Abstract

958, 970. Automatic voltage control systems. ATELIERS DES CHARMILLES S.A. Sept. 12, 1960 [Sept.12, 1959], No. 31354/60. Heading G2R. The supply system for an electrolytic cutter maintains constant the average voltage between the cutter and the workpiece, the time constants of the measuring circuit being chosen to reduce voltage surges. Direct current is supplied by transformer 1 and rectifier 10, 11 to the rotating cutter 12, and workpiece 13,which latter forms the anode. A portion of the cutter/workpiece voltage, tapped off coarse and fine potential dividers 19 and P, and a reference voltage obtained across a Zener diode 21 are applied to a transistor comparator T1, T2. Any unbalance controls a power transistor T3 which controls a saturable reactor L1 L2 in series with the supply to the transformer 1. The saturable reactor may be replaced by paralleled power transistors on the D.C. side of the supply. The cutter/workpiece voltage signal charges a capacitor C1 through parts of the potential divider resistors R7 when the signal is greater than the reference voltage. The time constant is made slightly less than the minimum period of uninterrupted cutting. The cutting is frequently interrupted by short circuits. The diode 20 prevents the capacitor C1 from discharging through R7 &c., during a short circuit and so it discharges through R11. The time constant of Cl,R11 is made longer than the maximum period of short circuit so that the system does not respond to changes in cutter/- workpiece voltage due to short circuits.
