Abstract: A SS-method bidirectional contactless power supply device is arranged such that at the time of G2V, a second power converter converts commercial alternating current to direct current, a first power converter converts the direct current to high-frequency alternating current, and a third power converter converts the high-frequency alternating current to the direct current to charge an electric storage device. On driving the first power converter with a constant voltage, the electric storage device is charged with a constant current. At the time of V2G, the third power converter converts the direct current to the high-frequency alternating current, the first power converter converts the high-frequency alternating current to the direct current, and the second power converter converts the direct current to the commercial alternating current. On driving the third power converter with the constant current, an output of the first power converter becomes the constant voltage.

Abstract: A rush current suppression circuit is used with a power supply circuit which includes a common line and an input voltage detection circuit and supplies power from an input power supply via a switching circuit. There is provided a smoothing capacitor coupled to an output end of the power supply circuit, and a rapid discharge and delay circuit coupled to the input voltage detection circuit and carrying out a rapid discharge and a time delay and controlling the switching circuit. The switching circuit includes two FETs which are coupled in series to the common line, and the two FETs have sources which are coupled to each other and gates which are coupled to each other and driven by the rapid discharge and delay circuit.
