  • Patent number: 10804809
    Abstract: A power converter apparatus includes a plurality of inverters where each inverter receives power from a separate DC voltage source. The apparatus includes a magnetic structure. The magnetic structure includes a primary winding for each inverter, where each primary winding is connected to an output a corresponding inverter and each primary winding is coupled to a magnetic core, and a single secondary winding coupled to one or more magnetic cores to which each primary winding is coupled. The apparatus includes a rectifier that receives an AC waveform from the secondary winding and that rectifies the AC waveform and is connected to a load at output terminals. The secondary winding includes a secondary bus and the one or more magnetic cores of the magnetic structure that are arranged to provide a pathway for the secondary winding that minimizes a length of the secondary winding.
