Oil pump device

An oil pump device comprising:

• an oil pump connected to a supply target apparatus by a hydraulic circuit, the oil pump discharging and supplying oil to the supply target apparatus through the hydraulic circuit;
• a motor driving the oil pump;
• a trapping member interposed along the hydraulic circuit, the trapping member trapping a foreign matter mixed in the oil discharged from the oil pump;
• a motor control unit controlling the motor to perform a normal control mode of driving the oil pump in a normal control rotation range and perform, at operational start of the oil pump, a lock-avoiding mode of driving the oil pump with a lock-avoiding rotational speed set in advance, wherein, at a first time of starting operation of the oil pump after the oil pump device is activated, the motor control unit identifies the operational start of the oil pump and performs the lock-avoiding mode, oil pump device after performance of maintenance, the motor control unit identifies the operational start of the oil pump and performs the lock-avoiding mode;
• and the motor control unit configured to receive a reset input signal, wherein when the oil pump device is activated in a state where the reset input signal is received, the motor control unit identifies first operation of the oil pump device after the manufacture or first operation after performing maintenance, and performs the lock-avoiding mode at a time of starting operation of the oil pump.

• wherein the motor control unit repeats operation and stop of the oil pump during operation of the oil pump device, and, every time operation of the oil pump that is stopped is restarted, the motor control unit identifies the operational start of the oil pump and performs the lock-avoiding mode,
• wherein the motor control unit performs the lock-avoiding mode for a third execution time set in advance at a first time of starting operation of the oil pump after the oil pump device is activated, and performs the lock-avoiding mode for a fourth execution time set in advance to a time shorter than the third execution time every time the operation of the oil pump that is stopped is restarted during the operation of the oil pump device.
