Abstract From the Canadian patent

A variable speed drive for an AC motor has features to reduce the speed of the motor if excess temperature is encountered in the variable speed drive system. The system has a rectifier that converts AC supply voltage into DC voltage on the positive and negative rails. Frequency switches switch the DC voltage to power conductors in a sequence and at a rate to determine the selected frequency. The frequency switches are controlled by a DC demand voltage. A temperature sensor provides an electrical response corresponding to the temperature in the system. The temperature response is compared to a reference voltage and, if it exceeds the reference voltage the comparator provides, an output that …
