Abstract

See full text

A driving and braking system having solid state switches for use with an electric motor. A first switch in series with a motor armature carries current from a power supply to the motor during the driving operation. A second switch couples a voltage from the motor armature to the first switch to render the first switch nonconductive and place the motor in a braking mode in response to a braking signal. The first switch provides armature current and couples a voltage from the motor armature to the second switch to render the second switch nonconductive and place the motor in a driving mode in response to a driving signal. The motor can be switched between the braking mode and the driving mode without bringing the motor to a stop.
