[0002] Many devices include motors, e.g. Figure 1 As shown, the Stirling rotary refrigerator includes a motor 1, a cold end 2 and a hot end 3. The cold end 2 and the hot end 3 are connected. A piston 4 and a connecting rod 5 are respectively provided in the cold end 2 and the hot end 3. The connecting rod 5 is connected to the motor 1. After the motor 1 is powered on and rotated, the connecting rod 5 is driven to move the piston 4 back and forth. During the isothermal compression process, the gas in the cold end 2 and the hot end 3 is compressed and absorbs heat; during the isothermal expansion process, the gas expands and releases heat, so that the cold end 2 achieves the purpose of cooling.
[0003] However, reference Figure 1 As shown, when the motor 1 is powered off, the temperature of the cold end 2 is lower than the ambient temperature, the ambient temperature heats the cold end 2, the gas in the cold end 2 expands due to the heat and enters the hot end 3, the connecting rod 5 drives the motor 1 to reverse, the motor 1 reverses and the original cold end 2 becomes the hot end 3, the original hot end 3 becomes the cold end 2, the temperature of the original cold end 2 increases after becoming the hot end 3, and the refrigeration time is increased for the next refrigeration; in addition, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the motor 1 is reversed, the three terminals U, V, and W of the motor 1 generate reverse current I U ,I V ,I W , the reverse current flows to the voltage bus VBUS through the parasitic reverse parallel diode of the MOS tube in the upper bridge arm of the motor drive circuit, and generates a reverse electromotive force between the voltage bus VBUS and the ground terminal DGND. If the reverse electromotive force is too large, the circuit structure and mechanical structure of the Stirling rotary refrigerator may be damaged. Summary of the invention
