  • D.C. impulse arc welder employing thyristors
    Patent number: 4628427
    Abstract: Apparatus for producing an impulse welding current which can be used in shielded-arc welding. The apparatus includes a thyristor connector in a series circuit to a primary winding of an impulse transformer and a second thyristor and a compacitor, the secondary winding of the impulse transformer being connected to a diode to the welding arc. The apparatus increases the coefficient of the impulse welding current and reduces the steepness of the positive fronts of the voltage imposed upon the thyristors.
