Abstract
1288814 Pulse generators; generating oscillations HITACHI Ltd 30 Sept 1969 [2 Oct 1968 (3)] 48114/69 Headings H3B and H3T [Also in Division F1] An electric pulse generator, such as for ignition of a car I.C. engine, has a series circuit composed of terminals for a D.C. source 1, an induction winding 5 and a semi-conductor switching element 8, a capacitor 9 charged via a diode 7 by a voltage induced in the induction winding 5, or another winding (22, Fig. 4) coupled to the induction winding 5, due to interrupting the current through the induction winding 5 by the semi-conductor element 8 being turned off due to current saturation of the induction winding 5 and a closed circuit for the discharge of the capacitor 9, at the instant when the semiconductor element 8 is made conductive by a positive feedback circuit 5, 6 composed of a load 11 and a semi-conductor switching element, e.g. 8 and/or 20. When an ignition switch in line 2 (not shown) is closed a voltage via differentiating circuit 17, 18 turns transistor 8 on. This produces a voltage in winding 5 which induces a positive feedback voltage in winding 6 to turn the transistor 8 on more. When the current through winding 5 reaches saturation the voltage in the winding 6 decreases and transistor 8 turns off. A voltage is then induced in winding 5 and this charges capacitor 9; contact 15 then closes and on reopening a pulse from the differentiating circuit 17, 18 again turns on transistor 8. Capacitor 9 is now discharged via the transistor 8 and primary winding 12 of an ignition coil 11 which co-operate with diode 19 to produce oscillations (Fig. 2d, at time t 3 , not shown) from the output winding 13 for a spark plug 14. A current regulator may be inserted in the base circuit of 8 so as to ensure that the current energy stored in winding 5 when transistor 8 turns off can be constant. The pulse generator can be modified by including an SCR 20 in series with the transistor 8 (Fig. 4) (Figs. 3 and 5, not shown), so that the SCR 20 turns on and off when the transistor turns on and off. The SCR and diode 7 then act to protect the transistor 8 when it is off against emitter-collector breakdown. In a further modification (Fig. 6, not shown), the capacitor 9 is charged and discharged from a tertiary winding 22 of the magnetic core 4 by a gate turn off GTO thyristor 23 turned on and off by control of its gate from the winding 6 as transistor 8 is turned on and off.
