First Claim
1. A contactless power supply device comprising:
- a power receiving portion placed in a middle in a vehicle width direction at a front portion on a lower surface of a floor panel of a vehicle;
a power supply portion located in a parking space to supply electric power to the vehicle without contact through magnetic connection between the power supply portion and the power receiving portion;
a battery placed on the floor panel; and
a wire harness for transmitting electric power from the battery to a motor unit placed in a front compartment of the vehicle, the wire harness passing above the power receiving portion and extending in a vehicle front-rear direction.

Abstract
A power receiving portion is installed in a middle in a vehicle width direction at a front portion on a lower surface of a floor panel close to steered front wheels. Therefore, the power receiving portion can be accurately aligned with a power supply portion on the road surface side so as to face each other with a sense of steering in such a manner as to align the center of a vehicle with the power supply portion when the vehicle advances to a predetermined stop position in a parking space. Moreover, a high-current system wire harness for transmitting electric power from a battery located on the lower surface of the floor panel to a motor unit in a front compartment passes above the power receiving portion so as to improve the safety of the wire harness.
