Description

本発明は、車輌に設けられた受電部に給電する給電装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a power feeding device that feeds power to a power receiving unit provided in a vehicle.

電気自動車等の蓄電池に蓄えた電気を動力源として走行する車輌では、車輌を駐車場に停めた際等の車輌の停車中において、給電装置を用いて蓄電池を充電する必要がある。従来の電磁誘導方式の非接触の給電装置としては、地面に設置されている給電部が、車輌に搭載されている受電部に給電するものが知られている。給電部は、例えば駐車スペース等の車輌が停止する位置の路面側に設けられている。一方、受電部は、車輌の底面の、地面に設置された給電部と対向する位置に設けられている。   In a vehicle that travels using electricity stored in a storage battery such as an electric vehicle as a power source, it is necessary to charge the storage battery using a power supply device while the vehicle is stopped such as when the vehicle is parked in a parking lot. As a conventional electromagnetic induction type non-contact power supply device, a power supply unit installed on the ground supplies power to a power reception unit mounted on a vehicle is known. The power feeding unit is provided, for example, on the road surface side where a vehicle such as a parking space stops. On the other hand, the power reception unit is provided on the bottom surface of the vehicle at a position facing the power supply unit installed on the ground.

上記の非接触充電システムでは、受電部と給電部との位置を精度良く合わせないと、充電効率の低下、または漏洩磁界若しくは不要輻射の増大を招く。従来、受電部と給電部との位置合わせの精度を向上させる方法として、以下の方法が知られている。   In the non-contact charging system described above, if the positions of the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit are not accurately matched, the charging efficiency is reduced, or the leakage magnetic field or unnecessary radiation is increased. Conventionally, the following methods are known as methods for improving the accuracy of alignment between the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit.

即ち、従来は、給電部の給電コイルの位置を動かすことにより受電部と給電部との位置合わせを行う方法が知られている(例えば、特許文献1)。   That is, conventionally, a method for aligning the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit by moving the position of the power feeding coil of the power feeding unit is known (for example, Patent Document 1).

また、充電システムにおける位置合わせではないが、コ字状の金属本体により車を定位置に案内するもの(例えば、特許文献2)、及び乗り上げた車輪の進行方向を乗入部に向けて修正するための傾斜部を設けることにより位置合わせを行うもの(例えば、特許文献3)も知られている。   Moreover, although it is not the alignment in a charging system, in order to correct the advancing direction of the thing which guides a vehicle to a fixed position with a U-shaped metal main body (for example, patent document 2) and the wheel which got up, toward an entrance There is also known one that performs alignment by providing an inclined portion (for example, Patent Document 3).

Therefore, it is necessary to move the vehicle back and forth many times to turn the wheels in the straight direction, and there is a problem that the burden on the driver accompanying the alignment increases.

本発明の目的は、受電部と給電部との位置合わせの案内を簡易な構造により行うことができるとともに、受電部と給電部との位置合わせの際の運転者の負担を軽減することができる給電装置を提供することである。   The object of the present invention is to provide guidance for positioning between the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit with a simple structure and to reduce the burden on the driver when positioning the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit. It is to provide a power feeding device.

<Configuration of charging system>
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the vehicle guidance system 10 when the vehicle 150 is moving to a position to receive power supply in the first embodiment of the present invention.

車輌誘導システム10は、給電装置100及び車輌150を有する。   The vehicle guidance system 10 includes a power feeding device 100 and a vehicle 150.

給電装置100は、給電部101が地表から露出するように地面上に設置もしくは埋設される。給電装置100は、例えば駐車スペース170に設けられ、車輌150の駐車中に受電部151に対して給電する。なお、給電装置100の構成については後述する。   The power supply apparatus 100 is installed or embedded on the ground such that the power supply unit 101 is exposed from the ground surface. The power supply device 100 is provided in, for example, a parking space 170 and supplies power to the power receiving unit 151 while the vehicle 150 is parked. Note that the configuration of the power supply apparatus 100 will be described later.

車輌150は、底面に受電部151を有する。車輌150は、給電装置100により受電部151を介して充電された、図示しない蓄電池を動力源として走行する。車輌150は、例えば電気自動車である。   The vehicle 150 has a power receiving unit 151 on the bottom surface. The vehicle 150 travels using a storage battery (not shown) that is charged by the power supply apparatus 100 via the power receiving unit 151 as a power source. The vehicle 150 is, for example, an electric vehicle.

<給電装置の構成>
給電装置100は、給電部101、筐体102及び車輌誘導部材103a、103bを有する。
<Configuration of power supply device>
The power supply apparatus 100 includes a power supply unit 101, a housing 102, and vehicle guide members 103a and 103b.

給電部101は、車輌150が駐車スペース170内の所定の位置に停車した際に、受電部151と対向して受電部151に対して給電する。   When the vehicle 150 stops at a predetermined position in the parking space 170, the power supply unit 101 supplies power to the power reception unit 151 so as to face the power reception unit 151.

筐体102は、給電部101を有する。   The housing 102 includes a power feeding unit 101.

車輌誘導部材103a、103bは、給電部101の周囲に配置されている。車輌誘導部材103a、103bは、給電の際に車輌150の左車輪152、154と右車輪153、155との間に収まる幅W1に形成されている。車輌誘導部材103a、103bは、車輌150の移動方向(図1において紙面と平行な方向)であって給電部101から離れる一方向S1に向かって徐々に幅狭となる形状を有している。車輌誘導部材103a、103bは、方向S1において、給電部101よりも突出するように設けられている。   The vehicle guide members 103 a and 103 b are arranged around the power feeding unit 101. The vehicle guide members 103a and 103b are formed to have a width W1 that fits between the left wheels 152 and 154 and the right wheels 153 and 155 of the vehicle 150 when power is supplied. The vehicle guide members 103a and 103b have a shape that gradually becomes narrower in a direction S1 that is a moving direction of the vehicle 150 (a direction parallel to the paper surface in FIG. 1) and that is away from the power feeding unit 101. The vehicle guide members 103a and 103b are provided so as to protrude from the power feeding unit 101 in the direction S1.

車輌誘導部材103a、103bは、車輌150の底面と対向する方向である高さ方向(以下、「高さ方向」と記載する)に厚みを有し、地面から突出するように設けられている。車輌誘導部材103a、103bは、筐体102よりも方向S1に突出するように設けられている。   The vehicle guide members 103a and 103b have a thickness in a height direction (hereinafter referred to as “height direction”) that is a direction facing the bottom surface of the vehicle 150, and are provided so as to protrude from the ground. The vehicle guide members 103 a and 103 b are provided so as to protrude in the direction S <b> 1 from the housing 102.

<車輌誘導部材の構成>
図2は、車輌誘導部材103bの平面図である。
<Configuration of vehicle guide member>
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the vehicle guide member 103b.

車輌誘導部材103bは、平面から見て直角三角形状を有する。車輌誘導部材103bの長辺部201は、短辺部202側において筐体102(図2において省略)と接する。車輌誘導部材103bは、長辺部201が方向S1と平行になるように設けられている。車輌誘導部材103bは、外縁部111bが方向S1に対して所定の角度を有するように設けられている。   The vehicle guide member 103b has a right triangle shape when seen from the plane. The long side portion 201 of the vehicle guiding member 103b is in contact with the casing 102 (omitted in FIG. 2) on the short side portion 202 side. The vehicle guide member 103b is provided such that the long side portion 201 is parallel to the direction S1. The vehicle guide member 103b is provided such that the outer edge portion 111b has a predetermined angle with respect to the direction S1.

なお、車輌誘導部材103aは、車輌誘導部材103bと同一構成であるので、その説明を省略する。   Note that the vehicle guide member 103a has the same configuration as the vehicle guide member 103b, and a description thereof will be omitted.

<給電を受ける位置までの車輌の誘導方法>
図1に示すように、車輌150が方向S1に対して斜めから給電部101に接近する際には、破線で示す軌跡R1を経由する。この際、車輪155の内側面155aは、外縁部111bに沿って移動する。この状態において、車輌150が軌跡R1から外れた場合には、車輪155が車輌誘導部材103bに乗り上げることにより、車輌150が振動するとともに傾く。このため、車輌150の運転者は、車輌150の振動または傾きを感じることにより、車輌150が軌跡R1から外れていることを認識することができる。従って、車輌150の運転者は、ハンドルを操作して車輌150を軌跡R1上に戻すことができる。
<Vehicle guidance method to the position to receive power supply>
As shown in FIG. 1, when the vehicle 150 approaches the power feeding unit 101 obliquely with respect to the direction S1, it passes through a locus R1 indicated by a broken line. At this time, the inner side surface 155a of the wheel 155 moves along the outer edge portion 111b. In this state, when the vehicle 150 deviates from the locus R1, the vehicle 150 vibrates and tilts as the wheel 155 rides on the vehicle guide member 103b. For this reason, the driver of the vehicle 150 can recognize that the vehicle 150 is out of the locus R <b> 1 by feeling the vibration or tilt of the vehicle 150. Accordingly, the driver of the vehicle 150 can return the vehicle 150 to the locus R1 by operating the handle.

一方、車輌150は、車輪154を車輌誘導部材103aに接触させることなく給電部101に近づくことができる。   On the other hand, the vehicle 150 can approach the power feeding unit 101 without bringing the wheel 154 into contact with the vehicle guiding member 103a.

図3は、車輌150が給電を受ける位置に停車した場合の車輌誘導システム10の平面図である。図1の状態から図3の状態まで車輌150を移動した後に、給電装置100は、給電を開始する。   FIG. 3 is a plan view of the vehicle guidance system 10 when the vehicle 150 stops at a position to receive power supply. After moving the vehicle 150 from the state of FIG. 1 to the state of FIG. 3, the power feeding device 100 starts power feeding.

<本実施の形態の効果>
本実施の形態によれば、車輌の移動方向であって給電部から離れる一方向に向かって徐々に幅狭となる形状を有する車輌誘導部材を設けることにより、受電部と給電部との位置合わせの案内を簡易な構造により行うことができるとともに、受電部と給電部との位置合わせの際の運転者の負担を軽減することができる。
<Effects of the present embodiment>
According to the present embodiment, by providing the vehicle guide member having a shape gradually narrowing in one direction away from the power feeding unit in the moving direction of the vehicle, the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit are aligned. Can be performed with a simple structure, and the burden on the driver when the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit are aligned can be reduced.

また、本実施の形態によれば、高さ方向に厚みを有するように車輌誘導部材を形成することにより、給電装置に接近する車輌が予定のルートを外れた際に車輪が車輌誘導部材に乗り上げ、車輌に対して振動または傾きを与えることができる。これにより、予定のルートを外れたことを運転者に知らせることができる。   In addition, according to the present embodiment, the vehicle guide member is formed so as to have a thickness in the height direction, so that when the vehicle approaching the power feeding device deviates from the planned route, the wheel rides on the vehicle guide member. The vehicle can be vibrated or tilted. As a result, the driver can be notified that the planned route has been missed.

また、本実施の形態によれば、車輌誘導部材は筐体よりも車輌の移動方向であって給電部から離れる一方向に突出するように設けられるので、車輌が給電を受ける位置に接近する際において予定のルートを大きく外れた場合には、車輌は筐体よりも先に車輌誘導部材の上に乗り上げる。これにより、車輌が筐体を踏むことにより筐体が破損することを防ぐことができる。   In addition, according to the present embodiment, the vehicle guide member is provided so as to protrude in one direction away from the power feeding unit in the moving direction of the vehicle from the housing, so that when the vehicle approaches the position to receive power feeding If the planned route is greatly deviated in, the vehicle rides on the vehicle guiding member before the casing. Thereby, it can prevent that a housing | casing is damaged by a vehicle stepping on a housing | casing.

<本実施の形態の変形例>
本実施の形態において、筐体と車輌誘導部材とを別々に形成したが、本発明はこれに限らず、筐体と車輌誘導部材とを一体に形成してもよい。即ち、車輌誘導部材が筐体の一部であってもよい。
<Modification of the present embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the housing and the vehicle guide member are formed separately, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the housing and the vehicle guide member may be formed integrally. That is, the vehicle guide member may be a part of the housing.

(実施の形態2)
本実施の形態において、充電システムの構成は、車輌誘導部材以外は図1と同一構成であるので、その説明を省略する。また、給電を受ける位置までの車輌の誘導方法は、上記の実施の形態1と同様であるので、その説明を省略する。
(Embodiment 2)
In the present embodiment, the configuration of the charging system is the same as that shown in FIG. 1 except for the vehicle guiding member, and thus the description thereof is omitted. Further, since the method for guiding the vehicle to the position to receive power supply is the same as that in the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

FIG. 7 is a plan view of a vehicle guide member 701 in a modification of the present embodiment. In the modification of the present embodiment, the configuration other than the vehicle guiding member 701 is the same as that of the present embodiment.

(Embodiment 4)
<Configuration of charging system>
FIG. 8 is a plan view of vehicle guidance system 50 when vehicle 150 is moving to a position to receive power supply in the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

図8に示す車輌誘導システム50は、図1に示す実施の形態1に係る車輌誘導システム10に対して、給電装置100の代わりに給電装置800を有する。なお、図8において、図1と同一構成である部分には同一の符号を付してその説明を省略する。   A vehicle guidance system 50 illustrated in FIG. 8 includes a power feeding device 800 instead of the power feeding device 100 with respect to the vehicle guidance system 10 according to the first embodiment illustrated in FIG. In FIG. 8, parts having the same configuration as in FIG.

車輌誘導システム50は、給電装置800及び車輌150を有する。   The vehicle guidance system 50 includes a power feeding device 800 and a vehicle 150.

給電装置800は、給電部101が地表から露出するように地面上に設置もしくは埋設される。給電装置800は、例えば駐車スペース170に設けられ、車輌150の駐車中に受電部151に対して給電する。なお、給電装置800の構成は後述する。   The power supply device 800 is installed or embedded on the ground such that the power supply unit 101 is exposed from the ground surface. The power supply device 800 is provided in, for example, the parking space 170 and supplies power to the power receiving unit 151 while the vehicle 150 is parked. The configuration of the power supply apparatus 800 will be described later.

車輌150は、給電装置800により受電部151を介して充電された、図示しない蓄電池を動力源として走行する。   The vehicle 150 travels using a storage battery (not shown) charged by the power supply device 800 via the power receiving unit 151 as a power source.

<給電装置の構成>
給電装置800は、給電部101、筐体102及び車輌誘導部材801a、801bを有する。
<Configuration of power supply device>
The power supply apparatus 800 includes a power supply unit 101, a housing 102, and vehicle guide members 801a and 801b.

車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、給電部101の周囲に配置されている。車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、給電の際に車輌150の左車輪152、154と右車輪153、155との間に収まる幅W1に形成されている。車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、車輌150の移動方向であって給電部101から離れる一方向S2に向かって徐々に幅狭となる形状を有している。車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、方向S1において、給電部101よりも突出するように設けられている。方向S1は、例えば、車輌150が後退により給電を受ける位置まで直進する際の直進方向である。   The vehicle guiding members 801 a and 801 b are disposed around the power feeding unit 101. The vehicle guide members 801a and 801b are formed to have a width W1 that fits between the left wheels 152 and 154 and the right wheels 153 and 155 of the vehicle 150 when power is supplied. The vehicle guide members 801 a and 801 b have a shape that gradually becomes narrower in one direction S <b> 2 that is the moving direction of the vehicle 150 and that is away from the power supply unit 101. The vehicle guide members 801a and 801b are provided so as to protrude from the power feeding unit 101 in the direction S1. The direction S1 is, for example, a straight traveling direction when the vehicle 150 travels straight to a position where power is received by reversing.

車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、車輌150の移動方向であって給電部101から離れる一方向S2に向かって徐々に幅狭となる形状を有している。車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、方向S2において、給電部101よりも突出するように設けられている。方向S2は、方向S1と反対方向である。方向S2は、例えば、車輌150が前進により給電を受ける位置まで直進する際の直進方向である。   The vehicle guide members 801 a and 801 b have a shape that gradually becomes narrower in one direction S <b> 2 that is the moving direction of the vehicle 150 and that is away from the power supply unit 101. The vehicle guide members 801a and 801b are provided so as to protrude from the power feeding unit 101 in the direction S2. The direction S2 is opposite to the direction S1. The direction S2 is, for example, a straight traveling direction when the vehicle 150 travels straight to a position where power is received by advancing.

給電を受ける位置まで車輌150が前進する際に外縁部812a、812bによりガイドし、給電を受ける位置まで車輌150が後退する際に外縁部811a、811bによりガイドすることを想定している場合、車輌150が進入する角度は、方向S2に対する角度の方が方向S1に対する角度よりも小さくなる。従って、この場合には、方向S2に対する外縁部812a、812bの傾斜角度は、方向S1に対する外縁部811a、811bの傾斜角度よりも小さくなるように形成することができる。   When it is assumed that the vehicle 150 is guided by the outer edge portions 812a and 812b when the vehicle 150 moves forward to the position to receive power supply, and is guided by the outer edge portions 811a and 811b when the vehicle 150 moves backward to the position to receive power supply. As for the angle at which 150 enters, the angle with respect to the direction S2 is smaller than the angle with respect to the direction S1. Accordingly, in this case, the inclination angle of the outer edge portions 812a and 812b with respect to the direction S2 can be formed to be smaller than the inclination angle of the outer edge portions 811a and 811b with respect to the direction S1.

車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、高さ方向に厚みを有し、地面から突出するように設けられている。車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、筐体102よりも方向S1に突出するように設けられている。車輌誘導部材801a、801bは、筐体102よりも方向S2に突出するように設けられている。   The vehicle guide members 801a and 801b have a thickness in the height direction and are provided so as to protrude from the ground. The vehicle guide members 801a and 801b are provided so as to protrude in the direction S1 from the housing 102. The vehicle guide members 801a and 801b are provided so as to protrude in the direction S2 from the housing 102.

<給電を受ける位置までの車輌の誘導方法>
図8に示すように、車輌150が方向S2に対して斜めから給電部101に接近する際には、破線で示す軌跡R2を経由する。この際、車輪152の内側面152aは、外縁部812aに沿って移動する。この状態において、車輌150が軌跡R2から外れた場合には、車輪152が車輌誘導部材801aに乗り上げることにより、車輌150が振動するとともに傾く。このため、車輌150の運転者は、車輌150の振動または傾きを感じることにより、車輌150が軌跡R2から外れていることを認識することができる。従って、車輌150の運転者は、ハンドルを操作して車輌150を軌跡R2上に戻すことができる。
<Vehicle guidance method to the position to receive power supply>
As shown in FIG. 8, when the vehicle 150 approaches the power feeding unit 101 obliquely with respect to the direction S2, the vehicle 150 passes through a locus R2 indicated by a broken line. At this time, the inner side surface 152a of the wheel 152 moves along the outer edge portion 812a. In this state, when the vehicle 150 deviates from the trajectory R2, the vehicle 150 vibrates and tilts as the wheel 152 rides on the vehicle guide member 801a. For this reason, the driver of the vehicle 150 can recognize that the vehicle 150 has deviated from the locus R2 by feeling the vibration or tilt of the vehicle 150. Therefore, the driver of the vehicle 150 can return the vehicle 150 to the locus R2 by operating the handle.

一方、車輌150は、車輪153を車輌誘導部材801bに接触させることなく給電部101に近づくことができる。   On the other hand, the vehicle 150 can approach the power feeding unit 101 without bringing the wheel 153 into contact with the vehicle guiding member 801b.

なお、車輌150が給電を受ける位置に停車した状態は図3と同様であるので、その説明を省略する。また、車輌150が方向S1に対して斜めから給電部101に接近する際の車輌の誘導方法は、上記の実施の形態1と同様であるので、その説明を省略する。   Since the state where the vehicle 150 is stopped at a position to receive power supply is the same as that in FIG. 3, the description thereof is omitted. In addition, since the vehicle guidance method when the vehicle 150 approaches the power supply unit 101 obliquely with respect to the direction S1 is the same as that in the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

<本実施の形態の効果>
本実施の形態によれば、車輌の移動方向であって給電部から離れる互いに反対方向である二方向に向かって徐々に幅狭となる形状を有する車輌誘導部材を設けることにより、前進または後退の車輌の駐車方法に寄らずに、上記の実施の形態1と同様の効果を得ることができる。
<Effects of the present embodiment>
According to the present embodiment, by providing the vehicle guide member having a shape gradually narrowing in two directions that are opposite to each other in the moving direction of the vehicle and away from the power feeding unit, the vehicle can be moved forward or backward. The same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained without depending on the vehicle parking method.

<本実施の形態の変形例>
本実施の形態において、筐体と車輌誘導部材とを別々に形成したが、本発明はこれに限らず、筐体と車輌誘導部材とを一体に形成してもよい。即ち、車輌誘導部材が筐体の一部であってもよい。
<Modification of the present embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the housing and the vehicle guide member are formed separately, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the housing and the vehicle guide member may be formed integrally. That is, the vehicle guide member may be a part of the housing.

また、本実施の形態において、車輌誘導部材は車輌が前進と後退の双方により給電を受ける位置まで移動する際の案内を行うが、本発明はこれに限らず、車輌誘導部材は車輌が前進により給電を受ける位置まで移動する際の案内を行うような形状にしてもよい。   In the present embodiment, the vehicle guide member provides guidance when the vehicle moves to a position where power is received by both forward and backward movements. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the vehicle guide member is provided when the vehicle moves forward. You may make it the shape which performs guidance at the time of moving to the position which receives electric power feeding.

また、本実施の形態において、車輌誘導部材は平面から見て2等辺三角形状を有するように形成したが、本発明はこれに限らず、図5に示すように給電部101を中心とする円弧状に外縁部を形成してもよい。   Further, in the present embodiment, the vehicle guide member is formed to have an isosceles triangle shape when viewed from above, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a circle centering on the power feeding portion 101 as shown in FIG. The outer edge may be formed in an arc shape.

また、本実施の形態において、図7に示すように車輌誘導部材の上面を外縁部に沿って段差を有するように形成してもよいし、図6に示すように外縁部から給電部に向けて、高さ方向に徐々に厚みが増すように形成してもよい。   Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the upper surface of the vehicle guide member may be formed to have a step along the outer edge portion, or from the outer edge portion toward the power feeding portion as shown in FIG. The thickness may be gradually increased in the height direction.

<給電装置の構成>
給電装置900は、給電部101、筐体102及び車輌誘導部材901を有する。
<Configuration of power supply device>
The power supply apparatus 900 includes a power supply unit 101, a housing 102, and a vehicle guide member 901.

車輌誘導部材901は、給電部101の周囲に配置されている。車輌誘導部材901は、給電を受ける車輌150の左車輪152、154と右車輪153、155とが収まる幅で給電部101を挟んで互いに対向する一対のガイド部902a、902bを有する。一対のガイド部902a、902bは、車輌150の移動方向であって給電部101から離れる一方向S3に向かって互いに徐々に離れるように設けられている。ガイド部902a、902bは、方向S3において、給電部101よりも突出するように設けられている。   The vehicle guiding member 901 is disposed around the power feeding unit 101. The vehicle guide member 901 has a pair of guide portions 902a and 902b that face each other with the power supply portion 101 interposed therebetween so that the left wheels 152 and 154 and the right wheels 153 and 155 of the vehicle 150 that receives power supply can be accommodated. The pair of guide portions 902a and 902b are provided so as to gradually move away from each other in a direction S3 that is the moving direction of the vehicle 150 and is away from the power feeding portion 101. The guide portions 902a and 902b are provided so as to protrude from the power feeding portion 101 in the direction S3.

<Vehicle guidance method to the position to receive power supply>
As shown in FIG. 9, when the vehicle 150 approaches the power feeding unit 101 obliquely with respect to the direction S3, the outer side surface 154b of the wheel 154 moves along the guide unit 902a. In this state, when the vehicle 150 deviates from the planned route, the vehicle 150 vibrates and tilts as the wheel 154 rides on the vehicle guide member 901. Therefore, the driver of the vehicle 150 can recognize that the vehicle 150 is off the planned route by feeling the vibration or tilt of the vehicle 150. Therefore, the driver of the vehicle 150 can return the vehicle 150 to the planned route by operating the handle.

一方、車輌150は、車輪155を車輌誘導部材901に接触させることなく給電部101に近づくことができる。   On the other hand, the vehicle 150 can approach the power feeding unit 101 without bringing the wheel 155 into contact with the vehicle guiding member 901.

It is possible to reduce the burden on the driver when aligning the power receiving unit and the power feeding unit.

また、本実施の形態によれば、高さ方向に厚みを有するように車輌誘導部材を形成することにより、給電装置に接近する車輌が予定のルートを外れた際に車輪が車輌誘導部材に乗り上げ、車輌に対して振動または傾きを与えることができる。これにより、予定のルートを外れたことを運転者に知らせることができる。   In addition, according to the present embodiment, the vehicle guide member is formed so as to have a thickness in the height direction, so that when the vehicle approaching the power feeding device deviates from the planned route, the wheel rides on the vehicle guide member. The vehicle can be vibrated or tilted. As a result, the driver can be notified that the planned route has been missed.

また、本実施の形態によれば、車輌誘導部材は筐体よりも車輌の移動方向であって給電部から離れる一方向に突出するように設けられるので、車輌が給電を受ける位置に接近する際において予定のルートを大きく外れた場合には、車輌は筐体よりも先に車輌誘導部材の上に乗り上げる。これにより、車輌が筐体を踏むことにより筐体が破損することを防ぐことができる。   In addition, according to the present embodiment, the vehicle guide member is provided so as to protrude in one direction away from the power feeding unit in the moving direction of the vehicle from the housing, so that when the vehicle approaches the position to receive power feeding If the planned route is greatly deviated in, the vehicle rides on the vehicle guiding member before the casing. Thereby, it can prevent that a housing | casing is damaged by a vehicle stepping on a housing | casing.

本発明にかかる給電装置は、車輌に設けられた受電部に対して給電するのに好適である。   The power supply device according to the present invention is suitable for supplying power to a power receiving unit provided in a vehicle.
