Abstract: An inverter device includes a converter section, an inverter section, and a control device. The converter section full-wave rectifies a three-phase AC voltage and outputs a DC voltage including a ripple component having a frequency six times the frequency of the three-phase AC voltage. The inverter section converts the DC voltage including the ripple component from the converter section into an AC voltage and outputs the AC voltage to a motor. The control device, in a rotating coordinate in which an N-pole direction of a permanent magnet embedded in a rotor of the motor is taken as a d-axis and a direction orthogonal to the d-axis is taken as a q-axis, controls the inverter section so that a phase of a d-axis voltage Vd of the ripple component included in the DC voltage leads a phase of a q-axis voltage Vq.

Abstract: A subtractor subtracts an angular speed correction amount from a rotational speed command to obtain a corrected rotational speed command. An adder adds a second-axis current correction value to a ?c-axis current to obtain a corrected second-axis current. An angular ripple extraction unit obtains, from a rotational angle on a mechanical angle of a synchronous motor, a rotational angle difference being a ripple component of the rotational angle. An nth-order component extraction unit extracts nth-order components of a fundamental frequency of the rotational angle from the rotational angle difference. A torque conversion unit obtains nth-order components of an estimated value of vibration torque. A correction amount calculation unit obtains the second-axis current correction value using the nth-order components.

Abstract: A feedback amount calculation unit uses a deviation of a current from its command value or a deviation of an air-gap flux from its command value to calculate a feedback amount. A voltage error calculation unit calculates a variation range of a voltage error between a voltage value based on a voltage equation of the electric motor and a voltage command. The presence or absence of step-out of the electric motor is determined by comparison between the variation range of the voltage error and the feedback amount.

Abstract: A difference command generator generates a difference command equivalent to a time integral of three-phase voltage applied to an inductive load in a predetermined cycle in a complex plane. A vector command generator generates vector commands that are respectively time integrals of voltage vectors and compose the difference command. A switching signal generator generates switching signals for controlling three pairs of switches in an inverter on the basis of the vector commands. A phase-current computing unit obtains an estimated value for the three-phase current on the basis of a current flowing DC buses and the vector commands. At least two of the vector commands that are time integrals of different ones of the non-zero voltage vectors have magnitudes greater than or equal to a predetermined value corresponding to a minimum required amount of time to maintain switching patterns in order for the phase-current computing unit to detect the current.

Abstract: A motor control apparatus comprises the amplitude adjustment section and the peak voltage control section so as to adjust the torque control output in correspondence with the output voltage of the inverter. The peak voltage control section detects the peak voltage of the voltage command, and outputs the adjustment command instructing the amplitude adjustment section to suppress the amplitude when the peak voltage possibly exceed the previously determined value which is determined with respect to the maximum output voltage or maximum modulation rate of the inverter. The amplitude adjustment section lowers the gain by carrying out processing such that a constant proportional value is removed from the integration value, for example, in response to the supplying of the adjustment command.
