Patent ID: 11031770

Abstract:
An electric working machine in one aspect of the present disclosure includes a main current-path, a driving unit including a motor and at least one first semiconductor-switching-element, a controller, a bypass current-path, a second semiconductor-switching-element, and a switch driver. The main current-path is arranged between a positive electrode and a negative electrode of a battery. The driving unit is situated in the main current path. The bypass current-path is arranged in parallel with the driving unit. The second semiconductor-switching-element is situated in the bypass current-path. The switch driver causes the second semiconductor-switching-element to interrupt the bypass current-path in an event that a voltage value of a drive voltage applied to the driving unit is less than a threshold value, and causes the second semiconductor-switching-element to complete the bypass current-path in an event that the voltage value is equal to or greater than the threshold value.
