Abstract:
A charger ( 5 ) includes connecting parts ( 31, 32 ), a main converter ( 83 ), charging paths (Cpa, Cpb), switching elements (SWa, SWb), and a charging-control part ( 200 ). A first battery (Ba) having a first mounting part ( 11 ) and a second battery (Bb) having a second, different mounting part ( 21 ) are respectively mountable on the connecting parts ( 31, 32 ). The charging paths (Cpa, Cpb) respectively connect the main converter ( 83 ) to the connecting parts ( 31, 32 ). The switching elements (SWa, SWb) respectively connect or disconnect the charging paths (Cpa, Cpb) to/from the main converter ( 83 ). The charging-control part ( 200 ) selects one of the batteries (Ba, Bb) as the charging target and sets the charging path, to which the charging target (Ba, Bb) is connected, to the connected state. Then, the charger ( 5 ) charges the charging target to a predetermined voltage using a charging current suited to the charging target.

Claim (Index 12):
The charger according to  claim 11 , further comprising:\n a branch point at which the first and second charging paths respectively branch from the power supply circuit to the first and second switches; a first backfeed prevention part provided in the first charging path between the branch point and the first charging port; and a second backfeed prevention part provided in the second charging path between the branch point and the second charging port; wherein the first and second backfeed prevention parts are configured to respectively block current flow from the first and second charging ports to the branch point.
