Phase and frequency conversion system

Claim 1

A SYSTEM FOR CONVERTING ELECTRICAL POWER FROM A MULTIPHASE SOURCE OF KNOWN FREQUENCY INTO A SINGLE PHASE ELECTRICAL POWER, EACH PHASE OF SAID SOURCE INCLUDING A PRIMARY CIRCUIT WITH SAID CIRCUITS JOINED AT A COMMON POINT, SAID SYSTEM COMPRISING, IN COMBINATION: A SATURATING TRANSFORMER FOR EACH PRIMARY CIRCUIT AND HAVING A PRIMARY WINDING IN THAT CIRCUIT; A NON-SATURATING INDUCTANCE IN EACH PRIMARY CIRCUIT, SAID INDUCTANCES EACH FORMING A BLOCKING CHOKE IN SAID PRIMARY CIRCUITS; SECONDARY WINDINGS ON SAID TRANSFORMERS AND IN ELECTRICAL SERIES WITH EACH OTHER TO FORM A SINGLE PHASE OUTPUT CIRCUIT; AND, A SEPARATE WIND BAND WAVE TRAP IN EACH OF SAID PRIMARY CIRCUITS, SAID WAVE TRAPS BEING LOCATED BETWEEN SAID PRIMARY WINDINGS AND SAID INDUCTANCES AND BEING TUNED TO ATTENUATE LOW ORDER HARMONICS OF SAID KNOWN FREQUENCY WHEREBY SAID INDUCTANCES ARE SUBJECTED TO PRIMARILY SAID KNOWN FREQUENCY AND HIGH ORDER HARMONICS THEREOF.

Claim 2

A SYSTEM FOR CONVERTING ELECTRICAL POWER FROM A MULTIPHASE SOURCE OF KNOWN FREQUENCY INTO A SINGLE PHASE ELECTRICAL POWER, EACH PHASE OF SAID SOURCE INCLUDING A PRIMARY CIRCUIT WITH SAID CIRCUITS JOINED AT A COMMON POINT, SAID SYSTEM COMPRISING, IN COMBINATION: A SATURATING TRANSFORMER FOR EACH PRIMARY CIRCUIT AND HAVING A PRIMARY WINDING IN THAT CIRCUIT; A NON-SATURATING INDUCTANCE IN EACH PRIMARY CIRCUIT, SAID INDUCTANCES EACH FORMING A BLOCKING CHOKE IN SAID PRIMARY CIRCUITS; SECONDARY WINDINGS ON SAID TRANSFORMERS AND IN ELECTRICAL SERIES WITH EACH OTHER TO FORM A SINGLE PHASE OUTPUT CIRCUIT; AND, A SEPARATE WIND BAND WAVE TRAP IN EACH OF SAID PRIMARY CIRCUITS, SAID WAVE TRAPS BEING LOCATED BETWEEN SAID PRIMARY WINDINGS AND SAID INDUCTANCES AND BEING TUNED TO ATTENUATE LOW ORDER HARMONICS OF SAID KNOWN FREQUENCY WHEREBY SAID INDUCTANCES ARE SUBJECTED TO PRIMARILY SAID KNOWN FREQUENCY AND HIGH ORDER HARMONICS THEREOF.
