Motor system

A motor system comprising:

• a positive line connected with a positive terminal of a DC power source;
• a negative line connected with a negative terminal of the DC power source;
• three switching circuits connected in parallel between the positive line and the negative line;
• a three-phase AC motor provided with three coils star-connected to one another, each of the three coils being connected with an output terminal of corresponding one of the three switching circuits;
• and
• a controller;
• wherein
• each of the three switching circuits comprises:
• a first upper switching element and a first lower switching element connected in series between the positive line and the negative line;
• a second upper switching element and a second lower switching element connected in series between the positive line and the negative line;
• a first sub-reactor connected between the output terminal and a midpoint of a series connection of the first upper and lower switching elements;
• a second sub-reactor connected between the output terminal and a midpoint of a series connection of the second upper and lower switching elements;
• a first upper diode connected in anti-parallel with the first upper switching element;
• a first lower diode connected in anti-parallel with the first lower switching element;
• a second upper diode connected in anti-parallel with the second upper switching element;
• and
• a second lower diode connected in anti-parallel with the second lower switching element;
• the controller comprises:
• a signal output module configured to output three upper PWM signals and three lower PWM signals, wherein each of the three upper PWM signals drives the first upper switching element or the second upper switching element of the corresponding switching circuit, and each of the three lower PWM signals drives the first lower switching element or the second lower switching element of the corresponding switching circuit;
• a signal distribution module configured to distribute each of the three upper PWM signals alternately to the first upper switching element and the second upper switching element of the corresponding switching circuit and configured to distribute each of the three lower PWM signals alternately to the first lower switching element and the second lower switching element of the corresponding switching circuit;
• and
• a signal adjusting module connected between the signal output module and the signal distribution module, the signal adjusting module being configured to invert all the three upper PWM signals and all the three lower PWM signals when
• (1) each of currents flowing through two of the three coils has a negative value and all the three upper PWM signals are at a HIGH level, or
• (2) each of currents flowing through two of the three coils has a positive value and all the three lower PWM signals are at a LOW level.
