1. A non-contact charging system comprising:
- a power receiving device which is a portable device and comprising a secondary coil; and
a non-contact charger which is comprises,a primary coil that applies a magnetic flux to the secondary coil of power receiving device for charging of the power receiving device in a non-contact manner, anda controller configured to control the charging of the power receiving device in accordance with predetermined procedures including receiving signals transmitted from the power receiving device, starting the charging, stopping the charging and restarting charging in a controlled manner,wherein the controller is configured to,(1) stop the charging temporarily upon receiving a signal from the power receiving device representing an abnormality of the power receiving device or upon detecting an abnormality of the charging in the non-contact charger, and(2) then restart the charging when a first predetermined time has lapsed after said procedure (1),wherein the non-contact charger is provided to a vehicle and configured to detect at least one of;
a shift position for changing a state of driving power transmission in the vehicle; and
an actuated state of a parking brake in the vehicle, andwherein the controller executes said procedure (1), but prohibits said procedure (2) under conditions that the shift position is in a position where no driving forces are transmitted to wheels of the vehicle or that the parking brake is in the actuated state when the controller receives the signal from the power receiving device representing the abnormality of the power receiving device or the abnormality of the charging in the non-contact charger.

Abstract
A non-contact charging system includes a power receiving device including a secondary coil, and a non-contact charger including a primary coil and a controller. The primary coil performs charging of the power receiving device through the secondary coil in a non-contact manner. Upon receiving a signal representing an abnormality of the power receiving device or detecting an abnormality of the charging in the non-contact charger, the controller stops the charging temporarily and executes procedures for restarting the charging when a first predetermined time has lapsed from the reception of the signal representing the abnormality or the detection of the abnormality of the charging.
