Abstract: A power supply device comprising: a magneto generator including a rotor including a magnet forming a magnetic field; a rectifying unit rectifying an alternating current of the generator to a direct current and supplying to an electrical load; a voltage detection unit detecting a voltage of the electrical load; an opening unit interrupting electrical conduction of an output of the generator; short-circuiting units electrically short-circuiting the output; a torque supplying device supplying torque to the rotor; a voltage control unit selectively performing one of opening-control of controlling on/off switching of the opening unit and short-circuit-control of controlling on/off switching of the short-circuiting units to control the voltage of the electrical load to a predetermined value in accordance with the voltage detected by the voltage detection unit; a switching control unit switching and controlling between the above two controls in accordance with an operating state regarding rotation of the rotor.

Abstract: A motor controlling apparatus having a controller for controlling a plurality of inverters correspondingly provided to each of a plurality of alternating-current motors is reduced in size, mass, and cost by effectively grouping operations performed by each calculation unit included in the controller. This controller for controlling the inverters includes: a first common calculation unit and a second common calculation unit that calculate and output control signals that are common to each of the inverters; individual calculation units that individually calculate and output a control signal related to each of the inverters; and a common logic calculation unit 60 that outputs a gate signal for controlling switching of each of the inverters based on the signals received from the first common calculation unit, the second common calculation unit, and the individual calculation units.
