20130128913 | ELECTRICALLY POWERED INDUSTRIAL FURNACES HAVING MULTIPLE INDIVIDUALLY CONTROLLABLE POWER SUPPLIES AND SHORTENED CABLING REQUIREMENTS - An electrically powered industrial furnace uses a number of distributed, highly compact power supplies physically located generally immediately adjacent to each of the furnace electrical terminals, so that cabling and bus-bars can essentially be eliminated. In addition, each heating element has its own dedicated and independently controllable power supply which can automatically adjust for varying resistances in the single connected heating element and/or short cabling, to achieve a precisely uniform temperature within the furnace. | 05-23-2013 |
20120314728 | SYSTEM AND METHOD TO DELIVER AND CONTROL POWER TO AN ARC FURNACE - A power supply system for an arc furnace includes a three phase transformer assembly, back to back SCRs coupled between a power source and the three phase transformer assembly primary windings, and three saturable-reactors, coupled between the three phase transformer assembly secondary windings and a load. A controlled DC current source is coupled between a system controller and each of said three saturable-reactors. The system controller is configured for monitoring the power source and an output current at the load, and for controlling the back-to-back SCRs and the current source. | 12-13-2012 |
20120112731 | LOAD SENSING HIGH EFFICIENCY TRANSFORMER ASSEMBLY - A load sensing, high efficiency, modular transformer assembly for use in power distribution networks. The control of each module of the modular assembly of high efficiency transformers results in considerable energy savings when compared to conventional transformers. At least two of the transformers have different efficiencies, one higher than the other, The assembly is controlled according to the requirements of the connected load, with modules being switched in and out of circuit, thereby resulting in a transformer with a higher efficiency than is possible with currently available distribution transformers of equivalent capacity. Connection and disconnection of the transformer modules is accomplished with the use of a purpose designed electronic controller. | 05-10-2012 |
20110260637 | ELECTRONIC METHOD TO IMPROVE THE STARTING CHARACTERISTICS OF DIRECT CURRENT ARC LAMPS - A series connected L-C resonant circuit is connected between a lamp electrode of a xenon arc lamp and chassis ground. The L-C circuit has the ability to store energy as well as act as an oscillator. Energized by an initial high voltage pulse to a xenon arc lamp, the L-C circuit extends the ‘tail’ of the initial high voltage pulse provided to ignite the xenon arc lamp with a train or series of high frequency oscillations, which gradually decay. This resonant ‘tail’ causes the plasma streamer in the lamp to remain in the ionized state for an extended time period, until current ramp to the lamp up occurs, resulting in highly reliable ignition of the xenon arc lamp. | 10-27-2011 |
