[Also in Division G3] A 3-phase bridge rectifier 8 to 13 (Fig. 1) coupling a vehicle engine driven alternator 1 to sundry load on the vehicle, is provided with Zener diodes 12, 13 in one arm to limit the voltage between lines 6, 7 to about 38 Volts. It is stated that excess voltage between these lines can occur when starter motor 20 is operated also when a load 18 is suddenly switched off causing the alternator voltage to rise e.g. to 250 V. if the battery 16 is disconnected. A regulator 21 is set to maintain the alternator voltage to 14 Volts but its response to sudden excess voltage is not sufficiently rapid to prevent damage to itself and other components. Additionally the rectifiers 10, 11 may be Zener diodes (Figs. 5a, 5b, not shown). Rectifiers 8, 10, 12 are mounted on one cooling plate and 9, 11, 13 on another, the plates also being conductors, Fig. 4 (not shown). Regulator.-The regulator 21 is connected to the output of a second bridge comprising rectifiers 23 and the rectifiers 9, 11, 13 and controls the energization of the alternator field winding 5, by means of transistor switches 33, 34, which conduct alternately at a switching cycle frequency of 10-100 c.p.s. When the alternator voltage is low the potential at point 27 in a voltage divider is low whereby a Zener diode 32 is blocked. Hence transistor 33 has no base current and is non-conductive. Its collector is therefore positive relative to lead 7 so that transistor 34 conducts and current flows in winding 5 increasing the alternator voltage. As the alternator voltage increases the potential at point 27 increases until eventually Zener diode 32 breaks down causing transistor 33 to conduct which renders transistor 34 non-conductive stopping the field current supply. Current will continue to flow in winding 5 briefly via diode 38. At least one of the dioes 23 may also be of Zener type (Fig.6, not shown).</p> |
