Abstract:
The invention relates to a three-phase inverter producing a stepped voltage between each two output terminals which approximates the sinusoidal form. The apparatus includes two three-phase inverter systems of the type comprising pairs of parallel arranged controllable rectifiers and three transformers each having a primary winding and two secondary windings.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a motor control which comprises a D.C. voltage regulator and an inverted converter. The voltage regulator has a periodically actuatable switch and filter means are provided between the voltage regulator and the converter for smoothing the voltage from the regulator. A series arranged resistor and condenser are disposed in parallel to the condenser of the filter means for damping pulsations in the voltage regulator output which cause motor torque fluctuations.
Abstract:
A wave generator having an oscillator and a flip-flop generating two square waves of constant frequency and one of which is varied in amplitude in dependence upon the varying amplitude of a control signal received in a control circuit and the other of which is limited in amplitude by a limiter. The two square waves are applied to and added in a summing circuit and integrated in a differentiating amplifier with a limiter and emitter follower feedback circuit.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a control system for an alternating current motor such as a polyphase induction motor. The control system includes a DC to AC inverter in combination with voltage and frequency regulators with the voltage and frequency being dependent upon each other. Control means are provided which sense the inverter current and translate the data sensed into two voltages which are separately subtracted from the output of the voltage regulator to provide two corrected voltages for regulating the voltage regulator and the frequency regulator.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a step switch assembly which switches power on and off in a stepwise manner in dependence upon the upper and lower limiting values of a control signal. The switch assembly may be used for operating in a stepwise manner a bank of units such as motors wherein each motor, or group of motors, represents a portion or part of the total available capacity of a system such as air conditioning system. The step switch assembly includes a reversible counter, a transmitter for sending digital impulses to the counter, and power stages which are switchable on and off in dependence upon information stored at the counter output points.
