Electronic apparatus and method
First Claim
1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a power receiving means configured to wirelessly receive power from a power supply apparatus;
a communication means configured to communicate with the power supply apparatus;
a temperature detection means configured to detect a temperature;
a detection means configured to detect whether the electronic apparatus is in a first state or a second state based on the temperature detected by the temperature detection means,wherein the first state is a state in which the temperature is equal to or higher than a first temperature and lower than a second temperature, andwherein the second state is a state in which the temperature is equal to or higher than the second temperature; and
a load means configured to be supplied with power received by the power receiving means,characterized in that the electronic apparatus further includes a control means configured to;
(i) if the detection means detects that the electronic apparatus is in the first state, request the power supply apparatus to restrict a power output; and
(ii) if the detection means detects that the electronic apparatus is in the second state, restrict the power receiving means to supply power to the load means.

Abstract
An electronic apparatus includes a power receiving means for wirelessly receiving power, a detection means for detecting whether the electronic apparatus is in a predetermined state, a load means supplied with power from the power receiving means, and a control means that performs control so a second power is supplied from the power receiving means to the load means if the detection means detects that the electronic apparatus is in the predetermined state and a first power is supplied from the power receiving means to the load means, wherein the second power is lower than the first power, and the control means further performs control so the first power is supplied from the power receiving means to the load means if the detection means detects the electronic apparatus is in a state different from the predetermined state and the supplied power is reduced to a predetermined power value or less.

8. A method for controlling an electronic apparatus having the power receiving means and the load means, the method comprising:
-
wirelessly receiving power from a power supply apparatus; detecting a temperature; detecting whether the electronic apparatus is in a first state or a second state based on the temperature detected by the detecting, wherein the first state is a state in which the temperature is equal to or higher than a first temperature and lower than a second temperature, and wherein the second state is a state in which the temperature is equal to or higher than the second temperature; performing control to, if the electronic apparatus is in the first state, request the power supply apparatus to restrict a power output; and performing control to, if the electronic apparatus is in the second state, restrict the power supply from the power receiving means to the load means. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
