Abstract
Abstract Method by a drive system for a DC-motor comprising an inverter and a multiple phase synchronous machine with a permanent magnet rotor and provided with a rotor position detecting means for detecting in order to generate a rotation dependent logic position signal or signals. Digital technique is used to displace the commutation points individually to an intended angle referred to said rotation dependent logic position signal or signals (POS 1,POS 2, POS 3). In a first step said position signal is supplied to a pulse detector (101) which creates a pulse train (T₀ - T₅) corresponding to the commutation reference points of time. In a second step every pulse in said pulse train gives a counting of a number of reference clock pulses (N₁,N₂,..N₆) in a counter (108) and in a third step corresponding binary numbers are stored in a register to be transmitted to a multiplier (111) in which multiplication takes place with a digital constant (k₁) from a constant memory (110).

130 words
Method according to claim 1, characterized therein , that a modification of a reference commutation time formed as the difference between two adjacent commutation points of time (eg. T₄ - T₃ ) corresponding to a certain number of reference clock pulses (N₁ pulses) occurs during the subsequent commutation interval (T₅ - T₄ = dT₅) whereby the result N₁′ of the multiplication in said multiplier (111) is stored in a register (112) the contents of which at the start of the interval (T₅), which follows that at which said multiplication occurs, is counted down with the clock frequency from the clock generator (100) in the counter (113) so that at the value zero of the counter (113) is obtained a pulse corresponding to the new commutation point of time (T₀′) .
Claim 3

105 words
Method according to claim 1 or 2, characterized therein , that an optimization function is used, which is based on the rotation dependent logical signals (POS 1, POS 2; POS 3) from the Back-EMF detector (5) by means of which the commutation points each are displaced individually such, that at said optimization function maximum driving shaft output power is detected to eliminate defects caused by unsymmetries in the motor iron or the windings as well as unsymmetries of the rotor magnet and by means of said function optimize motor performance with respect to e.g. efficiency at present velocity and load, maximum acceleration and motor vibrations.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
52 words
Method according to claim 1 - 3, characterized therein , that at least one phase output (R,S,T) of the inverter is disconnected during a time period (δT) at a preselected rotation angle to make possible detection of the voltages which are generated in the stator windings (31,32,33) by rotation of the rotor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
108 words
Method according to claim 1 - 4, characterized therein , that rotation start for said rotor is created by a short first current pulse in a stator winding, which current pulse gives an arbitrary magnetic field whereby if no rotation is detected a second current pulse is supplied which generates a magnetic field the direction of which does not coincide with the first and if rotation thereby is detected, a third current pulse is supplied which maintains the rotation direction if it is the intended or shifts said direction so that further detected rotation signals directly or indirectly controls the drive system to reach the intended rotation speed.
