Abstract
A device for emergency supply of a high voltage onboard network, in particular for the emergency load lowering of a work machine such as a crane or a cable excavator, comprising a high voltage onboard network having an electrical drive unit and a primary DC energy source for supplying the electrical drive unit with energy; a low voltage onboard network, preferably a 12 V, 24 V, or 48 V onboard network, having a low voltage rechargeable battery for taking up and outputting energy, wherein the high voltage onboard network and the low voltage onboard network are connected via a DC/DC converter to allow an energy flow from the high voltage onboard network in the direction of the low voltage onboard network. The DC/DC converter is preferably a bidirectional DC/DC converter to permit an energy flow from the low voltage onboard network in the direction of the high voltage onboard network.
