  • Patent number: 11967862
    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: 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.

  • Patent number: 10705145
    Abstract: A method of extracting impedance parameters of a three-phase motor utilizes a five-terminal network including first to third winding wires and opposite shaft ends. The method includes connecting two terminals, selected from among the winding wires and the shaft ends, to input and output terminals in order to measure voltage and current of the terminals and to extract input impedance parameters of the five-terminal network, extracting conversion parameters including voltage and current transfer matrices in a common mode, in which the winding wires are commonly connected to the input and output terminals, and in a differential mode, in which the winding wires are differentially connected to the input and output terminals, and calculating impedance parameters in a mixed mode, in which transfer impedance components for the shaft ends in the common mode and the differential mode are mixed, using the extracted input impedance parameters and conversion parameters.

  • Publication number: 20160121742
    Abstract: A system and method for controlling charging a battery of a hybrid vehicle are provided that charge the battery using a hybrid starter generator during limiting motor power for high temperature protection of the driving motor. Accordingly, a frequency of a driving motor reaching a power limitation due to high temperature protection is minimized while a driving time and frequency of a driving motor is reduced, by charging the battery by driving the hybrid starter generator (HSG) when a temperature of the driving motor reaches a predetermined level or greater due to a frequent driving of the driving motor while driving the hybrid vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9130424
    Abstract: A rotor of an interior permanent magnet motor includes a rotor core configured to form a body of the rotor. An upper permanent magnet group is configured to be inserted into the rotor core to form a magnetic pole. A lower permanent magnet group is configured to be inserted into the rotor core below the upper permanent magnet group to form a two-layered structure with the upper permanent magnet group. Each of the upper and lower permanent magnet groups may include two V-shaped permanent magnets. A polar arc angle formed by the two permanent magnets of the upper permanent magnet group may be different from a polar arc angle formed by the permanent magnets of the lower permanent magnet group.
