Patent number: 6292036Abstract: A drive circuit for controlling at least one device having first and second electromagnetically operable actuators, the drive circuit having first and second terminals for connection to a voltage supply and comprising a first controllable switch in connection with one side of the actuators and the first terminal. Each actuator has an associated second controllable switch in connection with the other side of the respective actuator, whereby opening and closing of the first and second switches serves to control selection and actuation of the actuators. The circuit further comprises a sensor arrangement for providing independent sensing of the current flowing through each of the actuators, each actuator having an associated diode in connection with the respective second controllable switch to ensure current flows through the sensor arrangement when the first controllable switch is opened and the second controllable switch is closed.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2000Date of Patent: September 18, 2001Assignee: Delphi Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Michael Anthony Archer

Patent number: 5940262Abstract: A control circuit for an electromagnetically operable fuel control valve of a vehicle engine includes a tank capacitor which upon closure of first and second controllable switches supplies current to the winding of the valve to achieve a high rate of rise of current in the winding and rapid operation of the valve. Following operation of the valve it is maintained in its operated state by current chopping action, the current rise being achieved by drawing current from a low voltage source through a third controllable switch. The current fall is at a high rate and the resultant high voltage induced in the winding is utilized to recharge the tank capacitor.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 1997Date of Patent: August 17, 1999Assignee: Lucas Industries public limited companyInventor: Michael Anthony Archer
