 図2は、実施の形態にかかるモータ駆動制御装置20の構成例を示す図である。モータ駆動制御装置20は、インバータ回路7と、制御部9と、サーマルリレー10と、多接点リレー11とを備える。インバータ回路7は、それぞれが1つ以上のスイッチング素子を備える第1のスイッチング素子部および第2のスイッチング素子部を有し、電源8から供給される電力を用いて直流電源5から印加される直流電圧を交流電圧に変換して、交流電圧をモータ6に印加する。第1のスイッチング素子部は、正側のスイッチング素子である。第2のスイッチング素子部は、負側のスイッチング素子である。なお、第1のスイッチング素子部が、負側のスイッチング素子であって、第2のスイッチング素子部が、正側のスイッチング素子であってもよい。正側のスイッチング素子は、直流電源5の正の電極に接続されるスイッチング素子である。負側のスイッチング素子は、直流電源5の負の電極に接続されるスイッチング素子である。制御部9は、駆動信号をインバータ回路7に出力することでインバータ回路7を制御し、モータ6の運転を制御する。駆動信号は、具体的には、インバータ回路7をPWM(Pulse Width Modulation)制御するためのPWM信号である。サーマルリレー10は、多接点リレー11と電源12との間であって、モータ6の外殻、内部のどちらかに取り付けられる。サーマルリレー10をモータ6の内部に取り付ける場合、サーマルリレー10は、モータ6の内部の巻き線、ステータなどに取り付けられる。また、サーマルリレー10は、モータ6の温度を検知してモータ6の温度に応じて開閉する。サーマルリレー10は、モータ6の温度があらかじめ定められた温度になると制御部9によって開放される。また、サーマルリレー10は、閉じることで多接点リレー11に電力を供給し、開放することで多接点リレー11の電力の供給を断つ。モータ6は、回転することでファン2を回転させ、圧縮機3を動作させる。 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a configuration example of the motor drive control device 20 according to the embodiment. The motor drive control device 20 includes an inverter circuit 7, a control unit 9, a thermal relay 10, and a multi-contact relay 11. The inverter circuit 7 has a first switching element section and a second switching element section, each of which has one or more switching elements, and uses the power supplied from the power supply 8 to apply a direct current from the DC power supply 5. The voltage is converted into an AC voltage, and the AC voltage is applied to the motor 6. The first switching element unit is a switching element on the positive side. The second switching element unit is a switching element on the negative side. The first switching element unit may be the negative side switching element, and the second switching element unit may be the positive side switching element. The switching element on the positive side is a switching element connected to the positive electrode of the DC power supply 5. The switching element on the negative side is a switching element connected to the negative electrode of the DC power supply 5. The control unit 9 controls the inverter circuit 7 by outputting a drive signal to the inverter circuit 7, and controls the operation of the motor 6. Specifically, the drive signal is a PWM signal for PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control of the inverter circuit 7. The thermal relay 10 is between the multi-contact relay 11 and the power supply 12, and is attached to either the outer shell or the inner surface of the motor 6. When the thermal relay 10 is mounted inside the motor 6, the thermal relay 10 is mounted on a winding, a stator, or the like inside the motor 6. Further, the thermal relay 10 detects the temperature of the motor 6 and opens and closes according to the temperature of the motor 6. The thermal relay 10 is opened by the control unit 9 when the temperature of the motor 6 reaches a predetermined temperature. Further, the thermal relay 10 supplies electric power to the multi-contact relay 11 by closing it, and cuts off the electric power supply of the multi-contact relay 11 by opening it. The motor 6 rotates to rotate the fan 2 and operate the compressor 3.
 多接点リレー11は、制御部9と第1のスイッチング素子部との間に設けられる。また、多接点リレー11は、電源12から電力が供給されているときには閉じ、電源12からの電力が断たれると開放する。多接点リレー11が閉じることで、制御部9から第1のスイッチング素子部への駆動信号は供給される。多接点リレー11が開放されることで、制御部9と第1のスイッチング素子部と接続を断ち、制御部9から第1のスイッチング素子部への駆動信号は断たれる。なお、図2では、多接点リレー11は、複数のスイッチング素子の正側の接続を断つように配置されている。多接点リレー11は、単にリレーとも呼ばれる。インバータ回路7は、インバータ回路7のうち直流電源5の正側に接続されるスイッチング素子を制御するP側制御回路13と、インバータ回路7のうち直流電源5の負側に接続されるスイッチング素子を制御するN側制御回路14と、を備える。P側制御回路13は、制御部9から出力される駆動信号を用いてインバータ回路7の3つのP側のスイッチング素子のオン、オフを制御しモータ6に印加する電圧を調整する。N側制御回路14は、制御部9から出力される駆動信号を用いてインバータ回路7の3つのN側のスイッチング素子のオン、オフを制御しモータ6に印加する電圧を調整する。 The multi-contact relay 11 is provided between the control unit 9 and the first switching element unit. Further, the multi-contact relay 11 closes when the power is supplied from the power supply 12, and opens when the power from the power supply 12 is cut off. When the multi-contact relay 11 is closed, a drive signal is supplied from the control unit 9 to the first switching element unit. When the multi-contact relay 11 is opened, the connection between the control unit 9 and the first switching element unit is cut off, and the drive signal from the control unit 9 to the first switching element unit is cut off. In FIG. 2, the multi-contact relay 11 is arranged so as to disconnect the positive side of the plurality of switching elements. The multi-contact relay 11 is also simply called a relay. The inverter circuit 7 includes a P-side control circuit 13 that controls a switching element connected to the positive side of the DC power supply 5 in the inverter circuit 7, and a switching element connected to the negative side of the DC power supply 5 in the inverter circuit 7. It includes an N-side control circuit 14 for controlling. The P-side control circuit 13 controls the on / off of the three P-side switching elements of the inverter circuit 7 by using the drive signal output from the control unit 9, and adjusts the voltage applied to the motor 6. The N-side control circuit 14 controls the on / off of the three N-side switching elements of the inverter circuit 7 by using the drive signal output from the control unit 9, and adjusts the voltage applied to the motor 6.
 モータ駆動制御装置20のハードウェア構成について説明する。制御部9、P側制御回路13、およびN側制御回路14は、各処理を行う電子回路である処理回路により実現される。 The hardware configuration of the motor drive control device 20 will be described. The control unit 9, the P-side control circuit 13, and the N-side control circuit 14 are realized by a processing circuit that is an electronic circuit that performs each processing.
 本処理回路は、専用のハードウェアであっても、メモリ及びメモリに格納されるプログラムを実行するCPU(Central Processing Unit、中央演算装置)を備える制御回路であってもよい。ここでメモリとは、例えば、RAM(Random Access Memory)、ROM(Read Only Memory)、フラッシュメモリなどの、不揮発性または揮発性の半導体メモリ、磁気ディスク、光ディスクなどが該当する。図3は、実施の形態にかかる制御回路を示す図である。本処理回路がCPUを備える制御回路である場合、この制御回路は例えば、図3に示す構成の制御回路100となる。 This processing circuit may be dedicated hardware or a control circuit including a memory and a CPU (Central Processing Unit, central processing unit) that executes a program stored in the memory. Here, the memory corresponds to, for example, a non-volatile or volatile semiconductor memory such as a RAM (Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), or a flash memory, a magnetic disk, an optical disk, or the like. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a control circuit according to the embodiment. When the processing circuit is a control circuit including a CPU, the control circuit is, for example, the control circuit 100 having the configuration shown in FIG.
 図3に示すように、制御回路100は、CPUであるプロセッサ100aと、メモリ100bとを備える。図3に示す制御回路100により実現される場合、プロセッサ100aがメモリ100bに記憶された、各処理に対応するプログラムを読みだして実行することにより実現される。また、メモリ100bは、プロセッサ100aが実施する各処理における一時メモリとしても使用される。インバータ回路7が備えるスイッチング素子は、例えば、MOSFET(Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor)などの半導体素子である。 As shown in FIG. 3, the control circuit 100 includes a processor 100a, which is a CPU, and a memory 100b. When it is realized by the control circuit 100 shown in FIG. 3, it is realized by the processor 100a reading and executing the program corresponding to each process stored in the memory 100b. The memory 100b is also used as a temporary memory in each process performed by the processor 100a. The switching element included in the inverter circuit 7 is, for example, a semiconductor element such as a MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor).
 モータ駆動制御装置20の動作について説明する。モータ6が故障し回転できない場合、モータ6は電力を動力に変換することができず、モータ6が電力を動力に変換することができる場合よりも発熱する。このため、モータ6に交流電圧が印加され続けると、モータ6の温度は上昇し、モータ6内の巻き線は、絶縁破壊する温度を超えてしまうため地絡が発生してしまう。ここで、本実施の形態では、モータ6の外殻および内部の温度があらかじめ定められた値を超えたとき、サーマルリレー10が開放する。例えば、モータ6の外殻および内部の温度が150℃となったとき、または150℃を超えないあらかじめ定められた値のとき、サーマルリレー10は開放する。 The operation of the motor drive control device 20 will be described. When the motor 6 fails and cannot rotate, the motor 6 cannot convert electric power into power, and generates more heat than when the motor 6 can convert electric power into power. Therefore, if the AC voltage is continuously applied to the motor 6, the temperature of the motor 6 rises, and the winding inside the motor 6 exceeds the temperature at which dielectric breakdown occurs, so that a ground fault occurs. Here, in the present embodiment, when the temperature of the outer shell and the inside of the motor 6 exceeds a predetermined value, the thermal relay 10 is opened. For example, when the temperature of the outer shell and the inside of the motor 6 reaches 150 ° C., or when the temperature does not exceed 150 ° C., the thermal relay 10 is opened.
 サーマルリレー10が開放されることにより多接点リレー11への電源12の電力の供給が断たれるため、多接点リレー11が開放状態となる。多接点リレー11が開放されるため、制御部9からP側制御回路13、つまりインバータ回路7のプラス側への駆動信号が断たれるのでモータ6への電圧が印加されなくなる。モータ6への電圧が印加されなくなることにより、モータ6の巻き線は絶縁破壊する温度まで上昇することなく停止することができ、地絡が発生することを抑制できる。 When the thermal relay 10 is opened, the power supply of the power supply 12 to the multi-contact relay 11 is cut off, so that the multi-contact relay 11 is opened. Since the multi-contact relay 11 is opened, the drive signal from the control unit 9 to the P side control circuit 13, that is, the positive side of the inverter circuit 7 is cut off, so that no voltage is applied to the motor 6. By not applying the voltage to the motor 6, the winding of the motor 6 can be stopped without rising to the temperature at which dielectric breakdown occurs, and the occurrence of a ground fault can be suppressed.
 以上説明したように、本実施の形態では、多接点リレー11は、P側制御回路13と制御部9との間に設けられるため、P側制御回路13のみの駆動信号を断つことになる。このため、N側制御回路14と制御部9との接続は断たれないため、インバータ回路7は残留電荷が残ることなくインバータ回路7の故障を抑制することができる。なお、本実施の形態では、多接点リレー11は、P側制御回路13と制御部9との間に設けられ、P側制御回路13のみの駆動信号を断つこととしたが、多接点リレー11は、N側制御回路14と制御部9との間に設けられ、N側制御回路14のみの駆動信号を断つこととしてもよい。また、多接点リレー11は、P側制御回路13と制御部9との間、およびN側制御回路14と制御部9との間に設けられ、P側制御回路13およびN側制御回路14の駆動信号を断つこととしてもよい。 As described above, in the present embodiment, since the multi-contact relay 11 is provided between the P-side control circuit 13 and the control unit 9, the drive signal of only the P-side control circuit 13 is cut off. Therefore, since the connection between the N-side control circuit 14 and the control unit 9 is not cut off, the inverter circuit 7 can suppress the failure of the inverter circuit 7 without leaving residual charges. In the present embodiment, the multi-contact relay 11 is provided between the P-side control circuit 13 and the control unit 9, and the drive signal of only the P-side control circuit 13 is cut off. However, the multi-contact relay 11 May be provided between the N-side control circuit 14 and the control unit 9 to cut off the drive signal of only the N-side control circuit 14. Further, the multi-contact relay 11 is provided between the P-side control circuit 13 and the control unit 9 and between the N-side control circuit 14 and the control unit 9, and the P-side control circuit 13 and the N-side control circuit 14 are provided. The drive signal may be cut off.
