Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a multi-inverter electric motor controller, which solves the technical problem that the existing inverter with silicon-based devices cannot accurately modulate high-frequency currents. The multi-inverter electric motor controller comprises a primary inverter and one or more secondary inverters, where the primary inverter and the secondary inverters connect in parallel to a same electrical motor, the primary inverter employs silicon-material power electronic devices, the secondary inverters employ wide-bandgap semiconductor power electronic devices, and the switching frequency of the primary inverter is less than the switching frequencies of the secondary inverters. According to the present disclosure, the existing inverter with silicon-based devices and the inverters with wide-bandgap semiconductor devices are connected in parallel, and can complete the fine control of the harmonic waves of high-frequency currents.

The stator and the rotor are oppositely arranged and are both provided with an annular iron core, a coil winding (121, 131) is arranged on the side, facing the rotor, of the iron core (120, 130) of the stator, a squirrel-cage conductor (123) or a plurality of permanent magnets (133) are arranged on the side, facing the stator, of the iron core (122, 132) of the rotor, and the rotor and the stator are spaced by a certain distance to form an air gap plane. In a hybrid power system installed with the integrated starter generator, a clutch (111) is arranged in an inner ring of the integrated starter generator in a nested manner. By arranging the clutch in the ISG, the axial length of the clutch is completely or partially covered by the axial length of the ISG, and thus the system space is reduced.
