Abstract

A coil for a non-contact power transmission system according to the present disclosure is used in a non-contact power transmission system to transmit electric power via a non-contact method. The coil includes a first coil in which a wire is wound around at a center of a core; and a second coil placed at an end of the core, and wound with the wire. Winding axes of the first and second coils are oriented in different directions.

Claims

1. A coil for use in a non-contact power transmission system transmitting electric power via a non-contact method, the coil comprising:

a first coil in which a wire is wound around at a center of a core, and

a second coil placed at an end of the core wound with the wire, wherein

winding axes of the first and second coils are oriented in different directions.

2. The coil for the non-contact power transmission system of claim 1, wherein

the winding axis of the second coil is perpendicular to the winding axis of the first coil.

3. The coil for the non-contact power transmission system of claim 1, wherein

in the second coil, the wire is wound in a swirl pattern in a plan view on an end surface of the core.

4. The coil for the non-contact power transmission system of claim 1, wherein

at the end of the core, the core has a bending portion bending along the winding axis of the second coil, and

in the second coil, the wire is wound around the bending portion of the core.

5. A non-contact power transmission system comprising:

a power supplier including a power transmitting coil; and

a power receiver including a power receiving coil, wherein

each of the power transmitting and receiving coils is the coil for the non-contact power transmission system of claim 1, and

the power transmitting and receiving coils are arranged with the respective second coils facing each other.
