Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005081585A1] According to the invention, a heating current that is especially used to inductively heat a metallic or magnetic workpiece is generated by means of an inverter, from an input-side supply voltage. Said inverter has four controllable switching elements (S_P1, S_P2, S_N1, S_N2) that are arranged in relation to each other in an H-bridge circuit having two parallel longitudinal branches (42, 44) and a transversal branch (46). The respectively diagonally opposed switching elements (S_P1, S_P2; S_N1, S_N2) of the bridge circuit are controlled in such a way that the heating flow flows through the transversal branch (46). According to one embodiment of the invention, the diagonally opposed switching elements (S_P1, S_P2; S_N1, S_N2) are switched from the conductive state to the non-conductive state in a temporally staggered manner.
