Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce reactive power in power-saving mode which consumes less power for standby in electronic equipment, such as image-forming devices which are equipped with energy-saving modes. SOLUTION: When a main switch 6 is turned on, an AC power supply 1 inputs power to the first power supply (energy-saving power supply) 8 of a DC power supply 7 to turn on an energy-saving control 12, and the equipment enters energy saving mode for standby. When an energy-saving cancel switch 15 is depressed, a contact 14s of the noise filter change-over relay 14 becomes on and switches a noise filter 3 to the constants for a large load current. Then, a contact 16s of a main power supply relay 16 is turned on to make the low- voltage power supply power to a main control 17, and the image-forming equipment is shifted to printing mode. Since the constants of the noise filter 3 are switched over responding to the consumed power, one single noise filter 3 can conduct efficient energy saving.

A power input of such a conventional image forming apparatus includes a noise filter 3 for suppressing noise generated in the apparatus and noise input to the image forming apparatus via a commercial power supply line, and an arrester 5 for absorbing surge. Etc. are provided. These means for suppressing noise are set so as to satisfy the performance at the time of operation in which the noise generated from the device is the largest. For this reason, when the image forming apparatus is in the energy-saving standby state where the power consumption is small, it is over-specified with respect to the noise generated in the image forming apparatus.
As a result, the input current IAC having a waveform as shown in FIG. 6 flows through the image forming apparatus during standby in the energy saving state. The input current mainly includes a component whose phase is advanced by 90 ° with respect to the voltage VAC of the AC power supply, and an in-phase peak current Ip flowing to the energy-saving power supply is synthesized. Analysis of the location where the phase-advance current occurs indicates that most of the location is generated by the noise filter 3. This current is sufficiently smaller than the operating current of the image forming apparatus, and has a small power consumption because it is out of phase with the power supply voltage. Accounts for most of the For this reason, the power factor during standby was not good in the conventional image forming apparatus.
