Abstract
Abstract An electrical control system comprising a selector switch and a control switch in circuit with each other, said selector switch being movable to and from a position establishing a circuit between said control switch and said actuating means, said actuating means being a reversible electric motor, said electric motor having opposed windings, each of which is connected to the secondary of a transformer, the control circuit from each winding to the transformer, including a bi-directional gate, said gate being in circuit with a high frequency generator and with at least one capacitor interposed between said gate and said control switch.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
118 words
An electrical control system comprising a selector switch and a control switch in circuit with each other, said selector switch being movable to and from a position establishing a circuit between said control switch and an actuating means, said actuating means being a reversible electric motor, said electric motor having opposed windings, each of which is connected to the secondary of a transformer, the control circuit from each winding to the transformer, including a bi-directional gate, said gate being in circuit with a high frequency generator and with at least one capacitor interposed between said gate and said control switch, there being a plurality of 60 cycle per second-isolating capacitors interposed between said gate and said control switch.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
118 words
An electrical control system comprising a selector switch and a control switch in circuit with each other, said selector switch being movable to and from a position establishing a circuit between said control switch and an actuating means, said actuating means being a reversible electric motor, said electric motor having opposed windings, each of which is connected to the secondary of a transformer, the control circuit from each winding to the transformer, including a bi-directional gate, said gate being in circuit with a high frequency generator and with at least one capacitor interposed between said gate and said control switch, there being a plurality of 60 cycle per second-isolating capacitors interposed between said gate and said control switch.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
The system of claim 1 wherein said transformer comprises a primary winding positioned radially outward of the secondary winding, the secondary winding being electrically connected to a device to be controlled, a grounded copper foil shield encompassing said secondary winding, and low dielectric-constant spacers between said shield and said primary winding.
