Technical Field

The invention relates to an electric tool, in particular to an electric tool with a higher motor output rotating speed.

Background

The conventional electric tool generally adopts a traditional square wave to drive a motor therein, and controls the speed and the torque of the motor by adjusting the duty ratio of a square wave signal.

For a brushless dc motor, in a conventional square wave control method, in order to rotate the brushless dc motor, a driving circuit has a plurality of driving states, in which a stator winding of the brushless dc motor generates a magnetic field, and a controller is configured to output a corresponding driving signal to the driving circuit according to a rotation position of a rotor to switch the driving states of the driving circuit, so as to change a state of a voltage applied to the winding of the brushless dc motor, generate an alternating magnetic field to drive the rotor to rotate, and further implement driving of the brushless dc motor.

For a brushless motor, in a conventional square wave modulation control manner, in one electrical cycle, the brushless motor has only six states, or stator currents have six states (three-phase bridge arms have six switching states). Each current state can be regarded as a vector moment in one direction, and six vectors are regularly converted step by step, so that the rotor is driven to rotate, and the motor rotor can rotate synchronously.

The traditional square wave control is simple and convenient to implement, but because the square wave control only has six discrete and discontinuous vector moments, the motor efficiency is low, the whole machine efficiency is low, and under the heavy load condition, the locked rotor condition can frequently occur.

In addition, the conventional square wave control method is difficult to further increase after the motor speed reaches a certain speed, and under the condition of light load, the speed is generally expected to be as large as possible. Therefore, the speed can be adjusted by configuring different gear ratios by means of a mechanical structure, but the speed adjustment range is greatly limited by a motor by means of the mechanical structure, and the weight of the whole machine is increased by means of the mechanical gear structure, so that the use is influenced.

Figure 8 illustrates the manner in which the drill of figure 1 is controlled in terms of motor bus current versus motor torque. The solid line represents the control method using the present embodiment, and the thick dotted line represents the control method using the conventional square wave. The horizontal axis represents motor output torque in n.m, and the vertical axis represents motor bus current in a.

In the present embodiment, the circuit system shown in fig. 2 and the controller 43 shown in fig. 4 are adopted, and the controller 43 controls the current of the motor 47 by controlling the voltage applied to the motor 47 by the power supply device 41, wherein the voltage is three-phase symmetrical sine wave voltages Uu, Uv and Uw, and the Uu, Uv and Uw are 120 ° out of phase with each other.

Specifically, the controller 43 dynamically adjusts the current applied to the stator according to at least one of the rotation speed of the motor 47, the current of the motor, and the position of the rotor of the motor such that the bus current of the motor varies with a first current torque characteristic curve in a first torque interval (i.e., a torque interval from 0 to Tm 0) and with a second current torque characteristic curve in a second torque interval (i.e., a torque interval from Tm0 to Tm 1), wherein, the slope of a first virtual straight line L1 where 0 and Tm0 are selected in the first current-torque characteristic curve is defined as a first slope, the slope of a second virtual straight line L2 of the second current-torque characteristic curve where Tm0 and Tm1 are selected is defined as a second slope, the first slope of a first virtual straight line L1 where the first current torque characteristic curve is located is greater than the second slope of a second virtual straight line L2 where the second current torque characteristic curve is located. Alternatively, the first slope is a slope of the first current torque characteristic curve at any point in a first torque interval (i.e., torque interval 0 to Tm 0), and the second slope is a slope of the second current torque characteristic curve at any point in a second torque interval (i.e., torque interval Tm0 to Tm 1). That is to say that the busbar current of the motor 47 presents an inflection point R, the first slope before the inflection point R being greater than the second slope after the inflection point R. That is, before the inflection point, the bus current of the motor increases at a faster rate with the motor torque, and after the inflection point, the bus current of the motor increases at a slower rate with the motor torque. That is, the bus current increases with an increase in torque in the first current torque characteristic curve and the second current torque characteristic curve, but the current increases faster in the first current torque characteristic curve with an increase in torque, and the current increases slower in the second current torque characteristic curve with an increase in torque. That is, in the control method of the present embodiment, the speed of current increase is somewhat fast when the electric power tool is under light load; under the condition of heavy load, the speed of increasing the current of the electric tool is slower.

Referring to fig. 8, in the control method of the present invention, when the controller 43 controls the driving circuit 44 to rotate the motor 47 at the preset torque, the output current of the power supply device 41 is the second output current; assuming that the controller 43 controls the driving circuit 44 in the first control manner such that the motor 47 rotates at the preset torque, the output current of the power supply device 41 is the first output current; wherein the second output current is less than the first output current. In this embodiment, the first control manner is a conventional square wave control manner.

It should be noted that "the controller is assumed to control the driving circuit in the first control mode" or "the controller is assumed to control the driving circuit in the third control mode" in the present invention is only used for comparing the control mode of the present invention with other control modes, and optionally, the first control mode and the third control mode are a conventional square wave control mode. That is, the controller 43 of the present invention is only used for implementing the control method of the present invention, and is not used for implementing the first control method or the third control method to control the driving circuit 44. The following references to "assuming that the controller controls the driving circuit in the first control manner" or "assuming that the controller controls the driving circuit in the third control manner" are all as described above, and will not be described in detail below.

As a specific example, the preset torque is set to Tm2, at this time, the first output current outputted by the power supply device 41 by using the conventional square wave control method corresponds to the motor bus current I1 in fig. 8, and the second output current outputted by the power supply device 41 by using the control method of this embodiment corresponds to the motor bus current I2 in fig. 8, and the second output current I2 is smaller than the first output current I1.

With reference to fig. 8 and 11, in the heavy load area, compared with the conventional square wave control method, the control method of the present embodiment has the advantages that the bus current of the motor 47 is smaller, the output current of the power supply device 41 is smaller, and the output power of the electric tool 10 is higher under the same output torque, so that energy can be saved, and the navigation ability of the battery pack can be improved for the battery pack used as the power supply device 41.

Figure 9 is a graph illustrating the manner in which the power drill of figure 1 is controlled in terms of the speed of the motor versus the torque of the motor. The present embodiment employs the circuit system shown in fig. 2 and the controller 43 shown in fig. 4, and the controller 43 controls the current of the motor 47 by controlling the voltage applied to the motor 47 by the power supply device 41, wherein the voltage is three-phase symmetrical sine wave voltages Uu, Uv, and Uw, and the voltage Uu, Uv, and Uw are 120 ° out of phase with each other.

Specifically, the controller 43 dynamically adjusts the current loaded on the stator according to at least one of the rotation speed of the motor 47, the current of the motor and the position of the rotor of the motor, the controller 43 controls the current loaded on the stator by controlling the voltage loaded on the motor 47, the voltage loaded on the stator is three-phase symmetrical sine wave voltages Uu, Uv and Uw, the three-line voltages Uu, Uv and Uw mutually form a phase difference of 120 °, the current loaded on the stator enables the stator to generate a stator flux linkage, and the controller 43 dynamically adjusts the current on the stator so that the included angle between the stator flux linkage and the rotor flux linkage ranges from 90 ° to 135 °.

When the controller 43 of the present embodiment controls the drive circuit 44, the motor 47 obtains the second constant speed torque section; assuming that the controller 43 controls the drive circuit 44 in the first control manner, the motor 47 obtains a first constant speed torque interval; wherein the length of the second constant speed torque interval is greater than the length of the first constant speed torque interval.

In fig. 9, the horizontal axis represents motor output torque in n.m, and the vertical axis represents motor speed n in rpm. The solid line shows an effect curve of the change of the motor speed with the motor torque in the control method of the present embodiment, and the thick dotted line shows an effect curve of the change of the motor speed with the motor torque in the conventional square wave control method. In the embodiment, the rotating speed of the motor is basically in a constant speed state within the torque range of 0-Tm 4, but the traditional square wave control mode does not have such a long constant speed range.

As can be seen from fig. 9, compared with the conventional square wave control method, the control method of the present embodiment has the advantage of a wide constant speed range, which has a wide constant speed characteristic for some electric tools working in light and medium load ranges, such as electric drills, electric screwdrivers, and the like, and can obtain a better and more consistent working effect.

In the present embodiment, when the controller 43 controls the driving circuit 44 to rotate the motor 47 in the preset torque interval, the motor 47 obtains the second rotation speed; assuming that the controller 43 controls the driving circuit 44 in a first control manner to make the motor rotate in the preset torque interval, the motor obtains a first rotation speed; wherein the second rotational speed is greater than the first rotational speed. Referring to fig. 9, alternatively, the preset torque interval is set to be a torque interval with a torque greater than Tm4, that is, greater than Tm 4), for example, as the torque interval from Tm3 to Tm2 in fig. 9, with the control method of the present invention, when the motor outputs the same torque (for example, Tm 2), the motor rotation speed is higher than that of the conventional square wave control method, and for electric tools such as electric drills, the higher motor rotation speed means higher working efficiency. Furthermore, in conjunction with fig. 8 and fig. 9, when the torque (for example, Tm 2) is preset, the control method of the present invention is adopted, the motor speed is higher than that of the conventional square wave control method, but the required current is smaller than that of the conventional square wave control method, that is, the control method of the present invention can obtain a higher speed with a smaller current, and for the electric power tool using the battery pack as the power supply device 41, the cruising ability of the battery pack can be improved.

Fig. 10 compares the effect of the control method of the present embodiment with that of the conventional square wave control method in terms of the motor efficiency versus motor torque curve. The horizontal axis represents motor output torque in n.m, and the vertical axis represents motor efficiency, without unit. The solid line represents an effect curve of the motor efficiency varying with the motor torque in the control method of the present embodiment, and the thick dotted line represents an effect curve of the motor efficiency varying with the motor torque in the conventional square wave control method. As can be seen from fig. 10, the motor using the control method of the embodiment has higher efficiency than the conventional square wave control method.

Figure 11 illustrates the manner in which the power drill of figure 1 is controlled in terms of power tool output versus motor torque. Wherein the horizontal axis represents motor output torque in n.m, and the vertical axis represents power output of the electric tool in W. The solid line represents the control method using the present embodiment, and the thick dotted line represents the control method using the conventional square wave.

The controller 43 of the present embodiment controls the driving circuit 44 to make the output power of the electric power tool 10 be the second output power w2 when the motor 47 rotates at the preset torque (for example, Tm 6) in the preset torque interval (for example, greater than Tm 5); assuming that the controller 44 controls the driving circuit 44 in the first control manner to make the motor 47 rotate at the preset torque (for example, Tm 6) within the preset torque interval (for example, greater than Tm 5), the output power of the electric tool 10 is the first output power w 1; wherein the second output power w2 is greater than the first output power w 1. In this embodiment, the first control manner is a conventional square wave control manner.

As can be seen from fig. 11, compared with the conventional square wave control method, the control method of the present embodiment enables the output power of the electric power tool 10 to be higher with the same output torque of the motor 47. Referring to fig. 8 and 11, when the motor rotates at a predetermined torque (e.g., Tm 2) within a predetermined torque interval (e.g., greater than Tm 1), the control method of the present invention outputs a smaller current from the power supply device 41 and the output power of the electric power tool is higher than the conventional square wave control method, so that the battery pack as the power supply device 41 can have a higher cruising ability.

Referring to fig. 8, 9 and 11, when the motor rotates at a predetermined torque (e.g., Tm 2) within a predetermined torque interval (e.g., greater than Tm 1), the control method of the present invention enables the current output by the power supply device 41 to be smaller, the output power of the electric tool 10 to be higher, and the rotation speed of the motor 47 to be higher, compared to the conventional square wave control method, so that the battery pack as the power supply device 41 can have higher cruising ability.

The angle between the actual stator flux linkage Ψ s and the rotor flux linkage Ψ f is preferably in the range of 90 ° to 135 °, or 135 ° to 180 °. That is, the stator flux linkage is dynamically adjusted by establishing a Te = f (Ψ s, Ψ f, β) functional relationship, so that an included angle between the actual stator flux linkage Ψ s and the actual rotor flux linkage Ψ f ranges from 90 ° to 135 °. In other embodiments of the invention, the stator flux linkage can also be dynamically adjusted by establishing a Te = f (Ψ s, Ψ f, β) functional relationship, so that an included angle between the stator flux linkage and the rotor flux linkage can also range from 90 ° -120 °, or from 110 ° -130 °, or from 110 ° -140 °, or from 105 ° -115 °, or from 115 ° -145 °, or from 120 ° -160 °, or from 135 ° -165 °.

And in a second torque interval (i.e. the interval greater than Tm 3), the drive circuit 74 Is controlled in a second characteristic control manner such that the torque of the motor 77 Is continuously greater than a preset threshold KtIs for at least a preset time period, the preset threshold KtIs being set in dependence on the characteristic kt of the motor and the current Is of the motor. And the motor load torque of the first load section is smaller than that of the second load section.

Of course, the present embodiment is not limited to the controller 73 shown in fig. 14, and the controller 43 shown in fig. 4 may be used to adjust the angle between the stator flux and the rotor flux by directly controlling the stator flux, or indirectly control the stator flux by controlling the current or voltage vector, so as to adjust the angle between the stator flux and the rotor flux, and it is also possible to achieve that the motor speed of the present embodiment is higher than that of the conventional square wave control method under the same motor output torque no matter under light or medium or heavy load.

The control signal is a PWM signal. The duty cycle of the PWM signal varies with a change in the position of the rotor. The controller 43 controls the drive circuit 44 so that the input voltage of the motor 47 varies approximately in a sine wave. The motor 47 is a three-phase motor, and three-phase input voltages of the motor 47 mutually form a phase angle of 120 degrees.

Fig. 18 compares the effect of the control method of the present embodiment with the conventional square wave control method in terms of a motor efficiency-torque relationship curve, in which the horizontal axis represents the motor output torque in n.m and the vertical axis represents the motor efficiency, without unit.

As can be seen from the figure, the motor adopting the control method of the embodiment has higher efficiency in the light and medium load range compared with the conventional square wave control method.

Referring to fig. 19, the effect of the control method of the present embodiment is compared with the conventional square wave control method in terms of a motor bus current versus motor torque curve, where the horizontal axis represents the motor output torque in n.m and the vertical axis represents the motor bus current in a. The solid line shows an effect curve of the motor efficiency varying with the motor torque in the control mode of the present embodiment, and the thick dotted line shows an effect curve of the motor efficiency varying with the motor torque in the conventional square wave control mode.

In the present embodiment, the bus current of the motor 77 increases with a first slope in a first torque interval (e.g., 0 to Tn 2) and with a second slope in a second torque interval (e.g., Tn2 to t 4), wherein the first slope is greater than the second slope. In the present embodiment, regardless of whether a certain torque section of the first load section or a certain torque section of the second load section, or a certain torque section spanning the first load section and the second load section, the bus current of the motor 77 has an inflection point S, and the first slope before the inflection point S is larger than the second slope after the inflection point S. That is, before the inflection point S, the bus current of the motor increases at a fast rate with the motor torque, and after the inflection point, the bus current of the motor increases at a slow rate with the motor torque. Alternatively, the first slope may be the slope of a virtual straight line connecting the two end points 0 and Tn2 of the first torque interval to the corresponding rotational speed, the second slope may be the slope of a virtual straight line L3 connecting the two end points of the second torque interval, and the second slope may be the slope of a virtual straight line L4 connecting the two end points Tn2 and Tn4 of the second torque interval to the corresponding rotational speed. Optionally, the first slope is a slope of the motor bus current at any point on the torque curve over the first torque interval, and the second slope is a slope of the motor bus current at any point on the torque curve over the second torque interval.

In the present embodiment, when the controller 73 controls the driving circuit 74 in the second characteristic control manner to rotate the motor 77 at the preset torque, the output current of the power supply device 71 is the second output current; assuming that the controller 74 controls the driving circuit 74 in the third control mode to rotate the motor 77 at the preset torque, the output current of the power supply device 71 is a third output current; wherein the second output current is less than the third output current.

Referring to fig. 19, at the preset torque Tn4, the bus current of the motor under the second characteristic control mode of the present embodiment is I3, and the bus current under the conventional square wave control is I4, I3< I4. Therefore, compared with the conventional square wave control method, the second control method using the control method of the embodiment outputs a smaller current at medium and heavy loads from the power supply device 71.

Referring to fig. 20, in the present embodiment, when the controller 73 controls the drive circuit 74 in the first characteristic control manner, the output power of the electric power tool 60 is the first output power; when the controller 73 controls the drive circuit 74 in the second characteristic control manner, the output power of the electric power tool 60 is the second output power; assuming that the controller 73 controls the drive circuit 74 in the third control mode, the output power of the electric power tool 60 is the third output power; the first output power is greater than the third output power, and the second output power is greater than the third output power. Alternatively, the third control manner is a conventional square wave control manner, that is, in the present embodiment, the output power of the electric power tool 60 is higher than that of the electric power tool 60 under the conventional square wave control regardless of the first characteristic control manner or the second characteristic control manner.

Fig. 20 compares the effect of the control method of the present embodiment with the conventional square wave control method in terms of a curve of the output power of the electric power tool with the torque of the motor in n.m on the horizontal axis and the output power of the electric power tool in W on the vertical axis. As can be seen from fig. 20, compared to the conventional square wave control method, the control method of the present embodiment has a higher output power of the electric power tool 60 under the condition that the motor output torque is the same.

With reference to fig. 19 and 20, in the control method of the present invention, when the motor rotates at the preset torque (for example, Tn 4) in the preset torque interval (greater than Tn 3), the bus current of the motor is smaller, the output current of the power supply device 71 is smaller, and the output power of the electric tool 60 is higher, so that energy can be saved, which makes the battery pack have higher cruising ability for the electric tool using the battery pack as the power supply device 71.

With reference to fig. 16, 19 and 20, in the control method of the present invention, when the motor rotates at the preset torque (for example, Tn 4) in the preset torque interval (greater than Tn 3), the motor bus current is smaller, the output current of the power supply device 71 is smaller, and at the same time, the output power of the electric power tool 60 is higher, and the motor rotation speed is higher, so that energy can be saved, which makes the battery pack have higher cruising ability for the electric power tool using the battery pack as the power supply device 71.

In the above embodiments of the present invention, the characteristic curves of fig. 8 to 11 are obtained by establishing a Te = f (Ψ s, Ψ f, β) functional relationship and dynamically adjusting an included angle between the stator flux Ψ s and the rotor flux Ψ f, or the characteristic curves of fig. 16 to 20 are obtained by implementing the electric tool, so as to make the output performance of the electric tool of the present invention better.

In other embodiments of the present invention, a controller is used to output a PWM signal that varies with a change in rotor position according to at least one of a current of the motor, a rotational speed of the motor, and a position of the rotor to control the driving circuit, such that an input voltage of the motor varies in an approximately sine wave or saddle wave manner, and an amplitude and/or a phase of the input voltage and/or current is adjusted to adjust an angle between the stator flux linkage and the rotor flux linkage, such that the motor has continuous and alternating current states on the three-phase stator windings in at least one electrical cycle or a portion of the electrical cycle, and the three-phase input voltage of the motor has a phase angle of 120 ° with respect to each other. The current states of the three-phase stator windings can synthesize vector moments which approximately continuously move along the circumference, and the rotor of the motor synchronously rotates along with the vector moments which approximately continuously move along the circumference, so that compared with the traditional square wave control mode in which only 6 discrete and discontinuous driving states exist, the motor driving efficiency can be improved. By the above control method, the electric tool of the present invention can obtain the better output performance of fig. 8 to 11 or fig. 16 to 20.
