BODY-INSERTABLE APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A body-insertable apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of function executing units each of which executes a predetermined function;
a power source that supplies an electric power to each of the function executing units;
an electric power storing unit that is connected to the power source and temporarily stores a redundancy of the electric power supplied from the power source; and
an electric power discharging switch that supplies the electric power stored during a temporal period by the electric power storing unit to a high-power function executing unit being one of the function executing units, the high-power function executing unit operating intermittently among the function executing units and temporarily consuming a large electric quantity compared to the other function executing units, the high-power function executing unit consuming the electric power supplied from the electric power storing unit together with the electric power directly supplied from the power source.

Abstract
A body-insertable apparatus includes a plurality of function executing units each of which executes a predetermined function; a power source that supplies an electric power to each of the function executing units; an electric power storing unit that is connected to the power source and temporarily stores a redundancy of the electric power supplied from the power source; and an electric power discharging switch that supplies the electric power stored during a temporal period by the electric power storing unit to a high-power function executing unit being one of the function executing units. The high-power function executing unit operates intermittently among the function executing units and temporarily consumes a large electric quantity compared to the other function executing units. The high-power function executing unit consumes the electric power supplied from the electric power storing unit together with the electric power directly supplied from the power source.
