  • Patent number: 9647568
    Abstract: Methods and systems for bi-directional multi-port power conversion systems and applications are disclosed. In some sample embodiments, current-modulating power converters can be used to provide conversion between synchronous and asynchronous power. In some sample embodiments, current-modulating power converters can perform power conversion can be performed to and from three-phase AC with an active neutral line. In some sample embodiments, current-modulating power converters can convert between synchronous and asynchronous power and also support three-phase AC with active neutral.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20150061569
    Abstract: A car charging station in which battery buffering includes at least approximately as much energy as is required to charge one car rapidly. This is particularly advantageous when a photovoltaic array is connected through a power converter to charge the battery, and also to provide a lower rate of charge directly to the vehicle charge connections. Advantageously, a mains power connection can also be made through yet another port of the same multiport power converter.

  • Patent number: 6789688
    Abstract: A display rack comprises a pair of vertical supports, and a number of shelves which can be placed at various locations on the supports. To accommodate shelves of different widths, the vertical supports are interconnected by diagonal braces whose angle can be changed to alter the spacing between the supports, while maintaining them parallel and vertical.
