Portable Electric Arc-Welding System
A portable electric arc-welding system is disclosed herein. The portable electric arc-welding system can comprise a battery, an electric welding machine, and a housing. The electric welding machine can comprise an electric motor, a governor, a main armature, and a shaft. The electric motor can be capable of converting electrical energy from the battery into rotatable mechanical energy. The governor can regulate a speed of the electric motor. The main armature can receive the rotatable mechanical energy from the electric motor and produces electrical power. The shaft can transfer the rotatable mechanical energy from the electric motor to the main armature. The housing can enclose the electric welding machine and the battery.
1 . A portable electric arc-welding system comprising
a battery
an electric welding machine comprising
an electric motor capable of converting electrical energy from said battery into rotatable mechanical energy; and
a governor that regulates a speed of said electric motor;
a main armature that receives said rotatable mechanical energy from said electric motor and produces electrical power; and
a shaft that transfers said rotatable mechanical energy from said electric motor to said main armature
a housing that encloses said electric welding machine and said battery
2 . The arc-welding system of claim 1 further comprising one or more solar panels mounted to said housing.
3 . The arc-welding system of claim 1 further comprising a control panel accessible from an outside of said housing, said control panel comprising
an amp range selector that allows selection of a current within a current range;
a fine current selector that allows control of arc characteristics; and
an RPM dial that adjust revolutions per minute (rpms) of said electric motor.
4 . The arc-welding system of claim 1 further comprising
an inverter that receives a direct current from said battery and converts said direct current (DC) voltage from said battery to an alternating current (AC) voltage; and
a transformer that receives said AC voltage from said inverter, and outputs a second AC voltage.
5 . The arc-welding system of claim 4 wherein said second AC voltage is 240 VAC.
6 . The arc-welding system of claim 4 wherein said second AC voltage is 120 VAC.
7 . The arc-welding system of claim 4 further comprising a switch, said switch positionable in a first position that transmits power to said inverter and in a second position that transmits power to said electric welding machine.
8 . The arc-welding system of claim 1 wherein said main armature delivers single-phase alternating current.
9 . The arc-welding system of claim 1 wherein said main armature delivers three-phase alternating current.
10 . The arc-welding system of claim 1 wherein said electric welding machine further comprises an exciter armature that receives said rotatable mechanical motion from said electric motor and produces electrical power to an outlet mounted on a wall of said housing.
