【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、この種の充電装置は、負荷装置との間の端子は、充電装置の動作状態と負荷装置の動作状態を互いに伝える信号を、制御のオン又はオフ、及び接続が有り又は無しの信号で行うため、6個以上の端子が必要だった。

【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、接続端子が多い場合は相互の接続ケーブルが太くなり、負荷装置と充電装置が離れている場合や可搬形の場合不便であった。
【0005】
本発明は、このような状況のもとでなされたもので、負荷が制御できまた二次電池が接続できてその充電が制御できる負荷装置と、この負荷装置に電力を供給する充電装置とを最小の端子数で接続できる電源システムを提供することを目的とするものである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前記目的を達成するため、本発明では、電源システムを次の(1)〜(3)のとおりに構成する。
【0007】

【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下本発明の実施の形態を“電源システム”の実施例により詳しく説明する。
【0011】
【実施例】
図1は実施例である“電源システム”の構成を示すブロック図である。図1において、1は充電装置である。2は負荷装置、3および4は二次電池、5,6および7は充電装置1と負荷装置2の間を接続する端子、8は充電装置1の動作を制御する充電制御部、9は負荷装置2の中で負荷電流を消費したり、二次電池4の充電を制御する負荷制御部、10は電源電圧を発生する電源部、11は二次電池3を充電する充電電流を制限する抵抗器、12は二次電池3への抵抗器11を通した充電電流を制御するトランジスタ、13は二次電池3への大電流の充電電流を制御するトランジスタ、14および15は二次電池3に供給される充電電圧を分割(分圧ともいう)する抵抗器、16は二次電池3を通った充電電流を検出する抵抗器、17は負荷装置2からの帰還電流(充電電流を含む)を検出する抵抗器、18および19は負荷装置2からの帰還電圧を分割する抵抗器、20は充電装置1に二次電池3が取り付けられたことを検知するスイッチ、21は負荷装置2の負荷制御部9に供給される電圧を抵抗器18に供給する抵抗器、22は負荷制御部9に供給される電圧を抵抗器18に供給するため負荷制御部9により制御されるトランジスタ、23は二次電池4からの逆流を防ぐダイオード、24は二次電池4を低電流で充電する抵抗器、25は二次電池4を充電するため負荷制御部9により制御される半導体スイッチ、26は二次電池4の電圧を抵抗器18に供給する抵抗器、27は二次電池4の電圧を抵抗器18に供給するため負荷制御部9により制御されるトランジスタ、28は充電装置1から負荷装置2へ供給する電力を制御し二次電池4からの逆流を防止する半導体スイッチ、29は負荷装置2に二次電池4がとりつけられたことを検知するスイッチである。
【0012】
前述の構成において、充電装置1は、負荷装置2に端子5,6および7の3端子で接続し電力を供給すると共に、負荷制御部9の制御により二次電池4への充電電流、負荷制御部9への負荷電流および二次電池3への充電電流の供給を最適に制御している。
【0013】
充電装置1に二次電池3のみが接続されると、スイッチ20がこれを検知し、充電制御部8はトランジスタ12をオンにし低電流で充電を開始し、抵抗器14および15で分割された電圧を監視しており、前もって設定された基準電圧を越えるとトランジスタ13をオンにする。二次電池3は定電圧で充電するタイプの二次電池で充電が進行すると、充電電流は二次電池の特性で減少する。充電電流は抵抗器16で電圧に変換され充電制御部8に入り、アナログ電圧値からデジタル電圧値に変換され、基準値と比較され、制御に使用される。
【0014】
充電制御部8は電源部10を制御しており、二次電池3の充電中、低電流で充電する時は充電電流値に制限を付け、トランジスタ13がオンになって制限された大きな電流値で充電を始めてから、二次電池3の電圧が前もって設定された基準電圧を越えると二次電池の特性で充電電流が減少し始めるので充電電流の制限を外すように制御する。また、充電電流が前もって設定された電流値以下になった時二次電池3が満充電になったと判断し、充電制御部8はトランジスタ12および13をオフにする。
【0015】
充電装置1に二次電池4の付属しない負荷装置2のみが接続された場合、負荷制御部9はトランジスタ22をオン、トランジスタ27をオフ、半導体スイッチ25および28はオフに設定されている。充電装置1の電源電圧は端子5および端子7の間に加えられており、負荷装置2に入る。電源電圧はトランジスタ22および端子6を通り帰還電圧となり、抵抗器21および18の合成抵抗値と抵抗器19の抵抗値とで分割され充電制御部8に入る。また、負荷装置2を通った帰還電流は端子7を通り抵抗器17で電圧に変換され充電制御部8に入る。充電制御部8は端子6と端子7を通ってきた信号により、電源部10を制御し、電流制限のない定電圧の電源として準備される。負荷電流が大きくなった時負荷制御部9は半導体スイッチ28をオンにして、半導体スイッチ28における電圧低下を防いでいる。
【0016】
次に、負荷装置2に二次電池4が接続された場合、スイッチ29により負荷制御部9は二次電池4が接続されたことを検知する。二次電池4はダイオード23と抵抗器24により低電流で充電される。負荷制御部9が大きな負荷電流のない状態に切り替わり、二次電池4を充電する制御に切り替わる場合、トランジスタ22をオフに、トランジスタ27をオンに切り替える。この時端子6を通る帰還電圧は二次電池4の電圧を示しており、抵抗器26および18の合成抵抗値と抵抗器19の抵抗値とで分割された電圧が充電制御部8に入る。この電圧値が前もって設定された電圧値以下の時、充電制御部8は電源部10の出力電流に制限を加える。負荷制御部9は二次電池を監視しており、電池電圧が前もって設定された基準電圧以上になった時半導体スイッチ25をオンにして、制限のある大きな充電電流で二次電池4を充電する。
【0017】
端子6を通る帰還電圧による充電制御部8の入力電圧が充電制御部8の前もって設定された基準電圧値以上になった場合、二次電池の特性で充電電流が減少し始めるので充電制御部8は電源部10の出力電流の制限を外すように動作する。また、端子7を通る帰還電流は抵抗器17で電圧に変換され、前もって設定された基準値と比較されその値以下になった時二次電池4が満充電になったと充電制御部8は判断する。
【0018】
負荷制御部9は二次電池4の電池電圧が前もって設定された基準電圧以上になった時から前もって設定された時間の後に半導体スイッチ28および25をオフにする。
【0019】
負荷装置9および二次電池4が充電装置1に接続され、更に二次電池3が接続され充電されるのは負荷制御部9が大きな負荷電流を消費せず、更に二次電池4が満充電となっている場合となる。
【0020】
また、二次電池3の充電中に負荷制御部9が大きな負荷電流を必要になった場合、負荷制御部9は前もって設定された時間だけ前もって設定された帰還電流を流し、抵抗器17を通して充電制御部8に信号として伝達することで、充電制御部8は二次電池3の充電を停止させ、電源部10の出力電流の制限を外し、負荷制御部9の大きな負荷電流に対し十分な電源が供給できるように制御する。
【0021】
負荷装置2に二次電池4が取り付けられ充電されている場合で、充電装置1の電源部10にAC入力がない場合、二次電池4に充電されている電力は半導体スイッチ25を通して負荷制御部9に加えられており、負荷制御部9は半導体スイッチ25をオンさせ、負荷制御部9は大きな負荷電流で動作することが可能となる。
【0022】
図2は定電圧で充電するタイプの二次電池を充電する場合の一般的充電特性を示すタイミングチャートである。図において、VaおよびVbは充電制御部8および負荷制御部9に設定されている基準電圧値である。Ibは充電制御部8および負荷制御部9に設定されている基準電流値である。充電電圧Vtは、低電流充電期間ToとTaの間の後、Vb以上になると大電流充電期間TaとTb間、そしてVa以上になると充電電流減少期間TbとTc期間へと進み二次電池は満充電となる。
【0023】
充電電流Iaは制限された電流値であり、基準電流値Ibは充電電流Itが減少し、満充電と判断するための設定値である。
【0024】
この図のタイミングチャートは二次電池3のみ充電装置1に取り付けられ充電を行う場合、および充電装置1に負荷装置2が取り付けられ二次電池4の充電を行う場合の充電の進行を示している。
【0025】
図3(a)は充電制御部8に制御される電源部10の出力の電源電圧と負荷電流に対する特性を示している。この特性で動作するのは負荷装置9が大きな負荷電流を必要としている時で、安定化電圧領域で使用される。
【0026】
図3(b)は充電制御部8に制御される電源部10の出力電源電圧と負荷電流に対する他の特性を示している。この特性で動作するのは二次電池3および二次電池4が充電される時で、通常、充電は低電流領域、定電流領域そして定電圧領域の順で進行する。
【0027】
は端子5,6および7の電圧と電流の状態を示したタイミングチャートである。無負荷期間は充電装置1のみが動作している状態で、端子5には電源部10の電源電圧が出ている。端子6および7は負荷装置2が接続されていないので、ゼロを示している。二次電池3充電期間は充電装置1に二次電池3が接続され、充電されていることを示している.負荷制御部9動作期間は充電装置1に負荷装置2が接続され、負荷制御部9が大きな負荷電流を必要とするための前準備のために基準電流Is以上の電流を端子7を通して帰還電流として充電装置1に流す。この帰還電流は抵抗器17で検知され充電制御部8に入る。充電制御部8は帰還電流が基準電流値Is以上であることを判断し電源部10の出力電流の制限を外す。この後負荷制御部9は大きな負荷電流で動作を始めることを示している。二次電池4充電期間は二次電池4が充電されていることを示し、最初二次電池の電池電圧が基準電圧Vb以下のため低電流で充電を始め基準電圧Vb以上になると大きな充電電流で充電する、その後電池電圧がVa以上になると、充電電流が減少し、端子7の帰還電流も減少する。帰還電流が基準電流Ia以下になると、充電制御部8は二次電池4が満充電になったと判断する。二次電池4の満充電後の充電電流の停止は負荷制御部9に入る二次電池4の電池電圧が基準電圧Va以上になってから、前もって設定された時間の後自動で半導体スイッチ25をオフにすることで行われる。
【0028】
このように、本実施例によれば、端子6の帰還電圧,端子7を通る帰還電流に応じて電源部10を制御し、充電装置1を所要の出力特性とすることができる。
【0029】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように本発明によれば、負荷が制御できまた二次電池が接続できてその充電の制御ができる負荷装置と、この負荷装置に電力を供給する充電装置とを、3端子以下という最小の端子数で接続し、充電装置を所要の出力特性とすることができる。

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples of a “power supply system”.
[0011]
【Example】
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a “power supply system” according to the embodiment. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a charging device. 2 is a load device, 3 and 4 are secondary batteries, 5, 6, and 7 are terminals for connecting between the charging device 1 and the load device 2, 8 is a charging control unit that controls the operation of the charging device 1, and 9 is a load. A load control unit that consumes a load current in the device 2 and controls charging of the secondary battery 4, a power supply unit that generates a power supply voltage, and a resistor 11 that limits a charging current that charges the secondary battery 3. , 12 is a transistor that controls the charging current of the secondary battery 3 through the resistor 11, 13 is a transistor that controls the charging current of a large current to the secondary battery 3, and 14 and 15 are the transistors that control the charging current of the secondary battery 3. A resistor for dividing (also referred to as a voltage division) the supplied charging voltage, a resistor 16 for detecting a charging current passing through the secondary battery 3, and a feedback current (including a charging current) from the load device 2. The detecting resistors, 18 and 19, are feedback voltages from the load device 2. A resistor for dividing, 20 is a switch for detecting that the secondary battery 3 is attached to the charging device 1, 21 is a resistor for supplying a voltage supplied to the load control unit 9 of the load device 2 to the resistor 18, Reference numeral 22 denotes a transistor controlled by the load control unit 9 to supply the voltage supplied to the load control unit 9 to the resistor 18, reference numeral 23 denotes a diode for preventing a backflow from the secondary battery 4, and reference numeral 24 denotes a low level power supply. A resistor for charging with current, 25 is a semiconductor switch controlled by the load control unit 9 for charging the secondary battery 4, 26 is a resistor for supplying the voltage of the secondary battery 4 to the resistor 18, and 27 is a secondary A transistor controlled by the load control unit 9 to supply the voltage of the battery 4 to the resistor 18. A semiconductor switch 28 controls power supplied from the charging device 1 to the load device 2 to prevent a backflow from the secondary battery 4. , 2 Is a switch for detecting that the load device 2 secondary battery 4 is mounted.
[0012]
In the above-described configuration, the charging device 1 is connected to the load device 2 through the three terminals 5, 6, and 7 to supply power, and the charging current to the secondary battery 4 and the load control The supply of the load current to the unit 9 and the supply of the charging current to the secondary battery 3 are optimally controlled.
[0013]
When only the secondary battery 3 is connected to the charging device 1, the switch 20 detects this, and the charging control unit 8 turns on the transistor 12 to start charging at a low current, and is divided by the resistors 14 and 15. The voltage is monitored. When the voltage exceeds a preset reference voltage, the transistor 13 is turned on. When charging proceeds with the secondary battery 3 of a type that charges at a constant voltage, the charging current decreases due to the characteristics of the secondary battery. The charging current is converted to a voltage by the resistor 16 and enters the charging control unit 8, where it is converted from an analog voltage value to a digital voltage value, compared with a reference value, and used for control.
[0014]
The charging control unit 8 controls the power supply unit 10 and limits the charging current value when charging the secondary battery 3 at a low current while charging the secondary battery 3, and limits the large current value when the transistor 13 is turned on. If the voltage of the secondary battery 3 exceeds a preset reference voltage after the charging is started, the charging current starts to decrease due to the characteristics of the secondary battery, so that the control of the charging current is removed. When the charging current becomes equal to or less than a preset current value, it is determined that the secondary battery 3 is fully charged, and the charging control unit 8 turns off the transistors 12 and 13.
[0015]
When only the load device 2 without the secondary battery 4 is connected to the charging device 1, the load control section 9 turns on the transistor 22, turns off the transistor 27, and turns off the semiconductor switches 25 and 28. The power supply voltage of the charging device 1 is applied between the terminals 5 and 7 and enters the load device 2. The power supply voltage passes through the transistor 22 and the terminal 6 to become a feedback voltage, is divided by the combined resistance value of the resistors 21 and 18 and the resistance value of the resistor 19, and enters the charge control unit 8. The feedback current that has passed through the load device 2 passes through the terminal 7 and is converted into a voltage by the resistor 17 and enters the charge control unit 8. The charge control unit 8 controls the power supply unit 10 based on signals passed through the terminals 6 and 7, and is prepared as a constant voltage power supply without current limitation. When the load current increases, the load control unit 9 turns on the semiconductor switch 28 to prevent a voltage drop in the semiconductor switch 28.
[0016]
Next, when the secondary battery 4 is connected to the load device 2, the load control unit 9 detects that the secondary battery 4 is connected by the switch 29. The secondary battery 4 is charged with a low current by the diode 23 and the resistor 24. When the load control unit 9 switches to a state without a large load current and switches to control for charging the secondary battery 4, the transistor 22 is turned off and the transistor 27 is turned on. At this time, the feedback voltage passing through the terminal 6 indicates the voltage of the secondary battery 4, and the voltage divided by the combined resistance value of the resistors 26 and 18 and the resistance value of the resistor 19 enters the charge control unit 8. When this voltage value is equal to or less than a preset voltage value, the charging control unit 8 limits the output current of the power supply unit 10. The load control unit 9 monitors the secondary battery, and turns on the semiconductor switch 25 when the battery voltage becomes equal to or higher than a preset reference voltage, and charges the secondary battery 4 with a limited large charging current. .
[0017]
When the input voltage of the charging control unit 8 due to the feedback voltage passing through the terminal 6 becomes equal to or higher than the reference voltage value set in advance of the charging control unit 8, the charging current starts to decrease due to the characteristics of the secondary battery. Operates so as to remove the limitation of the output current of the power supply unit 10. Further, the feedback current passing through the terminal 7 is converted into a voltage by the resistor 17 and compared with a reference value set in advance. When the feedback current falls below that value, the charge control unit 8 determines that the secondary battery 4 is fully charged. I do.
[0018]
The load controller 9 turns off the semiconductor switches 28 and 25 after a preset time from when the battery voltage of the secondary battery 4 becomes higher than a preset reference voltage.
[0019]
The load device 9 and the secondary battery 4 are connected to the charging device 1 and the secondary battery 3 is connected and charged because the load control unit 9 does not consume a large load current and the secondary battery 4 is fully charged. It becomes when it becomes.
[0020]
If the load control unit 9 needs a large load current during charging of the secondary battery 3, the load control unit 9 supplies a preset feedback current for a preset time and charges the battery through the resistor 17. By transmitting the signal to the control unit 8, the charging control unit 8 stops charging the secondary battery 3, removes the limitation of the output current of the power supply unit 10, and supplies a sufficient power to the large load current of the load control unit 9. Is controlled to be supplied.
[0021]
When the secondary battery 4 is attached to the load device 2 and charged, and when there is no AC input to the power supply unit 10 of the charging device 1, the power charged in the secondary battery 4 is supplied to the load control unit through the semiconductor switch 25. 9, the load control unit 9 turns on the semiconductor switch 25, and the load control unit 9 can operate with a large load current.
[0022]
FIG. 2 is a timing chart showing general charging characteristics when a secondary battery of a type charged at a constant voltage is charged. In the figure, Va and Vb are reference voltage values set in the charge control unit 8 and the load control unit 9. Ib is a reference current value set in the charge control unit 8 and the load control unit 9. After the charging voltage Vt is between the low current charging periods To and Ta, if it becomes Vb or more, it goes between the large current charging periods Ta and Tb, and if it becomes more than Va, it goes to the charging current decreasing periods Tb and Tc and the secondary battery is charged. It will be fully charged.
[0023]
The charging current Ia is a limited current value, and the reference current value Ib is a set value for determining that the charging current It decreases and the battery is fully charged.
[0024]
The timing chart in this figure shows the progress of charging when only the secondary battery 3 is attached to the charging device 1 to perform charging, and when the load device 2 is attached to the charging device 1 to charge the secondary battery 4. .
[0025]
FIG. 3A shows characteristics of the output of the power supply unit 10 controlled by the charge control unit 8 with respect to the power supply voltage and the load current. This characteristic operates when the load device 9 requires a large load current, and is used in the stabilized voltage region.
[0026]
FIG. 3B shows another characteristic of the power supply unit 10 controlled by the charge control unit 8 with respect to the output power supply voltage and the load current. The operation with this characteristic is when the secondary battery 3 and the secondary battery 4 are charged. Generally, the charging proceeds in the order of the low current region, the constant current region, and the constant voltage region.
[0027]
FIG. 4 is a timing chart showing the states of the voltages and currents at terminals 5, 6 and 7. During the no-load period, only the charging device 1 is operating, and the power supply voltage of the power supply unit 10 is output to the terminal 5. Terminals 6 and 7 show zero because the load device 2 is not connected. The secondary battery 3 charging period indicates that the secondary battery 3 is connected to the charging device 1 and is being charged. During the operation period of the load control unit 9, the load device 2 is connected to the charging device 1, and a current equal to or more than the reference current Is is supplied as a feedback current through the terminal 7 for preparation for the load control unit 9 to require a large load current. It flows to the charging device 1. This feedback current is detected by the resistor 17 and enters the charge control unit 8. The charging control unit 8 determines that the feedback current is equal to or larger than the reference current value Is, and removes the limitation of the output current of the power supply unit 10. Thereafter, the load controller 9 starts operating with a large load current. The charging period of the secondary battery 4 indicates that the secondary battery 4 is being charged. First, the battery voltage of the secondary battery is equal to or lower than the reference voltage Vb. After charging, when the battery voltage becomes equal to or higher than Va, the charging current decreases, and the feedback current of the terminal 7 also decreases. When the feedback current becomes equal to or less than the reference current Ia, the charge control unit 8 determines that the secondary battery 4 is fully charged. The charge current is stopped after the secondary battery 4 is fully charged. The semiconductor switch 25 is automatically turned off after a preset time from when the battery voltage of the secondary battery 4 entering the load control unit 9 becomes equal to or higher than the reference voltage Va. This is done by turning it off.
[0028]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, the power supply unit 10 is controlled in accordance with the feedback voltage at the terminal 6 and the feedback current passing through the terminal 7, and the charging device 1 can have required output characteristics.
