Patent number: 10481568Abstract: A system is disclosed for configuring a motor controller using a one-click configuration scheme, simplifying the process of motor configuration in drives and similar devices. The system includes a specify component, a display component, and a single-action identification and configuration component. The specify component specifies a motor in communication with the motor controller. The display component displays information on the status of the motor controller. The single-action identification and configuration component, in response to performance of only a single action (i.e., a single-click or equivalent starting signal), performs an identification and configuration sequence for the motor comprising at least three identification steps to establish a single parameter for driving the motor. The at least three identification steps can include measurements of system parameters, noise, and resonance. The recommend bandwidth for motor operation can be selected from within a range of permissible bandwidths.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2017Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: DANFOSS POWER ELECTRONICS A/SInventors: Gang Tian, Adam Reynolds, Chris Knaack

Patent number: 10386808Abstract: A system parameter identification system uses a combination of relay control and sinusoidal injection to derive accurate estimates of system parameters of a controlled system or process while satisfying the rate-limit associated with some control applications. The system uses rate-limited relay control with hysteresis to place the system in oscillation. The system then switches the control signal from relay-based control to open-loop sinusoidal control using oscillation frequency, amplitude, and phase information obtained during the relay control stage. During the sinusoidal control phase, the plant output passes through a bandpass filter at the oscillation frequency to get a clean sinusoidal signal. The phase difference between the input and output signals and the output/input amplitude ratio are then obtained and used to calculate of the system parameters.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2017Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: DANFOSS POWER ELECTRONICS A/SInventors: Gang Tian, Adam Reynolds

Patent number: 10222776Abstract: A motor control wizard implements a simple workflow for creating an application-specific program for operation of a motor control system. The wizard prompts for selection of an application area, which sensitizes the system to tune certain motor control parameters in accordance with the demands of the selected application area. The wizard also prompts for selection of a target devices, such as a particular type of motor with a set of basic operating parameters. With the target device and application area known, the wizard runs an automatic adaptation step without requiring additional user-settable parameters. The adaptation step yields an adapted motor control program based characteristics of the motor control system obtained via the adaptation step. The wizard then confirms operation of the motor using the adapted program. Additional features allow the user to fine tune parameters beyond this set of initial configuration parameters.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2016Date of Patent: March 5, 2019Assignee: LINESTREAM TECHNOLOGIESInventors: Adam Reynolds, Chris Knaack, Boris Eligulashvili, David Stopher
