power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG.9(G), the parallel capacitor part 44 is equipped with three capacitors.

電池之數量及電容器之數量並不限於圖9之(A)至(G)所示之數量。 The number of batteries and the number of capacitors are not limited to those shown in (A) to (G) of FIG. 9 .

例如,對於圖7(G)所示之例之蓄電裝置4,並聯電容器部44亦可具備6個電容器。構成第1蓄電部41之電容器與構成並聯電容器部44之電容器之最大額定電壓容易保持平衡。 For example, in the power storage device 4 of the example shown in FIG. 7(G) , the parallel capacitor unit 44 may include six capacitors. The maximum rated voltages of the capacitor constituting the first power storage unit 41 and the capacitor constituting the parallel capacitor unit 44 are easily balanced.

又,進而,對於蓄電裝置4,第1蓄電部41例如亦可具備相互並聯連接之2組電容器之組。電容器之組例如包括串聯連接之3個電容器。於該情形時,第1蓄電部41之電容增大。又,例如,進而並聯電容器部44亦可具備6個電容器。 Furthermore, in the power storage device 4, the first power storage unit 41 may include, for example, a group of two sets of capacitors connected in parallel with each other. The group of capacitors includes, for example, three capacitors connected in series. In this case, the capacitance of the first power storage unit 41 increases. Furthermore, for example, the parallel capacitor unit 44 may further include six capacitors.

並聯電容器部44具有之電容器與第2蓄電部42具有之電容器之種類相同。例如最大額定電壓及靜電容量實質上相等之電容器係同種電容器。例如電壓及靜電容量之標稱值相等之電容器係同種電容器。 The capacitor included in the parallel capacitor unit 44 is of the same type as the capacitor included in the second power storage unit 42 . For example, capacitors with substantially the same maximum rated voltage and capacitance are of the same type. For example, capacitors with the same nominal values of voltage and capacitance are of the same type.

但是,並聯電容器部44具有之電容器與第2蓄電部42具有之電容器之種類亦可互不相同。 However, the types of the capacitors included in the parallel capacitor unit 44 and the capacitors included in the second power storage unit 42 may be different from each other.

圖10係表示圖1所示之跨坐型車輛之電氣構成之變化的方塊圖。 FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing a change in the electrical configuration of the straddle-type vehicle shown in FIG. 1 .

於圖10所示之例中,電動輔機L不自第2蓄電部42接受電力供給而是自第1蓄電部41接受電力供給。 In the example shown in FIG. 10 , the electric auxiliary machine L does not receive power supply from the second power storage unit 42 but receives power supply from the first power storage unit 41 .

藉此,可將第1蓄電部41中蓄積之電力更集中地供給以驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20。例如,於引擎10啟動時,可於更長之期間驅動永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20。 Thereby, the electric power stored in the first power storage unit 41 can be more intensively supplied to drive the permanent magnet motor generator 20 . For example, when the engine 10 is started, the permanent magnet motor generator 20 can be driven for a longer period of time.

又,作為電動輔機L或其一部分,可具備具有較第1蓄電部41及第2蓄電部42之最大合計電壓小之額定電壓的裝置。 In addition, as the electric auxiliary machine L or a part thereof, a device having a rated voltage smaller than the maximum total voltage of the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 may be provided.

再者,圖10所示之例中之主繼電器75a係與18V系統電壓及12V系統電壓兩者對應之雙電路類型。但是,繼電器並無特別限制,例如亦可為獨立之2個繼電器。又,不僅電動輔機L,例如控制裝置60之一部分電路亦可與電動輔機L同樣地構成為不自第2蓄電部42接受電力供給而是自第1蓄電部41接受電力供給。 Furthermore, the main relay 75a in the example shown in FIG. 10 is a dual circuit type corresponding to both the 18V system voltage and the 12V system voltage. However, the relays are not particularly limited, and for example, two independent relays may be used. In addition to the electric auxiliary machine L, for example, a part of the circuit of the control device 60 may be configured not to receive power supply from the second power storage unit 42 but to receive power supply from the first power storage unit 41 , similarly to the electric auxiliary machine L.

又,跨坐型車輛亦可具備與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20不同之啟動器馬達。即,跨坐型車輛亦可具備永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20與啟動器馬達。於該情形時,啟動器馬達電性地設置於圖10之例中之電動輔機L之位置。於該情形時,啟動器馬達經由與啟動器開關6連動之開關而自第1蓄電部41接受電力供給。於該情形時,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20輔助藉由啟動器馬達之引擎啟動。即,啟動器馬達接受電力供給而驅動曲軸15之期間之至少一部分係與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20接受電力供給而驅動曲軸15之期間之至少一部分重疊。 In addition, the saddle-riding type vehicle may be provided with a starter motor different from the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 . That is, the straddle-type vehicle may include the permanent magnet motor generator 20 and the starter motor. In this case, the starter motor is electrically set at the position of the electric auxiliary machine L in the example of FIG. 10 . In this case, the starter motor receives power supply from the first power storage unit 41 via a switch linked to the starter switch 6 . In this case, the permanent magnet motor generator 20 assists the engine starting by the starter motor. That is, at least a part of the period during which the starter motor is supplied with power to drive the crankshaft 15 overlaps with at least a part of the period during which the permanent magnet motor generator 20 is supplied with power and drives the crankshaft 15 .

即,啟動器馬達自第1蓄電部41接受例如12V之電壓供給。永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20自串聯連接之第1蓄電部41及第2蓄電部42接受電力供給。即,永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20例如接受大於12V之電壓供給。 That is, the starter motor receives, for example, a voltage supply of 12V from the first power storage unit 41 . The permanent magnet motor generator 20 receives power supply from the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 connected in series. That is, the permanent magnet type motor generator 20 receives the voltage supply of more than 12V, for example.

但是,跨坐型車輛之變化中之啟動器馬達之電力供給路徑並不限於上述說明之構成。例如,啟動器馬達亦可與永久磁鐵式馬達發電機20同樣地,自串聯連接之第1蓄電部41及第2蓄電部42接受電力供給。 However, the electric power supply path of the starter motor in the variant of the saddle-riding type vehicle is not limited to the configuration described above. For example, the starter motor may receive power supply from the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 connected in series, similarly to the permanent magnet motor generator 20 .

又,例如,藉由進而具備電源路徑之切換部,例如,亦可於第1蓄電部41之電壓大於基準之情形時,啟動器馬達自第1蓄電部41接受電力供給,並且,於第1蓄電部41之電壓小於基準之情形時,自串聯連接之第1蓄電部41及第2蓄電部42接受電力供給。 In addition, for example, by further including a switching portion for the power supply path, for example, when the voltage of the first power storage portion 41 is greater than a reference, the starter motor may receive power supply from the first power storage portion 41, and the first power storage portion 41 When the voltage of the power storage unit 41 is lower than the reference, power supply is received from the first power storage unit 41 and the second power storage unit 42 connected in series.
