9 Claims, 3 Drawing Figures D2 POT l This invention relates to a speed control for a dc.
motor and has for its object to provide such a control in a simple and convenient form.
A speed control in accordance with the invention comprises in combination, first and second transistors connected together to form a square wave oscillator, means for adjusting the markspace ratio of the oscillator and a third transistor for connection in series with the motor and a source of supply, the conduction of said third transistor being controlled by said oscillator; whereby said means can actto vary the current flowing in the motor.
One example of a speed control will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram of the speed control together with the motor, a
FIG. 2 illustrates a portion of acontrol device in which the 'speed control is' utilised, and a FIG. 3 shows a modification of the circuit of FIG. 1.
With reference to FIG. 1 of the drawings thereare provided terminals and 11, for connection respectively to the positive and negative terminals of a source of d.c. supply 12. Also provided is a p-n-p transistor T1 having-its emitter connected to the positive terminal 10 and its collector connected to the negative terminal 11 by way of a resistor R1. The collector of transistor T1 is connected to the base terminal of a further p-n-p transistor T2 the emitter of which is connected to the positive terminal. 10 by way of a resistor R2. The base The collector of transistor T2 is connected to the negative terminal 11 byway of resistors R3 and R4 in series and the junction of these two resistors is connected-to the base of an n-p-n transistor T3. The emitter of this transistor is connected to the negative terminal 11 by way of a resistor R5 and the collector of transistor T3 is connected to the anode of adiode D3 the cathode of which is connected to the positive terminal 10. In parallel with the diode D3 is the motor 13 which may be of the permanent magnet type or a wound field type. Moreover, the emitter of transistor T3 is connected to the base terminals of n-p-n transistors T4 and T5. The emitters of these'two transistors are connected 2 to the negative terminal 11 whilst the collectors-thereof are connected to the collector of transistor T3;
ln operation, when theterminals wand 11 are connected to the source ofjs'upply the capacitor C1 charges by ;way ofresistors R3, andR4; the rightfhand portion of the resistance-element 'of'the potentiometer; the
diode D1 and the emitter'base path of transistor T1. By virtue of current flowing, transistor T1 is rendered conductive and this has the effect of raising the base voltage of transistor T2 so that the latter is rendered nonconductive. As the capacitor charges transistor T1 will begin to turn off and this will reduce the base voltage .of transistor T2 which thereby starts to conduct and raises the base potential of transistor T3. This also conducts and at the same time causes conduction of transistors T4 and T5 so that current flows in the motor.
Capacitor C1 discharges through the collector emitter path of transistor T2 at a rate dependent upon the resistance offered by the left hand portion of the resistance element of the potentiometer, and when the capacitor has discharged transistor T1 again starts to conduct and switches transistor T2 off-so that in turn tran' sistors T3, T4 and T5 are turned off. The rate of charge of the capacitor is determined largely by the resistance offered by the right hand portion of the resistance element of the potentiometer and the rate of discharge of the capacitor is determined largely by the resistance of the left hand portion of the potentiometer. Thus by varying the position of the slider the charge and discharge time of the square wave oscillator varies inversely whilst the overall frequency of operation of the oscillator remains substantially constant. Thus it will be seen that by varying the position of the slider of the potentiometer so that the mean value of the current flowing in the motor and therefore its speed, can be varied.
Diode D2 is provided to ensure that the charging current for the capacitor flows only through the right hand portion of the resistance element of potentiometer POTl and diode Dlis provided to protect trans'istorTl against reverse base emitter voltage when transistor T2 is switched on. I
One application for such a control circuit is to control the speed of one of the motors of a pair of motors for a wheel chair or the like, it being appreciated that a similar circuit is provided to control the other motor. The two motors ,are coupled to wheels on opposite sides of the wheel chair respectively and a special form of control is provided which couples the potentiometers and at the sametime provides for switching of the motor input terminals to achieve reverse rotation thereof.
The potentiometer POTl as shown in FIG. 1 is moditied for this purpose as shown in FIG. 3 and as will be seen from this Figure the resistance element of the potentiometer POT2 is provided with a centre tapping which is connected to the anode of diode D2, the opposite ends of the resistance element are connected together and to the cathode-ofdiode D1. When the slider of the potentiometer is'in the middle position as shown, the capacitor will charge slowly and be discharged quickly so that the mean value of the current flowing in the associated motor will be so small as to cause no rotation of the motor. The mean value of current increases as the slider is moved away in either direction from the mid position. v
Referring now to FIG. 2 the potentiometers are indi-, cated at 14 and they are operatively coupled toan opposed pair of pinions 15 of a differential gear which includes a pinion l6 meshing with the pinions 15. The pinion l6.is coupled to a control lever 17 and this is movable angularlyabout theaxis of rotation of the cont'r'ol members of the potentiometers l4 and also about an axis normal to the aforesaid axes. ln'addition the pinions 15 are coupled to cams 18 which control the operation of switches 19. The switches 19are included in the connections to the motors and are provided for reversing the polarities of the supply terminals to achieve reversal of the motors. Also associated with the cams are spring loaded cam followers 20 which bias the cams and also the lever 17 to the central position as shown in the drawings.
In operation, when the lever is moved in the forward or reverse direction the motors are energised in the aprection so that the wheel chair will move about a central axis. Movement of the lever in the lateral direction whilst it is forinstance in a forward position will effect a variation in therelative speed of the motors to provide a steering action.
