Rotation Control Device, Rotation Control Method and Construction Machine
First Claim
1. A rotation control device that controls rotation of a rotary body driven by an electric motor based on a command from an operating section, the device comprising:
- a rotation position output means which outputs rotation position information of the rotary body;
a reference position storage means which stores an output value of the rotation position output means as a reference position;
a control command generating means which generates and outputs a control command for the electric motor;
a control-system change judging means which judges whether or not to change a control system of the rotation control device based on the output value of the rotation position output means, the reference position stored in the reference position storage means and an operated direction of the operating section; and
a control-system changing means which changes the control system of the rotation control device in accordance with the judgment result of the control-system change judging means, wherein the control-system changing means changes the control system so as to increase the control command for the electric motor to be a larger value than that before the change of the control system.

Abstract
In an electric rotary excavator (construction machine) 1, when earth pressure acts on a rotary body 4 in an opposite direction to an instructed direction of a lever, a control-system changing means 150 of a rotation control device 100 increases a torque output of an electric motor 5 that drives the rotary body 4. Accordingly, the torque output can properly react against the acting earth pressure, thereby preventing the rotary body from continuing to be rotated in the opposite direction. Therefore, even when the earth pressure becomes large, the work will not be affected. In addition, when the rotary body is rotated on a slope, the rotary body can be prevented from being rotated back greatly due to the weights of the boom and the arm.

6. A rotation control method for controlling rotation of a rotary body driven by an electric motor based on a command from an operating section, the method comprising:
-
outputting rotation position information of the rotary body;
storing an output value of the output rotation position information as a reference position;
generating and outputting a control command for the electric motor;
judging whether or not to change a control system of a rotation control device based on the output value of the rotation position information, the stored reference position and an operated direction of the operating section; and
increasing, when judging to change the control system of the rotation control device, the control command for the electric motor to be a value larger than that before the change of the control system.
