Description

非接触給電装置Non-contact power feeding device
 本発明は、非接触給電装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a non-contact power feeding device.
 車両に設けられた受電コイルと、地上に設けられた送電コイルとにより非接触にて電気自動車などに搭載されたバッテリを充電する非接触給電装置が提案されている。非接触給電装置では、送電コイルと受電コイルとの相対位置を合わせることにより効率の良い充電を行うことができる。このため、車両後方を撮像するカメラを有し、このカメラにより撮像された画像に基づいて駐車時に送電コイルと受電コイルとの位置合わせを支援する駐車支援装置が提案されている(特許文献1参照)。 There has been proposed a non-contact power feeding device that charges a battery mounted on an electric vehicle or the like in a non-contact manner by a power receiving coil provided in the vehicle and a power transmitting coil provided on the ground. In the non-contact power supply device, efficient charging can be performed by matching the relative positions of the power transmission coil and the power reception coil. For this reason, there has been proposed a parking assist device that has a camera that captures the rear of the vehicle and assists the alignment of the power transmission coil and the power reception coil during parking based on an image captured by the camera (see Patent Document 1). ).

 しかし、駐車時においては、例えば車両の後方に送電コイルが存在するとは限らず、車両の角度によってはカメラに送電コイル(詳細には送電コイルを収納する筐体)が映らず駐車目標を確認することが困難となってしまう場合がある。また、車両には、車両周囲を撮像し、撮像画像を鳥瞰画像に変換したものを車内ディスプレイ上に表示するAVM(アラウンドビューモニタ)を備えるものが存在するが、AVMの表示範囲は車両周囲の近傍に限られる。このため、例えば車両後方のやや遠目となる位置に送電コイルがある場合に、運転者はAVMを参照しながら送電コイルまで車両を移動させることができず、駐車目標を確認することが困難となってしまう。 However, at the time of parking, for example, the power transmission coil does not always exist behind the vehicle, and depending on the angle of the vehicle, the power transmission coil (specifically, the casing that houses the power transmission coil) does not appear on the camera and the parking target is confirmed. May be difficult. Some vehicles include an AVM (around view monitor) that captures an image of the surroundings of the vehicle and displays the image obtained by converting the captured image into a bird's-eye view image on the in-vehicle display. Limited to neighborhood. For this reason, for example, when there is a power transmission coil at a slightly distant position behind the vehicle, the driver cannot move the vehicle to the power transmission coil while referring to the AVM, and it is difficult to check the parking target. End up.
 本発明は、このような課題を解決するために成されたものであり、その目的は、駐車目標の確認を容易化することが可能な非接触給電装置を提供することにある。 This invention was made in order to solve such a subject, and the objective is to provide the non-contact electric power feeder which can make confirmation of a parking target easy.
 本発明の一態様に係わる非接触給電装置は、送電コイルを収納する送電コイルユニットよりも、車両を駐車する時に車両が進入してくる側において、給電コイルユニットと対応して設けられた1又は2以上のマーカを備えている。 The non-contact power feeding device according to one aspect of the present invention is provided with 1 or 2 provided corresponding to the power feeding coil unit on the side where the vehicle enters when the vehicle is parked, rather than the power feeding coil unit that houses the power feeding coil. Two or more markers are provided.

 以下、本発明の実施形態を図面を参照して説明する。先ず、図1を参照して、実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置を含む非接触充電システムの構成を説明する。図1に示すように、実施形態に係わる非接触充電システム1は、車両200に搭載される車両側ユニットと、地上側ユニットである非接触給電装置100とを備える。非接触充電システム1は、非接触給電装置100から車両側ユニットへ非接触で電力を供給し、車両200に設けられているバッテリ28を充電するシステムである。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. First, with reference to FIG. 1, the structure of the non-contact charge system containing the non-contact electric power feeder concerning embodiment is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 1, the non-contact charging system 1 according to the embodiment includes a vehicle-side unit mounted on a vehicle 200 and a non-contact power supply apparatus 100 that is a ground-side unit. The contactless charging system 1 is a system that supplies power from the contactless power supply device 100 to the vehicle-side unit in a contactless manner and charges a battery 28 provided in the vehicle 200.
 非接触給電装置100は、給電スタンド或いは駐車場などに設置される。非接触給電装置100は、車両200を所定の駐車位置に駐車した状態において、送電コイル12から後述の受電コイル22へ非接触給電により電力を供給する。非接触給電装置100は、電力制御部11と、送電コイル12と、無線通信部14と、制御部15とを備えている。 The non-contact power supply apparatus 100 is installed in a power supply stand or a parking lot. The non-contact power supply apparatus 100 supplies power from the power transmission coil 12 to the power receiving coil 22 described later by non-contact power supply in a state where the vehicle 200 is parked at a predetermined parking position. The non-contact power supply apparatus 100 includes a power control unit 11, a power transmission coil 12, a wireless communication unit 14, and a control unit 15.
 電力制御部11は、交流電源300から送電される交流電力を高周波の交流電力に変換し、送電コイル12に送電するための回路である。電力制御部11は、整流部111と、PFC(Power Factor Correction)回路112と、インバータ113と、センサ114とを備えている。 The power control unit 11 is a circuit for converting AC power transmitted from the AC power source 300 into high-frequency AC power and transmitting the AC power to the power transmission coil 12. The power control unit 11 includes a rectification unit 111, a PFC (Power Factor Correction) circuit 112, an inverter 113, and a sensor 114.
 整流部111は、交流電源300に電気的に接続され、交流電源300からの出力交流電力を整流する回路である。PFC回路112は、整流部111からの出力波形を整流することで力率を改善するための回路であり、整流部111とインバータ113との間に接続されている。インバータ113は、平滑コンデンサやIGBTなどのスイッチング素子を有したPWM制御回路などを含む電力変換回路である。インバータ113は、制御部15によるスイッチング制御信号に基づいて、直流電力を高周波の交流電力に変換し、送電コイル12に供給する。センサ114は、PFC回路112とインバータ113との間に接続され、PFC回路112とインバータ113との間に流れる電流や電圧を検出する。 The rectifying unit 111 is a circuit that is electrically connected to the AC power supply 300 and rectifies the output AC power from the AC power supply 300. The PFC circuit 112 is a circuit for improving the power factor by rectifying the output waveform from the rectifying unit 111, and is connected between the rectifying unit 111 and the inverter 113. The inverter 113 is a power conversion circuit including a PWM control circuit having a smoothing capacitor and a switching element such as an IGBT.

 無線通信部14は、車両200に搭載された無線通信部24と双方向に通信を行うものである。無線通信部14と無線通信部24との間の通信周波数は、インテリジェントキー(登録商標)などの車両周辺機器への干渉を考慮して、車両周辺機器で使用される周波数よりも高い周波数が設定されている。無線通信部14及び無線通信部24との間の通信には、例えば各種の無線LAN方式などの遠距離に適した通信方式が用いられている。 The wireless communication unit 14 performs bidirectional communication with the wireless communication unit 24 mounted on the vehicle 200. The communication frequency between the wireless communication unit 14 and the wireless communication unit 24 is set to a frequency higher than the frequency used in the vehicle peripheral device in consideration of interference with the vehicle peripheral device such as an intelligent key (registered trademark). Has been. For communication between the wireless communication unit 14 and the wireless communication unit 24, for example, a communication method suitable for a long distance such as various wireless LAN methods is used.
 制御部15は、非接触給電装置100全体を制御する。具体的に、制御部15は、電力制御部11、及び無線通信部14を制御する。制御部15は、無線通信部14と無線通信部24との間の通信により、非接触給電装置100からの電力供給を開始する旨の制御信号を車両200側に送信したり、車両200側から非接触給電装置100から受電したい旨のリクエスト信号を受信したりする。制御部15は、センサ114の検出電流に基づいて、インバータ113のスイッチング制御を行い、送電コイル12から送電される電力を制御する。 The control part 15 controls the non-contact electric power feeder 100 whole. Specifically, the control unit 15 controls the power control unit 11 and the wireless communication unit 14. The control unit 15 transmits a control signal for starting power supply from the non-contact power supply device 100 to the vehicle 200 side by communication between the wireless communication unit 14 and the wireless communication unit 24, or from the vehicle 200 side. A request signal for receiving power from the non-contact power supply apparatus 100 is received. The control unit 15 performs switching control of the inverter 113 based on the detection current of the sensor 114 and controls electric power transmitted from the power transmission coil 12.
 車両200は、車両側ユニットとして、受電コイル22と、無線通信部24と、制御部25と、整流部26と、リレー部27と、バッテリ28と、インバータ29と、モータ30とを備えている。受電コイル22は、非接触給電装置100の送電コイル12から非接触にて受電するコイルである。受電コイル22は、車両200の底面部、特に後方の車輪の間に設けられている。受電コイル22は、送電コイル12と同様に、駐車スペース内の路面と平行な方向に円形形状に巻かれている。受電コイル22は、車両200を駐車スペース内の適切な駐車位置に駐車した時に、送電コイル12と距離を保った状態で送電コイル12の直上に位置するように、設けられている。 The vehicle 200 includes a power receiving coil 22, a wireless communication unit 24, a control unit 25, a rectifying unit 26, a relay unit 27, a battery 28, an inverter 29, and a motor 30 as a vehicle side unit. . The power receiving coil 22 is a coil that receives power in a non-contact manner from the power transmission coil 12 of the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100. The power receiving coil 22 is provided between the bottom surface of the vehicle 200, particularly between the rear wheels. Similarly to the power transmission coil 12, the power reception coil 22 is wound in a circular shape in a direction parallel to the road surface in the parking space. The power receiving coil 22 is provided so as to be positioned immediately above the power transmission coil 12 while maintaining a distance from the power transmission coil 12 when the vehicle 200 is parked at an appropriate parking position in the parking space.
 無線通信部24は、非接触給電装置100側に設けられた無線通信部14と双方向に通信を行う。整流部26は、受電コイル22に接続され、受電コイル22で受電された交流電力を直流に整流する整流回路により構成されている。リレー部27は、制御部25の制御によりオン及びオフが切り替わるリレースイッチを備え、当該リレースイッチをオフすることにより、バッテリ28を含む強電系と、充電の回路部となる受電コイル22及び整流部26とを切り離す機能を有している。 The wireless communication unit 24 performs bidirectional communication with the wireless communication unit 14 provided on the non-contact power supply apparatus 100 side. The rectifying unit 26 is connected to the power receiving coil 22 and is configured by a rectifying circuit that rectifies AC power received by the power receiving coil 22 into direct current. The relay unit 27 includes a relay switch that is switched on and off under the control of the control unit 25. By turning off the relay switch, the high-power system including the battery 28, the power receiving coil 22 that serves as a charging circuit unit, and the rectification unit 26.
 バッテリ28は、車両200の電力源となるものであり、複数の二次電池を接続することで構成されている。インバータ29は、IGBT等のスイッチング素子を有したPWM制御回路等の制御回路であって、スイッチング制御信号に基づいて、バッテリ28から出力される直流電力を交流電力に変換し、モータ30に供給する。モータ30は、例えば三相の交流電動機により構成され、車両200を駆動させるための駆動源である。 The battery 28 serves as a power source for the vehicle 200, and is configured by connecting a plurality of secondary batteries. The inverter 29 is a control circuit such as a PWM control circuit having a switching element such as an IGBT, converts DC power output from the battery 28 into AC power based on the switching control signal, and supplies the AC power to the motor 30. . The motor 30 is composed of, for example, a three-phase AC motor, and is a drive source for driving the vehicle 200.
 制御部25は、バッテリ28の充電、及び無線通信部24を制御する。制御部25は、無線通信部24及び無線通信部14を介して、充電を開始する旨の信号を非接触給電装置100の制御部15に送信する。また、制御部25は、図示しない、車両200全体を制御するコントローラとCAN通信網で接続されている。当該コントローラは、インバータ29のスイッチング制御や、バッテリ22の充電状態(SOC)を管理する。さらに、制御部25は、バッテリ22のSOCに基づいて満充電に達したか否かを判断し、満充電に達した場合、充電を終了する旨の信号を、非接触給電装置100の制御部15に送信する。 The control unit 25 controls the charging of the battery 28 and the wireless communication unit 24. The control unit 25 transmits a signal for starting charging to the control unit 15 of the non-contact power supply apparatus 100 via the wireless communication unit 24 and the wireless communication unit 14. Moreover, the control part 25 is connected with the controller which controls the vehicle 200 whole which is not shown in figure by a CAN communication network. The controller manages the switching control of the inverter 29 and the state of charge (SOC) of the battery 22. Further, the control unit 25 determines whether or not the full charge has been reached based on the SOC of the battery 22, and when the full charge has been reached, the control unit 25 outputs a signal indicating that the charge is to be terminated. 15 to send.
 非接触充電システム1では、送電コイル12と受電コイル22との間で、電磁誘導作用により非接触状態で高周波電力の送電及び受電を行う。言い換えると、送電コイル12に電圧が加わると、送電コイル12と受電コイル22との間には磁気的な結合が生じ、送電コイル12から受電コイル22へ電力が供給される。 In the non-contact charging system 1, high-frequency power is transmitted and received between the power transmission coil 12 and the power receiving coil 22 in a non-contact state by electromagnetic induction. In other words, when a voltage is applied to the power transmission coil 12, magnetic coupling occurs between the power transmission coil 12 and the power reception coil 22, and power is supplied from the power transmission coil 12 to the power reception coil 22.
 さらに、本実施形態において車両200には、カメラ31と、表示部32とが搭載されている。カメラ31は、車両200の後方を撮像する。制御部25は、カメラ31により撮像された画像を処理し、その画像情報を表示部32に送信する。表示部32は、運転者が視認可能な位置に設けられたディスプレイであって、制御部25からの画像情報に基づいて、車両後方の画像を運転者に提供する。 Furthermore, in this embodiment, the camera 200 and the display unit 32 are mounted on the vehicle 200. The camera 31 images the rear of the vehicle 200. The control unit 25 processes the image captured by the camera 31 and transmits the image information to the display unit 32. The display unit 32 is a display provided at a position where the driver can visually recognize, and provides the driver with an image behind the vehicle based on image information from the control unit 25.
 加えて、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100は、以下の構成を備えている。図2は、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100の配置状態を示す。図2に示すように、非接触給電装置100は、給電装置本体101と、送電コイルユニット102とから構成されている。給電装置本体101は、図1に示した電力制御部11、無線通信部14及び制御部15等を収納する。送電コイルユニット102は、少なくとも図1に示した送電コイル12を収納する筐体である。このような構成であるため、バッテリ28を充電する際に運転者は送電コイルユニット102上に受電コイル22が位置するように、車両200を駐車スペース内に駐車させる必要がある。 In addition, the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment has the following configuration. FIG. 2 shows an arrangement state of the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the non-contact power feeding device 100 includes a power feeding device main body 101 and a power transmission coil unit 102. The power supply apparatus main body 101 houses the power control unit 11, the wireless communication unit 14, the control unit 15, and the like illustrated in FIG. The power transmission coil unit 102 is a housing that houses at least the power transmission coil 12 illustrated in FIG. 1. Because of this configuration, when charging the battery 28, the driver needs to park the vehicle 200 in the parking space so that the power receiving coil 22 is positioned on the power transmitting coil unit 102.
 次に、本実施形態に係わる非接触充電システム1による給電方法の一例を説明する。まず、車両200の制御部25は、車両200が非接触給電装置100に接近したか否かを、例えばGPS情報及び地図情報等に基づいて判断する。 Next, an example of a power feeding method by the non-contact charging system 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. First, the control unit 25 of the vehicle 200 determines whether the vehicle 200 has approached the non-contact power supply apparatus 100 based on, for example, GPS information and map information.
 車両200が非接触給電装置100に接近した場合、車両200の制御部25は、無線通信部24を起動させて、非接触給電装置100の無線通信部14と通信可能な状態にする。無線通信部14と無線通信部24との間で通信可能な状態になると、車両200の制御部25は、リンクを確率するための信号を、無線通信部24から無線通信部14に送信する。そして、非接触給電装置100の制御部15は、当該信号を受信した旨の信号を、無線通信部14から無線通信部24に送り返す。これにより、無線通信部14と無線通信部24との間でリンクが確立する。 When the vehicle 200 approaches the non-contact power supply device 100, the control unit 25 of the vehicle 200 activates the wireless communication unit 24 so that it can communicate with the wireless communication unit 14 of the non-contact power supply device 100. When communication between the wireless communication unit 14 and the wireless communication unit 24 is possible, the control unit 25 of the vehicle 200 transmits a signal for establishing a link from the wireless communication unit 24 to the wireless communication unit 14. And the control part 15 of the non-contact electric power feeder 100 sends back the signal to the effect that the said signal was received from the wireless communication part 14 to the wireless communication part 24. Thereby, a link is established between the wireless communication unit 14 and the wireless communication unit 24.
 また、車両200の制御部25は、無線通信部14と無線通信部24との間の通信で、車両200のIDを非接触給電装置100の制御部15に送信する。非接触給電装置100の制御部15は、車両200側から送信されたIDが、予め登録されているIDと合致するか否かを判定することで、ID認証を行う。なお、本実施形態に係わる非接触充電システム1は、予め給電可能な車両200のIDが非接触給電装置100に登録されている。このため、上記のID認証により、登録IDと合致した車両200のみが給電することができる。しかし、非接触充電システム1は、これに限らず、ID認証なしであってもよい。 Further, the control unit 25 of the vehicle 200 transmits the ID of the vehicle 200 to the control unit 15 of the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 through communication between the wireless communication unit 14 and the wireless communication unit 24. The control unit 15 of the contactless power supply device 100 performs ID authentication by determining whether or not the ID transmitted from the vehicle 200 side matches the ID registered in advance. In the contactless charging system 1 according to the present embodiment, the ID of the vehicle 200 that can be supplied with power is registered in the contactless power supply apparatus 100 in advance. For this reason, only the vehicle 200 that matches the registered ID can be powered by the above ID authentication. However, the non-contact charging system 1 is not limited to this, and may be without ID authentication.
 また、無線通信の確立及びID認証の間において、カメラ31からの画像が表示部32に提供される。このため、運転者は、画像を参照しつつ駐車を行うことができる。そして、車両200が適切に駐車され、送電コイルユニット102の直上に受電コイル22が位置すると、制御部15は、インバータ113を制御して高周波電力を送電コイル12に供給する。これにより、受電コイル22を介して充電が行われる。また、充電中において車両200の制御部25は、バッテリ28が満充電に達したか否かを判断する。満充電に達したと判断した場合、車両200の制御部25は満充電に達した旨の信号を非接触給電装置100に送信し、制御部15は当該信号に基づいて給電を終了させる。一方、満充電に達していないと判断した場合には、給電が継続されることとなる。 In addition, an image from the camera 31 is provided to the display unit 32 during establishment of wireless communication and ID authentication. For this reason, the driver can park while referring to the image. When the vehicle 200 is properly parked and the power receiving coil 22 is positioned immediately above the power transmission coil unit 102, the control unit 15 controls the inverter 113 to supply high frequency power to the power transmission coil 12. Thereby, charging is performed via the power receiving coil 22. Further, during charging, control unit 25 of vehicle 200 determines whether battery 28 has reached full charge. When it is determined that full charge has been reached, the control unit 25 of the vehicle 200 transmits a signal indicating that full charge has been reached to the non-contact power supply apparatus 100, and the control unit 15 ends power supply based on the signal. On the other hand, when it is determined that the battery is not fully charged, power supply is continued.
 しかし、例えば、図2に示すように、車両200の側方に駐車枠Sが存在する場合には、カメラ31により送電コイルユニット102を撮像できず、特許文献1に示したような駐車支援はもとより、運転者は画像から送電コイルユニット102の確認も行うことができない。また、車両200の前方や側方にもカメラ31を備え、アラウンドビューを表示する車両200であったとしても、AVMの表示範囲は車両周囲の近傍に限られることから、表示部32上に送電コイルユニット102を表示することができない。このような場合、運転者は駐車目標を確認することが困難となってしまう。 However, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, when the parking frame S is present on the side of the vehicle 200, the power transmission coil unit 102 cannot be captured by the camera 31, and parking assistance as shown in Patent Document 1 is not possible. Of course, the driver cannot confirm the power transmission coil unit 102 from the image. In addition, even if the vehicle 200 is provided with a camera 31 in front and on the side of the vehicle 200 and displays an around view, the AVM display range is limited to the vicinity of the vehicle periphery. The coil unit 102 cannot be displayed. In such a case, it becomes difficult for the driver to confirm the parking target.
 そこで、本実施形態において非接触給電装置100はマーカMを備えている。図2に示すようにマーカMは、送電コイルユニット102よりも、車両を駐車する時に車両が進入してくる側において、当該送電コイルユニット102と対応して設けられている。マーカMは、例えばLEDなどの発光体、路面に描かれたマーク、及び立体的な構造物などにより構成されている。なお、立体的な構造物は、車両200の下に潜り込める高さであることは言うまでもない。また、マーカMは、「送電コイルユニット102と対応して設けられ」ているが、これは、マーカMが送電コイルユニット102の存在を示すために設けられていることを意味している。 Therefore, in this embodiment, the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 includes a marker M. As shown in FIG. 2, the marker M is provided in correspondence with the power transmission coil unit 102 on the side where the vehicle enters when the vehicle is parked, rather than the power transmission coil unit 102. The marker M is composed of, for example, a light emitter such as an LED, a mark drawn on a road surface, a three-dimensional structure, and the like. Needless to say, the three-dimensional structure has a height that can be buried under the vehicle 200. Further, the marker M is “provided corresponding to the power transmission coil unit 102”, which means that the marker M is provided to indicate the presence of the power transmission coil unit 102.
 このように本実施形態ではマーカMを駐車時における車両進入側に備えているため、運転者は、例えば送電コイルユニット102が画像内に存在しない場合であっても、送電コイルユニット102への目印となるマーカMを参照することで、送電コイルユニット102に向けて車両200を移動させることができる。 Thus, in this embodiment, since the marker M is provided on the vehicle entry side during parking, the driver can mark the power transmission coil unit 102 even when the power transmission coil unit 102 is not present in the image, for example. By referring to the marker M that becomes, the vehicle 200 can be moved toward the power transmission coil unit 102.
 図3は、AVMにより表示された画像を示す。例えば車両200がAVMを備える場合、図3に示すように、表示領域は車両200の周囲近傍に限られる。このため、画像内には送電コイルユニット102が存在しなくなってしまう。しかし、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100はマーカMを備えるため、図3に示すように、マーカMが画像内に存在することとなり、駐車目標の確認が容易化されることとなる。 FIG. 3 shows an image displayed by AVM. For example, when the vehicle 200 includes an AVM, the display area is limited to the vicinity of the vehicle 200 as shown in FIG. For this reason, the power transmission coil unit 102 does not exist in the image. However, since the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment includes the marker M, the marker M is present in the image as shown in FIG. 3, and the parking target can be easily confirmed.
 なお、上記では、カメラ31を備え、カメラ31により撮像された画像を表示部32から運転者へ提供する車両200について説明している。これに限らず、カメラ31を備えない車両についても駐車目標の確認を容易化することができる。例えば、マーカMがLEDなどの発光体にて構成されている場合、夜間や降雨時には送電コイルユニット102自体が見え難くなり、駐車目標の確認が困難となってしまう。本実施形態ではマーカMの発光により、確認の容易化を図ることができる。 In the above description, the vehicle 200 that includes the camera 31 and provides an image captured by the camera 31 from the display unit 32 to the driver is described. The parking target can be easily confirmed not only for this but also for a vehicle that does not include the camera 31. For example, when the marker M is composed of a light emitter such as an LED, the power transmission coil unit 102 itself is difficult to see at night or during rain, making it difficult to confirm the parking target. In this embodiment, the confirmation can be facilitated by the light emission of the marker M.
 さらに、駐車場では停車中の他車両が多数存在する場合がある。このような場合には、視界が良好なときであっても、他車両によって送電コイルユニット102が隠れてしまい、駐車目標の確認が困難となってしまう。しかし、本実施形態では送電コイルユニット102よりも駐車時における車両進入側にマーカMを備えている。このため、他車両によって送電コイルユニット102が隠れてしまっても、マーカMが確認できる場合がある。このため、駐車目標の確認について容易化を図ることができる。 In addition, there may be many other vehicles that are parked in the parking lot. In such a case, even when the visibility is good, the power transmission coil unit 102 is hidden by another vehicle, making it difficult to check the parking target. However, in this embodiment, the marker M is provided on the vehicle entry side during parking than the power transmission coil unit 102. For this reason, even if the power transmission coil unit 102 is hidden by another vehicle, the marker M may be confirmed. For this reason, it is possible to facilitate the confirmation of the parking target.
 さらに、マーカMは、図2に示すように、送電コイルユニット102よりも、車両を駐車するための駐車枠Sの長手方向前方側に離れた位置に設けられている。このため、マーカMを参照した運転者は、マーカMの位置から駐車枠Sの後方に車両200を移動させることで送電コイルユニット102に向けて車両200を移動させることでき、駐車目標の確認について一層容易化を図ることができる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the marker M is provided at a position farther forward than the power transmission coil unit 102 in the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S for parking the vehicle. For this reason, the driver who referred to the marker M can move the vehicle 200 toward the power transmission coil unit 102 by moving the vehicle 200 to the rear of the parking frame S from the position of the marker M, and confirming the parking target. Further simplification can be achieved.
 図4は、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100の設置状態の第1変形例を示す図であり、図5は、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100の設置状態の第2変形例を示す図である。図4に示すように、2以上のマーカMが、送電コイルユニット102から駐車枠Sの長手方向前方側に沿って連続して設けられていてもよい。さらには、図5に示すように、マーカMは、長尺形状とされ、送電コイルユニット102から駐車枠Sの長手方向前方側に沿って連続的に設けられていてもよい。換言すれば、送電コイルユニット102から駐車枠Sの長手方向に伸びる線状の形状を有していてもよい。 FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a first modification of the installation state of the contactless power supply apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 5 is a second modification of the installation state of the contactless power supply apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment. FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, two or more markers M may be provided continuously from the power transmission coil unit 102 along the front side in the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5, the marker M may have a long shape, and may be continuously provided from the power transmission coil unit 102 along the front side in the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S. In other words, it may have a linear shape extending from the power transmission coil unit 102 in the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S.
 このような構成とすることにより、運転者は連続するマーカMに沿って車両200を移動させることで、駐車枠S等を参照しなくても送電コイルユニット102に向けて車両200を移動させることができ、駐車目標の確認について、より一層容易化を図ることができる。 With this configuration, the driver moves the vehicle 200 along the continuous marker M, thereby moving the vehicle 200 toward the power transmission coil unit 102 without referring to the parking frame S or the like. Thus, the confirmation of the parking target can be further facilitated.
 次に、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100を用いた車両200の駐車の概要について説明する。図6は、車両200の駐車の概要を説明する上面図である。 Next, an outline of parking of the vehicle 200 using the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 according to this embodiment will be described. FIG. 6 is a top view for explaining an outline of parking of the vehicle 200.
 先ず、図6(a)に示すように、車両200が駐車場に進入したとする。このとき、車両200の運転者からは、他車両400が影となり送電コイルユニット102を確認することができないが、マーカMを確認できる。このため、駐車目標の確認について容易化を図ることができる。 First, it is assumed that the vehicle 200 enters the parking lot as shown in FIG. At this time, from the driver of the vehicle 200, the other vehicle 400 becomes a shadow and the power transmission coil unit 102 cannot be confirmed, but the marker M can be confirmed. For this reason, it is possible to facilitate the confirmation of the parking target.
 更に、運転者は車両200を駐車枠S内に駐車しようとして、やや左旋回しつつ前方に進行したとする。このとき、図6(b)に示すように、カメラ31の視野角内にマーカMは存在するが、送電コイルユニット102が存在しない場合もある。このような場合、本実施形態では表示部32に表示された画像からマーカMを確認できるため、駐車目標の確認について容易化を図ることができる。 Furthermore, it is assumed that the driver tries to park the vehicle 200 in the parking frame S and proceeds forward while making a slight left turn. At this time, as shown in FIG. 6B, the marker M exists within the viewing angle of the camera 31, but the power transmission coil unit 102 may not exist. In such a case, in this embodiment, since the marker M can be confirmed from the image displayed on the display unit 32, the parking target can be easily confirmed.
 その後、運転者は、図6(c)に示すように車両200を後退させて、車両200を適切な位置に駐車しようとする。このとき、図6(c)の破線に示すように、駐車枠Sの長手方向に2以上のマーカMが連続していれば(すなわち、図4及び図5に示す例のようにマーカMが構成されていれば)、連続する方向に送電コイルユニット102が存在することを運転者へ伝えることができる。駐車目標の確認についてより一層容易化を図ることができる。 After that, the driver tries to park the vehicle 200 at an appropriate position by moving the vehicle 200 backward as shown in FIG. At this time, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 6C, if two or more markers M are continuous in the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S (that is, the markers M are not as shown in the examples shown in FIGS. 4 and 5). If configured, the driver can be informed that the power transmission coil unit 102 exists in a continuous direction. The confirmation of the parking target can be further facilitated.
 なお、図6では、車両後方にカメラ31を備える例を説明したが、AVMを備える車両であっても、図3及び図6に示すように、駐車目標の確認について容易化を図ることができることは言うまでもない。 In addition, although the example provided with the camera 31 in the vehicle rear was demonstrated in FIG. 6, even if it is a vehicle provided with AVM, as shown in FIG.3 and FIG.6, it can attain simplification about the confirmation of a parking target. Needless to say.
 このようにして、本実施形態に係わる非接触給電装置100及び方法によれば、送電コイルユニット102よりも、駐車時における車両進入側において送電コイルユニット102と対応してマーカMが設けられている。このため、例えば送電コイルユニット102が画像内に存在しない場合であっても、運転者は、送電コイルユニット102への目印となるマーカMを参照することができる。よって、運転者は、送電コイルユニット102の存在を知ることができるため、駐車目標の確認について容易化を図ることができる。 Thus, according to the non-contact power feeding apparatus 100 and the method according to the present embodiment, the marker M is provided corresponding to the power transmission coil unit 102 on the vehicle approach side at the time of parking than the power transmission coil unit 102. . For this reason, for example, even when the power transmission coil unit 102 is not present in the image, the driver can refer to the marker M that serves as a mark for the power transmission coil unit 102. Therefore, since the driver can know the presence of the power transmission coil unit 102, it is possible to facilitate the confirmation of the parking target.
 また、マーカMは、送電コイルユニット102から駐車枠Sの長手方向前方側に離れた位置に設けられているため、マーカMを参照した運転者はマーカMの位置から駐車枠Sの後方に送電コイルユニット102が存在することを知ることができる。従って、駐車目標の確認について一層容易化を図ることができる。 Further, since the marker M is provided at a position away from the power transmission coil unit 102 to the front side in the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S, the driver who refers to the marker M transmits power from the position of the marker M to the rear of the parking frame S. It can be known that the coil unit 102 exists. Therefore, it is possible to further facilitate the confirmation of the parking target.
 また、2以上のマーカMが、送電コイルユニット102から駐車枠Sの長手方向に沿って連続して設けられているため、運転者はマーカMが連続する方向に、送電コイルユニット102が存在することを知ることができる。従って、駐車目標の確認について、より一層容易化を図ることができる。また、連続するマーカMに沿って車両200を移動させることで、駐車枠S等を参照しなくても送電コイルユニット102に向けて車両を移動させることもできる。 Since two or more markers M are continuously provided from the power transmission coil unit 102 along the longitudinal direction of the parking frame S, the driver has the power transmission coil unit 102 in the direction in which the markers M are continuous. I can know that. Therefore, it is possible to further facilitate the confirmation of the parking target. Moreover, by moving the vehicle 200 along the continuous marker M, the vehicle can be moved toward the power transmission coil unit 102 without referring to the parking frame S or the like.
 以上、実施例に沿って本発明の内容を説明したが、本発明はこれらの記載に限定されるものではなく、種々の変形及び改良が可能であることは、当業者には自明である。例えば、本実施形態においては、マーカMは肉眼で視認可能なものにより構成されているが、これに限らず、肉眼では視認不可であるが、表示部32に表示された画像で視認可能なものであってもよい。 As mentioned above, although the content of the present invention has been described according to the embodiments, the present invention is not limited to these descriptions, and it is obvious to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements are possible. For example, in the present embodiment, the marker M is configured to be visible with the naked eye. However, the marker M is not limited to this, and is not visible with the naked eye, but is visible with the image displayed on the display unit 32. It may be.
