Abstract:
A control system to realize input power changing along with both loads and rotate speed by an inverter bridge dragging many sets of motors, is composed of a stator voltage regulating unit (1), a motor unit (2), a rotor speed control unit (3), an inverter bridge unit (4), a control drive unit (5) and a signal processing unit (6).
