Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve charging efficiency to shorten the charging time by connecting the output of a plurality of chargers included in a battery charging device, in common. SOLUTION: The output terminals of a plurality of chargers 101-10n of a battery charging device are connected in common. The output terminals are connected to an output terminal 15 and led to a battery 7 via a switch 1 and the like. The input of the chargers 101-10n is connected in common. AC power supplied from an AC supply 9 or the like through an input terminal 13 is converted into DC power. According to the type of the battery 7 or the charged state, the charger with a suitable characteristic is selected out of a plurality of chargers 101-10n and put in action. Charging efficiency is therefore improved. When charging the battery 7, in a certain time region after the start of charging where large output power is demanded, the first charger 101 and second charger 102 are simultaneously put in action. The battery 7 can therefore be charged rapidly to shorten the charging time.
