モータ角度切替判定部243から入力された切替フラグSFが「L」の場合、切替部244は、θe7を選択し、補間Duty演算用のモータ角度(補間電気角)θsとして出力する(ステップS304)。
図66は、空間ベクトル変調部250の機能構成図である。
空間ベクトル変調部(変換部)250は、電圧の次元からDutyの次元に変換してから空間ベクトル変換演算を行う(変換工程)。空間ベクトル変調部250は、dq軸空間の正規演算用のDuty指令値D1m(m=d,q)(Duty_d,Duty_q)を3相Duty指令値(Duty_ua,Duty_va,Duty_wa)に変換して、3次高調波を重畳し、3相のDuty指令値Duty_u,Duty_v,Duty_wを出力する機能を有していれば良く、例えば本出願人による特開2017-70066号公報や国際公開第2017/098840号等で提案している空間ベクトル変調の手法を用いても良い。
図67は、最終Duty演算部200の機能構成図である。
最終Duty演算部200は、空間ベクトル変調部250からの正規Duty指令値Duty_n(n=u,v,w)が加算部221に入力される。加算部221でDuty50%のオフセットを加算されたDuty値は、Duty出力を0~100%の範囲(可変)で制限するリミッタ222に入力される。リミッタ222からは最終正規Duty指令値Dn(n=u,v,w)が出力される。
図68は、Duty出力設定部160A-1の機能構成図である。
Duty出力設定部(出力設定部)160A-1は、図68に示すように、制御周期Tcを1/5に分割した50μsの間隔(分割間隔)に合わせ、制御周期Tcからの経過時間Tに基づいて、出力する最終的なDuty指令値Du_o,Dv_o,Dw_oを切り替えて出力する(出力設定工程)。
本実施形態のモータ制御装置400Dによれば、補間電気角の演算に一次関数補間演算FOHを使用しており、二次関数補間演算等の補間演算と比較して、精度がわずかに低下するものの、マイクロコンピュータの演算処理量の増加を好適に抑えることができる。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Dは、モータ100が空間ベクトル駆動を用いたベクトル制御方式により制御されていたが、モータ制御装置の制御対象のモータはこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置の制御対象のモータは、例えば正弦波制御方式のブラシレスモータであってもよい。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、Duty指令値を直接の補間対象とせず、モータ角度(電気角)θeを補間対象とする。モータ角度θeはリニアリティが高ければ比較的ノイズが少なく、360°から0°に切替える角度変化以外に過渡的な変化がないため、FOH演算による補間電気角の算出および補間Duty指令値の算出において高い精度を確保することができる。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Dは、電動パワーステアリング装置300Dに搭載されていたが、モータ制御装置の態様はこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、高トルクが要求される一方で低騒音が要求されるモータ駆動装置に搭載することが適している。例えば、本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、装着者の歩行時の筋力を支援する歩行支援装置や、室内で動作する掃除装置等に搭載することで、モータの振動やモータに起因する音を好適に抑制し、可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を低減することができる。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Dは、制御周期Tcを1/5に分割した50μsの等間隔(分割間隔)でモータ角度(補間電気角)θsを推定していたが、モータ制御装置の態様はこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、制御周期Tcを任意の分割数で分割してもよく、また、不等間隔で分割してもよい。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Dは、制御周期Tcが250μs(周波数4KHz)であったが、モータ制御装置の態様はこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、制御周期Tcが100μs以上、250μs以下であるとき好適に可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を低減することができる。モータ制御装置が搭載するCPU等の性能が向上したり、制御対象のモータの極数が増加したりすることで、制御周期が250μsより短くなることが予測される。制御周期Tcが100μs以上、250μs以下である場合、上記実施形態と同様に、可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を生じる問題が発生するが、本発明に係るモータ制御装置によれば、ブラシレスモータの振動やモータに起因する音を好適に抑制し、可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を低減することができる。
本発明の第五実施形態について、図77から図95を参照して説明する。
図77は、本実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Eを搭載する電動パワーステアリング装置300Eの構成を示す模式図である。電動パワーステアリング装置300Eは、コラム部(ステアリングシャフト)に電動モータと減速機構とが配置されるコラムアシスト式電動パワーステアリング装置である。
電動パワーステアリング装置300Eは、ハンドル1のコラム軸(ステアリングシャフト、ハンドル軸)2、減速ギア3、ユニバーサルジョイント4a,4b、ピニオンラック機構5、タイロッド6a,6bを経て、更にハブユニット7a,7bを介して操向車輪8L,8Rに連結されている。また、コラム軸2には、ハンドル1の舵角θeを検出する舵角センサ14と、ハンドル1の操舵トルクThを検出するトルクセンサ10とが設けられており、ハンドル1の操舵力を補助するモータ100が減速ギア3を介してコラム軸2に連結されている。電動パワーステアリング装置300Eを制御するコントロールユニット(ECU)30には、バッテリ13から電力が供給されると共に、イグニションキー11を経てイグニションキー信号が入力される。
図78は、コントロールユニット30によって構成されるモータ制御装置400Eの機能構成図である。モータ制御装置400Eの機能は、CPU等において実行されるプログラムと、インバータ等の電子回路とを適宜組み合わせて実現される。以降の説明において電子回路として記載された機能が、CPU等において実行されるプログラムとして実現されていてもよい。
インバータ161は、図79に示すように、FETの3相ブリッジで構成されており、PWM-Duty値D1~D6でON/OFFされることによってモータ100を駆動する。インバータ161とモータ100との間には、アシスト制御停止時等に電流の供給を遮断するためのモータスイッチ101が介挿されている。上側アームはスイッチング素子としてのFETQ1,Q2,Q3で構成され、下側アームはFETQ4,Q5,Q6で構成されている。また、FETQ1およびQ4がU相、FETQ2およびQ5がV相、FETQ3およびQ6がW相の駆動素子である。
角速度演算部110Bは、モータ角度θeからモータ回転数Nおよびモータ角速度ωを演算により取得する。モータ回転数Nおよびモータ角速度ωは、モータ制御部39Eに入力される。
図80は、モータ制御部39Eの機能構成図である。
モータ制御部39Eは、電圧指令値演算部220と、電気角補間部240Eと、空間ベクトル変調部250と、最終Duty演算部200と、Duty出力設定部160A-1と、を備えている。
電圧指令値演算部220は、dq軸デッドタイム補償値演算部201と、dq軸電流フィードバック制御部203と、電圧/Duty変換係数演算部204と、加算部205と、dq軸Dutyクランプ/VR感応演算部210と、を備えている。
図81は、電気角補間部240Eの構成図である。
電気角補間部240Eは、入力されたモータ角度θeから、補間Duty演算用のモータ角度(補間電気角)θcを算出して、空間ベクトル変調部250に出力する(電気角補間工程)。
以降の説明において、制御周期Tcを1/5に分割した50μsの間隔でSOH演算により推定された4つの補間電気角1~4を「θss1~4」とする。また、制御周期Tcを1/5に分割した50μsの間隔でFOH演算により推定された4つの補間電気角1~4を「θsf1~4」とする。
SOH演算部241-1は、モータ角度θeの前回値の保持ユニット245-1および保持ユニット245-2と、係数部B0(245-3)と、係数部B1(245-4)と、係数部B2(245-5)と、加算部245-6と、加算部245-7と、を有している。
FOH演算部241D-1は、モータ角度θeの前回値の保持ユニット245-1および保持ユニット245-2と、係数部B0(245-3)と、係数部B1(245-4)と、係数部B2(245-5)と、加算部245-6と、加算部245-7と、を有している。
切替部244は、切替フラグSFに基づいて、SOH演算後の補間Duty演算用のモータ角度(補間電気角)θsを選択して出力する。
補間演算切替判定部247は、入力されるモータ回転数Nの絶対値を算出する絶対値算出部247-1と、補間演算判定部247-3と、補間判定部247-4と、を有している。
電気角補間部240Eにモータ角度(電気角)θeが入力される(ステップS401)。
ロールオーバ処理部241-2は、SOH演算されたモータ角度θe1をロールオーバ処理してモータ角度θe2を出力する(ステップS411)。
ロールオーバ処理部242-3は、オフセット処理されたモータ角度θe3をロールオーバ処理してモータ角度θe4を出力する(ステップS4421)。
SOH演算部242-4は、入力されたモータ角度θe4に対して、補間演算切替フラグHFに基づいてSOH演算もしくはFOH演算を行う(ステップS422)。モータ角度θeは、次のSOH演算において前回値として使用するため、保持ユニット245-1に入力される。また、保持ユニット245-1に入力されていた前回値は、次のSOH演算において前々回値として使用するため、保持ユニット245-2に入力される。
SOH演算されたモータ角度θe5は減算部242-6に入力され、固定部242-5から入力される係数180°でオフセット戻し処理が行われる(ステップS423)。
オフセット戻し処理されたモータ角度θe6は、ロールオーバ処理部242-7でロールオーバ処理されてモータ角度θe7が出力される(ステップS424)。
この条件に当てはまる場合(YESの場合)、モータ角度切替判定部243は、切替フラグSFを「H」にする。
上記条件に当てはまらない場合(NOの場合)、モータ角度θeは0°以上で90°以下、または270°より大きく360°以下であり、モータ角度切替判定部243は、切替フラグSFを「L」にする。
モータ角度切替判定部243から入力された切替フラグSFが「H」の場合、切替部244は、θe2を選択し、補間Duty演算用のモータ角度(補間電気角)θsとして出力する(ステップS403)。
モータ角度切替判定部243から入力された切替フラグSFが「L」の場合、切替部244は、θe7を選択し、補間Duty演算用のモータ角度(補間電気角)θsとして出力する(ステップS404)。
この条件に当てはまる場合(YESの場合)、第二切替部246は、モータ角度(電気角)θeをθcとして出力する(ステップS406)。
上記条件に当てはまらない場合(NOの場合)、第二切替部246は、補間Duty演算用のモータ角度θsをθcとして出力する(ステップS407)。
この場合、図92(D)に示すように、補間電気角θsが過渡的な角度変動の影響を含む可能性が高くなる。この場合、補間演算判定部247-3は、補間演算切替フラグHFを「H」に切り替え、SOH演算をFOH演算に切り換える。FOH演算に切り換えることで、コントロールユニット30の演算処理負荷が低減され、モータ角度切替判定部243の判定が正常化される。その結果、過渡的な角度変動の影響を含まない補間電気角θsが出力される確率は高くなる。
図93は、空間ベクトル変調部250の機能構成図である。
空間ベクトル変調部(変換部)250は、電圧の次元からDutyの次元に変換してから空間ベクトル変換演算を行う(変換工程)。空間ベクトル変調部250は、dq軸空間の正規演算用のDuty指令値D1m(m=d,q)(Duty_d,Duty_q)を3相Duty指令値(Duty_ua,Duty_va,Duty_wa)に変換して、3次高調波を重畳し、3相のDuty指令値Duty_u,Duty_v,Duty_wを出力する機能を有していれば良く、例えば本出願人による特開2017-70066号公報や国際公開第2017/098840号等で提案している空間ベクトル変調の手法を用いても良い。
図94は、最終Duty演算部200の機能構成図である。
最終Duty演算部200は、空間ベクトル変調部250からの正規Duty指令値Duty_n(n=u,v,w)が加算部221に入力される。加算部221でDuty50%のオフセットを加算されたDuty値は、Duty出力を0~100%の範囲(可変)で制限するリミッタ222に入力される。リミッタ222からは最終正規Duty指令値Dn(n=u,v,w)が出力される。
図95は、Duty出力設定部160A-1の機能構成図である。
Duty出力設定部(出力設定部)160A-1は、図95に示すように、制御周期Tcを1/5に分割した50μsの間隔(分割間隔)に合わせ、制御周期Tcからの経過時間Tに基づいて、出力する最終的なDuty指令値Du_o,Dv_o,Dw_oを切り替えて出力する(出力設定工程)。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Eは、モータ100が空間ベクトル駆動を用いたベクトル制御方式により制御されていたが、モータ制御装置の制御対象のモータはこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置の制御対象のモータは、例えば正弦波制御方式のブラシレスモータであってもよい。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、Duty指令値を直接の補間対象とせず、モータ角度(電気角)θeを補間対象とする。モータ角度θeはリニアリティが高ければ比較的ノイズが少なく、360°から0°に切替える角度変化以外に過渡的な変化がないため、SOH演算による補間電気角の算出および補間Duty指令値の算出において高い精度を確保することができる。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Eは、電動パワーステアリング装置300Eに搭載されていたが、モータ制御装置の態様はこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、高トルクが要求される一方で低騒音が要求されるモータ駆動装置に搭載することが適している。例えば、本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、装着者の歩行時の筋力を支援する歩行支援装置や、室内で動作する掃除装置等に搭載することで、モータの振動やモータに起因する音を好適に抑制し、可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を低減することができる。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Eは、制御周期Tcを1/5に分割した50μsの等間隔(分割間隔)でモータ角度(補間電気角)θsを推定していたが、モータ制御装置の態様はこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、制御周期Tcを任意の分割数で分割してもよく、また、不等間隔で分割してもよい。
例えば、上記実施形態に係るモータ制御装置400Eは、制御周期Tcが250μs(周波数4KHz)であったが、モータ制御装置の態様はこれに限定されない。本発明に係るモータ制御装置は、制御周期Tcが100μs以上、250μs以下であるとき好適に可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を低減することができる。モータ制御装置が搭載するCPU等の性能が向上したり、制御対象のモータの極数が増加したりすることで、制御周期が250μsより短くなることが予測される。制御周期Tcが100μs以上、250μs以下である場合、上記実施形態と同様に、可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を生じる問題が発生するが、本発明に係るモータ制御装置によれば、ブラシレスモータの振動やモータに起因する音を好適に抑制し、可聴帯域のモータに起因する音を低減することができる。

dq軸/3相交流変換部150で3相に変換された電圧制御指令値Vref_u,Vref_v,Vref_wは、PWM制御部163に入力され、演算された3相のDuty指令値に基づくPWM信号により、図98に示すような上下アームのブリッジ構成で成るインバータ(インバータ印加電圧VR)161を介してモータ100が駆動される。上側アームはスイッチング素子としてのFETQ1,Q2,Q3で構成され、下側アームはFETQ4,Q5,Q6で構成されている。また、FETQ1及びQ4がU相、FETQ2及びQ5がV相、FETQ3及びQ6がW相の駆動となっている。
