Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004159439
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a power breaker which does not require a collision detecting mechanism and an additional circuit.
When relays 14 and 16 are ON, a battery 10 and an inverter 12 are electrically connected with each other, and the output of the battery 10 is supplied to a motor 20 for vehicle travelling via the inverter 12. An ECU 18 switches on relays 14 and 16 by supplying the relays 14 and 16 with exciting currents via exciting lines 30 and 32. At collision of the vehicle, the supply of exciting currents to the relays 14 and 16 are severed by cutting edges for cutting off the exciting lines 30 and 32, and the battery 10 and the inverter 12 are electrically cut off.
