摘要:
An electronic control and regulating system for AC-operated appliances, especially universal motors and with symmetrical phase control. The control circuit includes among other things an inductive current-voltage converter 9, the primary side 8 of which is connected to the load current circuit and in which, in addition to the converter function, the inductivity of the secondary winding 10 is used and becomes a component of a resonant circuit 20 which is tuned approximately to the frequency of the AC voltage source. The feedback variable of the control system is formed by the resonant circuit voltage, i.e. the resonant circuit impedance, which depends not only on the magnitude of the load current but also on the phase angle of the load current. This quasi-resonance effect makes possible a direct influence of the trigger circuit which consists customarily of a trigger capacitor 13, a load resistor 11 and a trigger diode 15 and is possible without excessive use of additional circuit elements.
摘要:
To detect if a tool bit, such as a drill, a saw blade, or the like, upon being worked into a wall, meets a metallic obstruction, such as a conduit, reinforcement rod, hydraulic pipe or the like, an alternating voltage, preferably between 2 and 20 kHz, is coupled through a coupling capacitor (9) to the tool bit, and current flow to the tool bit is detected by a current measurement stage (10; 31, 32) to disconnect energy to the drive motor (5), for example by disabling firing of a thyristor (15), or closing a valve of a compressed-air tool. The coupling capacitor should have a capacity small enough to provide high impedance to network power frequency, and to insure a substantial change in current being supplied to the tool bit holder, typically a chuck, if the tool bit meets a metallic object in the wall. The a-c supply circuit can be formed as part of a trigger circuit for the thyristor, by pulse-energizing a trigger diode (28) upon repetitive charge of a capacitor (26) through a charging network (22, 23, 24, 25).
摘要:
Thermal overload of a motor is avoided by measuring temperature and, when a limit temperature is exceeded, reducing the phase "window" within each power cycle during which the motor is energized. The limit temperature is sensed by a temperature sensor which is warmed either by heat conduction through a cooling body or by an air stream from the motor. The overload protection apparatus requires no measuring resistance in the load circuit.
摘要:
A transformer having a secondary winding that delivers a regulating magnitude to a speed regulator circuit that approaches zero as the speed approaches the speed setting, is provided with two primary windings wound and connected so that they oppose each other in operation. The first is the conventional primary winding in series with the universal motor of which the speed is being controlled (as by a conduction phase angle control of the input voltage) while the second primary winding is in series with a resistance and, in some cases, also with a capacitor, with this series combination being connected in parallel with the armature winding of the motor for the best regulation, or in parallel with the motor as a whole if it is important to avoid additional internal connections to the motor. The capacitor is used to compensate for the inductive reactance of the second primary winding in cases in which that reactance is not negligible. A second capacitor across the secondary filters out commution "hash."
