Title: Obstacle volumineux en microfils
Inventor: BSCHORR OSKAR
IPC: E04H17/00
Filed: 2002-11-12
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des corps volumineux en fils utilisés pour protéger des objets, en tant que protection auxiliaire pour des barrières et des clôtures, et pour protéger des plantations et des cultures d'arbres. Les corps en fils ont par exemple une forme de dé et sont composés de microfils. Comparés aux obstacles en fils conventionnels, les corps en fils de l'invention ont une résistance à la déchirure limitée, ce qui permet à une personne qui s'est accrochée involontairement, de se décrocher seule sans faire appel à des moyens auxiliaires et sans risquer de se blesser. Un obstacle de ce type n'a pas pour but d'empêcher la pénétration interdite, mais seulement de la ralentir et de la rendre plus difficile. Les corps en fils ont un poids et un volume de stockage limités, et peuvent, en fonction de la situation, être retirés en un temps extrêmement court, sans préparation et logistique particulière. La longévité de ces obstacles est réglable et limitée. Une décomposition automatique finale et une élimination automatique écologique sont prévues.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multifunction power
convertor in the field of power transmission. The
multifunction power convertor consists of a rectifier
circuit, a filter circuit connecting with the rectifier
circuit, an inverter circuit connecting with the filter
circuit, and differential mode voltage suppression reactors
(LS 1 , LS 2 , LS 3 ) and filter capacitor group that connect in
series with the output lines (U, V, W) of the inverter
circuit respectively. The characteristic of the present
invention is that a closed magnetic ring is provided on the
output lines (U, V, W) between the differential mode voltage
suppression reactors and the filter capacitor group, and the
output lines (U, V, W) wind in parallel on the closed
magnetic ring. The merit of this invention is using the
closed magnetic ring to insulate the high frequency signal,
thus reducing the output of common mode voltage and improving
the voltage output waveform; besides, the structure is very
simple, with the cost and the volume and weight being reduced
greatly.
