Abstract:
A control device for a multiple motor comprises: a drive unit constituted by a pair of upper and lower arm switching elements for driving the multiphase motor; a single current detection circuit for detecting a current value; a PWM signal generation unit for generating a plurality of first phase PWM signals within two control cycles on the basis of the current value and a carrier signal; a phase shift control unit for shifting a first PWM signal with a prescribed phase generated by the PWM signal generation unit by gradually changing the amount of phase shift within the two control cycles, and outputting the shifted first PWM signal to the drive unit; and a current detection observer for estimating a current value for the multiphase motor on the basis of the current value. The PWM signal generation unit generates a plurality of second phase PWM signals within two control cycles on the basis of the estimated current value and carrier signal. When the phase shift amount in a prescribed phase in the control cycle immediately before the present control cycle is zero and the phase shift amount in a prescribed phase in the present control cycle is not zero, the phase shift control unit gradually increases the shift amount from zero in the present control cycle and the next control cycle to thereby use the second phase PWM signals in the next control cycle.

Abstract:
A vehicle steering apparatus that obtains the appropriate steering torque to the steering angle without being affected by road surface state and changes of mechanical characteristics of the steering system due to aging. The steering apparatus includes a target steering torque generating section to generate a target steering torque, a converting section to convert the target steering torque into a target torsional angle, and a torsional angle control section to calculate a motor current command value so as to follow-up a torsional angle to the target torsional angle. The target steering torque generating section includes an offset correcting section to obtain the first torque signal from a characteristic depending on the set steering angle based on an offset value of the steering torque and outputs the first torque signal as a target steering torque. The steering apparatus drives and controls the motor based on the motor current command value.
