    摘要: A waveform synthesizer for generating single or poly-phase waveforms of selected wave shape and frequency for driving AC machinery including, for example, single or poly-phase induction, synchronous or other type motors or the like, includes a plurality of controllable power-switching device pairs for selectively switching power from an oppositely poled DC source to the corresponding power utilizing circuits of the driven device. The switching device pairs are controlled to provide switched pulses of selected widths, spacings, and repetition rates to generate the desired current waveform. The power-switching device pairs are selectively switched by a control circuit that includes a microprocessor-controlled memory that is divided into P addressable pages with each page including S sequentially accessible memory locations containing the switching device pairs control information necessary to synthesize the desired waveform. The microprocessor is adapted to select one of the P available pages in response to prestored instructions, user input information, or condition-responsive transducer or similar information and, after selecting the desired page P, to control a presettable address counter to sequentially access the S memory locations of the selected page P at a selected access rate and to gate the so-accessed switching information to the power-switching device pairs to thereby synthesize the desired waveform.

    摘要: The inverter may be single phase with one inverter leg or N-phase with N inverter legs for connection across a DC source. Each leg includes a pair of series connected thyristors with a terminal between the thyristors for connection to a load. In addition, each thyristor has a diode connected in reverse polarity across it. A commutation circuit which includes an inductor in series with the inverter legs and a capacitor in parallel with the inductor and the inverter legs, provides a commutation pulse to turn off the thyristors in each leg. A further isolating inductor is connected at the DC power input to the inverter, and a reverse polarity feedback diode may be connected across it.

    摘要: An isolated battery charger suitable for charging lead-acid batteries includes a high-frequency power conditioner that rectifies source current to a DC value and chops the current at a comparatively high frequency, e.g., 25 KHz, using a pair of MOSFET switches (138 and 140) to provide power pulses to the primary of a step-down transformer (T.sub.1). The output of the step-down transformer (T.sub.1) is presented to an enhancement mode MOSFET (206) in series circuit with the battery (B) to be charged with the gate bias of the MOSFET controlled in response to the sensed voltage of the battery to provide current to the battery as a function of its charge. Control circuitry is provided to limit charging to a small `trickle` level in the event the battery (B) is fully discharged to increase its charge level prior to initiating the full charge current. The provision of a voltage converter (100) operating at a relatively high frequency allows use of a lightweight and compact transformer (T.sub.1) that nonetheless provides a high current for charging.

    摘要: A corded/cordless dual-mode power-operated device, such as a household vacuum cleaner, can be operated in corded mode from a conventional power source and in a cordless mode using energy provided from an internal rechargable battery and which includes an internal battery charger for recharging the battery when the device is in its corded mode. The internal charger includes a voltage converter that converts input source current to a relatively high DC current that is chopped at a comparatively high frequency, e.g., 25 KHz, by switching devices. The high-frequency, high voltage current is presented to a step-down transformer with the stepped-down output rectified to provide a low-voltage DC suitable for recharging the internal battery when the device is in its corded mode. The voltage converter advantageously provides for the high efficiency conversion of the input energy to meet the charging current demands of the internal battery in a physically compact device.

    摘要: A battery charger 10 includes a capacitor 20 which establishes a level of current sufficient to fast charge in one-hour a battery 18 having from one to twenty cells. An SCR 16 is controlled by a timer 42 to initially delay the supply of current while determining whether the battery 18 is hot or cool. If battery 18 is cool, charger 10 proceeds to fast charge the battery. After battery 18 is fully charged, the battery heats to a temperature where a NTC thermistor 58 responds to trigger a second timer 52 which controls SCR 16 to stop the fast charging operation. Charger 10 is then controlled to prevent the charger from thereafter re-entering a fast charge mode.If battery 18 is initially hot, charger 10 is controlled to further delay the initiation of a fast charge operation until the battery cools to or below the charge-start temperature.A second NTC thermistor 90 is provided to compensate for the potential effect on the operation of thermistor 58 in response to temperature levels emanating from any environment other than from battery 18.

    摘要: A pulsating D.C. voltage is developed by a rectifier 86 and is filtered by a capacitor 100 to facilitate application of a relatively smooth, enhanced D.C. voltage to a motor 106.The charged voltage of capacitor 100 is applied across a series circuit which includes a rheostat 118, a resistor 126 and motor 106. When the CEMF of motor 106 drops as a result of a decrease in motor speed, a disc 122 is biased through the voltage appearing across rheostat 118 and resistor 126 to cause an SCR 116 to fire. When SCR 116 fires, the voltage of capacitor 100 supplies a boost of power to motor 106 to overcome the decrease in motor speed.A circuit 212 prevents an overspeed of motor 106 from occurring while braking circuits 264, 266 and 268 provide for a dynamic braking effect when the motor is a universal motor.

    摘要: A switching power converter employing a novel lossless zero-voltage-switching passive snubber network having a power range of up to 5 KW is presented. The passive snubber network improves efficiency, power density, and transient performance, reduces switching losses and EMI, and permits fixed frequency operation of the switching power converter. The passive snubber network also reduces and/or eliminates large peak currents and reverse recovery current spikes normally seen in conventional switching power converters. The proposed passive snubber network may be used in various switching power converter topologies such as boost, buck, balanced, and flyback power converters.
