Abstract

See full text

A system comprises an energy store subsystem connected to an electronic converter subsystem, and a linear motor subsystem connectable to the electronic converter subsystem through a selector switch, the electronic converter subsystem also being connectable to an energy source through the selector switch. The electronic converter subsystem comprises a reversible power converter. In operation, the selector switch first connects the energy source to the electronic converter subsystem for charging at least one energy store in the energy store subsystem and then connects the electronic converter subsystem to the linear motor subsystem to supply power from the energy store subsystem to the linear motor subsystem. Regenerative power from linear motor braking can also be used to recharge the energy store(s) through the electronic converter subsystem. Several systems can be coupled together in parallel to a common energy source.
