'1 Claims. 1
My invention relates to electric valve circuits and more particularly to control or excitation circuits for electric valve apparatus of the type employing an ionizable medium capable of supporting an arc discharge.
In the control of electric valve apparatus em-. ploying an ionizable medium and a cathode of conducting liquid, such as mercury, it has been common practice to provide ignition means. such as an immersion-ignitor, control member, which is energized by a current impulse'to form a cathode spot and render the electric valve means conductive at a predetermined instant in the anodecathode voltage wave. In order to prolong the life of the control member, it has been found desirable in some instances to provide auxiliary or additional electrodes to which the ignition current is transferred as soon as the arc discharge is initiated. In accordance with the teachings of my invention, I provide-new. and improved circuits for application to electric valve means of the above type wherein precision and reliability in the starting of the electric valve means and the assumption of load thereby is assured.
It is an object of my invention to provide new and improved electric valve circuits.
It is another object of my invention to provide new and improved control or excitation circuits for electric valve apparatus wherein the duty imposed on the starting or ignition means is substantially reduced and wherein the reliability of control and assumption of load by the electric valve means is not impaired.
In accordance with the illustrated embodiment of my invention, I provide an improved excitation circuit for supplying current impulses to electric valve means having control members of the make-alive type in which means are provided for relieving the control member of currenti arrying duty as soon as a cathode spot is formed. 1 1 order to insure the assumption of load by the circuit I2 through electric translating apparatus electric valve means when the current impulses supplied to the-control member are of very short,
of the current impulse supplied to the control v member. This permits the use of grid control in combination with the make-alive electrodes.
My invention will be better understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing and its scope will be pointed out in the appended. claims. In the drawing, Fig. 1 is a schematic representacomprising a transformer l3 having a primary winding l4 and two groups of secondary windings l5, l6, l1 and l8, I9, 20, respectively. The two groups of secondary windings may be interconnected through an interphase transformer 2| to cause the system to operate as a double threephase or double Y system. The. translating apparatus also includes a plurality of electric valve means which are connected respectively to the terminals of econdary windings Is to 20, inclusive. Only electric valves 22 and 23, which l9, are shown in the drawing. The electric valves 22 and 23 are preferably of the type comprising an ionizable medium, such as a. gas or vapor,
capable of supporting an arc discharge and each includes an anode 24, a cathode 25 of the selfreconstructing type, an immersion-ignitor control member 26,. a transfer or relieving electrode 21 and a control member or grid 21a. The control members 26 are formed of relatively highresistance material with respect to the resistivity of the cathode and require the passage of a predetermined minimum current therethrough establish a cathode spot. lprovide an improved excitation circuit for supplying impulses of current to the control members 26 and for energizing the auxiliary electrodes 21 for-a substantial portion of the positive half wave of voltage of the anode-cathode circuit. The excitation circuit illustrated generally by the numeral 28 is energized from the supply circuit I2 through a suitable phase-shifting device 23.
'The output conductors 30, 3|, and 32 provide a three-phase system of voltages which may be adjusted in phase with respect to the voltages of the circuit I2. Energized from the conductors 30 and 3| is a series circuit including the capacitor 33, a nonlinear or self-saturating reactor 34, and the primary winding 3-5 of a transformer 36. An alternating voltage substantially electrical degrees out of phase with the voltage of conductors 30 and 3| is impressed on the primary winding 31 of a transformer 38. The transformer 36 is provided with secondary windings 39 and 40 and the transformer 38 is provided with secondary windings 4| and 42. The control member and auxiliary electrode of the electric valves 22 and 23 are energized from the secondary windings 33 to 42 in the following manner. One terminal of each of the windings 4| and 42 is connected with the conductor ll of the direct-current circuit which interconnects the cathodes 25 of the electric valves 22 and 23. The other terminal of winding 41 is connected through winding 33 to the conductor 43 which is connected directly to the relieving anode 21 and to the control member 23 through a transfer resistance 44 and a unilaterally conducting device 45 which insures only unidirectional current flow through the control member. Similarly, the other terminal of winding 42 is connected through winding 40 to the conductor 46 which is connected directly to the relieving anode 21 of electric valve 23 and to the control member 26 of valve 23 through a-transfer resistance 41 and a unilaterally conducting device 48. In order to delay the conduction of the electric valvemeans after the control members 23 thereof are energized. I provide a source of negative biasing potential such as battery '43 for maintaining the control members 21a at a negative voltage. The instant at which the electric valve means are rendered conductive is determined by the voltage of the secondary windings 53 of a transformer having the primary winding 52 thereof energized from the supply circuit l2 through a suitable phase-shifting device 53. As illustrated inrthe drawing, the cathodes of the electric valves are connected to the neutral of the transformer winding 50 through the biasing battery 43; Only the control member 21a of electric valve 22 has been shown connected with the transformer 50. It will be understood that the control member 21a of electric valve 23 will be connected to conductor 54 energized by a portion of the winding 53 displaced 180 electrical degrees with respect to the winding energizing the control member 21a of valve 22. The phaseshifting means 53 provides means for determining any point in the cycle of anode-cathode voltage at which the electric valve means is rendered conductive.
The circuit including capacitor 33, reactor 34, and the primary winding 35 of transformer 36 is a nonlinear resonant circuit with respect to the. magnitude of the alternating-current supply circuit voltage. That is, at a predetermined time during each half cycle of supply circuit voltage, reactor 34 saturates and the circuit becomes substantially' resonant. This causes impulses of current to flow through the winding 35 at a predetermined instant during each half cycle of voltage of the supply circuit. These impulses are impressed on I control members 25 and relieving anodes 21 by secondary windings 33 and 40. The passage of the current impulses establishes a cathode spot and the current is then transferred to the relieving anodes 21, this transfer being duty as soon as possible. In carrying this out, the
period of energization ofthe control member and relieving electrode by the current impulses used for ignition has been reduced to such an extent that, in some instances, the electric valve has failed toassume load current or has otherwise failed to conduct properly and also prevents detric valve means is intended to conduct.
layed conduction by grid control. In order to over come this, I impress on the excitation circuit a timed sinusoidal voltage displaced in phase with respect to the current impulses produced by the excitation circuit so as to maintain the auxiliary electrodes energized for a considerable portion of the half cycle during which the 811133;
T voltage is preferably of such a magnitude that it will not form a cathode spot by itself but will maintain suflicient current through the relieving anode to maintain the spot once the spot has been formed.
Certain operating conditions of the circuit i1.- lustrated in Fig. 1 are shown in Fig. 2. Referring to Fig. 2, curve A illustrate the anode-cathode voltage of one of the electric valve means, curve B illustrates the peaked voltage impressed on the ignitor control member 25, and curve C illustrates the voltage impressed on the-auxiliary or relieving anode 21 during the interval that the cathode spot is maintained thereby. It will be readily appreciated that, with these conditions, the conduction of the electric valves may be initiated any time after the cathode spot has been formed by the current impulse B until the current of the relieving anode 21 i reduced to zero as at D.
In the particula embodiment illustrated, the voltage for maintaining the auxiliary or relieving anode energized is displaced electrical degrees with respect to the voltage impressed on the impulse-generating circuit. It will be readily understood that this displacement may be varied to extend the period of energization of. the relieving anode to any amount desired for a particular installation.
While I have shown and described a particular embodiment of my invention, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that changes and mod-- ifications may be made without departing from my invention in its broader aspects and I, therefore, aim in the appended claims to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of my invention.
