Three phase inverter to single phase service [RE-wrenches]

I'm under the impression that a phase converter will not really work in
reverse. I have no experience with phase converters.
Existing three-phase batteryless inverter needs to go to single phase
120/240 service. 
I expect that the challenge is how to present the three-phase inverter with
waves stable enough to synchronize - that is if a phase converter (rotary, I
assume) would work in the reverse direction of its intended design of taking
single to three phase. Perhaps the motor would run in reverse?

I scratched my head about transformers and ended up with nothing.

Thanks for comments,
erika

How about a phase converter?
