Abstract From the Canadian patent

With so-called single-current measurement in the directcurrent link of a brushless direct-current motor there, is the problem that current peaks occur in the phase windings during commutation, said current peaks not being detected by single-current measurement in the direct-current link. Consequently, current regulation during commutation is based on an incorrect actual value of the current. The object of the present invention is to propose a process that, firstly, measures the motor current in low-cost manner by means of single-current measurement in the direct-current link and, secondly suppresses the, current peaks that occur during commutation. The object of the invention is achieved in …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed March 22, 1991 and granted May 6, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 22, 2011.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 22, 2013.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
