Electric transformer with selectively energized modular circuits

摘要

An electric transformer for supplying an adjustable electric magnitude, especially for regulating purposes, includes several modules having therebetween a binary progression relationship with respect to their power handling capabilities. Each module has a switching network for selectively rendering it operative or inoperative and, each module has at least one primary circuit input coil, the primary coils of each of the modules cooperating with one single secondary output circuit which is common to all of the modules. The switching network of each module being so connected as to allow the neutralization of the effect of the electronic induction of its respective primary coil or coils on the common secondary circuit, while maintaining the magnetic activity of the primary circuits.
