Abstract

See full text

A power converting device includes: a rectifying circuit connected to an alternating-current power supply for converting alternating-current power from the alternating-current power supply into direct-current power; a short-circuit unit constituted by a diode bridge and a short-circuit element connected to opposite output ends of the diode bridge for short-circuiting the alternating-current power supply via a reactor; and a control unit that generates plural drive signals to control the short-circuit unit during a half cycle of the alternating-current power supply. The control unit generates a sine-wave-shaped current control range that is a target control range of power supply current of the alternating-current power supply, and maintains values of the power supply current of the alternating-current power supply within the current control range.
