Abstract
The specification discloses a physically compact, low-inductance, high power-factor D.C. power unit assembly for producing rectified, multi-phase or single-phase, full-wave voltage. The assembly includes a plurality of single-phase, full-wave D.C. power units each having a planar rectified pad oriented perpendicular to the plane of the coil turns. The D.C. power units are aligned so that the rectified pads are coplanar. A common bus overlies and is electrically insulated from the rectified pads and is connected to the common terminal of each D.C. power unit. A pair of rectified buses are positioned on opposite sides of, and parallel to, the common bus. Each rectified pad is electrically connected at opposite ends to each of the rectified buses. The common bus is coaxial with the two rectified buses to permit an optimal power factor.
