[0017] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0018] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment introduces an electric compressor position identification device, including a first housing 1, an electric compressor rotor 2, a shaft 3, a magnet 3.1, a second housing 4, a PCBA5, and an angle sensor 5.1. The shaft 3 is equipped with a magnet 3.1 and passes through the electric compressor rotor 2 and rotates with the electric compressor rotor 2. The angle sensor 5.1 is a chip, which is mounted on the PCBA5 using a patch process, and the PCBA5 is bolted to the second housing 4. There is a groove on the shaft 3, and the magnet 3.1 is embedded in the groove on the shaft 3. There is a sealing device between the first housing 1 and the second housing 4, and the first housing 1 and the second housing 4 are completely sealed even under a pressure of 20KPa. Any low magnetic permeability material such as the second housing 4 is within the protection scope of the present invention. The angle sensor 5.1 adopts a vertically integrated design, which means that the areas sensitive to GMR (giant magnetoresistance effect) are concentrated on the logic part of the device, and the resistance of these areas will change with the change of the direction of the applied magnetic field.

[0019] The angle sensor 5.1 internally contains four GMR elements connected in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. These elements are able to detect one of the two components of an applied magnetic field: X component, generates Vx signal (cosine wave); Y component, generates Vy signal (sine wave); This full-bridge configuration allows for the maximum GMR signal to be obtained while also effectively offsetting the effect of temperature changes on resistance. The radially magnetized magnet 3.1 used in the angle sensor 5.1 rotates above the GMR element, so that the output signals of the two bridges have a 90° phase difference, forming a sinusoidal waveform. Next, the output signals of the two bridges are sampled by an ADC (analog-to-digital converter) to convert the analog signals into digital signals. According to the following formula: ; To obtain the original value of the angle sensor, the original X and Y signals are processed by the trigonometric function ARCTAN2, and the original value of the angle sensor is substituted into the following formula: ; Convert the actual position angle value. Then the real 360° rotation angle of the sensor can be calculated. This method uses the phase difference between the X and Y signals to accurately calculate the azimuth of the magnet, and then accurately identify the angular position of the electric compressor rotor; in, is the original value of the angle sensor,N The number of bits of the actual angle value. b Indicates the actual angle value; Indicates the number of digits in the summation formula, Indicates the highest bit. Indicates the value of the highest bit of the actual angle value. Indicates the sum of the actual angle values. Indicates the angular position of the electric compressor rotor.

[0020] In summary, the electric compressor position identification device and method provided by the present invention has the advantage of accurately controlling the motor speed.

The principle block diagram is as follows Figure 2 As shown; The specific principles are as follows: 1. Angle position signal acquisition and coordinate transformation The built-in PMSM usually obtains the azimuth angle of the magnet through an angle sensor to accurately identify the angle position signal of the electric compressor rotor. This angle is called the mechanical angle. In order to accurately control the torque and flux, we need the electrical angle of the electric compressor rotor. (Mechanical angle multiplied by the number of pole pairs of the motor). This electrical angle is used to convert the three-phase stator current ( , , ) is transformed to the stator stationary coordinate system (α-β).

[0021] 1.1 Clarke transformation First, use Clarke transformation to transform the three-phase current ( , , ) is transformed to the stator stationary coordinate system (α-β): ; This transformation converts three-phase quantities into two-phase quantities, simplifying subsequent mathematical processing.

[0022] 1.2 Park Transform Next, the electrical angle of the electric compressor rotor Perform Park transformation to transform the current component ( , ) is transformed into the rotating coordinate system (dq): ; In the dq coordinate system, represents the magnetic flux component, Represents the torque component, so that the torque and flux can be controlled independently to achieve the purpose of decoupling.

[0023] 2. Current control (PI controller) In FOC, the d-axis current and q-axis current Will be controlled separately. Usually a PI controller is used to adjust and Error, generate the corresponding d-axis and q-axis voltage instructions and .

[0024] 3. Inverse Park transform (dq to α-β) Generated voltage command and It is necessary to transform from the dq rotating coordinate system back to the stationary α-β coordinate system. Use the inverse Park transform: .

[0025] 4. Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) Voltage command generated in α-β coordinate system and The input is sent to the space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) module. SVPWM generates the required three-phase voltage waveform on the stator by controlling the switching state of the inverter.

[0026] 5. Inverter circuit Under the switching action of the inverter, the output three-phase AC power is sent to the motor stator. Since SVPWM makes the direction and amplitude of the magnetic field generated on the motor stator close to the expected value, the motor can achieve the required torque and speed according to the set current vector.

[0027] 6. Motor torque and speed regulation Through the above process, the second housing can adjust the current to control the torque and then adjust the speed. In the speed control system, the outer loop is the speed loop and the inner loop is the current loop. This double closed-loop structure ensures the system's rapid response and precise torque control.
