Abstract

Abstract A system for controlling the speed of a DC motor by means of a field control in which a rectifier in the form of a thyristor is connected to the armature of the motor for supplying a current in only one direction and is controlled to constitute a constant current control means. An integrator having a saturation characterisitc is provided for integrating the difference between a reference speed and an actually detected speed of the motor. The output of the integrator is added to the reference speed and the result of addition is compared with the actually detected speed so as to apply a field current instruction signal to a field current control means provided with a current negative feedback means.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 154 words
A DC motor control system comprising a DC motor, a first power converter means for supplying current in only one direction to the armature of said DC motor, means including said first power converter for controlling the armature current, a second power converter means for supplying current to the field winding of said DC motor, means for generating and applying applying a reference speed instruction signal, detecting means for generating a speed responsive signal, means for integrating the difference between the reference speed instruction signal and the actually detected speed responsive signal with a saturation characteristic, means for adding the output of said integrating means to the reference speed instruction signal, summing means for controlling said second power converter depending on the difference between the output of said adding means and the actually detected speed responsive signal, and means for detecting the field current to apply it as negative feedback to said summing means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 154 words
A DC motor control system comprising a DC motor, a first power converter means for supplying current in only one direction to the armature of said DC motor, means including said first power converter for controlling the armature current, a second power converter means for supplying current to the field winding of said DC motor, means for generating and applying applying a reference speed instruction signal, detecting means for generating a speed responsive signal, means for integrating the difference between the reference speed instruction signal and the actually detected speed responsive signal with a saturation characteristic, means for adding the output of said integrating means to the reference speed instruction signal, summing means for controlling said second power converter depending on the difference between the output of said adding means and the actually detected speed responsive signal, and means for detecting the field current to apply it as negative feedback to said summing means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
A DC motor control system as claimed in claim 1, further comprising means for increasing the armature current during the period of time in which the reference speed is varying.
