Power supply system
A power supply system includes two first power paths for supplying electric power to a first device, and two second power paths for supplying electric power to a second device. One of the first power paths is configured to be able to supply power to the second device, and one of the second power paths is configured to be able to supply power to the first device.
1. A power supply system comprising:
only two first power paths connected to a first device, the two first power path supplying electric power to the first device; and
only two second power paths connected to a second device, the two second power path supplying electric power to the second device, wherein
one of the first power paths is configured to be able to constantly supply electric power to the first device or the second device,
another one of the first power paths is configured to be able to constantly supply electric power to the first device,
one of the second power paths is configured to be able to constantly supply electric power to the second device or the first device, and
another one of the second power paths is configured to be able to constantly supply electric power to the second device.
2. The power supply system according to claim 1 , further comprising
a switch for switching a destination of power supply by the one of the first power paths to either the first device or the second device, and switching a destination of power supply by the one of the second power paths to either the second device or the first device.
3. The power supply system according to claim 2 , wherein
the switch switches a state between
a state in which the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths is set to the first device and the destination of the power supply by the one of the second power paths is set to the second device, and
a state in which the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths and the one of the second power paths is set to either the first device or the second device.
4. The power supply system according to claim 2 , further comprising
a control device that controls operation of the switch to switch the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths and the one of the second power path, based on power consumption of at least one of the first device and the second device.
5. The power supply system according to claim 4 , wherein
in a state in which the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths is the first device and the destination of the power supply by the one of the second power paths is the second device, when the power consumption of the first device or the second device exceeds electric energy available from the two first power paths or the two second power paths, the control device controls the operation of the switch to switch the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths and the one of the second power paths to either the first device or the second device.
6. The power supply system according to claim 4 , wherein
in a state in which the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths and the one of the second power paths is either the first device or the second device, when the power consumption of the first device or the second device becomes lower than electric energy available from the two first power paths or the two second power paths, the control device controls the operation of the switch to switch the destination of the power supply by the one of the first power paths to the first device and switch the destination of the power supply by the one of the second power paths to the second device.
7. The power supply system according to claim 4 , wherein
the control device sets an upper limit value of the power consumption of at least one of the first device and the second device such that total power consumption of the first device and the second device does not exceed electric energy available from the two first power paths and the two second power paths.
8. The power supply system according to claim 4 , wherein
the control device sets an upper limit value of the power consumption of the first device or the second device to a value of electric energy available from another one of the first power paths or another one of the second power paths.
