Electric motor control device, method and program
First Claim
1. A device for controlling an electric motor, said device including means for measuring a current Im drawn by said motor, means for measuring torque supplied by said motor, power supply means for said motor, and an initialization unit capable of generating a torque set point Cc and of receiving and processing information relating to said current Im and a measured torque Cm to deduce therefrom a relationship between said set point Cc, the measured torque Cm and said current Im in order to be able to determine an applied torque Ca from said set point Cc and said current Im.

Abstract
A device for controlling an electric motor measures the current Im drawn by the motor and the torque Cm supplied by the motor. It includes a power supply 4 for the motor and an initialization unit 16 capable of generating a torque set point Cc and of receiving and processing information relating to the current Im and the torque Cm to deduce therefrom a relationship between the set point Cc, the torque Cm and the current Im in order to be able to determine the torque Cm from the set point Cc and the current Im.
