Patent number: 10033164Abstract: A power line communication apparatus includes a power plug configured to connect to a power line, and a power plug receiver configured to connect to the power plug. The power line communication apparatus also includes a power line communicator configured to receive a signal transmitted through the power line, and a power supplier configured to generate power based on power received from the power plug and supply the generated power to the power line communication apparatus. The power line communication apparatus further includes a power board on which the power plug receiver is mounted, and a heat radiator that connects to the power line communicator and radiates heat generated from the power line communicator, wherein a portion of the heat radiator overlaps a portion of the power board when viewed perpendicular to the power board, and the portion of the power board does not include the power plug receiver.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2016Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Tomohiro Morita, Yoshimi Tokunaga, Yoshinori Kaneko, Shuichi Kuriyama
