Abstract
Abstract A three-phase transformer for a cycloconverter comprising three primary windings to which three-phase currents of U-, V- and W-phase are individually applied as inputs, and six secondary windings which are provided for each of the primary windings and so arranged that D.C. components contained in six sets of three-phase signals delivered from the secondary windings are canceled in the respective phases, thereby to prevent D.C. components from being contained in currents which are supplied to the primary winding wound around the main legs of an iron core for the respective phases.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
131 words
A three-phase transformer for a cycloconverter comprising three inputs, each input for receiving one of the phases of a three-phase input current, and eighteen outputs, the outputs comprising six output groups, each output group having three members, for supplying six three-phase output currents, wherein each of said inputs comprises one of the primary windings of said transformer and each of said outputs comprises one of eighteen secondary windings of said transformer, six of said secondary windings being electromagnetically coupled to each of said primary windings, and wherein each output group includes three interconnected secondary windings, each of said secondary windings in an output group being electromagnetically coupled to a different one of said three primary windings whereby DC components of the three-phase current supplied in each of said output groups cancel.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
131 words
A three-phase transformer for a cycloconverter comprising three inputs, each input for receiving one of the phases of a three-phase input current, and eighteen outputs, the outputs comprising six output groups, each output group having three members, for supplying six three-phase output currents, wherein each of said inputs comprises one of the primary windings of said transformer and each of said outputs comprises one of eighteen secondary windings of said transformer, six of said secondary windings being electromagnetically coupled to each of said primary windings, and wherein each output group includes three interconnected secondary windings, each of said secondary windings in an output group being electromagnetically coupled to a different one of said three primary windings whereby DC components of the three-phase current supplied in each of said output groups cancel.
