Drive system

A drive system, comprising:

• an electric motor, wherein the electric motor has:
• a first three-phase stator winding system, and
• a second three-phase stator winding system, wherein the first and second stator winding systems are arranged on the stator in a manner rotated through an electrical phase angle in relation to each other;
• and
• a frequency converter, wherein the frequency converter comprises:
• a first bridge circuit arrangement which is configured to generate voltages for the first winding system,
• a second bridge circuit arrangement, which is configured to generate voltages for the second winding system, wherein the first bridge circuit arrangement and the second bridge circuit arrangement are connected in series,
• a third bridge circuit arrangement, which is configured to generate potentials for the first winding system, and
• a fourth bridge circuit arrangement, which is configured to generate potentials for the second winding system, wherein the third bridge circuit arrangement and the fourth bridge circuit arrangement are connected in series,
• wherein the first three-phase stator winding system comprises six phase terminals,
• wherein the second three-phase stator winding system comprises six phase terminals,
• wherein the first bridge circuit arrangement comprises three output terminals, the second bridge circuit arrangement comprises three output terminals, the third bridge circuit arrangement comprises three output terminals, and the fourth bridge circuit arrangement comprises three output terminals;
• a control device, which is configured to actuate the first bridge circuit arrangement and the second bridge circuit arrangement;
• and
• a capacitive voltage divider, to which an intermediate circuit voltage is applied, wherein one tap of the capacitive voltage divider is electrically connected to a connecting node of the first bridge circuit arrangement, the second bridge circuit arrangement, the third bridge circuit arrangement and the fourth bridge circuit arrangement, wherein the output terminals of the first bridge circuit arrangement and the output terminals of the third bridge circuit arrangement are electrically connected to a respective associated phase terminal of the first three-phase stator winding system, and wherein the output terminals of the second bridge circuit arrangement and the output terminals of the fourth bridge circuit arrangement are electrically connected to a respective associated phase terminal of the second three-phase stator winding system.
