Frequency multiplier

Claim 1

A STATIC FREQUENCY MULTIPLIER FOR CONVERTING ALTERNATING CURRENT HAVING A PREDETERMINED FREQUENCY FROM A THREE-PHASE SOURCE TO SINGLE PHASE ALTERNATING CURRENT HAVING A FREQUENCY THREE TIMES SAID PREDETERMINED FREQUENCY COMPRISING A TRANSFORMER MEANS HAVING THREE PRIMARY PHASE WINDINGS CONNECTED IN CIRCUIT RELATION WITH SAID SOURCE AND THREE SECONDARY PHASE WINDINGS CONNECTED IN SERIES CIRCUIT RELATION WITH ONE ANOTHER TO PROVIDE A SINGLE PHASE ALTERNATING OUTPUT CURRENT, INDUCTIVE REACTANCE MEANS ASSOCIATED WITH AND CONNECTED IN SERIES CIRCUIT RELATION WITH EACH OF SAID PRIMARY WINDING BETWEEN SAID SOURCE AND SAID PRIMARY WINDINGS FOR LIMITING INRUSH CURRENTS WHEN SAID PRIMARY WINDING ARE ENERGIZED FROM SAID SOURCE, THREE-PHASE CIRCUIT MEANS FOR AT LEAST PARTIALLY COMPENSATING FOR THE POWER FACTOR OF SAID TRANSFORMER AND REACTANCE MEANS, SAID CIRCUIT MEANS BEING DELTA CONNECTED IN PHASE-TO-PHASE CIRCUIT RELATION BETWEEN SAID SOURCE AND SAID PRIMARY WINDINGS, THE RESONANT FREQUENCY OF SAID CIRCUIT MEANS BEING SLIGHTLY LESS THAN THE FIFTH HARMONIC OF SAID PREDETERMINED FREQUENCY EACH PHASE OF SAID CIRCUIT MEANS COMPRISING A CAPACITOR AND AN INDUCTIVE REACTANCE CONNECTED IN SERIES CIRCUIT RELATIONSHIP, AND REACTANCE MEANS CONNECTED IN SERIES CIRCUIT RELATION WITH EACH OF THE PRIMARY WINDINGS BETWEEN THE CIRCUIT MEANS AND THE PRIMARY WINDINGS.
