Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The converter comprises an inverter and a conversion unit in which a transformer powers a controlled rectifier formed by saturable inductors and power diodes. According to the invention, a series reactive circuit associated with the transformer co-operates with the controlled rectifier for the phase displacement of the voltage applied at the primary of the transformer in relation to the current flowing therethrough. The phase displacement is regulated by a control voltage as a function of the variations in the output voltage of the converter.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A DC-DC converter intended to convert the electricity provided by an energy source delivering a first direct voltage and a first direct current having first respective values into output energy at a second direct voltage and a second direct current having second respective values, said converter including: an inverter powered by said energy source and intended to create alternative energy at a third voltage and with a third current, a conversion unit…
