Abstract

Abstract Drive equipment supplied with direct current, which includes a DC motor with a series field winding and with a semi-conductor rectifier arrangement in parallel with the field winding and working in pulse operation for variable shunting of the field winding. The controllable semi-conductor rectifier has a reactor connected in series with it. A load object is connected in parallel to the semi-conductor rectifier. The load object may be an accumulator battery series-connected with a second semi-conductor rectifier which blocks the battery voltage.
