5. AC/DC power converter with integrated backup power supply for adjustable furniture comprising:
-
an AC/DC power converter, a charging means, a battery, a control means, the control system for the adjustable furniture, and appropriate cabling means; where the AC/DC power converter with integrated backup power supply for adjustable furniture is wired with the battery as a line interactive battery; where AC power originates from a source, travels along the appropriate cabling means and enters the AC/DC power converter; where within the AC/DC power converter, the incoming AC power is converted to DC power; where after the power is converted to DC power, DC power exits the AC/DC power converter, travels along the appropriate cabling means, and part of said DC power travels directly to the control means along appropriate cabling means, while another portion of said DC power travels along appropriate cabling means to the charging means and then from the charging means along appropriate cabling means to the battery, and DC power can flow from the battery along appropriate cabling means to the control means; where the control means is also connected to the control system for the adjustable furniture; where the control means allows DC power to flow from the AD/DC power converter to the control system for the adjustable furniture when the control system for the adjustable furniture is activated but, when the control system for the adjustable furniture is activated and no DC power is being supplied from the AC/DC power converter, the control means closes the circuit from the battery and DC power flows from the battery, through the control means, to the control system for the adjustable furniture. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
