 本出願は、2019年2月1日に出願された日本出願番号2019-017424号に基づくもので、ここにその記載内容を援用する。 This application is based on Japanese application No. 2019-017424 filed on February 1, 2019, and the contents of the description are incorporated herein.
 本開示は、送電機器から非接触で交流電力を受電する受電機器に関するものである。 The present disclosure relates to a power receiving device that receives contactless AC power from a power transmitting device.
 従来、電源コードや送電ケーブルを用いずに、非接触で相手側に電力伝送する非接触電力伝送装置として、磁界共振や電磁誘導を用いたものが知られている。例えば、特許文献1は、工場内等の軌道上を走行する搬送車に受電機器を設け、この受電機器に対して搬送車の移動経路に沿って配設された1次給電線から給電される構成を開示している。この受電機器では、受電機器に接続された負荷に応じて、給電された電力が変化する。そこで、この受電機器は、給電された電力を定電圧にする電圧制御手段を備えている。 Conventionally, as a non-contact power transmission device that transmits power to the other party in a contactless manner without using a power cord or power transmission cable, one that uses magnetic field resonance or electromagnetic induction is known. For example, in Patent Document 1, a power receiving device is provided in a carrier vehicle traveling on a track such as in a factory, and power is supplied to the power receiving device from a primary power supply line arranged along a moving route of the carrier vehicle. The configuration is disclosed. In this power receiving device, the supplied power changes according to the load connected to the power receiving device. Therefore, this power receiving device is provided with a voltage control unit that controls the supplied power to a constant voltage.

 ところで、道路に送電機器を埋設するとともに、道路を走行する自動車に受電機器を設け、走行中の車両において非接触で電力供給を行う技術が開発されている。道路上を走行する車両では、工場内等の軌道を走行する搬送車と異なり、道路状況や車両状況等で受電機器と送電機器との間の離間距離が変化する。受電機器と送電機器との間の離間距離が変化すると、電力伝送効率等が変化するため、受電機器から負荷に入力される電力が変動する。この変動に対応するためには、負荷側の容量を大きくしたり、部品を追加したりする必要がある。したがって、負荷への入力電力に変動が生じることは望ましくない。 By the way, a technology has been developed in which a power transmission device is embedded in a road and a power receiving device is provided in a vehicle traveling on the road to supply electric power to a moving vehicle in a contactless manner. In a vehicle traveling on a road, unlike a carrier vehicle traveling on a track in a factory or the like, a separation distance between a power receiving device and a power transmitting device changes depending on road conditions or vehicle conditions. When the distance between the power receiving device and the power transmitting device changes, the power transmission efficiency and the like change, so that the power input from the power receiving device to the load fluctuates. In order to cope with this fluctuation, it is necessary to increase the capacity on the load side or add components. Therefore, it is not desirable that the input power to the load fluctuates.
 本開示は、上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その主たる目的は、受電電力の変動に対して適切に対応できる受電装置を提供することにある。 The present disclosure has been made in view of the above problems, and its main purpose is to provide a power receiving device that can appropriately cope with fluctuations in received power.
 本手段は、交流電力が入力される1次コイルを有する送電機器から前記交流電力を受電して負荷に電力を供給する車載の受電機器であって、前記1次コイルから非接触で受電可能な2次コイルと、前記2次コイルに接続され、該2次コイルとともに共振回路を構成するコンデンサと、前記負荷と前記共振回路との間に設けられ、前記負荷への入力電力を調整する電力調整回路と、前記電力調整回路を制御する制御装置と、を備え、前記電力調整回路は、所定周期でオンオフされるスイッチを有しており、前記所定周期内における前記スイッチのオン時間が調整されることで、前記負荷への入力電力が調整されており、前記2次コイルと前記1次コイルとの離間距離を算出する距離算出部と、前記離間距離に基づいて、前記スイッチの前記オン時間を設定する時間設定部と、を有する。 The means is a vehicle-mounted power receiving device that receives the AC power from a power transmitting device having a primary coil to which AC power is input and supplies power to a load, and can receive power from the primary coil in a contactless manner. A secondary coil, a capacitor that is connected to the secondary coil and configures a resonance circuit together with the secondary coil, and a power adjuster that is provided between the load and the resonance circuit and that adjusts input power to the load. A circuit and a control device that controls the power adjustment circuit, wherein the power adjustment circuit has a switch that is turned on and off in a predetermined cycle, and the on time of the switch within the predetermined cycle is adjusted. Thus, the input power to the load is adjusted, the distance calculation unit that calculates the separation distance between the secondary coil and the primary coil, and the ON time of the switch based on the separation distance. And a time setting unit for setting.
 1次コイルと2次コイルとの間で、例えば磁界共振が成立することで、送電機器から受電機器に交流電力が伝送される。1次コイルと2次コイルとの間の磁界共振が成立するように、コンデンサや2次コイルが調整されている。そして、2次コイルで受電した電力が負荷に供給される。 AC power is transmitted from the power transmitting device to the power receiving device by, for example, establishing magnetic field resonance between the primary coil and the secondary coil. The capacitor and the secondary coil are adjusted so that magnetic field resonance is established between the primary coil and the secondary coil. Then, the electric power received by the secondary coil is supplied to the load.
 ところで、1次コイルと2次コイルとの離間距離の変化により、送電機器から受電機器に電力を伝送する効率が変化し、受電電力が変動する。例えば、車両の走行時においては、道路状況や車両状態によって、1次コイルと2次コイルとの離間距離の変化が生じやすくなると考えられる。受電電力が変動すると、負荷への入力電力が不安定となるため、受電電力の変動に対応する必要がある。また、道路上に送電機器を設ける場合には、道路上には種々の車両が通行するため、送電機器側ではなく、受電機器側で受電電力の変動に対応する必要がある。 By the way, due to the change in the separation distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil, the efficiency of transmitting power from the power transmitting device to the power receiving device changes, and the received power varies. For example, when the vehicle is running, it is considered that the separation distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil is likely to change depending on road conditions and vehicle conditions. When the received power fluctuates, the input power to the load becomes unstable, so it is necessary to deal with the fluctuation of the received power. Further, when a power transmission device is provided on the road, various vehicles pass on the road, and therefore it is necessary to deal with fluctuations in the received power on the power receiving device side rather than on the power transmitting device side.
 そこで、受電機器側で、1次コイルと2次コイルとの離間距離を算出し、この離間距離に基づいて、電力調整回路のスイッチのオン時間を算出し、負荷への入力電力を調整する。このように、受電機器側で、1次コイルと2次コイルとの離間距離の変化に基づいて、負荷への入力電力を調整することで、仮に走行中であっても、負荷への入力電力が不安定となることを抑制できる。 Therefore, on the power receiving device side, the separation distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil is calculated, and the on time of the switch of the power adjustment circuit is calculated based on this separation distance to adjust the input power to the load. As described above, by adjusting the input power to the load on the power receiving device side based on the change in the separation distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil, the input power to the load can be reduced even during traveling. Can be prevented from becoming unstable.

The switching element of the converter 26 is driven by the primary side drive circuit 27.
 インバータ25は、コンバータ26から供給された直流電力を所定の周波数の交流電力に変換する。インバータ25は、スイッチング素子のスイッチングにより、直流電流を所定の周波数の交流電流に変換する。インバータ25のスイッチング素子は、1次側駆動回路27により駆動される。 The inverter 25 converts the DC power supplied from the converter 26 into AC power having a predetermined frequency. The inverter 25 converts a direct current into an alternating current having a predetermined frequency by switching the switching element. The switching element of the inverter 25 is driven by the primary side drive circuit 27.
 インバータ25と1次側共振部23との間には、1次側フィルタ回路24が設けられているのが望ましい。1次側フィルタ回路24は、高周波成分がカットされるローパスフィルタの一種である。具体的には、1次側フィルタ回路24は、コイルと、コンデンサと、コイルとがT字状に接続されたイミタンスフィルタである。 A primary side filter circuit 24 is preferably provided between the inverter 25 and the primary side resonance section 23.

It is desirable that the primary side resonance part 23 and the secondary side resonance part 33 are configured by the SS system. The secondary side resonance part 33 is adjusted so that magnetic field resonance is established between the secondary side resonance part 33 and the primary side resonance part 23. Specifically, it is desirable that the resonance frequency of the secondary side resonance section 33 matches the resonance frequency of the primary side resonance section 23.
 そして、送電機器20と受電機器30との相対位置が、磁界共振が成立する位置にある状況において、インバータ25から所定の周波数の交流電力が入力されると、1次側共振部23(1次コイル21)と2次側共振部33(2次コイル31)とが磁界共振する。これにより、2次側共振部33は1次側共振部23から交流電力を受電する。なお、インバータ25から入力される交流電力の所定の周波数は、1次側共振部23と2次側共振部33間にて電力伝送が可能な周波数となっているとよい。具体的には、インバータ25で生成される交流電力の所定の周波数は、1次側共振部23と2次側共振部33の共振周波数に設定されていることが望ましい。 Then, when the relative position between the power transmitting device 20 and the power receiving device 30 is in a position where magnetic field resonance is established, when AC power of a predetermined frequency is input from the inverter 25, the primary side resonance unit 23 (primary side).

Specifically, the predetermined frequency of the AC power generated by the inverter 25 is preferably set to the resonance frequency of the primary side resonance section 23 and the secondary side resonance section 33.
 2次側共振部33と整流器35との間には、2次側フィルタ回路34が設けられている。2次側フィルタ回路34は、1次側フィルタ回路24と同様の構成を有している。2次側フィルタ回路34は、高周波成分がカットされるローパスフィルタの一種である。具体的には、2次側フィルタ回路34は、コイルと、コンデンサと、コイルとがT字状に接続されたイミタンスフィルタである。イミタンスフィルタ(2次側フィルタ回路34)は、インピーダンス・アドミタンス変換器であり、イミタンスフィルタの入力端から見たインピーダンスが、出力端に接続された負荷のアドミタンスに比例するように構成されたフィルタである。 A secondary side filter circuit 34 is provided between the secondary side resonance unit 33 and the rectifier 35. The secondary side filter circuit 34 has the same configuration as the primary side filter circuit 24. The secondary filter circuit 34 is a kind of low-pass filter that cuts high-frequency components. Specifically, the secondary filter circuit 34 is an immittance filter in which a coil, a capacitor, and a coil are connected in a T shape. The immittance filter (secondary-side filter circuit 34) is an impedance-admittance converter, and is a filter configured such that the impedance seen from the input end of the immittance filter is proportional to the admittance of the load connected to the output end. is there.
 整流器35は、交流電力を直流電力に変換する周知の構成である。整流器35は、例えば、4つのダイオードからなるダイオードブリッジ回路によって構成される。整流器35から出力される電力は、交流電力を全波整流した直流電力になる。 The rectifier 35 has a known configuration for converting AC power into DC power. The rectifier 35 is composed of, for example, a diode bridge circuit including four diodes. The power output from the rectifier 35 is DC power obtained by full-wave rectifying the AC power.
 整流器35で直流電力に変換された電力は、蓄電池17への入力電力Wを調整する電力調整回路40に入力される。電力調整回路40は、コイル41と、スイッチ42と、ダイオード43と、コンデンサ44とを備えている。電力調整回路40は、スイッチ42がオフになることで、2次コイル31側から蓄電池17への通電を可能とするチョッパ回路である。スイッチ42は、例えばMOSFET等の半導体スイッチング素子であって、2次側駆動回路45によって駆動される。スイッチ42をオンオフすることで、蓄電池17側に流す電力量を調整する。なお、スイッチ42は、半導体スイッチング素子ではなく、機械的なスイッチであってもよい。なお、電力調整回路40は、いわゆる昇圧チョッパ回路と同じ回路構成となっているが、出力される電圧は、蓄電池17の電池電圧に依存する。 The power converted into DC power by the rectifier 35 is input to the power adjustment circuit 40 that adjusts the input power W to the storage battery 17. The power adjustment circuit 40 includes a coil 41, a switch 42, a diode 43, and a capacitor 44. The power adjustment circuit 40 is a chopper circuit that allows the storage battery 17 to be energized from the secondary coil 31 side when the switch 42 is turned off. The switch 42 is a semiconductor switching element such as a MOSFET, and is driven by the secondary side drive circuit 45. By turning the switch 42 on and off, the amount of electric power flowing to the storage battery 17 side is adjusted. The switch 42 may be a mechanical switch instead of the semiconductor switching element. The power adjusting circuit 40 has the same circuit configuration as a so-called boost chopper circuit, but the output voltage depends on the battery voltage of the storage battery 17.

The switch 42 is controlled by PWM control in which the time for which the switch 42 is turned on in a predetermined cycle is controlled, and the output power is controlled by adjusting the on time (on duty) in a constant cycle.
 ところで、送電機器20を道路に埋設し、車両15の走行中に送受電を行う場合には、道路上には種々の車両が通行するため、道路内の送電機器20側ではなく、車載の受電機器30側で電力伝送効率の変化に対応することが望ましい。また、車両15の走行時において、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2等が変化すると、送電機器20から受電機器30に電力を伝送する効率が低下して、受電電力W0が変動する。 By the way, when the power transmission device 20 is buried in a road and power is transmitted and received while the vehicle 15 is traveling, various vehicles pass on the road, so that the power transmission device 20 is not mounted on the road but on the vehicle. It is desirable for the device 30 side to handle changes in power transmission efficiency. Further, when the distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 changes while the vehicle 15 is traveling, the efficiency of transmitting power from the power transmitting device 20 to the power receiving device 30 decreases, and the received power W0 increases. fluctuate.
 具体的には、車両15の走行時においては、道路状況や車両状態によって、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との間の離間距離h2の変化が生じやすくなると考えられる。具体的には、車両15の車速が上がると、走行風によって車両15の姿勢の変化や浮き上がりや沈み込みが発生し、それに起因して離間距離h2が変化する。車両15にかかるダウンフォースによって、車両15がその車両形状等に応じて浮き上がったり、押し下げられたりする。また、車両15の走行によって、タイヤの温度が上昇し、タイヤのガス圧が変化し、タイヤ径が大きくなることで、離間距離h2が大きくなることもある。さらに、燃料タンクを有する車両15の場合には、燃料の重量の増減により、車高が変化し、離間距離h2が変化する。 Specifically, it is considered that when the vehicle 15 is running, the separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 is likely to change depending on road conditions and vehicle conditions. Specifically, as the vehicle speed of the vehicle 15 increases, the running wind causes a change in the posture of the vehicle 15 and ups and downs of the vehicle 15, which causes the separation distance h2 to change. Due to the downforce applied to the vehicle 15, the vehicle 15 is lifted or pushed down according to the vehicle shape and the like. Further, as the vehicle 15 travels, the temperature of the tire rises, the gas pressure of the tire changes, and the tire diameter increases, which may increase the separation distance h2. Further, in the case of the vehicle 15 having the fuel tank, the vehicle height changes and the separation distance h2 changes as the weight of the fuel increases or decreases.
 1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2の変化により、送電機器20から受電機器30へ送受電する電力伝送効率が変化し、受電電力W0が変動する。受電電力W0が変動すると、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが不安定となる。また、蓄電池17の使用状況及び充電状況によって、電池電圧は変化する。車両15の走行中は、蓄電池17から電力が供給されたり充電されたりするため、電池電圧が変化する。そして、電池電圧が変化すると、受電電力W0が変化する。受電電力W0が変動すると、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが不安定となる。 The change in the separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 changes the power transmission efficiency for transmitting and receiving power from the power transmitting device 20 to the power receiving device 30, and the received power W0 fluctuates. When the received power W0 fluctuates, the input power W to the storage battery 17 becomes unstable. Further, the battery voltage changes depending on the usage status and the charging status of the storage battery 17. While the vehicle 15 is traveling, electric power is supplied from the storage battery 17 or charged, so that the battery voltage changes. Then, when the battery voltage changes, the received power W0 changes. When the received power W0 fluctuates, the input power W to the storage battery 17 becomes unstable.
 そこで、本実施形態のECU50は、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが所定の範囲内に調整されるように、電力調整回路40のスイッチ42のオン時間を制御する。送電機器20側ではなく、受電機器30側に設けられたECU50で、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2を算出し、この離間距離h2に基づいて、電力調整回路40のスイッチ42のオン時間を算出し、蓄電池17への入力電力Wを調整する。また、蓄電池17の電池電圧に応じて変動する受電電力W0に対して、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが一定となるように、電力調整回路40でのスイッチ42のオン時間を調整する。 Therefore, the ECU 50 of the present embodiment controls the on time of the switch 42 of the power adjustment circuit 40 so that the input power W to the storage battery 17 is adjusted within a predetermined range. The ECU 50 provided on the power receiving device 30 side, not on the power transmitting device 20 side, calculates the separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31, and based on the separation distance h2, the switch of the power adjustment circuit 40. The on time of 42 is calculated, and the input power W to the storage battery 17 is adjusted. Further, the ON time of the switch 42 in the power adjustment circuit 40 is adjusted so that the input power W to the storage battery 17 is constant with respect to the received power W0 that varies according to the battery voltage of the storage battery 17.
 図3は、電力調整回路40のオン時間を制御するためのフローチャートである。この処理は、ECU50によって、所定周期で実施される。 FIG. 3 is a flowchart for controlling the on time of the power adjustment circuit 40. This process is performed by the ECU 50 at a predetermined cycle.
 S11で、距離センサ16で検出した車両底部15aと地面Gとの間の検出距離h1を取得する。S11で取得した検出距離h1に基づいて、S12で、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との間の離間距離h2を算出する。具体的には、予め定められた地面Gと送電機器20との間の距離及び距離センサ16と受電機器30との取付け高さの差により、検出距離h1を修正して、離間距離h2を算出する。離間距離h2は、瞬時値ではなく、例えば数秒~数十秒の間の所定時間の検出距離h1の平均値に基づいて算出することが望ましい。このようにすることで、検出誤差や地面G上の小さい段差等の影響を排除することができる。なお、瞬時値に対してフィルタ等で瞬間的な変化を排除して離間距離h2を算出するようにしてもよい。なお、S12が「距離算出部」に相当する。 In S11, the detection distance h1 between the vehicle bottom 15a and the ground G detected by the distance sensor 16 is acquired. Based on the detection distance h1 acquired in S11, the separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 is calculated in S12. Specifically, the detection distance h1 is corrected and the separation distance h2 is calculated based on a predetermined distance between the ground G and the power transmitting device 20 and a difference in mounting height between the distance sensor 16 and the power receiving device 30. To do. The separation distance h2 is preferably calculated based on the average value of the detection distance h1 for a predetermined time, for example, several seconds to several tens of seconds, instead of an instantaneous value. By doing so, it is possible to eliminate the influence of a detection error and a small step on the ground G. Note that the separation distance h2 may be calculated by eliminating an instantaneous change in the instantaneous value with a filter or the like. Note that S12 corresponds to the "distance calculation unit".
 S13で、蓄電池17の電池電圧を取得する。蓄電池17のSOC等に基づいて算出された蓄電池17の電池電圧を取得する。なお、S13が「電圧取得部」に相当する。 In S13, the battery voltage of the storage battery 17 is acquired. The battery voltage of the storage battery 17 calculated based on the SOC of the storage battery 17 or the like is acquired. Note that S13 corresponds to the "voltage acquisition unit".
 S14で、離間距離h2及び電池電圧に基づいて、受電機器30にて受電される受電電力W0を算出する。具体的には、図4に示すような予め実験等により設定したマップに基づいて、離間距離h2及び電池電圧から受電電力W0を算出する。例えば、離間距離h2が150mmで、電池電圧が低いときの受電電力W0は、α[W]になる。 In S14, the received power W0 received by the power receiving device 30 is calculated based on the separation distance h2 and the battery voltage. Specifically, the received power W0 is calculated from the separation distance h2 and the battery voltage based on a map set in advance by experiments as shown in FIG. For example, when the separation distance h2 is 150 mm and the battery voltage is low, the received power W0 is α [W].
 なお、離間距離h2が大きくなるほど、受電電力W0は小さくなる。また、電池電圧が高いほど、受電電力W0は大きくなる。2次側共振部33がSS方式で受電し、2次側フィルタ回路34から出力された電力は、定電流となっている。一方、蓄電池17に入力される電圧は、電池電圧が大きくなるほど大きくなる。そのため、電池電圧が大きくなると、受電電力W0は大きくなる。なお、図5に示すように、受電電力W0は、蓄電池17に入力される入力電力Wの目標電力Wtよりも大きくなっている。 Note that the received power W0 decreases as the distance h2 increases. Further, the higher the battery voltage, the larger the received power W0. The secondary side resonance unit 33 receives power by the SS method, and the power output from the secondary side filter circuit 34 is a constant current. On the other hand, the voltage input to the storage battery 17 increases as the battery voltage increases. Therefore, the received power W0 increases as the battery voltage increases. Note that, as shown in FIG. 5, the received power W0 is larger than the target power Wt of the input power W input to the storage battery 17.
 S15で、スイッチ42のオン時間を算出する。蓄電池17に入力される入力電力Wが所定の範囲になるように設定された目標電力Wtと受電電力W0とに基づいて、オン時間(オンデューティ)を算出する。具体的には、オンデューティは、1-(Wt/W0)の式で算出される。算出したオンデューティに基づいて、2次側駆動回路45を制御して、スイッチ42のオン時間を制御し、処理を終了する。なお、S15が「時間設定部」に相当する。 In S15, the on time of the switch 42 is calculated. The on-time (on-duty) is calculated based on the target power Wt and the received power W0 set so that the input power W input to the storage battery 17 falls within a predetermined range. Specifically, the on-duty is calculated by the formula 1-(Wt/W0). Based on the calculated on-duty, the secondary-side drive circuit 45 is controlled to control the on-time of the switch 42, and the process ends. Note that S15 corresponds to the "time setting unit".
 図6は、離間距離h2の変化による受電電力W0及び蓄電池17への入力電力Wの変動を示す図である。破線で示す線は、走行時間による離間距離h2の変化を示す。離間距離h2及び電池電圧に基づいて、オン時間を設定することで、蓄電池17に入力される電力が所定の範囲内に調整される。車両15の走行時に、タイヤ圧の変化等によって受電機器30と送電機器20との離間距離h2が大きくなると、受電機器30が送電機器20から受電する受電電力W0が小さくなる。この場合には、スイッチ42のオン時間を減少させ、入力電力Wが受電電力W0に対して占める割合が大きくなるように制御する。一方、車速の上昇等により、車高が低くなることで、離間距離h2が小さくなった場合には、電力伝送効率がよくなり、受電電力W0が大きくなる。この場合には、入力電力Wが所定の範囲内になるように、スイッチ42のオン時間を増加させ、入力電力Wが受電電力W0に対して占める割合が小さくなるように制御する。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing changes in the received power W0 and the input power W to the storage battery 17 due to changes in the separation distance h2. The broken line shows the change in the separation distance h2 depending on the running time. By setting the on-time based on the separation distance h2 and the battery voltage, the electric power input to the storage battery 17 is adjusted within a predetermined range. When the distance h2 between the power receiving device 30 and the power transmitting device 20 increases due to a change in tire pressure while the vehicle 15 is running, the power receiving power W0 received by the power receiving device 30 from the power transmitting device 20 decreases. In this case, the ON time of the switch 42 is reduced so that the ratio of the input power W to the received power W0 is increased. On the other hand, when the separation distance h2 becomes small due to the decrease in vehicle height due to the increase in vehicle speed or the like, the power transmission efficiency improves and the received power W0 increases. In this case, the on time of the switch 42 is increased so that the input power W is within a predetermined range, and the input power W is controlled so that the ratio of the input power W to the received power W0 becomes small.
 また、電池電圧が大きい場合には、受電電力W0が大きくなる。この場合には、入力電力Wが所定の範囲内になるように、スイッチ42のオン時間を増加させ、入力電力Wが受電電力W0に対して占める割合が小さくなるように制御する。一方、電池電圧が小さい場合には、スイッチ42のオン時間を減少させ、入力電力Wが受電電力W0に対して占める割合が大きくなるように制御する。 Also, if the battery voltage is high, the received power W0 will be high. In this case, the on time of the switch 42 is increased so that the input power W is within a predetermined range, and the input power W is controlled so that the ratio of the input power W to the received power W0 becomes small. On the other hand, when the battery voltage is low, the on time of the switch 42 is reduced so that the ratio of the input power W to the received power W0 is increased.
 このようにして、離間距離h2や電池電圧に変動があっても、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが所定の範囲になるように、スイッチ42のオン時間を調整する。これにより、受電電力W0が変動しても、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが安定し、蓄電池17の劣化を抑制することができる。また、受電機器30及び蓄電池17を有する充電システムとして、余裕をみた蓄電池17の容量を準備する必要がないため、充電システムの体格や重量を小さくすることができるとともに、コストを低減できる。 In this way, the on time of the switch 42 is adjusted so that the input power W to the storage battery 17 falls within a predetermined range even if the separation distance h2 and the battery voltage change. As a result, even if the received power W0 fluctuates, the input power W to the storage battery 17 becomes stable and deterioration of the storage battery 17 can be suppressed. Further, as a charging system having the power receiving device 30 and the storage battery 17, it is not necessary to prepare a sufficient capacity of the storage battery 17, so that the physique and weight of the charging system can be reduced and the cost can be reduced.
 以上説明した本実施形態では以下の効果を奏する。 The following effects are achieved in this embodiment described above.
 受電機器30側で、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2を算出し、この離間距離h2に基づいて、電力調整回路40のスイッチ42のオン時間を算出し、蓄電池17への入力電力Wを調整する構成としている。このように、受電機器30側で、受電機器30と送電機器20との離間距離h2の変化に基づいて、蓄電池17への入力電力Wを調整することで、仮に走行中であっても、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが不安定となることを抑制できる。 On the power receiving device 30 side, the separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 is calculated, and the on time of the switch 42 of the power adjustment circuit 40 is calculated based on this separation distance h2, and the storage battery 17 The input power W is adjusted. As described above, by adjusting the input power W to the storage battery 17 based on the change in the separation distance h2 between the power reception device 30 and the power transmission device 20 on the power reception device 30 side, the storage battery is tentatively running. It is possible to prevent the input power W to 17 from becoming unstable.
 離間距離h2が大きいほど、蓄電池17側への通電時間が長くなるように、スイッチ42のオン時間を設定する。離間距離h2が大きくなり電力伝送効率が悪化すると、蓄電池17側への通電時間を長くして、蓄電池17への入力電力Wが所定の範囲となるように、電力調整回路40でのスイッチ42のオン時間が調整される。これにより、蓄電池17への入力電力Wの変動を抑制できる。 The on time of the switch 42 is set such that the energization time to the storage battery 17 side becomes longer as the separation distance h2 becomes larger. When the separation distance h2 becomes large and the power transmission efficiency deteriorates, the energization time to the storage battery 17 side is lengthened so that the input power W to the storage battery 17 falls within a predetermined range. On time is adjusted. Thereby, the fluctuation of the input power W to the storage battery 17 can be suppressed.
 車両15の車両底部15aに設けられた1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2は、車両15の走行中に変化する。例えば、車両15においては、連続走行することに伴うタイヤの温度変化によりタイヤ圧が上昇しタイヤ径が変化することが考えられる。タイヤ径の変化に伴い、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2が走行中に変化する。この点、車両底部15aと走行路面(地面G)の検出距離h1を検出し、検出距離h1に基づいて、1次コイル21と2次コイル31との離間距離h2を算出する。そして、離間距離h2に基づいて、スイッチ42のオン時間を調整することで、このような走行中の離間距離h2の変化に伴う受電電力W0の変化に対応することができる。 The separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 provided on the vehicle bottom portion 15a of the vehicle 15 changes while the vehicle 15 is traveling. For example, in the vehicle 15, it is conceivable that the tire pressure may increase and the tire diameter may change due to the temperature change of the tire due to continuous running. As the tire diameter changes, the distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 changes during traveling. In this respect, the detection distance h1 between the vehicle bottom portion 15a and the traveling road surface (ground G) is detected, and the separation distance h2 between the primary coil 21 and the secondary coil 31 is calculated based on the detection distance h1. Then, by adjusting the ON time of the switch 42 based on the separation distance h2, it is possible to cope with such a change in the received power W0 accompanying the change in the separation distance h2 during traveling.
 蓄電池17の使用状況及び充電状況によって、電池電圧は変動する。蓄電池17の電池電圧が変化すると、受電電力W0が変化する。そこで、受電電力W0が変動しても蓄電池17への入力電力Wが所定の範囲内となるように、電力調整回路40でのスイッチ42のオン時間を調整する。電池電圧及び離間距離h2に基づいてスイッチ42のオン時間を調整することで、蓄電池17への入力電力Wを所定の範囲にすることができ、変動を抑制できる。 The battery voltage varies depending on the usage status and charging status of the storage battery 17. When the battery voltage of the storage battery 17 changes, the received power W0 changes. Therefore, the on time of the switch 42 in the power adjustment circuit 40 is adjusted so that the input power W to the storage battery 17 is within a predetermined range even if the received power W0 changes. By adjusting the on time of the switch 42 based on the battery voltage and the separation distance h2, the input power W to the storage battery 17 can be set within a predetermined range, and fluctuations can be suppressed.

Control is performed so that the ratio of the received power to W0 is small.

To do. On the other hand, when the battery voltage is low, the on-time of the switch 142 is increased so that the ratio of the input power W to the received power W0 is increased.
