  • Patent number: 11804328
    Abstract: The present invention provides an inductance coil comprising a magnetic core and a coil, wherein the coil is formed by winding a flat wire, and the flat surface of the wire is perpendicular to the axis around which the coil is wound. The coil is wrapped with an insulating adhesive tape and the tape is wound on the wire around an axis which is substantially in line with the direction along which the wire forming the coil extends, so as to form an isolation layer on the surface of the coil. Additionally, the present invention provides an electromagnetic device including the above inductance coil.

  • Patent number: 9876461
    Abstract: A control and protection apparatus for an electric motor, comprising an inverter (3), a first converter (1), a temperature detection apparatus (7), and a second converter (2). The first converter (1) is used for generating, on the basis of an input signal, a first control signal to control working of the inverter (3). The temperature detection apparatus (7) is used for detecting the temperature of the electric motor (4) and for acquiring a temperature signal. The second converter (2) is used for generating a second control signal on the basis of the temperature signal detected and for providing the second control signal to the inverter (3). The inverter (3) is used for controlling wording of the electric motor (4) on the basis of the first control signal and of the second control signal. The control and protection apparatus for the electric motor is low in costs and high in safety and reliability.

  • Patent number: 9166469
    Abstract: A system for optimizing switching dead-time includes a power converter that includes a half-bridge circuit comprising a first switch coupled in series with a second switch, first and second state detection circuits respectively coupled to the first and second switches and configured to respectively detect an activation state of the first and second switches. First and second switch control circuits coupled respectively to the first and second switches are configured to respectively toggle the first and second switches between an activate state and a deactivated state. The first switch control circuit includes a first input configured to receive an activation signal from the second state detection circuit indicative of the activation state of the second switch, and the second switch control circuit includes a first input configured to receive an activation signal from the first state detection circuit indicative of the activation state of the first switch.
