Non-contact power supply system
First Claim
1. A non-contact power supply system comprising:
- a power supply device for transmitting high frequency power; and
a load device which contactlessly receives the high frequency power transmitted from the power supply device by electromagnetic induction to supply the high frequency power to a load,wherein the power supply device includes a power transmission unit having a primary power coil for power transmission and an inverter circuit for supplying high frequency current to the primary power coil;
an inquiry unit having a primary signal coil for receiving a signal from the load device and an oscillation circuit, the primary signal coil being connected between output terminals of the oscillation circuit;
a signal detection unit for detecting the signal received by the primary signal coil; and
a control unit for controlling the power transmission unit according to the signal detected by the signal detection unit,wherein the load device includes the load;
a power reception unit having a secondary power coil for power reception which is magnetically coupled to the primary power coil and a power conversion unit which converts the high frequency power induced in the secondary power coil into power for the load;
a secondary signal coil which is magnetically coupled to the primary signal coil; and
a response unit which is operated by an electromotive force induced in the secondary signal coil to transmit the signal from the secondary signal coil, andwherein the control unit of the power supply device does not execute the power transmission from the power transmission unit when the signal detection unit does not detect the signal and executes the power transmission from the power transmission unit when the signal detection unit detects the signal.

Abstract
A non-contact power supply system includes a power supply device for transmitting high frequency power and a load device which receives the high frequency power in a non-contact mode by electromagnetic induction to supply it to a load. The power supply device includes a power transmission unit having a primary power coil and an inverter circuit, an inquiry unit having at least one primary signal coil and an oscillation circuit, a signal detection unit and a control unit. The load device includes a power reception unit having a secondary power coil magnetically coupled to the primary power coil and a power conversion unit, a secondary signal coil magnetically coupled to the primary signal coil, and a response unit which is operated by electromotive force induced in the secondary signal coil. The control unit stops power transmission when no signal is detected and executes power transmission which a signal is detected.
