  • Patent number: 9301346
    Abstract: A power supply for a high frequency heating is provided. When processes from a non-oscillation to an oscillation of a magnetron are finely classified, the non-oscillation (a start mode), the oscillation (a start mode), and the oscillation (a steady mode) are obtained. A problem resides in an unstable state immediately after the oscillation. When a PWM setting value at this time is set to a value lower than a PWM setting value in the steady mode, even if the PWM setting value during the steady mode is set to a maximum output value, the input current is not controlled to a large current including the over-shoot immediately after the oscillation. After the magnetron shifts to a stable state, the PWM setting value shifts to a PWM setting value of an actual steady mode, so that the over-shoot of the input current can be suppressed as much as possible.

  • Patent number: 9075418
    Abstract: A damping device includes a calculator calculating a pseudo vibration to cancel a source vibration transmitted from a vibration source to a position to be damped, using an adaptive control algorithm. The canceling vibration is generated according to the pseudo vibration. A vibration detector detects an error vibration remaining at the position. The adaptive control algorithm is adapted by learning to reduce the error vibration. A frequency recognizer recognizes a frequency of the source vibration from a signal related to the vibration source. The frequency of the vibration is used to determine a frequency of the pseudo vibration. A phase difference identifier identifies a phase difference between the error vibration and the canceling vibration according to the pseudo vibration, and a frequency corrector corrects, according to the phase difference, the frequency of the vibration to eliminate the phase difference.
