ABSTRACT:
A method of stopping a scroll compressor that is driven by a 3-phase dc motor having 3-phase exciter windings is provided. The motor is energized by a 3-phase dc power that is produced from a dc power source through an electronic switching circuit. The switching circuit has three pairs of bridge-connected switching transistors whose switchings are individually controlled by a switching controller. One of each pair of the switching transistors belongs to a first transistor group that is connected to a positive terminal of the dc power source and the other belongs to a second transistor group that is connected to a negative terminal of the dc power source. The stopping method comprises the steps of simultaneously turning off all of the three pairs of the switching transistors so as to shut off the 3-phase dc power provided to the motor, maintaining all of the three pairs of the switching transistors in the off state for a first time period that is less than one second, simultaneously turning on the switching transistors of the second group at the end of the first time period so that all terminals of the 3-phase exciter windings are short-circuited with one another, and maintaining the switching transistors of the second group for a second time period that is greater than three seconds while the switching transistors of the first group are still in the off state.
