As one specific embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the rectifier module 21 includes a rectifier bridge composed of four diodes D1, D2, D3, and D4, and converts the alternating current into pulsating direct current in the same direction by using the unidirectional conductivity of the diodes and the tube voltage drop.
The capacitor circuit 22 is connected in parallel to the dc bus of the power tool 10, i.e., between the positive and negative poles of the dc unit in the circuit system 12. As one of the specific embodiments, the capacitor circuit 22 is optionally connected in parallel between the rectifier module 21 and the driving circuit 24.

The electronic switches Q1-Q6 change the on or off state at a certain frequency according to the driving signal output by the control module 25, thereby changing the power state of the rectifying circuit 21 applied to the winding of the motor 13.
The drive circuit 24 is a circuit for switching the energization state of each phase winding of the motor 13 and controlling the energization current of each phase winding to rotationally drive the motor 13. The turn-on sequence and timing of the phase windings depends on the position of the rotor. In order to rotate the motor 13, the driving circuit 24 has a plurality of driving states, in which a stator winding of the motor 13 generates a magnetic field, and the control module 25 outputs a control signal based on different rotor positions to control the driving circuit 24 to switch the driving states so that the magnetic field generated by the stator winding rotates to drive the rotor to rotate, thereby driving the motor 13.
The rotation speed detection module 26 is configured to obtain at least one of a measured rotation speed of the motor 13 and a position of the rotor. In some embodiments, the speed detection module 26 includes sensors capable of directly detecting the speed and position of the motor 13, such as hall sensors. In other embodiments, the speed detection module 26 is configured to estimate the rotor position of the electric machine 13 based on at least the phase voltages of the electric machine 13 and the current values of the stator windings.
The current detection module 27 is configured to collect a current of the motor 13, where the current may be a bus current of the motor 13 or a phase current of each phase winding of the motor 13. As one of specific embodiments, the current detection module 27 detects phase currents of windings of each phase of the motor 13, and the bus current of the motor 13 can be calculated from the detected three-phase current values, and in some embodiments, the current detection module 27 includes hall current sensors to directly detect the phase currents of the windings of each phase of the motor 13. As another specific embodiment, referring to fig. 4, current detecting resistors R1, R2, and R3 are respectively connected in series between the driving circuit 24 and each phase winding of the motor 13, and the current detecting module 27 can calculate the phase current or the bus current of each phase winding by detecting the voltage across the detecting resistors. Specifically, the current detection module 27 detects voltages at two ends of the current detection resistors R1, R2, and R3, respectively, to calculate phase currents of the three-phase stator windings U, V, and W. As another specific embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the current detecting module 27 is configured to detect an internal resistance of an electronic switch in a conducting state in the driving circuit 24, and calculate a current through the electronic switch based on the internal resistance of the electronic switch in the conducting state and a voltage value across the electronic switch, where the current of the electronic switch is a phase current of a winding of the corresponding motor 13. Specifically, the current detection module 27 detects voltages at two ends of three driving switches Q1, Q3, and Q5 of the high-side switch respectively to calculate phase currents of the corresponding three-phase stator windings U, V, and W. Thus, the electric tool can detect the phase current corresponding to the winding of the motor 22 without adding hardware, and the cost is saved.
The control module 25 is electrically connected to at least the power supply circuit 23, the driving circuit 24 and the current detecting module 27 for controlling the operation of the driving circuit 24. In some embodiments, the control module 25 employs a dedicated control chip (e.g., MCU, micro control Unit, microcontroller Unit).
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 6 and 7, the control module 25 outputs a period T 1 Frequency of f 1 For controlling the conductive state of the plurality of electronic switches Q1-Q6 to drive the motor 13. Preferably, the motor 13 is provided as a three-phase brushless dc motor, and the drive signal is optionally provided as a PWM signal. Meanwhile, the control module 25 limits the current of the motor 13 for a periodic time interval T2, which is understood by those skilled in the art as a current limiting period of the motor, and T2 is defined as a current limiting period of the motor 13.
Referring to fig. 7, as one of the embodiments, the current limiting period T 2 Set to be equal to the period T of the PWM signal 1 And the consistency is maintained. The control module 25 is configured to limit the current period T 2 The current detection module 27 obtains the phase current value of the motor 13 in real time in the current-limiting period T, compares the phase current value with the preset current threshold, and if the phase current value exceeds the preset current threshold, determines that the current-limiting period T is within the current-limiting period T 2 Turns off the electronic switch for the remaining time of the previous one cycle, thereby cutting off the current flowing to the motor 13, and for the period T of the previous one PWM signal 1 At the end, the electronic switch is turned on to resume the current to the motor 13. In particular, the setting of a preset current thresholdThe setting can be additionally set according to the type selection of the motor in practical application and practical application scenes, and the setting method for presetting the current is not limited in the invention. It should be further noted that, in the above technical solution, the turned-off electronic switch is specifically an electronic switch currently in a turned-on state, and the turned-on electronic switch is an electronic switch controlled to be turned on by a current driving signal.
Under the heavy-load working condition, the motor 13 has enough power supply capacity of the power grid voltage, so that the overcurrent phenomenon can occur, components in the electric tool are damaged, and the service life of the electric tool is shortened. Referring to fig. 7, under a heavy load condition, the motor 13 has an overcurrent phenomenon, i.e., indicated by point b. By adopting the technical scheme of current limiting, the phase current value I phase Exceeds a predetermined current threshold I ref At this time, the control module 25 immediately turns off the electronic switch so that the current flowing through the motor 13 does not rise any more, i.e., as shown by point a. At the end of the current cycle of the PWM signal, indicated at point c, the control module 25 re-opens the electronic switch to restore current to the motor 13. It should be noted that, in the present invention, a current detection module is mainly provided to detect a phase current of the motor 13 for implementing cycle-by-cycle current limiting of the motor, and those skilled in the art can understand that the current detection module can also be used to implement cycle-by-cycle current limiting of the motor by detecting a bus current value of the motor, which is not described in detail herein.

And S105, turning on the electronic switch controlled to be turned on by the current driving signal, and returning to the step S101.
In other embodiments, the grid voltage fluctuates when the grid load is increased or decreased to a greater extent, thereby affecting the user's hand feeling. Therefore, the invention provides that the current of the motor is effectively limited, and the voltage of the power grid is effectively compensated. In particular, as shown in connection with fig. 9, the control module 25 controls the period T of the PWM signal for driving the motor 13 1 Continuously varying within a first predetermined period while setting a current limiting period T of the motor 13 2 With period T of the PWM signal 1 And the consistency is maintained. Wherein the first preset period range is optionally set to [0.5T ] 0 ,2T 0 ],T 0 Is the initial period of the PWM signal. In particular, the period T of the PWM signal is such that when the grid voltage is lower than or equal to the back emf of the present motor 13 1 Keeping the same; conversely, when the grid voltage is higher than the present back emf of the motor 13, the period T of the PWM signal 1 Continuously varying within a first preset range. Specifically, as shown in conjunction with fig. 9 and 10, the period T of the drive signal 1 The continuous variation set within the preset period range can be obtained by the following formula:

Referring to FIG. 12, specifically, the period T of the PWM signal 1 Randomly varying within a second predetermined period range may be set to the initial period T of the PWM signal 0 And the change of the normal distribution rule is met after white noise is superposed. Specifically, the initial period T of the PWM signal for driving the motor 13 0 Set to 100us, the period T of the PWM signal after white noise is superimposed 1 In a second predetermined period range [98us,102us ]]And the change is internal random, and the change meets the rule of normal distribution. It should be noted here that the second preset range of the setting of the present invention can be set by those skilled in the art according to the actual application scenario of the electric tool。
