Elevator speed control apparatus with drive motor residual secondary magnetic flux control

摘要

An elevator speed control apparatus includes an inverter connected to an AC power source so as to supply an induction motor for driving an elevator with a variable-voltage, variable-frequency AC. A contactor provided between the invertor and the AC power source. A magnetic flux computing device computes residual value of secondary magnetic flux of the induction motor while the contactor is closed. A control device divides a primary current of the induction motor into an exciting current component and a torque current component so as to perform vector control, this control device being also used to generate a forcing pattern for the exciting current component in accordance with an output of the magnetic flux computing means when the contactor is closed.
