MOTOR CONTROL DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18322457 titled 'MOTOR CONTROL DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system that estimates the temperature of a coil in a motor when it is stopped and when it is driven. Based on these temperature estimates, a control unit is able to control the motor's driving.

• The system estimates the temperature of a coil in a motor when it is stopped.
• The system also estimates the temperature of the same coil when the motor is driven.
• A control unit uses these temperature estimates to control the driving of the motor.

Original Abstract Submitted

An estimation unit estimates a first coil temperature in a state where the motor is stopped, and a second coil temperature in a state where the motor is driven, and the control unit controls the driving of the motor based on the first coil temperature and the second coil temperature.
