Each motor is linked via a switch to a frequency inverter. In fixed operation each reluctance motor receives its power from the frequency inverter (31, 32, 33) via a switch. When operating under power but without mechanical load each reluctance motor (11, 12, 13) is coupled to the appropriate frequency inverter (41, 42, 43) via a switch (51, 52, 53). During stationary operation each frequency inverter is linked in parallel to appropriate spinning stations (1) via the switches. In the event of a thread break the motor is switched to a pre-selected frequency inverter. Also claimed is a commensurate operating process.

Title: Procede et appareil empechant le gel d'eau dans les centrales a piles a combustible pendant l'entreposage
Inventor: ASSARABOWSKI RICHARD J
IPC: H01M8/12
Filed: 2003-01-07
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de réchauffage pour centrale à piles à combustible (10), généralement à membrane échangeuse de protons (PEM). Ce système de réchauffage empêche les pièces de la centrale à piles à combustible sensibles au gel, telles que l'ensemble empilement de piles à combustibles (CSA) (12) et le système de gestion d'eau (28, 30), de geler par très grand froid, lors d'un entreposage prolongé (arrêt de CSA) de 7 jours ou plus. Ce système utilise un combustible pré-stocké, généralement de l'hydrogène (25), qui est normalement utilisé pour ravitailler en carburant l'anode (16) du CSA, au même titre que le combustible servant à la réaction d'oxydation catalytique dans un brûleur catalytique (66). L'hydrogène ou un autre carburant approprié, subit une réaction catalytique avec un oxydant, tel que l'air (22), pour produire du gaz chauffé qui passe convectivement en relation d'échange thermique par les pièces sensibles au gel (12, 28, 30) de ladite centrale (10). La chaleur de l'hydrogène et de l'air réagis, généralement comprise entre 200° et 700°, distribue ce gaz chauffé aux pièces concernées de la centrale (10) et établit l'écoulement convectif qui dirige l'écoulement d'air au brûleur catalytique (66). L'écoulement convectif permet de se dispenser des charges électriques parasites telles que les pompes et les ventilateurs. Pour améliorer l'efficacité thermique du système, un ou plusieurs dispositifs thermo-isolants (64) renferment sensiblement le CSA sensible au gel (12) et/ou le système de gestion d'eau (28, 30), ainsi que l'écoulement convectif du gaz chauffé provenant du brûleur catalytique (66).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé destiné à former un dispositif de puissance à semi-conducteur. Ce procédé consiste d'abord à utiliser un substrat d'un premier type de conductivité et à former une zone de maintien de tension sur ce substrat. La zone de maintien de tension est formée de la manière suivante : Premièrement, une couche épitaxiale est déposée sur le substrat, cette couche présentant un premier ou un second type de conductivité. Ensuite, au moins une tranchée étagée est formée dans la couche épitaxiale. La tranchée étagée comporte un fond de tranchée et une pluralité de parties de largeur variable définissant au moins un rebord annulaire formé entre celles-ci. Un matériau barrière est déposé sur les parois et le fond de la tranchée. Un dopant d'un type de conductivité opposé au type de conductivité de la couche épitaxiale est implanté par l'intermédiaire du matériau barrière garnissant le rebord annulaire dans le fond de tranchée et les parties adjacentes de la couche épitaxiale, de sorte à former respectivement au moins une zone dopée annulaire et une autre zone dopée. Le dopant est diffusé dans la zone dopée annulaire et l'autre zone dopée de façon à amener ces zones à se chevaucher, une colonne dopée continue étant ainsi formée dans la couche épitaxiale. Une matière de charge est déposée dans la tranchée étagée de façon à remplir sensiblement ladite tranchée étagée. Enfin, au moins une zone d'un type de conductivité opposé au type de conductivité de la couche épitaxiale est formée au-dessus de la zone de maintien de tension de manière qu'une jonction soit définie entre ces deux zones.
