MOTOR CONTROL DEVICE AND STEERING SYSTEM HAVING THE SAME

A main power supply having a large capacity and a backup power supply having a small capacity are switchable by a power supply switching determination unit in a system. A motor control device drives a motor by the main power supply or the backup power supply. A drive control unit outputs a drive signal, calculated by feedback control of the current detection value with respect to the current command value, to an inverter circuit. When the power supply switching determination unit switches from the main power supply to the backup power supply, the drive control unit moves from a normal control using the main power supply to a backup control that restricts an electric power consumption and prevents the backup power supply from stopping.

In the present disclosure, the three-phase short-circuit current of the motor is taken as the end point of flux weakening regulation, and when voltage saturation occurs, the motor control system can exit saturation; since an inverter supplies power through a power battery bus at the terminal of the motor, the terminal voltage thereof will not be as low as zero, and there is a large margin to deal with abnormal factors; by introducing a dq current and correcting it at the same time, the pressure of resisting voltage saturation can be distributed to the dq current, thus avoiding excessive deviation of an output torque caused by excessive uniaxial current regulation. According to the present disclosure, the influence of the flux weakening control process on the output torque of the drive system is reduced as much as possible while ensuring the safety of the drive system.
