Abstract:
A power converter for an electric power system comprises a switching circuit ( 102 ) for supplying, in a first operating mode of the power converter, voltages for driving a rotating electric machine. The power converter comprises a contactor system ( 110 ) and a controller ( 109 ) for using, in a second operating mode of the power converter, the switching circuit and at least one of windings ( 115 ) of the rotating electric machine as a voltage-decreasing direct voltage converter between direct voltage terminals of the power converter. Therefore, the switching circuit of the power converter can be utilized both for driving the rotating electric machine and, for example, for charging a battery element connected to a direct voltage terminal of the power converter.

Claim (Index 6):
The power converter according to  claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to control, in a third operating mode of the power converter, one or more of the second controllable switches to alternate between conductive and non-conductive states so as to operate the switching circuit and the at least one of the inductive windings as a voltage-increasing direct voltage converter for transferring electric energy from the second direct voltage terminal to the first direct voltage terminal.
