Abstract
Abstract A variable-ratio transformer for arc and plasma setups, comprising a magnetic core made up of a main part composed of two yokes and legs in accordance with the number of phases and an additional part disposed on the side of the yoke of the main part of the magnetic core. The additional part of the magnetic core is made up of a yoke and legs whose number is equal to the number of the legs of the main part, at least one leg being placed with a gap in relation to the first yoke of the main part. The primary winding of each phase comprises two series-connected parts, the first part being located on the main part of the magnetic core, while the second part is located on the additional part thereof. A controlled electronic switch which regulates the load current flowing through the secondary winding of each phase, disposed on the main part of the magnetic core, is connected in parallel to one of the parts of the primary winding of each phase.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
218 words
A variable-ratio transformer for arc and plasma setups, comprising: a magnetic core made up of a main part and a first additional part; said main part of said magnetic core, composed of a first yoke and a second yoke and a group of legs in accordance with the number of phases of said variable-ratio transformer; said first additional part of said magnetic core, disposed on the side of said first yoke of said main part thereof and composed of a yoke and a group of legs whose number is equal to that of said legs of said main part and at least one of which is placed with a gap in respect of said first yoke; a primary winding in accordance with the number of said phases made up of at least two series-connected parts, the first of said parts being disposed on said main part of said magnetic core and the second of said parts being disposed on said first additional part thereof; a secondary winding in accordance with the number of said phases, disposed on said main part of said magnetic core; a controlled electronic switch, which regulates the load current flowing through said secondary winding of each said phase, connected in parallel to one of said parts of said primary winding of each said phase.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
218 words
A variable-ratio transformer for arc and plasma setups, comprising: a magnetic core made up of a main part and a first additional part; said main part of said magnetic core, composed of a first yoke and a second yoke and a group of legs in accordance with the number of phases of said variable-ratio transformer; said first additional part of said magnetic core, disposed on the side of said first yoke of said main part thereof and composed of a yoke and a group of legs whose number is equal to that of said legs of said main part and at least one of which is placed with a gap in respect of said first yoke; a primary winding in accordance with the number of said phases made up of at least two series-connected parts, the first of said parts being disposed on said main part of said magnetic core and the second of said parts being disposed on said first additional part thereof; a secondary winding in accordance with the number of said phases, disposed on said main part of said magnetic core; a controlled electronic switch, which regulates the load current flowing through said secondary winding of each said phase, connected in parallel to one of said parts of said primary winding of each said phase.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
