Welding transformer with drooping voltage-current characteristics
First Claim
1. A welding transformer with drooping voltage-current characteristic adapted for supplying welding arc, comprising a magnetic core wound from transformer plate, said core having spaced legs defining a window, primary and secondary windings wound on said legs of said core in spaced relation, and a magnetic flux shunt movably inserted into said window between the primary and secondary coils, and spacing blocks in said legs at the junction of said shunt with said legs to reduce eddy currents within the magnetic core.

Abstract
A welding transformer with drooping voltage-current characteristic comprising a split magnetic core wound from transformer plate, and separated primary and secondary windings. In the core window, a moving shunt of the magnetic flux is provided between the secondary and primary windings. Where the magnetic flux passes from the core into the magnetic flux shunt, the core is provided with spacing blocks made from transformer plate. Laminations of these spacing blocks are so arranged in relation to the core plate that the magnetic flux does not cross the plane of the core plates but flows towards the magnetic shunt.
