A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12003198B2) discloses a motor detection method and device designed to accurately detect a motor device. The method involves providing an excitation current command to the motor device, driving it to rotate at specific angles, and obtaining feedback angles in resting positions to calculate a magnetic pole offset angle. The resting positions are where the total torque of the motor device is zero, ensuring precise measurements. Additionally, the method includes adjusting the magnetic pole offset angle based on the feedback angles obtained.

Furthermore, the patent details the motor detection device, which consists of a controller and an encoder. The controller is responsible for providing excitation current commands, driving the motor device to rotate at specific angles, and calculating the magnetic pole offset angle based on feedback angles obtained by the encoder. Similar to the method, the device ensures accurate detection by utilizing resting positions with zero total torque. Additionally, the device includes a mechanism to adjust the magnetic pole offset angle when necessary, further enhancing the precision of the motor detection process.
