  • Patent number: 6717288
    Abstract: An electrical power supply circuit for an automobile vehicle includes a primary stage powered by a main energy source. This primary stage outputs an AC current to a current loop supplying power to at least one primary winding of a transformer. A converter converting AC current to direct current or voltage is associated with the secondary winding of the transformer to create an auxiliary direct current or voltage source.

  • Patent number: 5473227
    Abstract: A self-synchronous electrical motor comprises one rotor, one stator formed by at least one set of four stator windings, at least one electronic switch connected to a stator winding to control the current in the stator winding and a sensor of the angular position of the rotor to control the working of the switch. It also has a rotating commutator device, driven by the rotor, to shunt a current coming from a power supply source into windings selected as a function of the position of the rotor. The commutator device is connected to a first end of each of the windings, the second end of two of the windings being connected to the power supply source and the second end of the other two windings being connected to the electronic switch. Application notably to electrical traction systems for automobiles.
