Abstract

The present invention relates to a charging controller for electric walkers comprising a charging controller and a charging driver both of which are fitted to the basic circuit of the main processor of the electric walker. Accordingly, the charging operation of the electric walker can be easily performed through a commercially available rectifier with certain rectified voltage. After the charging controller in connection with the rectifier to detect the inflow of the external power, the external current will be immediately supplied to the battery for executing the charging operation. Thereafter, this message will be sent to a microprocessor while the charging driver disconnects the linking circuit between the microprocessor and a motor after the actuation of the charging operation.

Claims

1. A charging controller for electric walkers comprising a charging controller and a charging driver both of which are fitted to the basic circuit of the main processor of the electric walker such that the charging operation of the electric walker can be easily performed through a commercially available rectifier with certain rectified voltage;

whereby, after the charging controller in connection with the rectifier to detect the inflow of the external power, the external current will be immediately supplied to the battery for executing the charging operation, whereupon this message will be sent to a microprocessor and the charging driver disconnects the linking circuit between the microprocessor and a motor after the actuation of the charging operation.
