==PORTABLE POWER SUPPLY WITH BIDIRECTIONAL CHARGING AND PASSTHROUGH - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18493911 titled 'PORTABLE POWER SUPPLY WITH BIDIRECTIONAL CHARGING AND PASSTHROUGH

==Simplified Explanation==

A portable power supply with AC power input and output interfaces, a battery core, a charger, an inverter, and a controller.

* The portable power supply includes an AC power input interface and an AC power output interface.
* It also has a battery core and a charger connected to the AC power input interface.
* An inverter is configured to output AC power to the AC power output interface.
* The controller controls the charger to provide DC power to the inverter when AC power is requested at the output interface.
* The battery core selectively outputs or receives power based on the power consumption of the inverter.

== Potential Applications ==
The portable power supply can be used in various applications such as:
* Emergency power backup systems
* Outdoor activities and camping
* Powering electronic devices on the go

== Problems Solved ==
This technology solves the following problems:
* Providing a portable power source for electronic devices
* Ensuring continuous power supply in remote locations
* Offering a backup power solution during power outages

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this portable power supply include:
* Portability and convenience
* Reliable power source for electronic devices
* Versatile applications in different settings

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
The portable power supply can be commercially applied in:
* Outdoor equipment stores
* Emergency preparedness retailers
* Electronic device manufacturers

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art for this technology could be portable power banks with limited capacity and output options.

== Unanswered Questions ==

=== How does the controller determine the power consumption of the inverter? ===
The controller may use sensors or monitoring devices to track the power usage of the inverter and adjust the battery core's power output accordingly.

=== What safety features are included in the portable power supply? ===
Safety features such as overcharge protection, short circuit prevention, and temperature control may be integrated into the design of the portable power supply to ensure safe operation.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A portable power supply including an alternating current (“AC”) power input interface, an AC power output interface, a battery core, a charger electrically connected to the AC power input interface, an inverter configured to output AC power to the AC power output interface, and a controller configured to, when the charger is active and AC power is requested at the AC power output interface, control the charger to provide direct current (“DC”) power to the inverter. When the charger is active, the battery core selectively outputs or receives power based on a power consumption of the inverter.
