<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power supply device for a vehicle capable of easily securing the wiring path for power cables. <P>SOLUTION: The vehicle applicable is of hybrid automobile type using together a high voltage battery 12 and a battery 16 for an auxiliary unit which are installed in the rear of the vehicle, wherein a fusible link box 18 is installed in the neighborhood of the 12 V battery 16 for auxiliary unit. The power cables 38 as the output line of a DC/DC converter 14 to perform voltage transformation between the batteries 12 and 16 are not returned to an engine room, but connected with the fusible link box 18. An EFI unit 24 having high importance should necessarily operate continuously even if an excessive current flows to cause a fusible link 44 to sever at the time of charging from the DC/DC converter 14 to the battery 16. The power cables 34 and a fusible link 42 are made specific to the EFI unit 24 having a comparatively small power consumption, which facilitates securing the wiring path for the power cables 34. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
