Patents by Inventor Yosuke Fukunaga

Yosuke Fukunaga has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9252689
    Abstract: A motor control device includes a switching element that controls a motor, a current control part that outputs a PWM signal for driving the switching element, and a setting part that sets a carrier frequency of the PWM signal. Further, a motor control part includes a torque ripple compensation part that sets a torque ripple compensation value based on a motor torque command value, the carrier frequency, and a rotation state of the motor. The current control part outputs the PWM signal based on the motor torque command value and the torque ripple compensation value.

  • Patent number: 9209722
    Abstract: An inverter control device includes an inverter; a command value calculator; a phase compensator; an inverter controller; a d-q axes non-interference voltage command value calculator for calculating a d-q axes non-interference voltage command value to cancel out interference voltages and for outputting the d-q axes non-interference voltage command value to the command value calculator; and a reverse phase. The phase compensator calculates the amount of phase lead based on the rotation speed and a phase compensation time set in order to obtain a predetermined phase margin, and compensates for a phase based on characteristics inherent in the motor, by the amount of phase lead. The reverse phase compensator compensates for a phase of the d-q axes non-interference voltage command value by the same amount of compensation as the amount of phase lead in the opposite direction to the phase compensated for by the phase compensator.
