    摘要: When the estimated motor temperature becomes equal to or higher than the first predetermined temperature, an addition angle correction unit temporarily decreases the absolute value of the addition angle output from an addition angle limiter at time intervals. The addition angle correction unit makes the time interval shorter as the estimated motor temperature increases. When the time interval becomes equal to or shorter than the predetermined threshold, that is, when the estimated motor temperature becomes equal to or higher than the second predetermined temperature that is higher than the first predetermined temperature, the addition angle correction unit notifies a command current value changing unit of a current stop command. Thus, the γ-axis command current value is changed to 0, and therefore the steering mode is shifted to the manual steer mode.

    摘要: A motor is driven by the γ-axis current of a γδ coordinate system that is an imaginary rotating coordinate system. A command current value preparation unit sets the γ-axis command current value based on the command steering torque and the detected steering torque. The command current value preparation unit includes a command current increase/decrease amount calculation unit and an addition unit. The command current increase/decrease amount calculation unit calculates the current increase/decrease amount for the command current value based on the sign of the command steering torque and the deviation of the detected steering torque from the command steering torque. The current increase/decrease amount calculated by the command current increase/decrease amount calculation unit is added to the immediately preceding value of the command current value by the addition unit. Thus, the command current value in the present calculation cycle is calculated.

    摘要: A motor control unit includes a detected steering torque correction unit that corrects the detected steering torque that is detected by a torque sensor and then subjected to a limitation process by a steering torque limiter. When the absolute value of the detected steering torque is equal to or smaller than a predetermined value, the detected steering torque correction unit corrects the detected steering torque to 0. When the absolute value of the detected steering torque is larger than the predetermined value, the detected steering torque correction unit outputs the detected steering torque without correction. A PI control unit calculates the addition angle based on the deviation of the control torque obtained through correction by the detected steering torque correction unit from the command steering torque.

    摘要: An electric power steering system includes a motor that applies assist force to a steering system, and updates a motor resistance (Rm) that is a value indicating a resistance of the motor. Specifically, the motor resistance (Rm) is updated on the basis of the fact that an induced voltage (EX) of the motor is smaller than a first determination value (GA). In addition, when the induced voltage (EX) is smaller than or equal to a second determination value (GB), a divided value that is obtained by dividing a motor voltage (Vm) by a motor current (Im) is set as a new motor resistance (Rm).

    摘要: A current increase-decrease amount (ΔIγ*) computed by a command current increase-decrease amount computing unit is added to an immediately preceding value (Iγ*(n−1)) of a command current value (Iγ*) in an adder. The command current value (Iγ*) obtained by the adder is given to a high/low limit limiter. The high/low limit limiter limits the command current value (Iγ*), obtained by the adder, to a value between a low limit value (ξmin (ξmin≧0)) and a high limit value (ξmax (ξmax>ξmin)). A high limit value setting unit obtains the high limit value (ξmax) corresponding to the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed sensor, from a vehicle speed-vs.-high limit value map set by a map creating/updating unit, and sets the obtained high limit value (ξmax) in the high/low limit limiter.

    摘要: An electric power steering system determines a steering state of a steering wheel on the basis of a current (Im) of a motor applying assist force to a steering system and a steering speed (ωs) of the steering wheel. A state where the steering wheel is retained at a position other than a neutral position is a retained state, and a state where the steering wheel is placed at the neutral position is a neutral state. When the steering speed (ωs) is lower than a determination value (ωa) and the motor current (Im) is larger than a reference value (Ix), it is determined whether the steering state is the neutral state. When the steering speed (ωs) is lower than the determination value (ωa), the motor current (Im) is larger than the reference value (Ix), and the steering state is determined to be the neutral state at immediately preceding determination, the steering state is determined to be the neutral state.

    摘要: A F/B gain control unit computes a first change component by executing torque feedback control based on a torque deviation using a feedback gain that is computed by a F/B gain variable control unit. The F/B gain variable control unit computes one of two different feedback gains that correspond to a “first computation mode” in which the first change component is used as an addition angle and a “second computation mode” in which a value obtained by correcting the first change component by an estimated motor rotation angular velocity is used as the addition angle, respectively. A feedback gain used in the first computation mode is set such that a response at the feedback gain is higher than that at a feedback gain used in the second computation mode.
