  • Patent number: 10705586
    Abstract: A power distribution apparatus with a backup energy-storing function receives a first input power source, and the apparatus includes an output module, a conversion module, an energy storage unit, and a management unit. When the first input power source is normal, the output module outputs the first input power source. Also, the management unit controls the conversion module to convert the first input power source to a first power source for charging the energy storage unit. When the first input power source is abnormal, the energy storage unit outputs a second power source to the conversion module. Also, the management unit controls the conversion module to convert the second power source into a second input power source for outputting the second input power source from a second output module.
