(Problem to be solved by the invention) The outdoor unit of an air conditioner is often installed in a well-ventilated place so that it receives natural wind immediately, and the fan does not rotate due to the wind. , so the motor will rotate. At a certain moment when the remoter is rotating due to an external force, transistors 3a and 38 in FIG.
is on, and everything else is off. When the voltage V generated during normal rotation of the rotor 2 is generated so that the motor winding la side is positive and the lb side is negative, the voltage is supplied to the power supply side through the diode 4b. When the rotor rotates in the forward direction, it is not a big problem because the voltage only increases, but if the rotor were to rotate in the reverse direction at this same moment, the voltage V x −z that would be generated would be the opposite voltage, as shown by the broken line in A short circuit current flows from the transistor 3e to the diode 4d.

Furthermore, when there are strong winds such as during a typhoon, the force exerted on the fan increases, causing the motor to rotate at a higher speed.If the fan rotates in the opposite direction, short-circuit current increases, causing damage to transistors, diodes, etc.

(Function) External forces such as strong winds cause the motor to rotate in reverse, creating a short-circuit current. When the short-circuit current exceeds a certain value, the current detection device generates a signal, which causes the motor drive control device to control the motor drive circuit. Since all of the transistors in the transistor are turned off, the short circuit current that generates the signal is transferred to the transistor,
Destruction of these semiconductors can be prevented by making the value smaller than the breakdown current of the diode.
