Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the monitoring of drive states, in particular of non-driven drive states, of electric motors.
  • bridge inverters For supplying electric motors, in particular multi-phase synchronous motors, with electrical energy, bridge inverters are usually used, each having, for example, three upper and three lower half bridges.
  • the half bridges are supplied on the input side with electrical energy from an energy store, for example a battery, with a positive voltage connection and a negative voltage connection or ground.
  • the half bridges may, for example, comprise semiconductor switches, the upper half bridges being provided for positive voltages and the lower half bridges for negative voltages or for ground, respectively.
  • the half-bridges of the bridge inverter are suitably controlled to provide for generating a target torque D n as required electric power to the electric motor.
  • the target torque D n as an example, electronically permuted synchronous motor of an electric drive of an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle is usually Ü set about the phase currents of the coils of the synchronous motor.
  • the adjustment of these currents is effected by a pulsed application of a high voltage, for example a battery voltage, to the coils via the half bridges, for example, mentioned above.
  • a high voltage for example a battery voltage
  • the reliable detection of a current state of the electric motor is of crucial importance for the safety to detect an unwanted or faulty drive.
  • the actual state of the electric motor for example, with an expected state of the electric motor, which can be determined for example on the basis of a characteristic, are compared, which can be detected in a mismatch on an error.
  • the reliable determination of the actual torque of the electric motor is also a necessary part of the requirements of the functional safety of the electric drives.
  • it is possible to deduce the torque for example based on the electrical power, which can be determined from a measurement of the battery current and voltage as well as the rotational speed.
  • this method becomes increasingly inaccurate because less and less power is needed to set a particular torque, and thus a given vehicle acceleration. This leads to an uncertainty, since, in particular at low torques, it is possible to detect, for example, a power determined on the basis of a current measurement in which it can no longer be decided unequivocally whether a torque is applied or not.
  • the invention is based on the recognition that a drive state of an electric motor can be efficiently monitored, in particular in the low speed range, if in addition to the states of the half bridges, which are used in a bridge inverter, and control signals are evaluated, which are used to drive the half-bridges.
  • the control signals may be, for example, logic signals used to control the switches the half bridges are used. However, the control signals may be voltage signals with which the half-bridges are driven. If, for example, the state of the respective half-bridge does not coincide with the state of the half-bridge, which is connected with the detected control signal, then an error can be detected.
  • the invention relates to a method for monitoring a drive state, in particular a non-driven drive state, of an electric motor which is supplied with energy by means of a bridge inverter with at least one half-bridge.
  • the method includes detecting a state of the at least one half-bridge, detecting a property of a control signal to drive the at least one half-bridge, and monitoring the drive state based on the detected state of the at least one half-bridge and the detected characteristic of the control signal.
  • the property of the control signal is a lack of the control signal or a presence of the control signal or an edge of the control signal, in particular a rising or falling edge, or a pulse or a pulse duration or a pulse time.
  • a detection flexibility is achieved in an advantageous manner.
  • to monitor the drive state it is checked whether the detected state of the at least one half-bridge and the detected characteristic of the control signal correspond to one another.
  • it can be checked to monitor the drive state, whether the detected state of the at least one half-bridge and the property of the control signal, in particular a lack or presence of the control signal, the same drive state can be assigned.
  • a faulty drive state can be detected if the detected state of the at least one half-bridge and the property of the control signal can not be assigned to the same drive state.
  • a simple monitoring of the drive state can be realized in an advantageous manner.
  • the step of detecting the state it is detected whether the at least one half-bridge is open or closed.
  • the drive state comprises a freewheel or a short-circuit torque or a rotational speed or a drive torque or a brake torque or an undefined drive state.
  • the drive state is monitored on the basis of a table, for example a look-up table, in each of which a drive state is assigned a property of the control signal and / or a state of the at least one half-bridge.
  • a table for example a look-up table, in each of which a drive state is assigned a property of the control signal and / or a state of the at least one half-bridge.

  • the at least one half-bridge and a missing control signal are detected to a short-circuit torque of the electric motor.
  • the inverter comprises a further half bridge, which is associated with the at least one half bridge, wherein the at least one half bridge is an upper or a lower half bridge and wherein the further half bridge is a lower or an upper half bridge.
  • the method includes detecting a state of the upper half-bridge and a state of the lower half-bridge, detecting a property of a control signal for driving the upper half-bridge, and a property of a control signal for driving the lower half-bridge, and monitoring the driving state based on the detected one States of the upper and lower half bridge and the detected characteristics of the control signals for driving the upper and the lower half bridge. In this way, the monitoring can be carried out very safely.
  • a specific drive state of the electric motor is associated with missing control signals and / or a specific combination of the states of the upper and lower half bridges.
  • a drive state of the electric motor is detected as defective if a control signal for driving the upper half-bridge detected and a control signal for driving the lower half-bridge due to its absence is not detected, or if a control signal for driving the upper half-bridge is not detected due to its absence and a control signal for driving the lower half-bridge is detected.
