Power transmission device and non-contact power feeding system
First Claim
1. A power transmission device which can transmit power to a power reception device by a magnetic field resonance method, the power transmission device comprising:
- a power transmission-side resonant circuit which includes a power transmission-side coil for performing the power transmission;
a power transmission circuit which can supply an alternating current voltage to the power transmission-side resonant circuit;
a detection circuit which detects an amplitude of a current flowing through the power transmission-side coil; and
a control circuit which performs power transmission control on the power by controlling a state of the supply of the alternating current voltage to the power transmission-side resonant circuit,wherein before the power transmission, the control circuit acquires, as a determination amplitude detection value, a detection value by the detection circuit when a predetermined determination alternating current voltage is supplied to the power transmission-side resonant circuit, and controls, based on the determination amplitude detection value, performance of the power transmission through a determination as to whether or not the power reception device can perform proper power reception.

Abstract
In a non-contact power feeding system which is formed with a power transmission device that includes a power transmission-side resonant circuit including a power transmission-side coil and a power reception device that includes a power reception-side resonant circuit including a power reception-side coil and which can transmit and receive power by a magnetic field resonance method, the control circuit of the power transmission device supplies, before the power transmission, a predetermined determination alternating current voltage to the power transmission-side resonant circuit so as to detect the amplitude of a current flowing through the power transmission-side coil at that time. The control circuit controls the performance of the power transmission based on the current amplitude detection value.
