Abstract

La présente invention a trait à un dispositif d'alimentation électrique sans contact qui fournit de l'énergie électrique, sans contact, entre une bobine de transmission de puissance et une bobine de réception de puissance grâce au moins à un couplage magnétique, lequel dispositif est pourvu d'une pluralité d'éléments de commutation (15a-15d) et de ce qui suit : un onduleur (15) qui convertit l'énergie électrique provenant d'un bloc d'alimentation et qui fournit celle-ci à la bobine de transmission, un moyen de détection de courant de sortie d'onduleur qui détecte le courant de sortie de l'onduleur (15) ; et un moyen de commande d'onduleur qui définit une largeur d'impulsion de valeur cible pour une tension de sortie de l'onduleur (15) en fonction d'un courant de sortie et qui commande l'onduleur (15). Le moyen de commande d'onduleur définit une largeur d'impulsion qui permet au rapport des courants efficaces, qui indique le rapport en ce qui concerne le courant de sortie du courant de la composante d'onde fondamentale inclus dans le courant de sortie, d'être supérieur à un rapport des courants efficaces prescrit.
