Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In order to meet the requirements of the EMC standard for a power conversion device, a common mode filter may be provided in the power conversion device.

[0005] The main object of the present invention is to provide a new power conversion device and program including a common mode filter.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] A first invention includes a plurality of phase AC terminals, a DC terminal, An AC-DC conversion circuit having at least one of the following functions: a function to convert AC power input from the AC terminal into DC power and output it from the DC terminal, and a function to convert DC power input from the DC terminal into AC power and output it from the AC terminal. In a power converter equipped with, An electrical path is provided corresponding to each phase, connecting the AC-DC conversion circuit and the AC terminal, Common mode filters and, Equipped with, The aforementioned common mode filter is, A coil provided in the aforementioned electrical path for each phase, A specific coil connected in parallel to at least one of the aforementioned coils, The core around which each of the aforementioned coils and the specific coil is wound, It holds.

[0007] According to the first invention, when current flows through each electrical path, the current can be distributed between the coils connected in parallel with a specific coil and the specific coil itself. By connecting a specific coil in parallel to a target coil whose current is relatively larger than that of the other coils, the current flowing through the target coil can be reduced. As a result, the rated current of the target coil can be reduced. Thus, according to the first invention, a new power conversion device equipped with a common mode filter can be provided.

[0008] The first invention can be embodied, for example, as in the second invention described below. In the second invention, the AC terminals include a first AC terminal, a second AC terminal, and a third AC terminal. The DC terminals include a high-potential DC terminal and a low-potential DC terminal. The first AC terminal, the second AC terminal, and the third AC terminal are configured to be connectable to a three-phase AC power supply, and the first AC terminal and the third AC terminal are configured to be connectable to a single-phase AC power supply. The aforementioned AC-DC conversion circuit is A series connection of the first upper arm switch and the first lower arm switch, A series connection of the second upper arm switch and the second lower arm switch, A series connection of the third upper arm switch and the third lower arm switch, It has, As the aforementioned electrical path, A first path electrically connects the connection point of the first upper arm switch and the first lower arm switch to the first AC terminal, A second path electrically connects the connection point of the second upper arm switch and the second lower arm switch to the second AC terminal, A third path electrically connects the connection point of the third upper arm switch and the third lower arm switch to the third AC terminal, It is equipped with, The first inductor provided in the first path, The second inductor provided in the second path, A third inductor provided in the third path, A single-phase charging switch electrically connects the first AC terminal and the second AC terminal, The control unit and, Equipped with, The high-potential terminals of the first, second, and third upper arm switches are electrically connected to the high-potential DC terminals. The low-potential terminals of the first, second, and third lower arm switches are electrically connected to the low-potential DC terminals. When the control unit determines that the single-phase AC power supply is connected to the first AC terminal and the third AC terminal, with the single-phase charging switch turned ON, it performs switching control of the first upper arm switch, the first lower arm switch, the second upper arm switch, and the second lower arm switch in order to perform power conversion between the first AC terminal and the third AC terminal and the high-potential DC terminal and the low-potential DC terminal. The coil that constitutes the common mode filter is, A first coil provided in the first path on the side of the first AC terminal that is closer to the first inductor, A second coil provided on a second AC terminal side of the second inductor among the second paths; A third coil provided on a third AC terminal side of the third inductor among the third paths; are provided, The specific coil is connected in parallel to the third coil.

[0009] In the second invention, in a state where the single-phase charging switch is turned on, the control unit performs switching control of the first upper arm switch, the first lower arm switch, the second upper arm switch, and the second lower arm switch to perform power conversion between the first AC terminal and the third AC terminal and the high-potential side DC terminal and the low-potential side DC terminal. Since the single-phase charging switch is turned on, all of the first to third paths can be used as power transmission paths during power conversion using a single-phase AC power supply. Therefore, the transmitted power during power conversion can be increased.

[0010] In this case, the current flowing through the third path becomes larger than the currents flowing through the first and second paths. Therefore, in the second invention, a specific coil constituting a common mode filter is connected in parallel to a third coil provided in the third path. For this reason, the current flowing through the third coil can be reduced, and the rated current of the third coil can be reduced.

[0012] Multiple embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. In multiple embodiments, functionally and / or structurally corresponding and / or related parts may be given the same reference numeral, or reference numerals that differ by hundreds or more digits. For corresponding and / or related parts, refer to the descriptions of other embodiments.

[0013] <First Embodiment> Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the power conversion device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The power conversion device according to this embodiment is installed in a vehicle such as an electric vehicle, and specifically is an AC-DC converter that constitutes an on-board charger. An on-board charger is also called an onboard charger.

[0014] The power converter is equipped with AC terminals and DC terminals. The power converter has the function of converting AC power input via the AC terminals connected to an AC power source outside the vehicle into DC power and outputting it from the DC terminals. The DC power output from the DC terminals is supplied to the vehicle's battery. The power converter also has the function of converting DC power input via the DC terminals into AC power and outputting it from the AC terminals. The AC power output from the AC terminals is supplied to the external power grid via an external AC power source. The power converter can be connected to a three-phase AC power source or a single-phase AC power source.

[0015] As shown in Figure 1, the power converter 10 is equipped with a first AC terminal Tac1, a second AC terminal Tac2, and a third AC terminal Tac3 as AC terminals. The first to third AC terminals Tac1 to Tac3 can be connected to an external three-phase AC power supply 21, as shown in Figure 3. Of the first to third AC terminals Tac1 to Tac3, the first and third AC terminals Tac1 and Tac3 can be connected to an external single-phase AC power supply 22, as shown in Figure 4.

[0016] The power converter 10 is equipped with a high-potential DC terminal TdcH and a low-potential DC terminal TdcL as DC terminals. The high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL are connected to the input section of a DC-DC converter 24 that constitutes an on-board charger. The output section of the DC-DC converter 24 is connected to a rechargeable battery 20 mounted on the vehicle. The DC-DC converter 24 transforms the DC voltage input from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL and supplies the transformed DC voltage to the battery 20. The DC-DC converter 24 also transforms the DC voltage input from the battery 20 and supplies it to the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. The DC-DC converter 24 is, for example, an isolated DC-DC converter in which the input section and output section are electrically isolated, and is equipped with a transformer that connects the input section and the output section.

[0017] The power converter 10 includes, as three phase upper and lower arm switches, a series connection of a first upper arm switch S1H and a first lower arm switch S1L, a series connection of a second upper arm switch S2H and a second lower arm switch S2L, and a series connection of a third upper arm switch S3H and a third lower arm switch S3L. In this embodiment, each upper and lower arm switch S1H to S3L is an N-channel MOSFET having a body diode. Therefore, in each upper and lower arm switch S1H to S3L, the high-potential side terminal is the drain and the low-potential side terminal is the source. Of the first to third phases, for example, the first phase is the U phase, the second phase is the V phase, and the third phase is the W phase.

[0018] The power converter 10 includes a high-potential path 30H, which is an electrical path connecting the high-potential terminals of the first, second, and third upper arm switches S1H, S2H, and S3H to the high-potential DC terminal TdcH, and a low-potential path 30L, which is an electrical path connecting the low-potential terminals of the first, second, and third lower arm switches S1L, S2L, and S3L to the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. The high-potential path 30H and the low-potential path 30L are conductive members such as busbars.

[0019] The power converter 10 includes a DC-side capacitor 34 that connects the high-potential path 30H and the low-potential path 30L. The DC-side capacitor 34 functions as a smoothing capacitor and is, for example, an electrolytic capacitor.

[0020] The power converter 10 includes a first path 41, a second path 42, and a third path 43. The first path 41 is an electrical path connecting the low-potential terminal of the first upper arm switch S1H and the high-potential terminal of the first lower arm switch S1L to the first AC terminal Tac1. The second path 42 is an electrical path connecting the low-potential terminal of the second upper arm switch S2H and the high-potential terminal of the second lower arm switch S2L to the second AC terminal Tac2. The third path 43 is an electrical path connecting the low-potential terminal of the third upper arm switch S3H and the high-potential terminal of the third lower arm switch S3L to the third AC terminal Tac3.

[0021] The power converter 10 includes a first inductor 31 provided in the first path 41, a second inductor 32 provided in the second path 42, and a third inductor 33 provided in the third path 43. In this embodiment, each inductor 31 to 33 has the same specifications. Therefore, the inductance values ​​of each inductor 31 to 33 are the same. Also, the rated current (specifically, the temperature rise rated current) of each inductor 31 to 33 is the same.

[0022] The power converter 10 is equipped with a common mode filter 35. The common mode filter 35 comprises a first coil 36A, a second coil 36B, a third coil 36C, and a fourth coil 36D as a "specific coil". The first to third coils 36A to 36C are located on the side of the first to third AC terminals Tac1 to Tac3 of the first to third paths 41 to 43, closer to the first to third inductors 31 to 33. The fourth coil 36D is connected in parallel to the third coil 36C. The reason why the common mode filter 35 has coils for four phases, while the input side of the power converter 10 is three phase, is to reduce the rated current of the coils and to miniaturize the common mode filter 35. This point will be described in detail later.

[0023] As shown in Figure 2, the common mode filter 35 has a common core 37 around which each coil 36A to 36D is wound. The core 37 is annular (specifically, circular) and is made of, for example, ferrite. The coils 36A to 36D are arranged at equal intervals around the core 37 in the circumferential direction. In this embodiment, each coil 36A to 36D is set to the same rated current (specifically, temperature rise rated current). For example, by making the number of turns and wire diameter the same for each coil 36A to 36D, the rated current of each coil 36A to 36D can be set to the same value.

[0024] The power converter 10 is equipped with a single-phase charging switch 46. The single-phase charging switch 46 connects the portion of the first path 41 that is closer to the first AC terminal Tac1 than the first coil 36A, and the portion of the second path 42 that is closer to the second AC terminal Tac2 than the second coil 36B. When the single-phase charging switch 46 is on, it allows the flow of current in both directions, and when it is off, it prevents the flow of current in both directions. The single-phase charging switch 46 may also connect, for example, the first AC terminal Tac1 and the second AC terminal Tac2.

[0025] The power converter 10 is equipped with a DC-side voltage sensor 50 and an AC-side voltage sensor 51. The DC-side voltage sensor 50 detects the terminal voltage of the DC-side capacitor 34, and the AC-side voltage sensor 51 detects the voltage difference between the first AC terminal Tac1 and the ground of the power converter 10.

[0026] The power converter 10 is equipped with first to third current sensors 61 to 63. The first current sensor 61 detects the current flowing through the first inductor 31, the second current sensor 62 detects the current flowing through the second inductor 32, and the third current sensor 63 detects the current flowing through the third inductor 33. The detected values ​​from each of the sensors 50, 51, 61 to 63 are input to the control device 70, which is a control unit of the power converter 10.

[0027] The control device 70 is mainly composed of a microcontroller 71, which is equipped with a CPU. The functions provided by the microcontroller 71 can be provided by software recorded in a physical memory device and the computer that executes it, by software only, by hardware only, or by a combination thereof. For example, if the microcontroller 71 is provided by hardware electronic circuits, it can be provided by digital circuits including a large number of logic circuits, or by analog circuits. For example, the microcontroller 71 executes a program stored in a non-transitory tangible storage medium, which serves as its own storage unit. The program includes, for example, a program for the processing shown in Figures 5, 10, and 14 described later. When the program is executed, the method corresponding to the program is executed. The storage unit is, for example, non-volatile memory. The program stored in the storage unit can be updated via a communication network such as the Internet, for example, OTA (Over The Air).

[0028] The control device 70 performs either three-phase or single-phase charging control. The charging control will be explained below using the flowchart in Figure 4.

[0029] In step S10, it is determined whether or not an instruction for three-phase charging control has been given. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, if it is determined that a three-phase AC power supply 21 is connected to the first to third AC terminals Tac1 to Tac3, it is determined that an instruction for three-phase charging control has been given. In the three-phase AC power supply 21, the amplitude and frequency of the three-phase output voltages V1, V2, and V3 are the same, and the phases of the output voltages V1, V2, V3 and output currents are shifted by 120° in each phase.

[0030] If a positive result is obtained in step S10, three-phase charging control is performed in steps S11 and S12. Specifically, in step S11, the single-phase charging switch 46 is turned off.

[0031] In step S12, the first, second, and third upper arm switches S1H, S2H, S3H and the first, second, and third lower arm switches S1L, S2L, S3L are switched to convert the AC power input from the first AC terminal Tac1, the second AC terminal Tac2, and the third AC terminal Tac3 into DC power and output it from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. In each phase, the upper arm switches and lower arm switches are turned on alternately with a dead time in between. In each phase, the switching period of the upper and lower arm switches is the same.

[0032] If a negative determination is made in step S10, the process proceeds to step S13 to determine whether or not a single-phase charging control instruction has been given. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 4, if it is determined that a single-phase AC power supply 22 is connected to the first AC terminal Tac1 and the third AC terminal Tac3, it is determined that a single-phase charging control instruction has been given. In this embodiment, the amplitude Vac of the output voltage of the single-phase AC power supply 22 is the same as the amplitude of the output voltage of the three-phase AC power supply 21. Also, the frequency of the output voltage of the single-phase AC power supply 22 is the same as the frequency of the output voltage of the three-phase AC power supply 21.

[0033] If a positive result is obtained in step S13, single-phase charging control is performed in steps S14 and S15. Specifically, in step S14, the single-phase charging switch 46 is turned ON.

[0034] In step S15, the first upper arm switch S1H, the first lower arm switch S1L, the second upper arm switch S2H, and the second lower arm switch S2L are switched to convert the AC power input from the first AC terminal Tac1 and the third AC terminal Tac3 into DC power and output it from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. In each phase, the upper arm switches and lower arm switches are turned on alternately in synchronous manner with a dead time in between. In each phase, the switching period of the upper and lower arm switches is the same, and is the same as the switching period during three-phase charging control.

[0035] Furthermore, in step S15, during the first period in which AC current flows from the third AC terminal Tac3 to the first AC terminal Tac1 via the single-phase AC power supply 22, the third lower arm switch S3L is turned on and the third upper arm switch S3H is turned off. On the other hand, during the second period in which current flows from the first AC terminal Tac1 to the third AC terminal Tac3 via the single-phase AC power supply 22, the third upper arm switch S3H is turned on and the third lower arm switch S3L is turned off. Whether the current timing falls within the first or second period can be determined, for example, based on the detected value of the first current sensor 61.

[0036] Incidentally, when single-phase charging control is performed, and the DC power input from each DC terminal TdcH, TdcL is converted to AC power and output from the first and third AC terminals Tac1, Tac3 by switching control of the first upper and lower arm switches S1H, S1L and the second upper and lower arm switches S2H, S2L, in step S15, during the first period when current flows from the third AC terminal Tac3 to the first AC terminal Tac1 via the single-phase AC power supply 22, the third upper arm switch S3H is turned on and the third lower arm switch S3L is turned off. On the other hand, during the second period when current flows from the first AC terminal Tac1 to the third AC terminal Tac3 via the single-phase AC power supply 22, the third lower arm switch S3L is turned on and the third upper arm switch S3H is turned off.

[0037] Next, we will explain the three-phase charging control using Figure 6. Figure 6 is a block diagram of the three-phase charging control performed by the control device 70.

[0038] The voltage control unit 80 calculates the d-axis target current Idref to control the terminal voltage of the DC capacitor 34 detected by the DC voltage sensor 50 (hereinafter referred to as the DC voltage detection value Vdcr) to a target DC voltage Vdcref (for example, 800V). More specifically, the voltage control unit 80 comprises a voltage deviation calculation unit 81 and a voltage feedback control unit 82. The voltage deviation calculation unit 81 calculates the voltage deviation ΔV by subtracting the DC voltage detection value Vdcr from the target DC voltage Vdcref. The target DC voltage Vdcref can be set, for example, based on the rated voltages of each upper and lower arm switch S1H to S4L and the DC-DC converter 24.

[0039] The voltage feedback control unit 82 calculates the d-axis target current Idref as a manipulated variable for feedback control of the voltage deviation ΔV to zero. The feedback control in the voltage feedback control unit 82 is, for example, proportional-integral control.

[0040] The electrical angle calculation unit 83 calculates the electrical angle θe based on the voltage detected by the AC voltage sensor 51 (hereinafter referred to as the AC voltage detection value V1r). In this embodiment, the electrical angle θe at the zero-cross timing of the AC voltage detection value V1r (specifically, for example, the zero-up cross timing) is set to 0°, and the electrical angle θe at the next zero-up cross timing is set to 360°. As a result, one cycle of the AC voltage detection value V1r corresponds to one cycle of the electrical angle (0° to 360°). In this embodiment, the AC voltage detection value V1r is considered positive when the voltage at the first AC terminal Tac1 is higher than the voltage at the ground of the power converter 10. The ground is connected to the neutral point of the three-phase AC power supply 21 or the single-phase AC power supply 22.

[0041] The two-phase conversion unit 84 converts the first, second, and third current detection values ​​i1r, i2r, and i3r in the three-phase fixed coordinate system into d and q axis currents Idr and Iqr in the two-phase rotating coordinate system (dq axis coordinate system) based on the currents detected by the first, second, and third current sensors 61, 62, and 63 (hereinafter referred to as the first, second, and third current detection values ​​i1r, i2r, and i3r) and the electrical angle θe. In this embodiment, the first, second, and third current detection values ​​i1r, i2r, and i3r are considered positive when they flow from the first, second, and third AC terminals Tac1, Tac2, and Tac3 to the first, second, and third inductors 31, 32, and 33.

[0042] The current control unit 85 includes a d-axis deviation calculation unit 86, a d-axis feedback control unit 87, a q-axis deviation calculation unit 88, and a q-axis feedback control unit 89.

[0043] The d-axis deviation calculation unit 86 calculates the d-axis current deviation ΔId by subtracting the d-axis current Idr from the d-axis target current Idref. The d-axis feedback control unit 87 calculates the d-axis target voltage Vdref as an manipulated variable for feedback control of the d-axis current deviation ΔId to 0. The feedback control in the d-axis feedback control unit 87 is, for example, proportional-integral control.

[0044] The q-axis deviation calculation unit 88 calculates the q-axis current deviation ΔIq by subtracting the q-axis current Iqr from the q-axis target current Iqref. The q-axis target current Iqref is the target value of the reactive current, and in this embodiment, it is set to 0 in order to make the power factor 1. Making the power factor 1 means making the phase difference between the first, second, and third output voltages V1, V2, V3 of the three-phase AC power supply 21 and the first, second, and third current detection values ​​i1r, i2r, i3r 0. The q-axis feedback control unit 89 calculates the q-axis target voltage Vqref as an manipulated variable for feedback control to make the q-axis current deviation ΔIq 0. The feedback control in the q-axis feedback control unit 89 is, for example, proportional-integral control.

[0045] The three-phase conversion unit 90 converts the d and q axis target voltages Vdref and Vqref in the two-phase rotating coordinate system to the first, second, and third target voltages Vleg1ref, Vleg2ref, and Vleg3ref in the three-phase fixed coordinate system, based on the d and q axis target voltages Vdref and Vqref and the electrical angle θe. The first, second, and third target voltages Vleg1ref, Vleg2ref, and Vleg3ref are sinusoidal signals with a phase difference of 120° in the electrical angle. A sinusoidal signal is a signal that becomes zero every 180° of electrical angle.

[0046] The PWM generation unit 91 generates the first upper and lower arm drive signals supplied to the gates of the first upper and lower arm switches S1H and S1L, the second upper and lower arm drive signals supplied to the gates of the second upper and lower arm switches S2H and S2L, and the third upper and lower arm drive signals supplied to the gates of the third upper and lower arm switches S3H and S3L by pulse width modulation (PWM) based on a comparison of the magnitudes of the first, second and third target voltages Vleg1ref, Vleg2ref, and Vleg3ref with the carrier signal. The carrier signal is, for example, a triangular wave signal, and one period of the carrier signal is sufficiently shorter than one period of electrical angle (0° to 360°). In one period of electrical angle, the switching patterns of the first upper and lower arm switches S1H and S1L, the switching patterns of the second upper and lower arm switches S2H and S2L, and the switching patterns of the third upper and lower arm switches S3H and S3L are shifted in phase by 120° each.

[0047] In this embodiment, during three-phase charging control, the first, second, and third target voltages Vleg1ref, Vleg2ref, and Vleg3ref are calculated in the three-phase conversion unit 90 so that the first DC power P1, the second DC power P2, and the third DC power P3 are equal. The first, second, and third DC powers P1, P2, and P3 are individual DC powers output from the three-phase AC power supply 21 via the first, second, and third inductors 31, 32, and 33 to their respective DC terminals TdcH and TdcL. As a result, the effective values ​​of the currents flowing through the first, second, and third inductors 31, 32, and 33 are the same (for example, 16Arms).

[0048] Incidentally, the control device 70 may, as a three-phase charging control, perform switching control of the upper and lower arm switches S1H to S3L of the first to third phases based on average current mode control or the like, instead of the control shown in Figure 6.

[0049] Next, we will explain single-phase charging control using Figure 7. Figure 7 is a block diagram of the single-phase charging control performed by the control device 70.

[0050] In the control device 70, the filter unit 112 applies a low-pass filter to the detected DC voltage value Vdcr. This removes the harmonic components of the output voltage of the single-phase AC power supply 22 that are included in the detected DC voltage value Vdcr. The harmonic components are, for example, components of the second frequency of the output voltage (e.g., 100Hz or 120Hz).

[0051] The voltage control unit 101 comprises a voltage deviation calculation unit 102 and a voltage feedback control unit 103. The voltage deviation calculation unit 102 calculates the voltage deviation ΔV by subtracting the detected DC voltage value Vdcr from the target DC voltage Vdcref from which harmonic components have been removed in the filter unit 112. The voltage feedback control unit 103 calculates the target current amplitude Iampref as an manipulated variable for feedback control of the voltage deviation ΔV to 0. The feedback control in the voltage feedback control unit 103 is, for example, proportional-integral control.

[0052] The electrical angle calculation unit 83 calculates the electrical angle θe based on the detected AC voltage value V1r. The sine wave generation unit 109 generates a sine wave signal "sin × θe" based on the electrical angle θe.

[0053] The current control unit 105 includes a target current calculation unit 106, a current deviation calculation unit 107, and a current feedback control unit 108.

[0054] The target current calculation unit 106 calculates the target current Iacref by multiplying the target current amplitude Iampref by a sinusoidal signal "sin × θe". The target current Iacref fluctuates with the same period as the detected AC voltage value V1r.

[0055] The current deviation calculation unit 107 calculates the current deviation ΔI by subtracting the sum of the first current detection value i1r and the second current detection value i2r from the target current Iacref. The sum of the first current detection value i1r and the second current detection value i2r is calculated by the current addition unit 110.

[0056] The current feedback control unit 108 calculates first and second target voltages Vleg1ref and Vleg2ref as manipulated variables for feedback control to reduce the current deviation ΔI to zero. The feedback control in the current feedback control unit 108 is, for example, proportional-integral control. The first and second target voltages Vleg1ref and Vleg2ref are in-phase signals. In this embodiment, during single-phase charging control, the first and second target voltages Vleg1ref and Vleg2ref are calculated in the current feedback control unit 108 so that the first DC power P1 and the second DC power P2 are equal.

[0057] The PWM generation unit 111 generates a first upper and lower arm drive signal to be supplied to the gates of the first upper and lower arm switches S1H and S1L, and a second upper and lower arm drive signal to be supplied to the gates of the second upper and lower arm switches S2H and S2L, by pulse width modulation based on a comparison of the magnitudes of the first and second target voltages Vleg1ref and Vleg2ref with the carrier signal. In this embodiment, the phase difference between the switching patterns of the first upper and lower arm switches S1H and S1L and the switching patterns of the second upper and lower arm switches S2H and S2L is 0° in one electrical angle period. In other words, the on-switching timing and off-switching timing of the first upper arm switch S1H and the second upper arm switch S2H are synchronized, and the on-switching timing and off-switching timing of the first lower arm switch S1L and the second lower arm switch S2L are synchronized.

[0058] In this embodiment, during single-phase charging control, the first and second target voltages Vleg1ref and Vleg2ref are calculated in the current feedback control unit 108 so that the first DC power P1 and the second DC power P2 are equal. The first and second DC powers P1 and P2 are, as described above, individual DC powers output from the three-phase AC power supply 21 via the first and second inductors 31 and 32 to the respective DC terminals TdcH and TdcL.

[0059] Since the fourth coil 36D is connected in parallel to the third coil 36C, during single-phase charging control, the current flowing through the third path 43 is distributed to the third and fourth coils 36C and 36D, and in this embodiment, it is distributed equally. Therefore, the effective values ​​of the currents flowing through the first to fourth coils 36A to 36D can be set to the same value (for example, 16 Arms), and the rated currents (specifically, the temperature rise rated currents) of the first to fourth coils 36A to 36D can be set to the same value.

[0060] Figure 8 shows the configuration of the comparative example. In the comparative example, the common mode filter 35 does not have a fourth coil 36D.

[0061] In the comparative example, during single-phase charging control, the effective value of the current flowing through the third coil 36C is greater than the effective value of the current flowing through the first and second coils 36A and 36B. Specifically, the effective value of the current flowing through the third coil 36C is twice the effective value of the current flowing through the first and second coils 36A and 36B (for example, 32Arms). Generally, the rated current of each coil constituting a common-mode filter is set to the same value as the rated current of the coil with the largest effective value of the current flowing through it. Therefore, it becomes necessary to match the rated current of the first and second coils 36A and 36B to the rated current of the third coil 36C. As the rated current increases, the coils become larger, and in the comparative example, the first and second coils 36A and 36B become larger.

[0062] In contrast, in this embodiment, the rated currents of the third and fourth coils 36C and 36D can be reduced to the rated currents of the first and second coils 36A and 36B. As a result, the third and fourth coils 36C and 36D can be miniaturized, and consequently, the common mode filter 35 can be miniaturized.

[0063] <Modified form of the first embodiment> The specific coil connected in parallel to the third coil 36C is not limited to one, but may be multiple.

[0064] <Second Embodiment> The second embodiment will be described below, focusing on the differences from the first embodiment, with reference to the drawings.

[0065] In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 9, the power converter 10 comprises a series connection of a fourth upper arm switch S4H, which is the "upper arm rectifier section," and a fourth lower arm switch S4L, which is the "lower arm rectifier section," as well as a second single-phase charging switch 47 and a third single-phase charging switch 487. In this embodiment, the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L are N-channel MOSFETs having body diodes. The second and third single-phase charging switches 47 and 48 allow bidirectional current flow when they are ON and block bidirectional current flow when they are OFF. In this embodiment, the single-phase charging switch 46 will be referred to as the first single-phase charging switch 46.

[0066] The second single-phase charging switch 47 and the third single-phase charging switch 48 are provided to reduce the effective value of the current flowing through the third inductor 33 during single-phase charging control, thereby reducing the rated current of the third inductor 33. The second single-phase charging switch 47 connects the connection point of the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L to the portion of the third path 43 between the third inductor 33 and the third coil 36C. The third single-phase charging switch 48 connects the portion of the third path 43 closer to the third AC terminal Tac3 than the third coil 36C to the fourth AC terminal Tac4. The third single-phase charging switch 48 may also connect the third AC terminal Tac3 and the fourth AC terminal Tac4.

[0067] The charging control performed by the control device 70 will be explained using Figure 10.

[0068] In step S20, it is determined whether or not an instruction for three-phase charging control has been given. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 11, if it is determined that a three-phase AC power supply 21 is connected to the first to third AC terminals Tac1 to Tac3, it is determined that an instruction for three-phase charging control has been given. Note that in Figure 11, the neutral point of the three-phase AC power supply 21 is connected to the fourth AC terminal Tac4, but the neutral point does not have to be connected to the fourth AC terminal Tac4.

[0069] If a positive result is obtained in step S20, three-phase charging control is performed in steps S21 and S22. Specifically, in step S21, the first to third single-phase charging switches 46 to 48 and the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L are turned off (see Figure 11).

[0070] In step S22, similar to step S12 in Figure 5, the AC power input from the first AC terminal Tac1, the second AC terminal Tac2, and the third AC terminal Tac3 is converted into DC power and output from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. Switching control of the first, second, and third upper arm switches S1H, S2H, S3H and the first, second, and third lower arm switches S1L, S2L, S3L is performed.

[0071] If a negative result is obtained in step S20, the process proceeds to step S23 to determine whether or not an instruction for single-phase charging control has been given. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 12, if it is determined that a single-phase AC power supply 22 is connected to the first AC terminal Tac1 and the fourth AC terminal Tac4, it is determined that an instruction for single-phase charging control has been given.

[0072] If a positive result is obtained in step S23, single-phase charging control is performed in steps S24 and S25. Specifically, in step S24, the first to third single-phase charging switches 46 to 48 are turned ON. Also, the third upper and lower arm switches S3H and S3L and the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L are turned OFF. As a result, only current flow through the body diode is possible in the third upper and lower arm switches S3H and S3L and the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L.

[0073] In step S25, similar to step S15, the first upper arm switch S1H, the first lower arm switch S1L, the second upper arm switch S2H, and the second lower arm switch S2L are switched to convert the AC power input from the first AC terminal Tac1 and the fourth AC terminal Tac4 into DC power and output it from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. In each phase, the upper arm switches and lower arm switches are turned on alternately in synchronous manner with a dead time in between.

[0074] The series connection of the third upper and lower arm switches S3H and S3L will be referred to as the third leg, and the series connection of the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L will be referred to as the fourth leg. During single-phase charging control, current flows not only through the third leg and the third path 43, but also through the fourth leg. Therefore, compared to the first embodiment, the current flowing through the third inductor 33 can be reduced, and the rated current of the third inductor 33 (specifically, the temperature rise rated current) can be reduced. As a result, in addition to the effects of the first embodiment, further effects such as miniaturization of the third inductor 33 can be achieved.

[0075] <Third Embodiment> The third embodiment will now be described, focusing on the differences from the second embodiment, with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 13, the power converter 10 is equipped with a three-phase charging switch 49. The three-phase charging switch 49 is provided in the portion of the third path 43 between the third inductor 33 and the third coil 36C. When the three-phase charging switch 49 is on, it allows the flow of current in both directions, and when it is off, it prevents the flow of current in both directions.

[0076] The charging control performed by the control device 70 will be explained using Figure 14.

[0077] In step S30, it is determined whether or not an instruction for three-phase charging control has been given, similar to step S20 in Figure 10.

[0078] If a positive determination is made in step S30, three-phase charging control is performed in steps S31 and S32. Specifically, in step S31, the first to third single-phase charging switches 46 to 48 and the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L are turned off, and the three-phase charging switch 49 is turned on (see Figure 15).

[0079] In step S32, similar to step S12, the switching control of the first, second, and third upper arm switches S1H, S2H, S3H and the first, second, and third lower arm switches S1L, S2L, S3L is performed to convert the AC power input from the first AC terminal Tac1, the second AC terminal Tac2, and the third AC terminal Tac3 into DC power and output it from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL.

[0080] If a negative result is obtained in step S30, the process proceeds to step S33. In step S33, it is determined whether or not an instruction for single-phase charging control has been given, similar to step S23.

[0081] If a positive determination is made in step S33, single-phase charging control is performed in steps S34 and S35. Specifically, in step S34, the first to third single-phase charging switches 46 to 48 are turned on, and the three-phase charging switch 49 and the third upper and lower arm switches S3H and S3L are turned off (see Figure 16).

[0082] In step S35, the AC power input from the first AC terminal Tac1 and the fourth AC terminal Tac4 is converted into DC power and output from the high-potential DC terminal TdcH and the low-potential DC terminal TdcL. Switching control of the first upper arm switch S1H, the first lower arm switch S1L, the second upper arm switch S2H, and the second lower arm switch S2L is performed in the same manner as in step S15. In each phase, the upper arm switches and lower arm switches are turned on alternately and synchronously, with a dead time in between.

[0083] Furthermore, in step S35, during the first period in which AC current flows from the fourth AC terminal Tac4 to the first AC terminal Tac1 via the single-phase AC power supply 22, the fourth lower arm switch S4L is turned on and the fourth upper arm switch S4H is turned off. On the other hand, during the second period in which current flows from the first AC terminal Tac1 to the fourth AC terminal Tac4 via the single-phase AC power supply 22, the fourth upper arm switch S4H is turned on and the fourth lower arm switch S4L is turned off. Whether the current timing falls within the first or second period can be determined, for example, based on the detected value of the first current sensor 61.

[0084] In this embodiment, the three-phase charging switch 49 is turned off during single-phase charging control, so no current flows through the third inductor 33. Therefore, the rated current of the third inductor 33 can be further reduced, and consequently, the third inductor 33 can be made smaller.

[0085] <Other Embodiments> Furthermore, each of the above embodiments may be implemented with the following modifications.

[0086] The control device 70 may interleave the first and second upper and lower arm switches S1H, S1L, S2H, S2L when controlling single-phase charging. Interleaved driving is a switching control that shifts the switching timing of the first upper arm switch S1H to ON and the switching timing of the second upper arm switch S2H to ON by 180° in electrical angle.

[0087] In the second and third embodiments of single-phase charging control, if bidirectional power conversion is not performed and only unidirectional power conversion from AC power to DC power is performed, upper and lower arm diodes may be provided instead of the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L. The cathode, which is the high-potential terminal of the upper arm diode, is connected to the high-potential path 30H, and the anode, which is the low-potential terminal of the lower arm diode, is connected to the low-potential path 30L. The anode of the upper arm diode and the cathode of the lower arm diode are connected.

[0088] The power converter is not limited to an on-board charger; it may also be the configuration shown in Figure 17. The power converter 10 shown in Figure 17 is a device used in facilities that handle large amounts of power, such as megawatts, and is equipped with a 4-leg AC-DC converter circuit, which is commonly used as an active filter circuit for a 3-phase system. Note that in Figure 17, for convenience, the same reference numerals are used for the configurations corresponding to the previously shown configurations.

[0089] The power converter 10 is equipped with a common mode filter 135. The common mode filter 135 is a five-phase filter comprising a first coil 136A, a second coil 136B, a third coil 136C, a fourth coil 136D, and a fifth coil 136E as a "specific coil". In other words, while the input has four phases, the common mode filter 135 has five phases, one more than the input phases. The connection point of the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L is connected to the fourth AC terminal Tac4 by a connection path 140. The first to third coils 136A to 136C are provided in the first to third paths 41 to 43, and the fourth coil 136D is provided in the connection path 140.

[0090] The connection path 140 may carry a larger current than the first to third paths 41 to 43. For this reason, the fourth coil 136D, located in the connection path 140, has a fifth coil 136E connected in parallel. This allows the current flowing through the connection path 140 to be distributed to the fourth and fifth coils 136D and 136E, thereby reducing the rated current of the fourth and fifth coils 136D and 136E.

[0091] Furthermore, the power conversion device may have the configuration shown in Figure 18. The power conversion device 10 shown in Figure 18 is equipped with a 4-leg AC-DC conversion circuit (inverter) that is applied to a 3-phase rotating electric machine 200. Note that in Figure 18, for convenience, some components corresponding to the configuration shown in Figure 17 are given the same reference numerals.

[0092] The first to third AC terminals Tac1 to Tac3 are connected to the first ends of the armature windings 201 of the rotating electric machine 200. The second ends of the armature windings 201 of each phase are connected at the neutral point. This neutral point is connected to the connection point of the fourth upper and lower arm switches S4H and S4L by a connection path 210.

[0093] The connection path 210 may carry a larger current than the first to third paths 41 to 43. For this reason, the fourth coil 136D, located in the connection path 210, has a fifth coil 136E connected in parallel. This allows the current flowing through the connection path 210 to be distributed to the fourth and fifth coils 136D and 136E.

[0094] In the first to third embodiments, the number of specific coils connected in parallel to the third coil 36C, and the number of specific coils connected in parallel to the fourth coil 136D in Figures 17 and 18, are not limited to one, but may be multiple. Furthermore, the phase of the coil to which the specific coil is connected is not limited to one phase, but may be multiple phases excluding all phases.

[0095] The power converter 10 may have only the second function of a first function, which converts AC power input via an AC terminal connected to an external AC power source into DC power and outputs it from a DC terminal, and a second function, which converts DC power input from a DC terminal into AC power and outputs it from an AC terminal.

[0096] The first upper arm switch may be composed of a parallel connection of multiple N-channel MOSFETs. The same applies to the first lower arm switch and the second to fourth upper and lower arm switches.

[0097] The upper and lower arm switches are not limited to N-channel MOSFETs; for example, an IGBT with freewheeling diodes connected in antiparallel may also be used. In this case, the collector of the IGBT corresponds to the high-potential terminal, and the emitter corresponds to the low-potential terminal.

[0098] Instead of the DC capacitor 34, for example, a small-capacity rechargeable battery may be provided.

[0099] The energy storage unit connected to the output of the DC-DC converter 24 is not limited to a battery; for example, it may be a large-capacity electric double-layer capacitor, or both a battery and an electric double-layer capacitor.

[0100] The mobile device on which the power converter is mounted is not limited to a vehicle; for example, it could be an aircraft or a ship. Furthermore, the mounting location of the power converter is not limited to a mobile device; it could be a stationary device.

[0101] The control unit and its method described herein may be implemented by a dedicated computer provided by configuring a processor and memory programmed to perform one or more functions embodied by a computer program. Alternatively, the control unit and its method described herein may be implemented by a dedicated computer provided by configuring a processor by one or more dedicated hardware logic circuits. Alternatively, the control unit and its method described herein may be implemented by one or more dedicated computers configured by a combination of a processor and memory programmed to perform one or more functions and a processor configured by one or more hardware logic circuits. Furthermore, the computer program may be stored as instructions executed by the computer on a computer-readable non-transitional tangible recording medium. [Explanation of symbols]
