Abstract: Provided is a power conversion device that can suppress a surge to be generated when a load, such as a battery, is disconnected from an output of an AC generator. A rectifier circuit connected between an output portion of the AC generator and a first load rectifies the output of the AC generator and supplies the rectified output to the first load. A switch circuit connected between the output portion of the AC generator and the second load rectifies the output of the AC generator and supplies the rectified output to the second load, on condition that a drive signal is in a first signal state indicating permission of a power supply from the AC generator to the second load. Additionally, the switch circuit transitions from a conductive state to a non-conductive state in response to the output of the AC generator, on condition that the drive signal is in a second signal state indicating prohibition of the power supply from the AC generator to the second load.

Abstract: A rectification processor includes rectifier elements that control charge to batteries independently for each of the batteries. A charge-state detector detects charge states of the batteries from their voltages, and determines whether to select the batteries for charging in a half-cycle determined beforehand in accordance with the detected result. A synchronous signal detector detects a signal synchronized with the phase of the 3-phase alternate current (AC) generator from the 3-phase AC generator, and outputs a synchronous signal. A charge controller controls the charge in the rectification processor in synchronization with the 3-phase AC generator according to the synchronous signal from the synchronous signal detector, and, in accordance with the charge states of the batteries output from the charge-state detector, controls charge amounts to the battery/batteries that was determined for selection.
