摘要:
A control system, method and article allows a monitoring module to monitor operation of a main controller in an electric drive, by providing questions and evaluating the accuracy and/or timeliness of responses from the main controller. Upon detection of an excessive number of incorrect or late responses, the monitoring module can shutdown operation, and may provide an alternative communications path, thereby preventing corrupt data from reaching a vehicle network, while providing communications for diagnostic and recovery such as by provision of new software or firmware instructions. The main controller may monitor the operation of the monitoring module, taking appropriate action if a fault is detected. Disabling a supply of power to a traction motor may be based on current operating conditions, such as speed.

A system and method for controlling an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) are presented. In an exemplary implementation, phase current ripple estimation techniques are utilized for variable frequency switching pulse-width modulation control of the IPMSM. In one implementation, the method includes controlling a three-phase inverter based on an initial switching frequency to generate a three-phase alternating current (AC) voltage for the IPMSM. Transformed voltages are determined in a rotating reference frame based on the three-phase AC voltage in the stationary reference frame. Current ripples are determined in the rotating reference frame based on the transformed voltages. Phase current ripples are determined in the stationary reference frame based on the current ripples in the rotating reference frame. A modified switching frequency for the three-phase inverter is determined based on the initial switching frequency and the phase current ripples. The three-phase inverter is then controlled based on the modified switching frequency.

Techniques are presented for more efficient three-phase inverter control for electrified vehicles (EVs). The techniques can be executed by a controller of an EV that includes one or more processors. Specifically, the techniques include closed-loop discontinuous pulse-width modulation (DPWM) control of a three-phase inverter based on electric motor current feedback. The three-phase inverter control techniques can be further based on electric motor/rotor position feedback. Based on the feedback, the techniques can select one of a plurality of zero-voltage vectors in real-time. The selected zero-voltage vector can be used when generating duty cycles for switching of the three-phase inverter, which can result in decreased switching losses and increased efficiency of the three-phase inverter.

A device to remove a metal servo horn in an efficient way by utilizing the lifting force to separate servo horn from a servo output shaft when screw is rotated counter-clockwise and hits against the concave of lower surface of upper front plate of the device. Clamping force provided by two fastening members combines the device and servo horn into one integrated unit to avoid the distortion of open end of the device when lifting force is greater than rigidity of the device. When a lifting force for removing the integrated unit is applied in direction opposite to installing direction of servo horn, it overcomes the friction between the inner splines of servo horn and the outer splines of servo output shaft then separates both splines. The removal of the servo horn from the servo output shaft is achieved.

Circuits and methods for use with an integrated circuit chip having internal back EMF estimation to control a permanent magnet synchronous motor includes an AC current feedback circuit, a scaling circuit, and a current regulator. Additionally, a speed regulator may be employed. In one embodiment, during operation at very low speed, the speed regulator is in an open loop control mode due to a back EMF detection limitation of the IC chip, and only the current regulator is active. A feedback current signal, together with a user-defined command current signal, serves the input of the current regulator, which controls the AC motor current and drives the motor speed from standstill. Once the motor speed reaches a certain level, the measured back EMF from the IC chip is sufficient to estimate the motor speed, which is compared with a user-defined command speed, and an error of the these two signals provides the input of a speed regulator.

A method and apparatus for controlling a permanent magnet synchronous motor (8) coupled to a turbo engine such that transient current and steady state current are minimized. The method comprises the steps of, for a given DC bus voltage, determining an acceleration profile as a function of a voltage-offset value, a low-speed rated speed value, a high-speed rated speed value, a first desired speed for warming up the turbo engine, and a second desired speed where the turbo engine has sufficient torque to accelerate to its rated speed without the aid of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (8).
