VORRICHTUNG ZUR UNTERBRECHUNGSFREIEN STROMVERSORGUNG MIT EINER ELEKTRISCHEN MASCHINE UND EINEM SCHWUNGRAD

摘要

An apparatus for uninterruptedly supplying power includes an electrical machine including a rotor and being designed and arranged to be connected to a load to be supplied with alternating current. Coupling units include a differential transmission including three input/output shafts. A flywheel is designed and arranged to store kinetic energy and to be connected to the rotor by the coupling units. Control units include a controllable brake and at least one electrical auxiliary machine to be operated as a motor. The electrical auxiliary machine and the controllable brake engage the third input/output shaft. The control units keep the number of rotations of the electrical machine approximately constant when the electrical machine is operated as a generator by kinetic energy being stored in the flywheel. The control units are being designed and arranged to operate the electrical auxiliary machine as a motor to realize a desired final number of rotations of the flywheel during operation of the electrical machine as a motor.
