Description

Motor driving circuit

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a motor drive circuit.

Background

Conventionally, as a drive circuit for an actuator such as a motor, there is a drive circuit configured to include a power supply terminal connected to a positive electrode terminal of a battery and to operate the battery as a power supply.

In a driving circuit that operates by using electric power from a battery, when a negative terminal of the battery is connected to a power supply terminal of the driving circuit in a reverse direction of the battery, an FET (FIELD EFFECT transistor) is provided in a power supply path connecting the power supply terminal and the driving circuit in order to prevent a current from flowing from the driving circuit to the power supply terminal (see patent document 1).

In this way, in the drive circuit in which the FET is provided in the power supply path, when the battery is normally connected, a potential difference occurs between the gate and the source of the FET, and the FET is turned on, so that the power supply path is connected, and power can be supplied from the battery to the drive circuit.

On the other hand, when the battery is reversely connected to the drive circuit, the gate and the source of the FET are kept at the same potential, and the FET is turned off, so that the power supply path is disconnected, and a current is prevented from flowing from the drive circuit side to the power supply terminal side in the power supply path. An electronic control device other than a drive circuit of an actuator is connected to a power supply terminal, and thus, by preventing a current from flowing toward the power supply terminal, an influence on the operation of the other electronic control device can be suppressed.

Disclosure of Invention

Problems to be solved by the invention

In the case where the driving circuit is a driving circuit for driving a motor, a reverse voltage is generated at the motor at the time of starting and stopping the motor. For example, when a battery is not connected to the drive circuit, if a reverse voltage is generated in the motor, the generated back electromotive force is applied to the gate of the FET, and the FET is turned on. When the FET is turned on, the power supply path is connected, and the reverse voltage of the motor is output toward the power supply terminal, which may affect the operation of other electronic control devices.

The invention aims to provide a motor drive circuit which can restrain the generated reverse voltage from being output to a battery connection part side of a power supply path even if the motor generates the reverse voltage.

Means for solving the problems

The motor driving circuit for solving the above problems has the following features.

That is, the motor driving circuit of the present invention includes: a motor; a battery that supplies electric power to the motor; a power supply path to which a battery voltage of the battery is supplied and which is connected to the motor; a power supply switching unit provided in the power supply path, the power supply switching unit being configured to connect the power supply path when a voltage is applied thereto and disconnect the power supply path when the voltage is not applied thereto; a control section including: a drive control unit connected to the motor and controlling the drive of the motor; and a voltage applying unit connected to the power supply switching means and configured to apply a voltage to the power supply switching means; a voltage application path connecting the control unit and the power supply switching unit; and a detection circuit provided on the voltage application path, capable of detecting a reverse voltage generated at the motor, the detection circuit shutting off a voltage applied to the power supply switching unit through the voltage application path when detecting the reverse voltage of the motor.

Effects of the invention

According to the present invention, when the motor generates the reverse voltage, the voltage is not applied to the power supply switching means, and therefore the power supply path is disconnected by the power supply switching means, and the generated reverse voltage is not output to the battery connection portion side of the power supply path. This can suppress the influence on the operation of the other electronic control device connected to the power supply path.

Detailed Description

Next, modes for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[ Schematic structure of opening/closing body drive section and Motor drive device ]

The motor drive circuit 3 shown in fig. 1 to 3 is an embodiment of the motor drive circuit of the present invention, and is provided in a vehicle 10. The vehicle 10 includes a vehicle body 11 having an opening 11a, a rear door 12 as an opening/closing body for opening/closing the opening 11a of the vehicle body 11, and an opening/closing body driving section 20 for opening/closing the rear door 12, and the motor driving circuit 3 is provided in the opening/closing body driving section 20. The motor driving circuit 3 has a motor 30 as a driving source for opening and closing the rear door 12.

The opening 11a is located at the rear of the vehicle body 11. The upper end portion of the rear door 12 is rotatably supported by the vehicle body 11 via a hinge, and the rear door 12 is movable between a closed position (a position shown by a solid line in fig. 2) for closing the opening portion 11a and an open position (a position shown by a two-dot chain line in fig. 2) for opening the opening portion 11a by rotating about the upper end portion. The opening/closing body driving unit 20 may be provided at, for example, both right and left end portions of the rear portion of the vehicle 10, but may be provided only at one of the right and left end portions.

The motor 30 of the motor drive circuit 3 is not limited to a drive source for opening and closing the rear door 12 of the vehicle 10, and may be used as a drive source for opening and closing a roll door, a push-pull door, a hinge door, and the like provided in a structure such as a store or a garage, and a drive source for opening and closing a toilet cover for driving a toilet. The motor 30 may be used as a driving source of various driving devices for rotating or moving the object to be driven and the structure in the up-down direction, the right-left direction, and the oblique direction.

The opening/closing body driving section 20 includes a main body tube section 21, a slide tube section 22, and a motor driving circuit 3.

One end side of the main body tube 21 is rotatably supported by the vehicle 10, and the other end side is open. The slide tube 22 is supported on the other end side of the main body tube 21 so as to be slidable in the longitudinal direction with respect to the main body tube 21. The slide tube 22 can be advanced and retracted relative to the main body tube 21 by sliding in the longitudinal direction relative to the main body tube 21.

A main shaft (not shown) rotatably supported around an axis and a motor 30 for rotatably driving the main shaft are disposed in the main body tube 21. A spindle nut (not shown) fixed to the slide cylinder 22 and screwed to the spindle is provided inside the slide cylinder 22.

The spindle nut is moved along the longitudinal direction of the main body cylinder 21 by the rotational drive of the motor 30. Thereby, the slide cylinder 22 moves forward and backward with respect to the main body cylinder 21. In this case, for example, when the motor 30 rotates in one direction of the forward and reverse rotation directions, the slide cylinder 22 housed in the main body cylinder 21 advances from the opening of the main body cylinder 21, and when the motor 30 rotates in the other direction of the forward and reverse rotation directions, the slide cylinder 22 retreats in the main body cylinder 21.

In this way, by the sliding tube 22 moving forward and backward with respect to the main body tube 21, the rear door 12 moves in the direction of opening and closing the opening 11a in accordance with the length of the sliding tube 22 moving forward from the main body tube 21. Specifically, when the slide cylinder 22 moves in the forward direction from the main body cylinder 21, the rear door 12 moves in the direction to open the opening 11a, and when the slide cylinder 22 moves in the retracting direction with respect to the main body cylinder 21, the rear door 12 moves in the direction to close the opening 11 a. That is, the motor 30 drives the driving object (the rear door 12 in the present embodiment) by driving.

The vehicle 10 has a battery 6 as a direct current power source, and the motor 30 is constituted by a direct current motor driven by the battery 6. However, the motor 30 may be an ac motor driven by an ac power source.

In the motor drive circuit 3, a bridge circuit BC for driving the motor 30 is constituted by a first FET31, a second FET32, a third FET33, and a fourth FET 34. The bridge circuit BC is an example of a bridge circuit for driving the motor.

The fifth FET35 is turned on when a voltage greater than the threshold voltage is applied to the fifth gate 35G from the fifth terminal 81e of the motor driver 81, and the fifth drain 35D is connected to the fifth source 35S.

The motor drive circuit 3 has a connection wiring 54. One end of the connection wiring 54 is connected to the power supply wiring 51, and the other end is connected to the sixth terminal 81 f. One end of the connection wiring 54 is connected between the fifth FET35 on the power supply wiring 51 and the first FET31 and the third FET33 of the bridge circuit BC. A drive terminal VM1 to which a drive voltage for driving the motor driver 81 is supplied is connected between the fifth FET35 of the bridge circuit BC on the power supply wiring 51 and the first FET31 and the third FET 33.

The motor drive circuit 3 has a short-circuit transistor 37 connected between the fifth gate 35G and the fifth source 35S of the fifth FET 35. A diode 38 is connected between the short-circuit transistor 37 and the fifth source 35S. The short-circuit transistor 37 is an NPN transistor, and has a base B grounded, a collector C connected to the fifth gate 35G, and an emitter E connected to the fifth source 35S. The short-circuit transistor 37 is turned on when the voltage of the base B is higher than the voltage of the emitter E by a predetermined value or more, and turned off when the voltage of the base B is not higher than the voltage of the emitter E by a predetermined value or more.

When the positive terminal of the battery 6 is connected to the power supply terminal VB1 or when the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply terminal VB1, the voltage of the base B of the short-circuit transistor 37 is not higher than the voltage of the emitter E by a predetermined value or more, and the short-circuit transistor 37 is turned off. In the state where the short-circuit transistor 37 is turned off, the collector C is disconnected from the emitter E, and no current flows between the fifth gate 35G and the fifth source 35S of the fifth FET 35.

On the other hand, when the negative terminal of the battery 6 is connected to the power supply terminal VB1, the voltage at the base B of the short-circuit transistor 37 is higher than the voltage at the emitter E by a predetermined value or more, and the short-circuit transistor 37 is turned on. In the state where the short-circuit transistor 37 is on, the collector C and the emitter E are on, and the fifth gate 35G and the fifth source 35S of the fifth FET35 are short-circuited. In this case, since the diode 38 is connected between the fifth gate 35G and the fifth source 35S, although current flows from the fifth gate 35G to the fifth source 35S, current does not flow from the fifth source 35S to the fifth gate 35G.

The motor drive circuit 3 has a detection circuit 7. The detection circuit 7 is provided on the voltage application wiring 53, and has a first transistor 71 and a second transistor 72. The first transistor 71 is an example of a first circuit, and the second transistor 72 is an example of a second circuit. The detection circuit 7 may be configured to be provided with a detection unit that detects a battery voltage of a battery connected to the power supply path.

The first transistor 71 is an NPN transistor, the first base B1 is connected to the reverse voltage input terminal VM2, the first collector C1 is connected to the voltage application wiring 53, and the first emitter E1 is grounded. The first base B1 is an example of a first input terminal of the first transistor, the first collector C1 is an example of a first output terminal of the first transistor, and the first emitter E1 is an example of a first ground terminal of the first transistor. The reverse voltage input terminal VM2 is a terminal to which a reverse voltage generated by the motor 30 is input.

The first transistor 71 is turned on when the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is input to the first base B1 via the reverse voltage input terminal VM2, and the first collector C1 is turned on with the first emitter E1. The voltage application wiring 53 is grounded by conduction between the first collector C1 and the first emitter E1. In addition, the first transistor 71 is turned off when the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is not input to the first base B1, and the first collector C1 is disconnected from the first emitter E1. In a state where the first collector C1 is disconnected from the first emitter E1, the voltage application wiring 53 is not grounded.

The second transistor 72 is an NPN transistor, and has a second base B2 connected to the battery voltage input terminal VB2, a second collector C2 connected to the first base B1 of the first transistor 71, and a second emitter E2 grounded. The second base B2 is an example of a second input terminal of the second transistor, the second collector C2 is an example of a second output terminal of the second transistor, and the second emitter E2 is an example of a second ground terminal of the second transistor.

In addition, the battery voltage is input to the battery voltage input terminal VB2 when the positive terminal of the battery 6 is connected to the power supply terminal VB1, and the battery voltage is not input when the positive terminal of the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply terminal VB 1.

The second transistor 72 is turned on when the battery voltage of the battery 6 is input to the second base B2 via the battery voltage input terminal VB2, the second collector C2 is turned on with the second emitter E2, and the first base B1 of the first transistor 71 is grounded. In a state where the first base B1 is grounded, even in a case where the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is applied to the reverse voltage input terminal VM2, the input of the reverse voltage to the first transistor 71 is blocked, and the first transistor 71 maintains the off state.

The second transistor 72 is turned off when the battery voltage is not input to the second base B2, and the second collector C2 is disconnected from the second emitter E2. In a state where the second collector C2 is disconnected from the second emitter E2, the first base B1 of the first transistor 71 is not grounded, allowing the input of the reverse voltage of the motor 30 applied to the reverse voltage input terminal VM2 to the first base B1.

The motor drive circuit 3 includes a plurality of ECUs (Electronic Control Unit: electronic control units) 82, 83 that control operations of respective portions of the vehicle 10. The ECUs 82, 83 are connected between the power supply terminal VB1 on the power supply wiring 51 and the fifth FET 35. The ECUs 82, 83 can be configured to control operations of an engine, a transmission, a brake, power windows, various meters, and the like of the vehicle 10.

[ Operation of Motor drive Circuit ]

In the motor drive circuit 3 configured as described above, in a normal state in which the positive terminal of the battery 6 is connected to the power supply terminal VB1 and the battery voltage is supplied to the power supply wiring 51, a step-up voltage for stepping up the battery voltage is applied from the fifth terminal 81e of the motor driver 81 to the fifth gate 35G of the fifth FET 35. In this case, since the battery voltage is input to the battery voltage input terminal VB2 in the detection circuit 7 and the first transistor 71 is turned off and the transistor for shorting 37 is turned off, the boosted voltage output from the fifth terminal 81e is allowed to be applied to the fifth gate 35G through the voltage-application wiring 53.

The boosted voltage is higher than the threshold voltage of the fifth FET35, and when the boosted voltage is applied to the fifth gate 35G, the fifth FET35 is turned on, and the electric power from the battery 6 can be supplied to the motor 30.

In this state, when the applied voltages to the first gate 31G and the second gate 32G are output from the first terminal 81a and the second terminal 81b of the motor driver 81, the first FET31 and the second FET32 are turned on, and the third FET33 and the fourth FET34 are kept in the off state, a current flows from the first FET31 to the second FET32 through the motor 30, and the motor 30 rotates in the forward rotation direction.

On the other hand, when the applied voltages to the third gate 33G and the fourth gate 34G are outputted from the third terminal 83a and the fourth terminal 84b of the motor driver 81, the third FET33 and the fourth FET34 are turned on, and the first FET31 and the second FET32 are kept in the off state, a current flows from the third FET33 to the fourth FET34 through the motor 30, and the motor 30 rotates in the reverse direction.

In addition, when the battery 6 having the negative terminal of the battery 6 connected to the power supply terminal VB1 is connected in the reverse direction, the fifth gate 35G of the fifth FET35 is short-circuited to the fifth source 35S by the on-state of the short-circuit transistor 37, so that a voltage larger than the threshold voltage is not applied to the fifth gate 35G of the fifth FET35, and the fifth FET35 is turned off.

Here, when the motor 30 is started and stopped, a reverse voltage is generated, but the cathodes of the first parasitic diode D1 of the first FET31 and the third parasitic diode D3 of the third FET33 connected to the motor 30 are connected to the fifth FET35 side, and the generated reverse voltage is input to the power supply wiring 51 through the first parasitic diode D1 and the third parasitic diode D3.

However, since the fifth FET35 is turned off and the anode of the fifth parasitic diode D5 of the fifth FET35 is connected to the power supply terminal VB1 side, the reverse voltage input to the power supply wiring 51 is not output to the power supply terminal VB1 side of the fifth FET 35. Thus, the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is not applied to the ECUs 82 and 83 connected between the power supply terminal VB1 and the fifth FET35 on the power supply wiring 51, and the influence on the operation of the ECUs 82 and 83 can be suppressed.

When the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply terminal VB1, when a reverse voltage is generated in the motor 30, the generated reverse voltage is input to the power supply wiring 51 through the first parasitic diode D1 and the third parasitic diode D3. The reverse voltage input to the power supply wiring 51 is input to the motor driver 81 through the connection wiring 54 and the sixth terminal 81f, and the reverse voltage input to the motor driver 81 is further output from the fifth terminal 81e to the voltage application wiring 53.

In this case, when the reverse voltage output to the voltage application wiring 53 is applied to the fifth gate 35G of the fifth FET35, since the reverse voltage is larger than the threshold voltage of the fifth FET35, the fifth FET35 is turned on and the reverse voltage output to the power supply wiring 51 is applied to the ECUs 82, 83.

However, when the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply terminal VB1, the reverse voltage is input to the reverse voltage input terminal VM2 in a state where the second transistor 72 is turned off in the case where the reverse voltage is generated by the motor 30, and therefore the reverse voltage is input to the first base B1 from the reverse voltage input terminal VM2 and the first transistor 71 is turned on. When the first transistor 71 is turned on, the voltage application wiring 53 is grounded, and the reverse voltage output to the voltage application wiring 53 is not applied to the fifth gate 35G of the fifth FET 35.

That is, when the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is detected by the detection circuit 7 when the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply wiring 51, the reverse voltage applied to the fifth gate 35G of the fifth FET35 through the voltage application wiring 53 is cut off, and the fifth FET35 is turned off. Accordingly, the power supply wiring 51 is disconnected by the fifth FET35, and the reverse voltage outputted to the power supply wiring 51 is not outputted to the ECUs 82 and 83, thereby suppressing the influence on the operation of the ECUs 82 and 83.

In this way, the first transistor 71 of the detection circuit 7 is configured to shut off the voltage applied to the fifth FET35 when the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is input, and to allow the voltage applied to the fifth FET35 when the reverse voltage of the motor 30 is not input. The second transistor 72 of the detection circuit 7 is configured to block the input of the reverse voltage to the first transistor 71 when the battery voltage of the battery 30 is input, and to allow the input of the reverse voltage to the first transistor 71 when the battery voltage of the battery 30 is not input.

Therefore, when the reverse voltage is generated in the motor 30 in the state in which the input of the reverse voltage to the first transistor 71 is permitted by the second transistor 72 when the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply wiring 51, the voltage applied to the fifth FET35 is cut off by the first transistor 71. Accordingly, the power supply wiring 51 is disconnected by the fifth FET35, and the reverse voltage is not outputted to the power supply wiring 51 on the power supply terminal VB1 side of the fifth FET 35.

Further, since the detection circuit 7 is configured by the first transistor 71 and the second transistor 72, the detection circuit 7 can be configured with a simple circuit configuration.

The motor driving circuit 3 further includes: a bridge circuit BC having a first FET31, a second FET32, a third FET33, and a fourth FET34 for driving the motor 30; and a drive terminal VM1 provided between the fifth FET35 and the bridge circuit BC on the power supply wiring 51, and supplied with a drive voltage of the motor driver 81.

In such a configuration, when the motor driver 81 and the fifth FET35 are connected via the voltage application line 53, the reverse voltage generated in the motor 30 driven by the bridge circuit BC is applied to the fifth FET35 via the connection line 54, the motor driver 81, and the voltage application line 53.

However, when the reverse voltage is generated in the motor 30 in a state where the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply line 51, the voltage is cut off by the detection circuit 7, and therefore the reverse voltage is not applied to the fifth FET 35. As a result, the power supply line 51 is disconnected by the fifth FET35, and the generated reverse voltage is not outputted to the power supply terminal VB1 side of the power supply line 51, so that the operation of the ECUs 82 and 83 connected to the power supply line 51 can be suppressed from being affected.

In particular, the motor 30 of the present embodiment is a drive source for opening and closing the rear door 12 of the vehicle 10. Therefore, when the reverse voltage is generated in the motor 30 in a state where the battery 6 is not connected to the power supply wiring 51, the generated reverse voltage is not outputted to the power supply terminal VB1 side of the power supply wiring 51, and it is possible to suppress an influence on the operation of the ECUs 82 and 83 as control devices of other in-vehicle devices connected to the power supply wiring 51.

The first FET31, the second FET32, the third FET33, and the fourth FET34 constituting the bridge circuit BC may be constituted by physical relay switches. In this case, it is preferable that the same diodes as the first parasitic diode D1, the second parasitic diode D2, the third parasitic diode D3, and the fourth parasitic diode D4 be provided in one group for each relay switch. When the relay switch is provided with a diode, and the motor 30 generates a reverse voltage, the diode can discharge a current caused by the reverse voltage of the motor 30, thereby suppressing breakage of the relay switch.

In addition, in the vehicle 10, as an opening/closing body using the motor 30 as a driving source, a trunk lid, a hood, a sunroof, a sliding door, a door mirror, a fan, a window glass provided in a door, or the like can be applied in addition to the rear door 12.
