DESC:SINGLE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR SPEED REGULATION WITH VARIATION OF CAPACITANCE VALUE IN AUXILIARY WINDING WIITH PIANO SWTICH
FIELD OF INVENTION:
[001] The present subject matter described herein, relates to a Pedestal and Table/Desk Fan single phase induction motor speed regulation with controlling motor torque by varying auxiliary winding capacitance value with the help of capacitor. To control the capacitance value for each speed/switch operation, contact plate mechanism for piano switch is designed to select the terminals as per selection.
BACKGROUND AND PRIOR ART:
[002] The single phase induction motor has AC input. The single phase induction motor has rotor and stator. The single phase induction motor has only one phase on the stator winding. Hence the resulting magnetic field in a single phase induction motor does not rotate. For starting any type of motor there must be resulting magnetic field to create torque to rotate the rotor .In single phase induction motor without capacitor the field created by stator winding is positive in half cycle and negative in other half so resulting net field is zero so torque is also zero. Now when capacitor is added to the additional auxiliary winding of stator it creates field which leads by 90 degree to main winding field so the two fields which are 90 degrees to each other, resulting rotating field responsible for start of the fan motor. The capacitor used to start the motor after start may be taken out of circuit because as rotor is rotating each half field of stator creating field in rotor in same direction so producing net field not equal to zero and motor can run continuously if the switch off the power supply to the motor. In existing wall and pedestal fan single phase induction motor, speed of motor is controlled by tapping/looping points from different location of stator winding.
[003] Fig. 1 illustrates block diagram of existing system for speed/torque control in Wall and Pedestal fan single phase induction motor. The single phase induction motor has rotor and stator. The stator has run winding (main winding) 101 and auxiliary winding 102 with a capacitor 103 connected in series. During selection of low, medium and high speed, the AC input is tab in between the coils to vary current in the run winding 101. The main winding 101 has four coils R1, R2, R3, R4 or poles. Similarly the auxiliary winding 102 has four coils A1, A2, A3, A4 or poles. During Low speed selection 106, a supply live point or AC input is connected via switch 107 with tapping 106a between coil A2 and A3 in Auxiliary winding 102. Now coil A1 and A2 shifted to Run (Main) winding 101 which became 6 pole (coil), R1, R2, R3, R4, A1, A2, i.e., and Auxiliary (Start) winding left only with two (2) poles A3, A4 (coil). There is coil imbalance in between the main winding 101 and the auxiliary winding 102 which creates electrical imbalance between main winding 101 and the auxiliary winding 102 and generates noise in single phase induction motor.
[004] During medium speed point 105: when supply of live AC point is connected via switch 107 with tapping 105a between coil A1 and A2 in the auxiliary winding 102. Now coil A1 shifted to Run (Main) winding 101, i.e., Run winding became 5 pole (coil), i.e., R1, R2, R3, R4, A1 and the Auxiliary (Start) winding 102 left only 3 pole (coil), i.e., A2, A3, A4. There is coil imbalance in between the main winding 101 and the auxiliary winding 102 which creates electrical imbalance between main winding 101 and the auxiliary winding 102 and generates noise in single phase induction motor.
[005] During High speed point 104: when supply of live AC point connected via switch 107 with common terminal 104a of two windings. No Pole (Coil) shifting happens, i.e., Run winding remain with 4 pole (coil), i.e., R1, R2, R3, R4 and the auxiliary (Start) winding 102 remains with 4 pole (coil), i.e., A1, A2, A3, A4. There is no coil imbalance in between the main winding 101 and the auxiliary winding 102. Therefore, there is no electrical imbalance between Run and Start winding and noise is also not generated.
[006] In the existing system or induction motor, unwanted noise is generated in Low and Medium speed point due to electrical imbalance in between the run winding 101 and the auxiliary winding 102. Therefore, there is a requirement in the motor to have equal coil balance during low, medium and high speed point. Therefore, there is a need in the art to provide single phase induction motor with a mechanism to distribute equal coils in each speed point and varying flow of current in the windings depend upon the selection of speed point. Further, there is a need in the art to provide a single phase induction motor that is more simple and inexpensive, and which does not create noise and electrical imbalance.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION:
[007] The principal objective of the present invention is to provide a single phase induction motor having no electrical imbalance in both Run (Main) and Start (Auxiliary) winding.
[008] Another objective of the present subject matter is to reduce/eliminate noise in induction motor at low and medium speed point due to electrical imbalance.
[009] Another objective of the present subject matter is to provide a piano switch contact lever and circuit diagram for piano switch, so that capacitance value for different speed is controlled by this circuit.
[0010] Another object of the present subject matter is to increase number of contact points/contact area for each switch operation with the piano switch.
[0011] Yet another objective of the present subject matter is to provide a piano switch having capability to connect capacitor having different capacitance value such as the capacitor has three tapping points for supplying different capacitance value to motor for different speed operations in various combinations in series with the auxiliary winding of the single phase induction motor.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION:
[0012] The subject matter disclosed herein relates to a single phase induction motor with rotor torque/speed control with the help of variable capacitance value in auxiliary winding of the motor. The single phase induction motor has a stator and rotor. The stator is powered by a AC power source. The rotor rotates inside the stator upon generation of magnetic field. The stator has run winding (main winding) and an auxiliary winding (start winding). Further, a single capacitor having different capacitance value is provided to connect with the auxiliary winding in series upon selection of speed by a rotary switch. The single capacitor has three tapping points, such as C1, C2, and C3 (C3= C1+C2) for supplying different capacitance value to motor for different speed operations, such as low, medium, and high speed operations of the motor. The single capacitor is connected with the auxiliary winding in series upon selection of speed by a piano switch. The capacitance value of tapping point C2 is more than capacitance value of tapping point C1. The piano switch is provided for controlling current flow in the stator windings by varying capacitance value in the auxiliary winding by connecting capacitor with different capacitance value by tapping point C1 or tapping point capacitor C2 or combination of tapping point C1 and C2 of the capacitor in series. During low speed selection, the piano switch connects the capacitor tapping point C1 with low capacitance value in series with the auxiliary winding to operate the single phase induction motor at low speed. Due to low capacitance value, low current reaches to the stator. During medium speed selection, the piano switch connects the capacitor tapping point C2 with high capacitance value in series with the auxiliary winding to operate the single phase induction motor at medium speed. During high speed selection, the piano switch connects combination of the capacitor tapping point C1 and the capacitor tapping point C2 having combined capacitance value in series with the auxiliary winding to operate the single phase induction motor at high speed. In the present circuit, the coil distribution remains same in both windings, i.e., main winding and the auxiliary winding. Therefore, there is no electrical imbalance and no noise generation issue.

Further, the single capacitor with three different tapping points connects with the auxiliary winding 202 in series upon selection of speed by a piano switch 300. The piano switch is provided for controlling current flow in the stator windings by varying capacitance value in the auxiliary winding by connecting capacitor tapping point C1 or capacitor tapping point C2 or combination of capacitor tapping points C1 and C2 in series. The capacitor has different capacitance value, where the capacitor taping point (C2) 204 has high capacitance value than capacitance value of capacitor tapping point (C1) 203. During Low speed point selection, supply of live AC point is connected via piano switch 300 with the capacitor tapping point (C1) 203 in the auxiliary winding 202. During low speed selection, the low capacitance value capacitor tapping point (C1) 203 is connected in series with the auxiliary winding 202. The motor torque and speed with the combination of capacitor tapping point (C1) 203 and the auxiliary winding 202 is achieved for running the single phase induction motor in low speed. The switch used for the selection is a piano type.
[0025] During Low speed point, supply live point connected via piano switch 300 with Capacitor tapping point C1 in Auxiliary winding. For low speed, low value capacitor tapping point (C1) is series with the auxiliary winding 202 in the circuit. Motor torque and speed with the present combination of capacitance value C1 is achieved. At low speed switch contact connected two points at a time. In this way both Run and Auxiliary winding remain with their 4 pole (Coil), no electrical imbalance happen and as a result noise problem was eliminated.

The three contact levers 306, 307, 308 are connected with the corresponding buttons for couple and dis-coupling with the contact terminals. If low speed contact lever 306 is coupled with the low speed contact terminal 303, the user presses the button of medium speed to connect the medium speed contact lever 307 with the medium speed contact terminal 304 on the base plate 301 of the piano switch. Upon pressing the medium speed button, the low speed contact lever 306 dis-coupled with the low speed contact terminal 303. Similarly, upon operation of different contact lever, the previously engaged contact lever dis-engaged with the plate. Upon pressing the Off button, no contact lever is in contact with the base plate, hence disengages the supply of live AC into the motor.

Similarly, the high speed contact lever 308 has capacitor tapping point C2 contact point extending arm 308a, capacitor tapping point C1 contact point extending arm 308b, connection line (R) contact point extending arm 308d, supply AC input (L) contact point extending arm 308c. The base of the contact lever is connected with a vertical shaft operated by the button.
[0031] During low speed selection 207, the contact lever 306 of the low speed contact terminal 303 is pressed and the four extending arms 306a, 306b, 306c, 306d of the contact lever 306 connects with contact points 303a, 303b, 303c, 303d of the low speed contact terminal to complete the circuit for low speed control. The contact lever 306 connects the capacitor tapping point C1 in series with the auxiliary winding along with AC supply line.
[0032] During medium speed selection 206, the contact lever 307 of the medium speed terminal 304 is pressed, the four extending arms of the contact lever connects with Capacitor tapping point (C2), AC supply line (L), connection line (R), and blank line to complete the circuit for medium speed control.
