"SPEED AND TORQUE CONTROL FOR FRACTIONAL HORSEPOWER MOTORS HAVING VARIABLE DUTY CYCLE SUPPLY" Abstract of the Disclosure Power control circuitry for supplying pulses of power from a power source to a fractional horsepower motor with a plurality of power pulses applied to the motor during each half cycle of the power source waveform for more uni- form speed and torque characteristics of the motor at low speeds. A timing capacitor in a motor speed control portion of the circuitry has a constant sum of resistances in the charge and discharge paths for fixed frequency of power pulses applied to the motor. The timing capacitor is electrically connected to a wiper arm of a variable resistor located in both the charge and discharge paths such that resistance may be shifted between the paths to vary the duty cycle of the pulses over a wide range. A pulse generating portion of the circuitry includes a threshold comparator and a trigger com- parator to respectively monitor the voltage on the timing capacitor for high or low conditions and cause a bi-stable circuit to change output states upon the occurrence of either condition to generate a train of pulses. The bi- stable circuit is adapted to control the conductive states of transistors in series connection between the motor and the power source to apply repetitive constant-freguency, variable duty cycle pulses of power from the power source to the motor in accordance with the train of pulses. Related methods are also disclosed.
