Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional motor parameter-settings for resistance and capacitance are inadequate for effectively managing different operating stages of a motor, leading to inefficient performance across various operational conditions.

Innovation Solution

A motor operating system comprising a parameter-setting module and a control circuit that generates and adjusts parameter-settings through a user interface, monitors the motor's operating status, and optimizes settings based on predefined thresholds to ensure efficient operation across different stages, including start-up, operating, and stop stages.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a single set of parameter-settings for resistance and capacitance is used during motor operation, then the device complexity is reduced, but the motor performance cannot be effectively optimized across different operating stages

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemotor performance optimizationVSAvoidparameter-setting complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the motor operation into distinct stages (start-up, acceleration, steady-state, deceleration, stopping) and assigns specific parameter-settings to each stage. This segmentation allows the system to optimize performance for each operating condition independently rather than using a single universal parameter-set.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The control circuit dynamically switches between different parameter-settings based on the current operating stage of the motor. The system monitors motor status and automatically adjusts resistance and capacitance parameters in real-time to match the optimal settings for each stage, making the system adaptable without requiring manual intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Productivity

If conventional parameter-settings are used for resistance and capacitance, then the ease of operation is maintained, but the productivity and operation efficiency of the motor cannot be improved

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemotor operation efficiencyVSAvoidparameter-adjustment complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The control circuit is designed to automatically select and apply the appropriate parameter-settings for each operating stage without requiring user intervention. The system self-monitors its own operation status and self-adjusts the resistance and capacitance parameters, eliminating the need for users to manually tune complex parameters while achieving optimized performance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback mechanisms that monitor motor operating status and use this information to determine which parameter-setting should be applied next. This closed-loop control ensures that the motor operates at peak efficiency for each stage while the system automatically manages the complexity of parameter adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A motor operating system includes a parameter-setting module and a control circuit. The parameter-setting module generates a first parameter-setting corresponding to a first operating stage through a user interface, and determines whether a first operating status conforms to a first threshold setting. The control circuit is coupled to a motor, receives the first parameter-setting corresponding to the first operating status, drives the motor according to a first driving signal corresponding to the first parameter-setting, and outputs the first operating status corresponding to the first driving signal. When the first operating status does not conform the first threshold setting, the parameter-setting module generates an adjusted first parameter-setting. When the first operating status conforms the first threshold setting, the parameter-setting module sets the first parameter-setting as a first optimal parameter-setting.
