Patent Searching and Data


Title:
A small capacity power supply, an electric power system, and an image forming device
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6172564
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A system for minimizing damage based on excess current or voltage is described in which a connection between an AC power supply and a smoothing circuit is interrupted. The system may include capacitors and relays located between the AC power supply and a rectifier. By determining that a voltage or current is greater than a threshold level, the relay or relays may be opened. For instance, the increased voltage or current may be due to a failure of one or the capacitors, resulting in a short circuit across the capacitor. By opening the relay or relays, damage due to the excess current or voltage may be prevented from damaging downstream components.
