Latest Patents

One of Achleitner's latest patents is an inverter designed for converting a DC voltage into an AC voltage. This innovative inverter is particularly suited for high power densities, ranging from 250 W/dm to 500 W/dm. It features at least one DC input, an AC output, a heat sink, a printed circuit board, a DC disconnector, a DC-DC converter, an intermediate circuit, a DC-AC converter, and a housing with a front cover and a basic shell. The electrical components of the DC-DC converter, intermediate circuit, and DC-AC converter are ingeniously combined into subassemblies. The design allows for the DC disconnector and the subassemblies to be directly arranged on the circuit board in a U-shaped manner, corresponding to the energy flow direction from DC input to AC output. The circuit board is positioned with the component side facing the base of the housing shell and the opposite side on the heat sink.

Another significant patent involves a method for controlling an inverter, which includes a DC/DC stage with at least one main switch and a discharge circuit, along with a DC/AC stage. The discharge circuit is formed by a series connection of a bidirectional switching element, which consists of two switches, and an inductivity. A device is provided for controlling the switches, designed to activate one switch in an alternating manner, with the switch-on time determined by the controlling device prior to the switch-off time of the main switch.
