Abstract

See full text

A bridge-type power converter has, in each phase, a inductor (L.sub.1) connected between a connection point of said two switching elements (Q.sub.1, Q.sub.2) and an output terminal; capacitors (C.sub.1, C.sub.2) connected between the output terminal and a positive or negative side of a d.c. bus for changing an output voltage along a curve determined by a phenomenon of resonance with the reactor (L.sub.1) when the semiconductors switching elements (Q.sub.1, Q.sub.2) operate, causing abrupt changes of a voltage at the connection point; diodes (D.sub.3, D.sub.4) for changing a current path at a time when the resonance goes approximately one quarter of period to thereby stop the resonance; and constant voltage diodes (ZD.sub.1, ZD.sub.2) for absorbing the energy stored in the inductor (L.sub.1) during the resonance.
