Zusammenfassung: | To provide a power supply device and a power supply system, capable of reducing costs of components while reducing complexity of a circuit configuration when supplying electric power to an electric apparatus using multiple batteries.SOLUTION: In outputting a voltage from an output unit using a plurality of battery packs 33c1 to 35c4 connected to a plurality of (four or more) pack connecting units 33a1 to 35a4, a power supply device 10 switches a connection state between a second pack parallel connection unit and the output unit after classifying the battery packs into one of a first pack parallel connection unit 33 and a second pack parallel connection unit 35 while the connection state between the first pack parallel connection unit and the output unit is fixed. With such a configuration, the pattern of the connection state can be reduced and the configuration of an output voltage switch unit 37 can be simplified as compared to the configuration that switches the connection state between multiple (four or more) battery packs and the output unit to various patterns. Thereby, the cost increase of the output voltage switch unit can be suppressed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
【課題】複数の電池を用いて電動機器に電力供給するにあたり、回路構成の複雑化を低減しつつ、部品コストを低減できる電力供給装置および電力供給システムを提供する。【解決手段】電力供給装置10は、複数(4個以上)のパック接続部33a1〜35a4に接続された複数の電池パック33c1〜35c4を用いて出力部から電圧出力するにあたり、複数の電池パックを、第1パック並列接続部33および第2パック並列接続部35のうちいずれかに分類した上で、第1パック並列接続部と出力部との接続状態を固定状態としつつ、第2パック並列接続部と出力部との接続状態を切り替える。このような構成は、複数(4個以上)の電池パックと出力部との接続状態を様々なパターンに切り替える構成に比べて、接続状態のパターンを減らし、出力電圧スイッチ部37の構成を簡略化できる。これにより、出力電圧スイッチ部のコスト増加を抑制できる。【選択図】図2 |
