  • Publication number: 20230052570
    Abstract: A driving system of a driving motor is proposed. The system includes: a stator having slots at which coils are wound; a first inverter connected to first ends of the coils of the stator; a second inverter connected to second ends of the coils of the stator; and a stage switch circuit configured to control an electrical connection between the second ends of the coils of the stator and the second inverter. In particular, the coils include a first coil set connected to an output terminal of the first inverter, and a second coil set connected to an input terminal of the second inverter. Currents having the same phase or currents having different AC phases are applied to the first coil set and the second coil set wound at the slots by controlling on and off of the stage switch circuit.

  • Publication number: 20220385121
    Abstract: In a driving system, first and second inverters are connected to a driving motor, one end of a stator winding through which 3-phase current flows is connected to an output line of the first inverter, and the other end of the stator winding is connected to an output line of the second inverter. A winding pattern of the driving motor includes: coils wound in slots defined in the stator and to which 3-phase current is applied; coils wound on innermost and outermost sides based on a direction toward a rotating shaft of the driving motor in the slots, and being energized by different AC phases; and coils disposed between a first coil located on the outermost side and a second coil located on the innermost side, and being energized by the same AC phases as those of the first and second coils.

  • Publication number: 20220158514
    Abstract: A motor winding pattern is provided. In a driving system in which a first inverter and a second inverter are connected to a drive motor, and one end of a stator winding through which a three phase currents flow is connected to an output line of the first inverter, and the other end of the stator winding is connected to an output line of the second inverter, coils to which three phase currents are applied are wound on slots defined in a stator of the drive motor, and coils to which alternating current phases different from each other are applied are wound inside and outside each of all the slots defined in the stator on the basis of direction toward a rotation axis of the drive motor.
