Title:
RELAY CONNECTOR AND BATTERY PACK
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/040900
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
In the present invention, the flow of stray charging current towards the load is prevented, a battery voltage is not output to a connector terminal, and the number of installed switching elements, which interrupt a power feeding path or cause the same to conduct, is minimized. A battery pack (100) is provided with a battery (10), which feeds power to the load (20) and is fed power from a charger (40), and includes: a relay connector (36) that contains a first, second, and third terminal; a first power-feeding wire (13) that connects the load and the relay connector first terminal; a second power-feeding wire (11) that connects one polarity terminal of the battery and the relay connector second terminal; a third power-feeding wire (16), one end of which is connected to the relay connector third terminal; and a switching element (16a) that is connected between the other end of the third power-feeding wire and the other polarity terminal of the battery. The relay connector first terminal and second terminal are short circuited by a jumper wire (37a) of a jumper plug (37), and the relay connector second terminal and third terminal are respectively connected by the charge connector (38) to one polarity and the other polarity power-feeding wires of the charger.
