Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a motor control system and a motor control device. [Background technology]

[0002] In the field of motor control, there is a demand for enhanced safety functions. In relation to this situation, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a safety device including a control board for controlling a motor (electric motor) and a safety function board. By linking the safety function board and the control board, when a safety-related signal is received from an external device, multiple safety functions can be realized in response to the signal, such as stopping the motor by safe torque off (STO) conforming to safety standards such as IEC 61800-5-2, and stopping the motor after controlling the deceleration of the motor's rotational speed (SS1: Safe Stop 1).

[0004] Based on the above suggestions, it is conceivable that, for example, a combination of a motor control device and an external device connected thereto (hereinafter referred to as a "safety function device") can execute other safety functions in addition to STO and SS1, while also making it possible for the motor control device alone to execute STO and SS1.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Hereinafter, a motor control system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing, the same or equivalent parts are designated by the same reference numerals.

[0014] (Embodiment) A motor control system 1 according to an embodiment will be described with reference to Figure 1. In the embodiment, the motor control system 1 is a motor control system that controls a motor 3. The motor control system 1 includes a safety function device 10 and a motor control device 20. The motor control system 1 realizes a safety function by the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 working together. The motor control system 1 is an example of a motor control system according to the present disclosure.

[0015] Below, a brief description will be given of the safety function device 10, the motor control device 20, and the motor 3. The detailed configurations of the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 will be described later.

[0016] The motor control device 20 is a motor control device that controls the motor 3 based on signals from a programmable logic controller (not shown) or the like. When the motor control device 20 is not connected to the safety function device 10, it has a safety function that stops the motor 3 using STO. When the motor control device 20 is connected to the safety function device 10 as shown in FIG. 1, the motor control device 20 can implement multiple safety functions based on safety standards, such as STO, SS1, SS2 (Safe Stop 2), SOS (Safe Operating Stop), and SLS (Safety Limited Speed), in addition to STO, by interlocking with the safety function device 10. The motor control device 20 is an example of a motor control device according to the present disclosure.

[0017] 1, the safety function device 10 works in conjunction with the motor control device 20 to realize the above-mentioned multiple safety functions. The safety function device 10 is an example of a safety function device according to the present disclosure.

[0018] The motor 3 is a motor that is driven and controlled by a motor control device 20, which is a motor control device. The motor 3 may be operated by receiving three-phase AC power from the motor control device 20, for example, or may be a stepping motor. The motor 3 also includes an encoder 31 required for the motor control device 20 to perform feedback control. The encoder 31 outputs an encoder signal SE to the motor control device 20 that indicates the state of the motor 3, such as the rotational speed and position (rotation angle) of the rotor of the motor 3. The motor control device 20 drives and controls the motor 3 by appropriately changing the voltage applied to the motor 3 and the current ID supplied to the motor 3, based on the encoder signal SE and a current signal SI that indicates the current ID supplied to the motor 3. The motor 3 is an example of a motor according to the present disclosure.

[0019] Based on the current signal SI and the encoder signal SE, the motor control device 20 generates a control signal SP for executing deceleration control, etc. of the motor 3. The motor control device 20 can execute deceleration control, etc. of the motor 3 by controlling the motor 3 based on the generated control signal SP.

[0020] Next, we will explain the configuration of safety function device 10. Safety function device 10 includes a receiving circuit 11, an auxiliary control unit 12, and a receiving circuit 13. Furthermore, auxiliary control unit 12 includes a safety function module 121 for realizing the safety function.

[0021] The receiving circuit 11 receives a first safety request signal SR1 from switches and sensors, such as an emergency stop switch, a light curtain, or a safety door lock. The first safety request signal SR1 is a signal indicating whether to execute STO or SS1. When the switches and sensors detect a situation in which the motor 3 should be stopped, such as an abnormality occurring at a production site where the motor 3 is used, they turn on the first safety request signal SR1 and transmit it to the safety function device 10. When the first safety request signal SR1 is on, it indicates that the motor 3 should be stopped by executing STO or SS1. For example, the first safety request signal SR1 indicates that it is on when it is a low signal, and indicates that it is off when it is a high signal. Furthermore, when the receiving circuit 11 is not connected to the switches and sensors, the first safety request signal SR1 becomes a high signal due to a pull-up circuit (not shown). The receiving circuit 11 is an example of a first receiving means according to the present disclosure.

[0022] 1 shows the transmission and reception of signals between the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 as if the respective components are directly connected to each other, but in reality, the signals are transmitted and received via a transmitting circuit or a receiving circuit (not shown). These transmitting circuit and receiving circuit (not shown) are examples of the first transmitting means and the first receiving means according to the present disclosure, respectively.

[0023] The receiving circuit 13 receives a third safety request signal SR3 from switches and sensors such as an emergency stop switch, light curtain, and safety door lock. The third safety request signal is a signal that indicates whether or not to execute a safety function based on safety standards, such as SS2, SOS, or SLS, which cannot be executed by the motor control device 20 alone. As will be described later, when the third safety request signal is on, the auxiliary control unit 12 and the motor control device 20 cooperate to execute safety functions such as SS2, SOS, and SLS. The criteria for turning on the first safety request signal SR1 and the criteria for turning on the third safety request signal SR3 are generally different.

[0024] For example, when the safety function device 10 is connected to the motor control device 20 via a connector or the like (not shown), the auxiliary control unit 12 continuously transmits a connection signal SC that is set to a Low signal to a processor 232 (described later) of the motor control device 20. This causes the processor 232 to recognize that the safety function device 10 is connected to the motor control device 20. Furthermore, when the first safety request signal SR1 received by the receiving circuit 11 is on, the auxiliary control unit 12 generates a signal for the safety function module 121 to recognize the type of safety function that is scheduled to be executed in response to the signal SR1 being on, i.e., STO or SS1, and transmits the signal to the motor control device 20.

[0025] Furthermore, the auxiliary control unit 12 transmits a signal SQ indicating the type (on or off) of the first safety request signal SR1 received by the receiving circuit 11 to the motor control device 20. The signal SQ becomes a low signal if the first safety request signal SR1 is on, and becomes a high signal if the first safety request signal SR1 is off.

[0026] Here, the safety function module 121 immediately transmits a signal SQ to the motor control device 20 when the user has selected to execute STO when the first safety request signal SR1 is on.

[0027] On the other hand, when the user selects to execute SS1 when first safety request signal SR1 is on, safety function module 121 does not immediately send signal SQ to motor control device 20, but sends it after a predetermined time has elapsed. The predetermined time is, for example, the time required for the speed of motor 3 to be sufficiently reduced by deceleration control of motor 3 by motor control device 20, the details of which will be described later.

[0028] Furthermore, auxiliary control unit 12 continuously transmits selection signal SA, which is a Low signal, to selection circuit 22 (described later) of motor control device 20. Furthermore, when third safety request signal SR3 received by receiving circuit 13 is ON, auxiliary control unit 12 generates a signal to cause motor control device 20 to recognize the type of safety function scheduled to be executed in accordance with signal SR3 being ON, i.e., the execution of SS2, SOS, SLS, etc., and transmits the signal to motor control device 20.

[0029] Next, we will explain the configuration of motor control device 20. Motor control device 20 includes a receiving circuit 21, a selecting circuit 22, a control unit 23, and a current sensor 24. Furthermore, control unit 23 includes a blocking circuit 231, a processor 232, and a drive circuit 233.

[0030] The receiving circuit 21 receives a second safety request signal SR2 from switches and sensors, such as an emergency stop switch, a light curtain, or a safety door lock. The second safety request signal SR2 has the same content as the first safety request signal SR1, but the signal transmission path is different. As with the receiving circuit 11 of the safety function device 10, when the switches and sensors detect a situation in which the motor 3 should be stopped, such as an abnormality occurring at a production site where the motor 3 is used, they turn on the second safety request signal SR2 and transmit it to the motor control device 20. When the second safety request signal SR2 is on, it indicates that an STO should be performed, i.e., that the motor 3 should be stopped. As with the first safety request signal SR1, the second safety request signal SR2 is on when it is a low signal, and off when it is a high signal. When the receiving circuit 21 is not connected to the switches and sensors, the second safety request signal SR2 becomes a high signal due to a pull-up circuit (not shown). The receiving circuit 21 is an example of a second receiving means according to the present disclosure.

[0031] As in the case of the safety function device 10, the transmission and reception of signals between the motor control device 20 and the safety function device 10 is depicted in Fig. 1 as if the respective components are directly connected to each other, but in reality, the signals are transmitted and received via a transmitting circuit or a receiving circuit (not shown). These transmitting circuits and receiving circuits (not shown) are examples of second transmitting means and second receiving means according to the present disclosure, respectively.

[0032] When the input selection signal SA is a low signal, that is, when the selection circuit 22 receives a low selection signal SA from the safety function device 10, the selection circuit 22 selects the signal SQ received from the safety function device 10 (that is, the signal SQ indicates the same content as the type (on or off) of the first safety request signal SR1). When the selection signal SA is a high signal, that is, when the safety function device 10 is not connected to the motor control device 20, the selection circuit 22 selects the second safety request signal SR2 received by the receiving circuit 21. However, when the safety function device 10 is not connected to the motor control device 20, the selection signal SA input to the selection circuit 22 becomes a high signal due to a pull-up circuit (not shown). The selection circuit 22 is, for example, a digital circuit, such as a multiplexer. The selection circuit 22 outputs a cutoff enable / disable signal SB indicating the type (on or off) of the selected signal SQ (first safety request signal SR1) or the second safety request signal SR2 to the cutoff circuit 231. When the selection signal SA is a Low signal, the selection circuit 22 does not select the second safety request signal SR2 received by the reception circuit 21. Therefore, it can be said that when the selection signal SA is a Low signal, the selection circuit 22 disables the reception circuit 21. The selection circuit 22 is an example of a selection means according to the present disclosure.

[0033] The drive circuit 233 drives and controls the motor 3 by supplying power to the motor 3 based on a control signal SP received from a processor 232 (described later) via a cutoff circuit 231. More specifically, the drive circuit 233 drives and controls the motor 3 by adjusting the voltage applied to the motor 3 and the current supplied to the motor 3 based on the control signal SP received from the cutoff circuit 231. When the cutoff circuit 231 cuts off the control signal SP, as described later, the power supply to the motor 3 is stopped. This enables STO to be realized.

[0034] The current sensor 24 detects the drive current ID supplied to the motor 3 by the drive circuit 233 and outputs a current signal SI indicating the detected drive current ID to the processor 232. The current sensor 24 is, for example, a current sensor using a Hall element provided near the current path between the drive circuit 233 and the motor 3. Note that although the current path is shown as a single line in Fig. 1, when the motor 3 is driven by three-phase AC power or is a stepping motor, there will actually be multiple current paths, and the corresponding current sensor 24 will also be composed of multiple elements.

[0035] The processor 232 supervises the drive control of the motor 3. The processor 232 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) that executes a program stored in a memory (not shown). Alternatively, the processor 232 may be configured by an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit).

[0036] The processor 232 generates a control signal SP for operating the motor 3 based on a signal from a programmable logic controller or the like (not shown), the current signal SI output by the current sensor 24, and the encoder signal SE output by the encoder 31, and outputs the generated control signal to the interruption circuit 231. When the safety function device 10 is connected to the motor control device 20, the processor 232 also receives a signal indicating the type of safety function to be executed from the auxiliary control unit 12 in accordance with the ON state of the first safety request signal SR1 or the third safety request signal SR3. The processor 232 recognizes the safety function to be executed in accordance with the received signal indicating the type of safety function.

[0037] When the signal SQ (first safety request signal) or the second safety request signal SR2 selected by the selection circuit 22 is OFF, i.e., when the shutoff possibility signal SB input from the selection circuit 22 indicates that the signal SQ or the second safety request signal SR2 is OFF, the shutoff circuit 231 outputs the control signal SP received from the processor 232 to the drive circuit 233 without shutting it off. On the other hand, when the signal SQ (first safety request signal SR1) or the second safety request signal SR2 selected by the selection circuit 22 is ON, i.e., when the shutoff possibility signal SB input from the selection circuit 22 indicates that the signal SQ or the second safety request signal SR2 is ON, the shutoff circuit 231 shuts off the control signal SP received from the processor 232. An example of such a shutoff circuit 231 is, but is not limited to, a photocoupler. This stops the power supply from the drive circuit 233 to the motor 3, allowing the motor 3 to be stopped by STO. Furthermore, when the safety function device 10 is connected to the motor control device 20 (the selection circuit 22 selects the signal SQ) and the execution of SS1 is selected by the user, if the first safety request signal SR1 is on, a cutoff possibility signal SB indicating that the signal SQ is on is output to the selection circuit 22 after a predetermined time has elapsed, and the control signal SP is cut off. This makes it possible to execute SS1, which is a safety function that stops the motor 3 after executing deceleration control. The cutoff circuit 231 is an example of a cutoff means according to the present disclosure.

[0038] Motor control device 20 may also be configured as shown in Figure 2. As will be explained below, by configuring motor control device 20 as shown in Figure 2, motor control device 20 can execute SS1 independently, unlike the configuration as shown in Figure 1.

[0039] 2, the motor control device 20 further includes a delay circuit 25. The receiving circuit 21 outputs the received second safety request signal SR2 to the delay circuit 25 and the processor 232. The delay circuit 25 delays the second safety request signal SR2 output by the receiving circuit 21 by a predetermined time and outputs the signal to the selection circuit 22. The processor 232 starts deceleration control of the motor 3 when the second safety request signal SR2 output by the receiving circuit 21 is on.

[0040] By configuring the motor control device 20 in this manner, when the motor control device 20 and the safety function device 10 are not connected and the second safety request signal SR2 output by the receiving circuit 21 is on, the selection circuit 22 inputs the second safety request signal SR2 a predetermined time after the start of deceleration control of the motor 3, and outputs a cutoff possibility signal SB indicating that the second safety request signal SR2 is on to the cutoff circuit 231. As a result, the cutoff circuit 231 cuts off the control signal SP to the drive circuit 233 a predetermined time after the start of deceleration control of the motor 3. In other words, the motor control device 20 can execute SS1 independently.

[0041] Next, it will be explained how configuring the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 as described above makes it possible to suppress an increase in the failure rate when a safety function is realized by combining the motor control device and the safety function device.

[0042] Generally, the failure rate of an entire system consisting of two devices is the sum of the failure rates of the components in each device.

[0043] On the other hand, in the motor control system 1, when the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 are connected, the selection circuit 22 of the motor control device 20 selects the signal SQ received from the safety function device 10 and outputs a cutoff possibility signal SB indicating the type of the signal SQ (i.e., the first safety request signal SR1) to the cutoff circuit 231.

[0044] Therefore, in the motor control system 1, the entire system can continue to operate even if the receiving circuit 21 fails, so the failure rate of the receiving circuit 21 does not need to be considered as a failure rate of the entire system. That is, when the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 configured as shown in FIG. 1 are connected, the receiving circuit 21 is isolated from the circuits that realize the safety functions STO or SS1 and from circuits (safety-related parts) that affect those circuits. Therefore, the motor control system 1 can suppress an increase in the failure rate when the safety function is realized by combining the motor control device and the safety function device. Similarly, when the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 configured as shown in FIG. 2 are connected, the receiving circuit 21 and the delay circuit 25 are isolated from the safety-related parts, and an increase in the failure rate when the safety function is realized can be suppressed.

[0045] (Variation) To achieve a higher safety level, the receiving circuit 11 and the safety function module 121 of the safety function device 10 may be multiplexed as shown in Figure 3. Multiplexing may be required depending on the target safety level, and this configuration makes it possible to achieve that safety level. Note that Figure 3 omits illustration of signals communicated between the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20, but the communication lines, transmitting / receiving circuits, etc. for these signals may or may not be multiplexed depending on the target safety level. However, if the communication lines, transmitting / receiving circuits, etc. are multiplexed, the motor control device 20 must also be compatible with multiplexing.

[0046] In the embodiment, it is conceivable that the safety function device 10 is interlocked with a plurality of types of motor control devices 20. In this case, it is conceivable that the safety function device 10 is provided with a function for identifying the model of the motor control device 20, and is configured to transmit a selection signal SA that is a Low signal only when the model of the motor control device 20 identified by the safety function device 10 is an interlockable motor control device 20.

[0047] 4, when the safety function device 10 is connected, the processor 232 of the motor control device 20 receives the connection signal SC output by the auxiliary control unit 12 and transmits an identification signal SD identifying the model of the motor control device 20 itself to the safety function device 10. The auxiliary control unit 12 of the safety function device 10 further includes a memory unit 122. The memory unit 122 stores interlocking model information indicating the model of the motor control device 20 that can be interlocked with the safety function device 10. The auxiliary control unit 121 transmits a selection signal SA that is set to a Low signal to the motor control device 20 only when the model indicated by the identification signal SD received from the motor control device 20 is included in the models indicated by the interlocking model information. Here, the selection signal SA is set to Low only when the model indicated by the identification signal SD is included in the models indicated by the interlocking model information (i.e., only when the model of the motor control device 20 is a model that can be interlocked with the safety function device 10). Therefore, the selection signal SA is a signal that indicates whether the safety function device 10 and the motor control device 20 can be interlocked. With this configuration, the selection circuit 22 can select the signal SQ only if the model of the motor control device 20 is an interlockable motor control device 20, so the receiving circuit 21 (and the delay circuit 25, if provided) can be separated (disabled) from the safety-related part. Therefore, even if a motor control device that is not interlockable with the safety function device 10 is mistakenly connected to the safety function device 10, it will not function normally, thereby preventing it from being used in an unauthorized manner. The memory unit 122 in this modified example is an example of a memory means according to the present disclosure. [Explanation of symbols]
