Abstract: An uninterruptible power supply includes a main uninterruptible power supply unit including a converter, an inverter, and a battery, as well as an input transformer which is arranged between an AC power supply and the converter and transforms the AC voltage from the AC power supply. The uninterruptible power supply further includes a DC component extraction unit that extracts a DC component from current flowing between the AC power supply and the converter, as well as a CPU which, when the DC component extracted by the DC component extraction unit is greater than a threshold current, stops operation of the converter and causes DC voltage from the battery to be supplied to the inverter.

Abstract: An electric power supply system for driving an electric rotating machine has a generator supplied with driving power from an engine to generate alternating-current electric power and a matrix converter as an alternating-current to alternating-current direct converter supplied with the alternating-current electric power to output arbitrary alternating-current electric power. By driving a motor with the alternating-current electric power supplied from the matrix converter, only one time electric power conversion is carried out to provide high efficiency in the whole system. In addition, electric power loss can be reduced so as to enhance a motor output when the system is applied to a vehicle power supply system.

Abstract: An ECU serving as a transmission side and an ECU serving as a reception side are coupled to each other through communication lines and junction connectors. A diode in which a direction directed from a negative-side output terminal of the ECU serving as the transmission side to a positive-side output terminal thereof becomes a forward direction is provided between the positive-side output terminal and the negative-side output terminal.

Abstract: A power converter directly converting an AC voltage into an AC voltage of any desired magnitude and frequency by turning bidirectional switches ON and OFF without employing any energy buffer, where the peak values of output phase voltage command values are limited, to bring the amplitude of an output line voltage to, at most, 0.866 times the amplitude of the supply line voltages. By way of example, the peak-value limit of the output phase voltage command values is set so that the maximum value of the output phase voltage command values becomes, at most, 0.75 times the maximum value of supply phase voltages, while the minimum value thereof becomes, at least, 0.75 times the minimum value of the supply phase voltages. This control method for the direct power converter dispenses with an expensive dedicated motor, and permits a reduction in cost of the control apparatus as a whole.

This apparatus can decrease the output voltage distortion and low frequency torque pulsation and can suppress the increase of an output current without weakening a magnetic flux, even when the converter is operated in an overmodulation region.

Abstract: A power distributing apparatus is provided to reduce the number of voltage converters. The power distributing apparatus 1 includes a power source part 4 for supplying a power of 42V, an electrical connection box 7 connected with the part 4 through a power line 5, and a plurality of electronic control units 8a, 8b . . . , 8n. The electrical connection box 7 has a regular-supply converter 9 to convert a high voltage of 42V to an intermediate voltage higher than a load voltage of 5V. The regular-supply converter 9 can exhibit a high conversion efficiency when the apparatus is operated under high load. Each of the electronic control units 8a, 8b . . . , 8n has a series regulator 14 to convert the intermediate voltage to the load voltage. Owing to the supply of voltage higher than the load voltage by the regular-supply converter 9, there is no need to consider inconvenience due to voltage drop between the converter and a remote load.
