Abstract
A motor overload protecting method includes (a) detecting an instantaneous motor current value in real-time, calculating a current integral value in each of a corresponding integral period, and resetting the current integral value to 0 at an end of the integral period, (b) obtaining an overload coefficient according to the current integral value, which is greater than or equal to 0 and less than 1 when the current integral value is greater than or equal to a maximum motor current value, and is equal to 1 when the current integral value is less than the maximum motor current value, wherein the maximum motor current value is a maximum current integral value when the motor is in a non-overload condition; and (c) multiplying the instantaneous motor current value by the overload coefficient to obtain a new input current value, and operating the motor according to the new input current value.
