- a voltage converter is provided between the DC power supply and the frequency converter.
- an auxiliary machine such as an air conditioner may be further connected to the connection portion between the drive circuit and the DC power supply, but the voltage applied to the auxiliary machine does not need to be boosted. Therefore, the connection to the auxiliary machine is generally branched from between the voltage conversion unit and the DC power supply.

Therefore, it is possible to surely prevent the regeneration from being restricted by the detection error of the sensor, even though the voltage of the DC power supply is in a normally usable range. Furthermore, since the overvoltage can be determined at the lowest voltage at which regeneration should be restricted, the overvoltage can be detected early.

Based on the battery voltage measured by the voltage measurement unit 6, the TCU 10 determines whether or not the connection between the battery B and the rotating electrical machine control device 2 is maintained. And when this connection is not maintained, TCU10 performs control which is demonstrated below in order to suppress the raise of a battery voltage.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of a control procedure of the rotating electrical machine control system of the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is a timing chart showing the relationship between the change of the battery voltage and the control executed according to the procedure of FIG. 3 accordingly.
- the TCU 10 acquires the battery voltage from the voltage measuring unit 6 (# 10). Then, the TCU 10 determines whether or not the battery voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold TH1 (# 51). In the example shown in FIG. 4, the rising battery voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold TH1 at time t1 and time t3. In this case (# 51: Yes), the TCU 10 turns the overvoltage flag on as shown in FIG. 4 (# 52).
- the overvoltage threshold TH1 is preferably set to the sum of the maximum voltage allowable by the battery B and the maximum value of the error of the voltage measurement unit 6 that acquires the battery voltage. As an example, if the maximum normally usable voltage of the battery B is 350 V and the maximum value of the measurement error by the voltage measuring unit 6 is 20 V, the sum 370 V is set as the overvoltage threshold TH1.

For example, at times t11 and t12 in FIG. 4, the battery voltage does not exceed the overvoltage threshold TH1, but does not fall below the release threshold TH3. Therefore, in these cases (# 53: No), the state of the overvoltage flag is maintained (# 54). That is, at time t11, as shown in FIG. 4, since the battery voltage has not exceeded the overvoltage threshold TH1 before time t11, the overvoltage flag is OFF. Therefore, the OFF state is maintained. On the other hand, since the time t12 is a time after the battery voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold TH1 at the time t1, the overvoltage flag is in the ON state. Therefore, the ON state is maintained.
- the TCU 10 determines that the battery voltage is below the release threshold value TH3 (# 53: Yes). In this case, as shown in FIG. 4, the TCU 10 turns off the overvoltage flag (# 55). As described above, the TCU 10 performs the determination based on the overvoltage threshold TH1 or the determination based on the overvoltage threshold TH1 and the release threshold TH3 on the acquired battery voltage, and determines the state of the overvoltage flag.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4, the boost control status is changed from normal to shutdown. Specifically, the TCU 10 shuts down the converter by controlling both the switching elements 4c and 4d to the OFF state. Thereby, the connection between the frequency converter 6 and the auxiliary machine 20 is canceled. Therefore, regenerative power from the rotating electrical machine is not supplied to the auxiliary machine 20. As a result, when the connection between the battery B and the rotating electrical machine is released, it is possible to suppress application of an overvoltage to the auxiliary machine 20 connected to the circuit on the rotating electrical machine side.
- the torque command TM of the rotating electrical machine functioning as a motor is set to a normal value.
- the torque command TG (regenerative torque) of the rotating electrical machine that functions as a generator is set to a normal value (# 63).

- the torque command value gradually increases after time t2.
- the torque command value is set to 0 [Nm] as in step # 62, the torque change rate is not limited because an emergency is required.
- the TCU 10 operates the voltage conversion unit (converter) 4 in step # 73. That is, the TCU 10 normally controls the switching elements 4c and 4d as described above.

- FIG. 6 is a timing chart showing the relationship between the change of the battery voltage and the control executed according to the procedure of FIG. 5 accordingly.
- the same reference numerals are given to the steps in which the same processing as that in the flowchart shown in FIG. 3 is performed.
- the TCU 10 acquires the battery voltage from the voltage measuring unit 6 (# 10). Then, the TCU 10 calculates the voltage change rate by, for example, differentiating the battery voltage (# 20). The voltage measuring unit 6 may calculate and output to the TCU 10. Next, the TCU 10 determines whether or not the voltage change rate exceeds a predetermined change rate threshold TH4 (# 31). In the example shown in FIG. 6, the voltage change rate of the battery voltage that rapidly increases exceeds the change rate threshold value TH4 at time t4. In this case (# 31: Yes), the TCU 10 turns on the sudden change flag as shown in FIG. 6 (# 32).
- step # 31 If it is determined in step # 31 that the battery voltage does not exceed the change rate threshold TH4 (# 31: No), the state of the sudden change flag is maintained (# 33). For example, at time t13, as shown in FIG. 6, since the voltage change rate does not exceed the change rate threshold TH4 before time t13, the sudden change flag is OFF. Therefore, the OFF state is maintained. On the other hand, since the time t14 is a time after the voltage change rate exceeds the change rate threshold TH4 at the time t4, the change rate flag is maintained in the ON state even though the change rate is smaller than the time t13. . In this way, the TCU 10 determines the state of the sudden change flag based on the voltage change rate.
- the TCU 10 determines whether or not the sudden change flag is in an ON state (# 41).

- the overvoltage flag can be quickly turned on through steps # 41 and # 42. . That is, as indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 6, in the determination based on the normal time threshold TH1, the overvoltage flag is turned on at time t1, and the torque command value and the boost control status are changed. However, in the present embodiment, the overvoltage flag is turned on at time t5 earlier than time t1. Therefore, the TCU 10 can change the torque command value and the boost control status at an earlier timing.
- the TCU 10 determines whether or not the battery voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold (TH1 or TH2) (# 51).
- the overvoltage threshold TH1 or TH2
- the overvoltage flag is turned ON ( # 52).
- time t7 when the sudden change flag is OFF the battery voltage that rises exceeds the overvoltage threshold (normal threshold) TH1, and the overvoltage flag is turned ON.
- step # 51 if it is determined in step # 51 that the battery voltage does not exceed the overvoltage threshold (# 51: No), whether or not the battery voltage is below the release threshold TH3 next. Is determined (# 53). When the battery voltage is not lower than the release threshold TH3 (# 53: No), the state of the overvoltage flag is maintained (# 54). On the other hand, when the battery voltage is lower than the release threshold value TH3 (# 53: Yes), the TCU 10 turns off the overvoltage flag and the sudden change flag (# 56). In this way, the TCU 10 performs each process from Step # 10 to Step # 56 based on the battery voltage and the voltage change rate, and determines the state of the overvoltage flag.
- the TCU 10 determines whether or not the overvoltage flag is in the ON state (# 61).
- the torque command TM of the rotating electrical machine functioning as a motor is set to 0 [Nm] and the torque command of the rotating electrical machine functioning as a generator is set.

- step # 72 the torque change rate
- the torque command value is set to 0 [Nm] as in step # 62, since an emergency is required, the torque change rate is not limited. Further, the TCU 10 operates the voltage conversion unit (converter) 4 in step # 73.

- both the torque command TM of the rotating electrical machine functioning as a motor and the torque command TG (regenerative torque) of the rotating electrical machine functioning as a generator are both 0 [ An example of setting to [Nm] is shown.
