  • Patent number: 9325271
    Abstract: In a parallel running control apparatus for an inverter generator A having a first, second and third inverters each connected to three windings wound around an alternator driven by an engine and converts alternating current outputted therefrom to direct/alternating current to output alternating current, and first, second and third controllers to control turning ON/OFF of the switching elements, and the inverter generator A is configured to run in parallel with at least one inverter generator B which is configured to be same as the inverter generator A to output a three-phase alternating current.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8638003
    Abstract: In an inverter generator having a first, second and third inverters, a first, second and third controllers adapted to control turning ON/OFF of switching elements thereof and to operate the first inverter as a master inverter and the second and third inverters as slave inverters, a three-phase output terminal, a single-phase output terminal, and an engine control section adapted to send an output of a selector switch to the first controller and so on, thereby outputting three-phase or single-phase AC through control of turning ON/OFF of the switching elements, so that the outputs from the first, second and third inverters become in the three-phase or single-phase AC in response to the output of the selector switch making the output from the first inverter as a reference.
