Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An inverter is provided. The inverter includes a current providing unit providing a first axis current and a second axis current to an induction motor; a revolutions per minute (RPM) measuring unit measuring the RPM of the induction motor; and a control unit changing the second axis current according to the measured RPM.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An inverter comprising: a current providing unit configured to provide a first axis current and a second axis current to an induction motor, wherein the first axis current is a quadrate axis current and the second axis current is a direct axis current; a revolutions per minute (RPM) measuring unit configured to measure a RPM of the induction motor; and a control unit configured to: change the quadrate axis current and the direct axis current according to the measured RPM to allow the induction motor to have a maximum torque at the measured RPM if an acceleration of an electronic vehicle operates; and fix the direct axis current and change the quadrate current if the acceleration of the electronic vehicle does not operate. 2. The inverter according to claim 1 , further comprising a storage unit configured to match and store the measured RPM with the second axis current corresponding to the measured RPM. 3. The inverter according to claim 2 , wherein the control unit is further configured to control the current providing unit to search for a stored second axis current corresponding to the measured RPM and provide the stored second axis current to the induction motor. 4. A method of controlling an inverter, the method comprising: providing a first axis current and a second axis current to an induction motor, wherein the first axis current is a quadrate axis current and the second axis current is a direct axis current; measuring a RPM of the induction motor; changing the quadrate axis current and the direct axis current according to the measured RPM to allow the induction motor to have a maximum torque at the measured RPM if an acceleration of an electronic vehicle operates; and fixing the direct axis current and changing the quadrate current if the acceleration of the electronic vehicle does not operate. 5. The method according to claim 4 , further comprising matching and storing the measured RPM with the second axis current corresponding to the measured RPM. 6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the changing of the second axis current comprises controlling a current providing unit to search for a stored second axis current corresponding to the measured RPM and providing the stored second axis current to the induction motor.
