AbstractA charge equalizer adapted a battery charger to equally charge series of connected battery strings, comprising battery voltage sensing circuits, a microcontroller, logic and driving circuits, and flyback converters, operates to prevent the batteries of the series of connected battery strings from overcharging by activating the flyback converters to draw out the overcharging currents of the batteries in the series of connected battery strings and charging the whole battery strings by recharging currents which proportion to said drawn out currents as detecting each of the battery voltages in the battery strings being higher than a pre-determined voltage value during charging and digitizing the detected battery voltage signals; so as to achieve the purposes of equal charge in each battery and hence to improve the life of the battery strings as a whole. | InventorsApplicationNo. 270651 filed on 03/16/1999US Classes:320/118, With discharge of cells or batteries320/119With individual charging of plural batteries or cellsField of Search320/116, SERIALLY CONNECTED BATTERIES OR CELLS320/118, With discharge of cells or batteries320/119, With individual charging of plural batteries or cells320/121, Switchable cells (e.g., for voltage regulation, etc.)320/127, BATTERY OR CELL DISCHARGING320/128, With charging320/139, Pulsed320/140, With DC-DC converter (e.g., flyback supply, etc.)320/141Pulse modulationExaminersPrimary: Tso, Edward H.Attorney, Agent or FirmUS Patent References5659237Battery charging using a transformer with a single primary winding and plural secondary windingsIssued on: 08/19/1997 Inventor: Divan, et al.
