Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are directed to a method for controlling a switching branch of a three-level converter to enter a stop state. The switching branch including a first semiconductor switch and a second semiconductor switch, a first diode and a second diode, a third semiconductor switch and a fourth semiconductor switch, a third diode, and a fourth diode, a fifth semiconductor switch and a sixth semiconductor switch, a fifth diode, and a sixth diode, and a manner of controlling the semiconductor switches. When the switching branch is set to enter a stop state, current flowing in a main circuit of the switching branch is transferred in a controlled manner to diodes that conduct the current, when all the semiconductor switches of the main circuit of the converter are turned OFF.
Abstract:
A movable contact for a rotary switch is provided. The movable contact includes first and second contacts for contacting a stationary contact, where the first and second contacts are arranged at a distance from each other for receiving the stationary contact between the first and second contacts. The first contact is a straight contact blade for contacting stationary contacts at both ends of the blade. The second contact is a spring element configured to bend when the stationary contact is placed between the first contact and the second contact, and to cause a pressing force to the stationary contact to press the stationary contact against the first contact after the stationary contact has been placed between the first contact and the second contact.
Abstract:
A method and arrangement are provided for reducing the amount of condensed moisture inside an enclosure which encloses at least one piece of electrical equipment which is configured to receive electric power from outside the enclosure in a first electrical magnitude range (0 . . . maxinput) and to feed electric power to outside the enclosure in a second electrical magnitude range (minoutput . . . maxoutput). Electric power received on at least one portion (a, b, c) of the first electrical magnitude range (0 . . . maxinput) being outside the second electrical magnitude range (minoutput . . . maxoutput) is utilized for heating the condensed moisture for exhaustion thereof.
Abstract:
A rotary switch module includes a first stationary contact, a second stationary contact, and a movable contact for making an electrical connection between the first stationary contact and the second stationary contact. A rotary actuator is provided for rotating the movable contact, the rotary actuator having on its surface a first indication indicating an open position of the switch, and a second indication indicating a closed position of the switch. A first window indicates the first indication, and a second window separate from the first window indicates the second indication.
Abstract:
A propulsion unit is disclosed with a hollow strut having an upper portion with an upper end portion passing through a passage (P1) formed between a first outer bottom and a second inner bottom in a vessel. The upper end portion is rotatably supported with a slewing bearing and sealed with a slewing seal towards the vessel. A cooling arrangement includes a cooling air duct system, at least one fan and at least one cooling unit. The slewing seal can include an upper slewing seal and a lower slewing seal at a vertical distance (H1) from each other with a space formed between the slewing seals. The upper end portion has openings (O1) into the space between the slewing seals. A first cooling air duct is directed to this space, whereby cooling air (L1) can be circulated through the first cooling air duct (400) into the space and through the openings (O1) in the upper end portion to the interior of the strut, or return air (L2) can be circulated from the strut in an opposite direction.
Abstract:
A method for operating a winch and a winch having a winch drum for spooling a spoolable medium, wherein the winch drum is rotatable about a first axis, a guiding member for guiding the spoolable medium, wherein the guiding member is movable along a second axis between two end positions, and an electric drive having a first electric motor for driving the guiding member towards one of the two end positions during spooling in or spooling out of the spoolable medium. The electric drive is configured to change the driving direction of the guiding member when a monitored torque of the first electric motor, or a quantity indicative thereof, exceeds a predetermined threshold.
