    摘要: A DC power supply apparatus includes a rectifier circuit for rectifying an input AC voltage to develop a rectified voltage between two output terminals thereof. First and second smoothing capacitors are connected in series between the output terminals of the rectifier circuit. First and second voltages developed across the first and second capacitors are applied to first and second inverters which convert the applied voltages to high-frequency voltages, which, in turn, are applied to a transformer. The transformer develops a transformed high-frequency voltage which is converted to a DC voltage by a converter. A voltage detector detects the first and second voltages, and the detected first and second voltages are compared in a microprocessor. An inverter control circuit controls the first and second inverters in accordance with the result of comparison, in a sense to make the voltages across the first and second smoothing capacitors equal.

    摘要: An arc welder includes an inverter for converting a DC voltage to a RF voltage which, then, is rectified by a rectifier. The output of the rectifier is smoothed by a DC reactor. A RF generator provides RF current to flow between a workpiece and a main electrode of the welder forming a welder load, which initiates arcing between the workpiece and the main electrode. Initiation of arcing causes output current from the DC reactor to be supplied to the welder load, so that steady-state arcing is established. The DC reactor has a relatively small inductance which permit the output current from the DC reactor to reach a value required for establishing the steady-state arcing within a time period during which the RF generator provides RF current. The RF voltage from the inverter has a relatively high frequency so that the output current from the DC reactor can sustain the steady-state arcing.

    摘要: An AC voltage applied among power input supply terminals is rectified by a rectifier, and the rectified voltage is adapted to be reduced in a voltage-reducing converter with a switch connected in parallel with it. A switching circuit connect smoothing capacitors in series or parallel to the voltage-reducing converter. Inverters are connected in parallel with the respective smoothing capacitors. The output voltages of the inverters are voltage-transformed by transformers. The transformed voltages from the transformers are converted to DC voltages by converters. A control unit renders the voltage-reducing converter operative and causes the switching circuit to connect the smoothing capacitors in series when a third AC voltage is applied among the power supply input terminals. When a second AC voltage lower than the third AC voltage is applied among the power supply input terminals, the control unit causes the switch connected in parallel with the voltage-reducing converter to be closed and causes the switching circuit to connect the smoothing capacitors in series. If a first AC voltage about one-half as high as the second AC voltage is applied, the control unit causes the switch to be closed and causes the switching circuit to connect the smoothing capacitors in parallel.

    摘要: An arc welder provided with a low frequency square waveform a.c. power supply as a main power supply for welding in order to improve its power of recovering an arc which may go out at the time of polarity transition of a welding load and an auxiliary d.c. power supply for super-posing its output upon the input of the main power supply to further improve the recovering power, in which a switching element is inserted in a supply path of the output of the auxiliary d.c. power supply and the switching element is put in conduction by a suitable control device only for a necessary shortest arc recovery time in order to reduce a power loss due to continuous supply of the auxiliary d.c. output. The welder may include a diode which is put in conduction in response to an excessive transient voltage induced at the input of an invertor of the main power supply at the time of polarity transition of the welding load and, in order to prevent excessive charge of the capacitor in this case, the conduction time of the switching element may be extended to discharge an excess charge through the switching element to the invertor when a voltage across the capacitor exceeds a predetermined value.
