  • Publication number: 20100176765
    Abstract: It is an object to effectively output electrical energy of a storage battery to an electrical power system serving as a whole distributed power supply system by effectively utilizing the electrical energy within a charging ratio range that does not cause overcharging or overdischarging of the storage battery. In a hybrid distributed power supply system, the target supply electrical power is set based on the electrical power generation output of the electrical power generator and the charging state of the storage battery, and the target supply electrical power is restricted within a predetermined permissible supply electrical power range when the target supply electrical power deviates from the predetermined permissible supply electrical power range.

  • Patent number: 7319295
    Abstract: A radio frequency power supply structure and a plasma CVD device comprising the same are provided in which reflection of radio frequency power at a connecting portion where an RF cable connects to an electrode is reduced so that incidence of the radio frequency power into the electrode increases. In the radio frequency power supply structure for use in a device generating plasma by charging a plate-like electrode with a radio frequency power, the radio frequency power supply structure supplying the electrode with the radio frequency power from an RF cable, the RF cable is positioned on an extended plane of a plane formed by the electrode to connect to the electrode at a connecting portion provided on an end peripheral portion of the electrode. The RF cable connects to the electrode substantially in the same plane as the plane formed by the electrode.

  • Patent number: 6750629
    Abstract: A motor driving system for driving an induction motor with a rotation frequency detector. The induction motor drives a load, and the rotation frequency detector detects a rotation frequency of the induction motor. The motor driving system includes a variable speed driving unit and an inverter control unit. The variable speed driving unit is connected to the induction motor and has a capacitance at output. The variable speed driving unit rectifies first 3-phase AC power to produce DC power, and converts the DC power into second 3-phase AC power with a frequency, and drives the induction motor with the second 3-phase AC power. The inverter control unit generates a frequency instruction and a temporary current instruction based on the detected rotation frequency and a rotation frequency instruction at least.

  • Patent number: 6594162
    Abstract: The inverter device includes an inverse conversion circuit which converts a supplied direct-current electricity into a alternating-current electricity having a predetermined frequency, and is designed to drive a motor for a rotary machine, at various speeds, in which the switching control of the inverse conversion circuit is performed by a digital processor. In this inverter device, a timer interrupt process having an independent constant processing cycle which is not directly related to the processing cycle of the system control in the digital processor is assigned. In the timer interrupt process, whether or not switching of the inverse conversion circuit is required is determined, and the switching control is carried out on the basis of the determination.

  • Patent number: 6344701
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for treating exhaust gases. In this apparatus, a plurality of stages of reactor chambers (R1, R2, . . . Rn) are connected in series in the direction of an exhaust gas flow. Further, high-voltage power supplies (V1, V2, . . . and Vn) are connected to the reactor chambers (R1, R2, . . . and Rn), respectively. Moreover, in each of these reactor chambers, a streamer discharger plasma is generated. Furthermore, the more downstream a reactor chamber of a stage is placed, the lower energy to be cast into the reactor chamber becomes. The density of electrons generated in a gas decomposition unit is high in a portion thereof on the upstream side of the exhaust gas flow and the electron density is low in a portion thereof on the downstream side. Additionally, the present invention further provides a pulse generator in which a high voltage, which is an output voltage of a D.C.
