A motor driving device is disclosed. The motor driving device includes: a rectifier rectifying alternating current (AC) power into direct current (DC) power to output an input voltage; a first buck-boost converter including a plurality of switches for converting the input voltage and having a buck mode of stepping down the input voltage and a boost mode of stepping up the input voltage; an inverter converting a DC-link voltage transformed from the first buck-boost converter into an AC voltage and transferring the AC voltage to a motor; and a controller receiving motor information related to driving of the motor, comparing magnitudes of a desired DC-link voltage depending on the received motor information and the input voltage with each other, and performing a control to switch only any one of the plurality of switches so that the first buck-boost converter is operated in the buck mode or the boost mode.
Abstract:
A compensating current is outputted except during an interval where a leakage current is not pronounced, so that losses resulting from the passage of the compensating current are reduced. A diode bridge (11) has a pair of input ends to which an alternating current is inputted from an AC power supply (3), and a pair of output ends (111, 112) which output a direct current. A boost chopper circuit (12) is connected to the pair of output ends (111, 112), and sets up a DC voltage inputted thereto. The boost chopper circuit (12) functions as a power factor correction circuit. A smoothing capacitor (13) is connected to an output side of the boost chopper circuit (12), and smoothes the voltage across the smoothing capacitor (13). An inverter (14) receives the voltage across the smoothing capacitor (13) to apply AC power to a load (4). A leakage current reduction device (2) outputs a compensating current (Ic) which compensates for a leakage current (Ia) leaking from the load (4). The leakage current reduction device (2) outputs the compensating current (Ic) except near the zero crossing of the alternating current inputted from the AC power supply (3).

Abstract:
A control system to realize input power changing along with both loads and rotate speed by an inverter bridge dragging many sets of motors, is composed of a stator voltage regulating unit (1), a motor unit (2), a rotor speed control unit (3), an inverter bridge unit (4), a control drive unit (5) and a signal processing unit (6). By setting a power factor sensor, the phase voltage and phase current of the motor stator are acquired as a control signal to regulate the input power so as to make it change with loads. At the same time, by setting a voltage sensor and a current sensor, motor rotor phase voltage, rectifier output current, overvoltage protection current and chopper working current are acquired separately as a control signal to regulate the input power so as to make it change with the rotate speed, thus realizing input power changing along with both loads and rotate speed.
Abstract:
AC motor driving system and driving method thereof are provided. The driving system and method are capable of increasing power factor, adjusting waveform of the DC ripple voltage for increasing driving efficiency. The driving system is basically constructed by connecting three circuits. The first circuit is a three-phase full wave rectifying circuit and is used to transfer commercial electricity to a first DC voltage. Then, the second circuit is used to transfer the first DC voltage to a second DC voltage that ripples voltage thereof having a semi-sinusoidal waveform. The third circuit is an AC driving circuit, and receives the second AC voltage for driving the AC motor. Thereby, the driving efficiency can be increased. The capacitance used in the present disclosure has low capacitance value, thus the power factor can be increased, and usage time of the AC motor driving apparatus can also be increased.
