Description

  The present invention relates to a power supply system that includes a power supply device and a plurality of electrical devices that are sequentially connected in cascade from the power supply device and receive power from the power supply device.

  As described above, an example of an electric razor with a cleaning device can be given as a power supply system that can supply power to a plurality of electric devices from a single power supply device. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of the power supply system. As shown in FIG. 12A, an electric razor 102 can be connected to a power supply device 101 such as an RCC (ringing choke converter), and a cleaning device 103 can be connected as shown in FIG. 12B. It has become. Then, as shown in FIG. 12B, in the state where the electric razor 102 is mounted on the cleaning device 103, not only the blade edge of the electric razor 102 is cleaned, but also the electric razor 102 can be charged. ing.

  However, in this case, since the power supply apparatus 101 outputs direct current (DC), for example, 12 V, charging the cleaning drive circuit 104 in the cleaning apparatus 103 and the electric razor 102 mounted on the cleaning apparatus 103 is performed. However, the power supply device 101 needs to be connected to the cleaning device 103 or the electric razor 102 by the contact type contact point 105. In addition, since the power supply device 101 supplies power at the high voltage of 12 V corresponding to the cleaning device 103 with high power consumption, the voltage is lowered to a voltage suitable for charging the secondary battery 106 in the electric razor 102. A step-down power supply 107 is required, and the electric razor 102 is enlarged.

  On the other hand, electric razors often used around water, such as a washroom, have a demand to supply power without contact (non-contact). FIG. 13 shows a configuration of a conventional power feeding system that realizes contactless power feeding. The commercial alternating current input to the power supply device 112 via the power cord 111 is converted to direct current by the AC-DC converter 113 and converted to high frequency alternating current by the voltage resonance type inverter 114, and the power output terminal on the power supply device 112 side.

Then, power is supplied to a load 119 composed of a secondary battery and a motor. The converter 118 is an AC-DC converter and is smaller than the DC-DC converter of the step-down power supply 107 described above.

  Therefore, when the non-contact power supply system shown in FIG. 13 is applied to a power supply system to which a plurality of electric devices including the cleaning device 103 shown in FIG. 12 can be connected, the result is as shown in FIG. The power supply device 121 includes a voltage resonance type inverter or the like, and outputs, for example, 50 kHz, 30 V to the power transmission coil 124 by alternating current (AC). The power receiving coil 125 of the electric razor 122 can be connected to the power transmitting coil 124 in a non-contact manner as shown in FIG. 14A, and the power receiving coil 126 of the cleaning device 123 is shown in FIG. 14B. Can be connected without contact.

  14B, an AC-DC converter 127 is provided in the cleaning device 123. The AC-DC converter 127 generates, for example, DC12V, and the cleaning drive circuit 128 is provided. To be supplied. Further, in order to charge the cleaning device 123 with the electric razor 122 mounted thereon, the cleaning device 123 is composed of a voltage resonance type inverter and the like, and an inverter 129 that outputs, for example, 50 kHz and 30 V, and a power transmission coil. 130 is provided.

Here, the example of the parallel electric power feeding by electromagnetic induction is also shown by patent document 1, for example. In this prior art, a plurality of primary side coils are embedded in a wall as an outlet body in parallel, and the secondary side coil connected to a load is fitted into the outlet body as an outlet cap, thereby making contactless. This is an electromagnetic outlet device that enables simultaneous power supply to multiple loads.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-101110

  Therefore, in the configuration as shown in FIG. 14, a new converter 127 and inverter 129 are required in the cleaning device 123 in order to realize non-contact power feeding, leading to an increase in size and cost. become.

In the case of the sine wave, it becomes a trapezoidal wave in the case of the partial resonance type inverter, so that the high frequency noise component is reduced, so that the radiation noise from the high frequency electric wire HFC having a relatively long extension distance can be reduced. Also, radiation noise due to leakage magnetic fields from the coils CL11, CL21; CL12, CL22; CL13, CL23; CL33, CL43 in the contactless connection method can be reduced.

The voltage induced in the CL 43 can be adjusted, and the voltage can be set to a desired voltage value. Adjustment of the distance between the coils CL11; CL12; CL13; CL33 as the power supply output terminals and the coils CL21; CL22; CL23; CL43 as the power input terminals is performed by, for example, the power supply devices 12 and 13 and the first electric device 21. , 22, 23 and the second electric device 32, 33 in the housing (housing) by adjusting the thickness of the portion corresponding to the coil CL11; CL12; CL13; CL33, the coil CL21; CL22; CL23; can do.
