Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the physical configuration of the motor in the axial direction is small, but the physical configuration of the motor in the radial direction is large
In addition, in the case where it is necessary to utilize a cylindrical capacitor, for example, although the smoothing capacitor is a planar type, the physical configuration in the radial direction becomes further larger

[0121] Such as figure 1 As shown in , the drive device 1 according to the first embodiment includes a motor 30 , a power supply circuit 50 , and a control circuit 70 . The driving device 1 generates rotational torque on the steering wheel shaft 92 and assists the steering operation of the steering wheel 91 through the transmission device 93 fixed to the steering wheel shaft 92 , which is the rotational axis of the steering wheel 91 of the vehicle. More specifically, when the driver manipulates the steering wheel 91 , the steering torque generated on the column 92 due to the manipulation is detected by the torque sensor 94 . In addition, vehicle speed information is acquired through a controller area network (CAN) in order to assist the driver's steering operation through the steering wheel 91 . When such a mechanism is used, not only the steering can be assisted, but also the manipulation of the steering wheel 91 for keeping the lane on the highway, guiding to a parking space...

Abstract

Electronic circuits (50, 70), including semiconductor modules (501-506) and capacitors (701-706), are disposed in the axis direction of a motor (30). The semiconductor modules (501-506) are perpendicularly disposed in contact with a heat sink (601). The perpendicular lines of the surfaces of the semiconductor chips provided in the semiconductor modules (501-506) are perpendicular to the axis line of the motor (30). The capacitors (701-706) are disposed such that at least a part of the region wherein the capacitors (701-706) are disposed, said region being in the axis direction of the motor (30), overlaps the region wherein the semiconductor modules (501-506) and the heat sink (601) are disposed, said region being in the axis direction.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2009-149650 filed on June 24, 2009, Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-14393 filed on January 26, 2010, and Japanese Patent Application No. 2010 filed on May 21, 2010. 2010-117686, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a drive having an electric motor and an electronic control unit for controlling the drive of the electric motor. Background technique [0004] In recent years, an electric power steering (EPS) system that electrically generates torque has been used as a mechanism for assisting the operation of a steering wheel of a vehicle. In the EPS system, unlike the hydraulic system, the steering operation of the vehicle is assisted only when the driver performs the steering operation. Therefore, the EPS system provides many advantages such as low fuel consumption. [0005] As a m...
