Title: Motor controller, and control method for the motor
Inventor: MOTOMI AKIRA
IPC: B60L50/16
Filed: 2002-08-29
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively suppress slippage, when a slippage has occurred in a driving wheel by the torque outputted by a motor, and also to restore appropriate quantity of torque, based on the situation of the slippage occurrence after suppression of the slip, thereby preventing a re-slipping.  <P>SOLUTION: The torque of the motor is limited gradually, using a map where the smaller the larger angular acceleration α is, the larger the upper limit value Tmax of torque becomes when the angular acceleration α of the rotating shaft of the motor exceeds threshold α slip, indicating the slippage. When the angular acceleration α drops by the torque limitation and falls below the threshold α slip, the temporal integration of the angular acceleration α is calculated, determining the time until the angular acceleration α falls below the threshold α slip again, after exceeding it as an integration period. Then, the limited torque is restored, based on the torque upper limit value which is computed based on the integration results of the angular acceleration α, when it is deemed that the angular acceleration α has dropped further, and the slip has converged.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
