Patent ID: 11005394

Abstract:
The present invention provides a control system (100, 200, 300) for controlling a single phase induction motor (150, 250) with a main winding (151, 251) and with an auxiliary winding (152, 252), the control system (100, 200, 300) comprising a first bidirectional switching element (101) and a second bidirectional switching element (102), wherein the first bidirectional switching element (101) is arranged between a phase supply input (103, 203) of the single phase induction motor (150, 250) and the main winding (151, 251) and wherein the second bidirectional switching element (102) is arranged electrically parallel to the main winding (151, 251), and a control unit (105, 205) coupled to the first bidirectional switching element (101) and the second bidirectional switching element (102).
