Patents by Inventor James Lobsinger

James Lobsinger has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8542469
    Abstract: A protected electrical power system may comprise a feeder between a power source and an electrical load. A first current transformer may be positioned on the feeder in a first location. The first current transformer may have a shunt resistor electrically connected across its winding. A second current transformer may be positioned at a second location on the feeder. A control unit may be interposed between the first and second current transformers and may be interconnected with the first and second current transformers on current-monitoring loops independent from the feeder. The control unit may be responsive to a predetermined differential in feeder (DF) current between the first and second current transformers to disconnect the power source from the electrical load. The control unit may have a compensation network for reducing DF error resulting from presence of the shunt resistor in the first current transformer.

  • Patent number: 5347236
    Abstract: A modulator for providing modulating voltages across the anode and cathode of a negatively pulsed magnetron includes a switch which, when activated, couples the modulating voltage source to the cathode terminal, a current regulator which maintains a constant current flow through the anode and cathode when the modulating voltage is applied, and a voltage control circuit that reduces an excessive time rate of voltage change across the switch caused by arcing across the anode-cathode gap. A filament power supply is provided which supplies filament current while isolating the modulating voltage at the cathode from high voltage sensitive components in the filament power supply.
