Therefore, when the conduction angle is increased or decreased at the same rate, the acceleration in the case of conduction at an electrical angle of 120 degrees or more is about 1/3 of the acceleration in the case of conduction at a conduction angle of less than 120 degrees.
  • the time for the drive frequency to pass through the resonance frequency band unique to the device increases. For this reason, a reduction in acceleration can be a source of vibration and noise.
  • the generated vibration may cause the device to fail.
  • the amount of change (control amount) of the on timing and the off timing of the switching element in speed control is corrected according to the conduction angle. This avoids a decrease in acceleration during acceleration or deceleration and provides a constant acceleration.
  • FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing adjustment of the control amount.
  • the on timing and off timing of the switching element in the conduction phase control unit 8 are set (S41).
  • Rate 1 and rate 2 are increase / decrease rates of the power supply section of the brushless DC motor.
  • the rate 1 is set to three times the rate 2. That is, in the case of energization at an electrical angle of 120 degrees or more, a conduction angle three times as large as the conduction angle to be increased or decreased in the case of less than 120 degrees is increased or decreased.
  • the conduction angle is increased or decreased by 0.1 degree per control cycle.

  • FIG. 8A is a diagram showing phase current waveforms of the brushless DC motor when PWM control is performed.
  • FIG. 8B is a diagram showing a phase current waveform of the brushless DC motor when the on-time ratio is 100%.
  • FIG. 8A shows a waveform in the case of energization at an electrical angle of 120 degrees. As shown in FIG. 8A, high-frequency current components accompanying switching on and off of the switching element by PWM control are superimposed on the phase current waveform when PWM control is performed. This high frequency current component causes the motor iron loss.
  • Refrigerator using motor drive A refrigeration cycle apparatus using a compressor 17 driven by the motor drive device 30 configured as described above will be described.
  • a refrigerator will be described as an example of the cooling cycle device.
  • the switching operation of the switching element at high frequency by the PWM control is not performed. Instead, the drive timing is controlled by adjusting the on timing or off timing of the switching element such that the on time ratio of the PWM control is 100%. As a result, the occurrence of switching loss of the inverter circuit 3 due to PWM control is avoided, and the circuit efficiency of the inverter circuit 3 is significantly improved.
  • a MOSFET is used as a switching element of the inverter circuit 3.
  • the MOSFET does not have a PN junction in the path of the output current when it is on. For this reason, the on-state loss, especially at low current output of the MOSFET, is very low compared to that of other power devices such as IGBTs.
  • the refrigerator is driven at low speed and low load during most of the time of day, and the current flowing to the brushless DC motor 4 is small. Therefore, when the motor drive device 30 of the present disclosure is used to drive the compressor 17 of the refrigerator as described above, the power consumption of the refrigerator is effectively reduced by using the MOSFET as the switching element of the inverter circuit 3. Be done.
  • the phase current flowing in the stator winding of the brushless DC motor 4 is high frequency. It can be avoided that current components are superimposed. As a result, motor iron loss can be significantly reduced, and motor efficiency can be improved.
  • PWM control switching operation of the switching element is generally performed at a PWM frequency of about 1 kHz to about 20 kHz, and noise due to a frequency component of the switching operation is generated. It is very important to improve the silent performance of the refrigerator, since the refrigerator is operated all day regardless of day and night. In the motor drive device 30 of the present embodiment, since the on-time ratio is set to 100%, generation of noise due to PWM control can be avoided, and noise reduction performance of the refrigerator can be improved.

In addition, it is possible to reduce the driving noise of the brushless DC motor and the vibration of the device. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to any device in which a brushless DC motor is used, such as a refrigerator, an air conditioner, a washing machine, a pump, a fan, a fan, and a vacuum cleaner.
