  • Power source apparatus
    Patent number: 6856047
    Abstract: A power source apparatus with a saving in wiring, large noise immunity and an additional function is achieved by connecting AC input bus lines (Vin+), (Vin?), DC output bus lines (Vo+), (Vo?) and a current balance signal bus line (CB) for connecting first, second, third power source units 1, 2, 3 through connectors to form a module power source and connecting an additional function unit 4 for adding a predetermined additional function to the module power source using the bus lines to this module power source through a connector.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 2, 2001
    Date of Patent: February 15, 2005
    Assignee: Omron Corporation
    Inventors: Haruyasu Murabayashi, Takashi Horie, Masashi Isozumi, Yasuhiro Tsubota, Tsunetoshi Ooba, Hideki Kobori, Takatoshi Ootomo, Katsuya Marumo, Tetsuya Yamamoto
  • Power supply
    Publication number: 20030058595
    Abstract: A power source apparatus with a saving in wiring, large noise immunity and an additional function is achieved by connecting AC input bus lines (Vin+), (Vin−), DC output bus lines (Vo+), (Vo−) and a current balance signal bus line (CB) for connecting first, second, third power source units 1, 2, 3 through connectors to form a module power source and connecting an additional function unit 4 for adding a predetermined additional function to the module power source using the bus lines to this module power source through a connector.

  • Power supply module utilizing expansion power supply units to increase power supply capacity
    Patent number: 6424547
    Abstract: A power supply module includes a plurality of power supply modules. One of the power supply units is designated as a master power supply unit. Other power supply units are handled as expansion power supply units. The power supply modules can be connected in parallel on a DIN rail so that the master power supply unit may supply an external AC voltage to the expansion power supply units. When a desired power supply capacity exceeds a power supply capacity of the master power supply unit, an expansion power supply unit is connected in parallel with the master power supply unit in order to increase the power supply capacity.
