Description
Apparatus for controlling series wound D.C. machines
The present invention relates to an apparatus for con¬ trolling series wound DC machines with the possibility of maintaining different currents in field and armature wind- ings, more specifically to such a machine having an ele¬ ment with a diode function connected in parallel with the field winding and a first switching element connected be¬ tween the field winding and one pole of the supplying DC source. Different forms of rotation speed control and the re¬ gulation of DC machines using a chopper are already known, see e.g. EP 0 054 614 and GB 1 422 965. The basic concept is that by controlling the pulse ratio of the chopper the mean value of the output voltage can be controlled, thus regulating the D.C. machine.
Single, double and quadruple choppers are envisaged, depending on the number of quadrants in which the chopper operates. This may be seen from Figs 1 and 2, Fig 1 illu¬ strating the operational cases for the different quadrants in the current-E F plane for a DC machine, and fig 2 is a diagram of the machine defining the positive reference directions of current i and electromotive force E.
With a single quadrant chopper, for example, a DC machine may be driven forward but not braked. With a double quadrant chopper, a DC machine may also be electrically bra ed by feeding the mechanical kinetic energy stored in motor and load back to a driving energy source i.e. the motor goe over to operation as a generator. Such regenerative braking of separately magnetised DC motors is previously known and often used in different applications, e.g. SE 385 360, US 3 984 743 and DE 3 717 279.
Common to all previously known solutions for regulat¬ ing DC machines with choppers, while enabling regenerative braking of the machine, is that they are complicated and
require a relatively large number of components.
The object of the present invention is to provide a new apparatus for controlling series wound DC machines for doubl quadrant motor/generator operation with feed back of energy for braking without mechanical switching of the armature or series field winding, which apparatus is much simpler than constructions already known and requires a minimum of com¬ ponents.
This object is attained with an apparatus of the kind mentioned in the introduction and having the characteriz¬ ing features disclosed in claim 1.
With the device in accordance with the invention there is thus achieved electrical braking of the machine with feed back of energy to the supply source without mechanical switching with the aid of contactors or the like, and with a considerably simpler, and consequently cheaper, circuit than has been known earlier. A still further advantage with the apparatus according to the invention is that a current can be maintained through the field winding without any mea current passing through the armature, this operational case being utilisable for preventing the motor running away. In this way e.g. impermissible high speeds in vehicle operatio can be avoided, without an extra shunt winding needing to be arranged. By suitable controlling the switching element shall con duct/block current in the positive direction, and at least conduct current in the negative direction. In accordance with a further advantageous development of the apparatus according to the invention, the switching elements are fiel effect transistors (FET's). However, a plurality of other kinds of components may be used as switching elements.
In accordance with a still further advantageous embodi¬ ment of the apparatus according to the inventon, it is also utilisable for quadruple quadrant operation, by having a po reversing contactor arranged in the armature or field cir¬ cuit, which contactor has the sole task of reversing the rotational direction of the machine.
An embodiment of the apparatus according to the in¬ vention, with switching elements in the form of FET's,
and selected as an example, will now be described in more detail, with reference to figs 3-8 on the accompanying drawings, on which Fig 1 illustrates the diffent operatio¬ nal types in the current-EMF plane for a series wound DC machine. Fig 2 illustrates the positive reference direct¬ ions for current and EMF in the PC machine, and Figs 3-8 illustrate an embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention in different operational modes.
A series wound DC machine, including armature 8 and series field windings 6, is connected to a supplying DC source U, e.g. a battery U. The armature is electrically represented by a series connection of a resistor Ra an inductance La and an EMF E, counterdirected in relation to the battery voltage U. Between the field winding 6 and the minus pole of the battery U there is connected a switching element in the form of a FET 2. Via a diode 10, connected in parallel with the field winding 6, the FET 2 is connected in series with a second switching element 4, also in the form of a FET and connected in parallel with the armature.
The FET's 2,4 are connected via their controls 12 and 14 to a suitable control unit, which is not more closely described.
A pole reversing contactor is schematically shown at 16,18 and 20, and is arranged in the armature circuit to enable reversing of the revolutional direction of the machine, and thus so-called quadruple quadrant operation. This pole reversing contactor may alternatively be arranged in the field circuit. In Fig 3 there is illustrated a first motor operation case representing switching on the machine. Here, only the FET 2 is ON for closing the current circuit, as shown in the Fig. In this case the current i increases as long as the battery voltage U exceeds the EMF E plus the resistive voltage drop across armature and field.
In Fig 4 there is illustrated a second motor operation case with freewheeling armature and field currents ia and if respectively. In this case the transistor 2 is OFF, the inductances of armature 8 and field winding 6 continuing to
drive the freewheeling currents ia and if respectively, as shown in the Fig.
In Fig 5 there is illustrated a special motor operation case, enabling the increase of the field current if in re- lation to the armature current ia. In this case, both trans¬ istors are ON, and the entire battery voltage is across the field winding 6, resulting in an increase of the field cur¬ rent if. If the current through the transistor is denoted by^i , there is thus obtained if - ia + Δ if
In this case, when the armature 8 is short-circuited by the transistor 4, the armature current ia , will decrease, and since a current if through the field winding 6 is main¬ tained in this case, without any mean current ia needing to pass through the armature, i.e. when ia = 0, then i = A if / the series motor can be prevented from run¬ ning away in this case. An important field of application here is to prevent impermissibly high speeds in vehicle operation without needing to arrange special shunt wind- ings.
In Fig 6 there is illustrated the introductory phase in a case of generator operation. In this case, both the transistors 2, 4 are ON, as in the case illustrated in Fig 5, and the entire battery voltage U will be situated across the field winding 6, thus maintaining magnetisation of the machine. The EMF E in the armature 8 simultaneously drives a current ia through it in the opposite direction to the one in the case of operation as a motor. This operation mode con tinues until the field current if has increased to a pre- determined magnitude and then the transistor 2 is switched to OFF, according to the operation case shown in Fig 7.
In Fig 7 the case is thus that the transistor 2 is OFF, while the transistor 4 is ON. The armature current ia which is driven by the EMF E of the machine, increases, while the field current if freewheels, as illutrated in the figure. This operation case continues until a suitably large arma¬ ture current ia is attained, i.e. suitable braking effect is obtained.
Finally in the operation case illustrated in Fig 8, the
transistor 4 has just switched to OFF, the inductance La in the armature 8 then continuing to drive the current ia, whic is fed back to the driving battery U. The field current if freewheels, as shown. In this case the series machine thus operates as a generator and feeds back energy to the battery U.
When braking the machine, the generator operation cases according to Figs 6-8 are repeated several times.
