  • Patent number: 11848624
    Abstract: This invention proposes a single-vector-based finite control set model predictive control for two parallel power converters, which adopts a centralized control structure to achieve accurate control of overall performance. It establishes predictive models for line currents and three phase-circulating currents and constructs a novel cost function that uses these currents as performance indices to implement the predictive control algorithm based on the proposed predictive models. The invention proposes dynamic weighting coefficients and adjustment principles to improve system control performance. A finite set output signal matrix containing important characteristic information of all alternative vectors is constructed to avoid redundant calculations in each control horizon, reducing computation time during practical implementation.

    Abstract: An error-unlocking protection structure for heat dissipation base seat includes a heat dissipation base seat, an operation member and a cover body. The operation member has a cam section pivotally connected with the connection section disposed on the heat dissipation base seat. A linking member is disposed between the cover body and the operation member and respectively connected with the cover body and the cam section. When operating the operation member, the cam section is forced to press the heat dissipation base seat and make the heat dissipation base seat tightly attached to the heat generation component and located thereon. At the same time, the linking member is driven to horizontally move the cover body relative to the heat dissipation base seat, whereby the cover body shields locking members to prevent the heat dissipation base seat from being uninstalled from the heat generation component by error.
