Circuit overload protector

Claim 1

AN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT OVERLOAD PROTECTOR COMPRISING IN COMBINATION, AN A.C. SIGNAL SOURCE, A FIRST TRANSFORMER INCORPORATING A PRIMARY WINDING HAVING A PAIR OF TERMINALS AND A SECONDARY WINDING HAVING A PAIR OF TERMINALS, SAID PAIR OF TERMINALS OF THE PRIMARY WINDING OF SAID FIRST TRANSFORMER COUPLED TO THE OUTPUTS OF SAID A.C. SIGNAL SOURCE, SAID PAIR OF TERMINALS OF THE PRIMARY WINDING OF SAID SECOND TRANSFORMER EFFECTIVELY COUPLED TO SAID PAIR OF TERMINALS OF THE SECONDARY WINDING OF SAID FIRST TRANSFORMER, AN ELECTRICAL LOAD HAVING A AIR OF INPUTS RESPECTIVELY CONNECTED TO SAID PAIR OF TERMINALS OF THE SECONDARY WINDING OF SAID SECONDARY TRANSFORMER, MEANS INTERPOSED BETWEEN SAID A.C. SIGNAL SOURCE AND SAID ELECTRICAL LOAD FOR SENSING THE CURRENT FLOWING THEREBETWEEN, A PAIR OF SERIES CONNECTED CAPACITORS CONNECTED BETWEEN ONE OF THE TERMINALS OF THE SECONDARY WINDING OF SAID FIRST TRANSFORMER AND ONE OF THE TERMINALS OF THE PRIMARY WINDING OF SAID SECOND TRANSFORMER, AND MEANS CONNECTED TO SAID CURRENT SENSING MEANS AND BETWEEN THE JUNCTION OF SAID SERIES CONNECTED CAPACITORS AND THE OTHER INTERCONNECTED TERMINALS OF THE SECONDARY AND PRIMARY WINDINGS OF SAID FIRST AND SECOND TRANSFORMERS FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY SHORTING OUT THE SECONDARY WINDING OF SAID FIRST TRANSFORMER AND THE PRIMARY WINDING OF SAID SECOND TRANSFORMER WHEN THE CURRENT SENSED BY SAID CURRENT SENSING MEANS EXCEEDS A PREDETERMINED VALUE.
