Abstract
An electro-welding device for electrically welding plastic elements together, comprising: a power source for having an AC current in circulation, an electrical converter AC/DC, heating means electrically connected to the converter for heating the weldable elements, electrical regulating means interposed between the electrical converter and the heating means, the electrical regulating means comprising switching means having successive electrically passing and electrically non-passing phases, the electrical regulating means being subjected to the switch-over rhythm of said switching means for generating a switched over electrical signal.
Claims4
An electro-welding device for electrically welding plastic elements together, the device comprising:
- a power source for generating an electrical signal, and for having an AC current in circulation,
- an electrical converter AC/DC,
- heating means, electrically connected to the converter for heating the weldable elements, at least locally, up to a temperature which is sufficient for fusing those elements and welding them, together,
- electrical regulating means interposed between the electrical converter and the heating means, the electrical regulating means comprising switching means having successive electrically passing and electrically non-passing phases, the electrical regulating means being subjected to the switch-over rhythm of said switching means for generating a switched over electrical signal having a cyclic ratio (a) which is variable, with 4 α = U RMS 2 U DC 2 and α = t 2 t 1 + t 2 ,
- UDC:
- input electrical voltage of the regulating means,
- URMS:
- variable output electrical voltage of the regulating means corresponding to the electrical current supplied to the heating means,
- t1:
- time interval for each non-passing phase of the switching means,
- t2:
- time interval for each passing phase of the switching means.
