[0023] It should be noted that "at least one" in the embodiments of the present application means one or more, and "multiple" means two or more than two. "And / or" describes the association relationship of the associated objects, which means that there can be three kinds of relationships, for example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist together, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like (if any) in the specification and claims of the present application and the drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0024] In addition, it should be noted that the method disclosed in the embodiments of the present application or the method shown in the flowchart includes one or more steps for implementing the method, and the execution order of the multiple steps can be interchanged with each other without departing from the scope of the claims, and some steps can also be deleted.

[0025] At present, most electric vehicles adopt a centralized driving mode, that is, a traditional internal combustion engine vehicle architecture is replaced by an electric motor, and the power of the electric motor is distributed to each wheel through a transmission system to drive the wheels. After replacing the electric motor, the mechanical devices, structures, spaces and weights of the traditional vehicle architecture are difficult to further optimize, so a distributed driving electric vehicle architecture appears, that is, a driving motor is installed at each driving wheel to save the transmission device. The driving motor installed at the driving wheel is called a wheel hub motor.

[0026] In the related art, the wheel hub motor is composed of a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor, and the electric vehicle using the wheel hub motor has a speed difference between each wheel when the electric vehicle turns, so that the voltage required by each wheel hub motor is not the same, thereby causing a large voltage fluctuation of the power battery providing power, affecting the service life of each element in the whole system.

[0027] The embodiment of the present application provides a wheel hub motor control device, which is used for controlling a wheel hub motor comprising a plurality of three-phase motors, so that the working phases of the driving modules of each three-phase motor are different when converting three-phase alternating current, thereby reducing the voltage fluctuation of the power battery.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The wheel hub motor control device provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in the structure diagram, wherein the wheel hub motor control device 100 is used for controlling a first number of wheel hub motors 110, and the first number of wheel hub motors comprises a second number of three-phase motors 111.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present application, the wheel hub motor control device 100 comprises a control module 120 and a second number of driving modules 130. Each of the second number of driving modules 130 is connected to a corresponding three-phase motor 111, and the second number of driving modules 130 are also connected to a power battery 101 and the control module 120. That is, each three-phase motor is connected to one driving module 130, and the driving module 130 is connected to the power battery 101 and the control module 120.

[0030] Among the above wheel hub motors 110, there are a plurality of three-phase motors 111, for example, one wheel hub motor 110 can comprise four three-phase motors 111, or five three-phase motors 111, etc., which are not limited herein. A plurality of three-phase motors 111 can be simultaneously driven, so as to achieve the purpose of driving the wheel hub motor 110. The plurality of three-phase motors 111 arranged in one wheel hub motor 110 can improve the degree of freedom of control, the operating efficiency of the wheel hub motor 110, and facilitate the adjustment of the power output of the wheel hub motor 110.

[0031] The three-phase motor 111 can be a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor, or can also be a three-phase asynchronous motor, etc., which are not limited herein. Each three-phase motor 111 is connected to one driving module 130, and is driven by receiving three-phase alternating current from the driving module 130 connected thereto. That is, the number of driving modules 130 in the wheel hub motor control device 100 is equal to the number of three-phase motors 111 controlled, and each three-phase motor 111 is controlled by the driving module 130.

[0032] The driving module 130 is configured to receive a driving instruction, convert direct current of the power battery 101 into three-phase alternating current according to the driving instruction, and transmit the three-phase alternating current to the three-phase motor 111 connected thereto.

[0033] In the embodiment, the driving module 130 can receive direct current of the power battery 101, and convert the direct current into three-phase alternating current after receiving the driving instruction transmitted by the control module 120. The conversion process can be realized by an inverter, and the driving instruction can also control the working phase of the inverter in the driving module 130 for converting three-phase alternating current. For example, the driving module 130 includes an inverter, which converts direct current into three-phase alternating current, and the driving instruction can also control the working phase of the switch tube in the inverter, i.e., the working phase of converting three-phase alternating current.

[0034] The control module 120 is configured to output the driving instruction of each driving module 130, wherein the driving instruction is used to control the working phase of the driving module 130 when converting three-phase alternating current. The working phase of each driving module 130 is different.

[0035] In the embodiment, the driving instruction output by the control module 120 to each driving module 130 is different, and the working phase of each driving module 130 when converting direct current into three-phase alternating current is different through different driving instructions. For example, when each driving module 130 converts direct current into three-phase alternating current through an inverter, the inverter is composed of a switch tube, and the driving instruction transmitted by the control module 120 can be a square wave signal. To make the working phase of each inverter when converting current different, the phase of the square wave signal transmitted to each inverter is different.

[0036] In the embodiment, each three-phase motor in the plurality of hub motors is equipped with a driving module, and the working phase of each driving module is different when converting direct current into three-phase alternating current to drive each three-phase motor through each driving module, so as to avoid superimposing the same-phase transient voltage to generate a larger voltage fluctuation, i.e., to reduce the voltage fluctuation of the power battery, thereby improving the service life of each element in the system.

[0037] In the embodiment, the hub motor control device 100 further includes a second number of direct-current support modules, each of which is connected to the power battery 101 and one of the driving modules 130, and is configured to stabilize the voltage of the direct current of the power battery 101.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2A control module structure diagram provided by an embodiment of the present application is provided, and specifically, the control module 200 includes:

[0039] The phase-shifting angle acquisition unit 210 is configured to obtain a phase-shifting angle according to the second quantity.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, the phase-shifting angle acquisition unit 210 is arranged in the control module 200, which can obtain the second quantity of the three-phase motor that can normally work or the second quantity of the driving module through current detection or voltage detection, and then obtain the phase-shifting angle according to the second quantity. Specifically, the phase-shifting angle can be calculated by dividing 360 degrees by the second quantity.

[0041] The working phase acquisition unit 220 is configured to obtain the working phase of each driving module according to the phase-shifting angle.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, after the phase-shifting angle is calculated, the working phase of each driving module can be calculated by the working phase acquisition unit 220. For example, in the use scenario of four three-phase motors, if the calculated phase-shifting angle is 90 degrees, the working phase of each driving module can be 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees and 270 degrees, respectively.

[0043] The driving instruction output unit 230 is configured to output the driving instruction of each driving module according to the working phase.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present application, since each driving module works at different working phases and the working phases of different driving modules are smoothly transitioned according to the phase-shifting angle, the voltage fluctuation of the power battery when driving the wheel hub motor can be further reduced.
