Abstract

A power management system includes a battery charging system, a power supplying system, a first switching module, and a second switching module. The power management system is switched between the battery charging system and the power supplying system via the first switching module and the second switching module. With a charging electric energy generated by the waveform generating module, the battery charging system could restore the aging battery or the battery with degraded performance to a better state when the batteries are charging. By sensing a battery state of batteries, the power supplying system provides a supplementing power to the batteries, and the supplementing power and a power of the batteries could be supplied to a load together.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An operating method of a power supplying system, wherein said power supplying system is adapted to supply a power to a load; said power supplying system comprises a plurality of batteries and a control device; said control device is electrically connected to a positive electrode and a negative electrode of each of said plurality of batteries; and said operating method comprising steps of:
A. sensing a parameter value of each of said plurality of batteries by said control device; and
B. determining whether the parameter value of any of said plurality of batteries is smaller than a predetermined value;
if so, sending a supplementing power to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the corresponding battery which has the parameter value smaller than the predetermined value, and supplying electricity to said load from both of the supplementing power and the power of the batteries;
otherwise, sending the power of the batteries to said load.

2. The operating method of claim 1 , wherein said control device includes a sensing module and a power supplementing module; in step A, said sensing module senses the parameter value of each of said plurality of batteries; in step B, said power supplementing module outputs the supplementing power.

3. The operating method of claim 1 , wherein the parameter value in step A is a current between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of each of said plurality of batteries; and the supplementing power in step B is a current.
