（車両用充電システムの全体構成）
図１Ａに示すように、本実施の形態に係る車両用充電システム１００は、車両９と、車両９が駐車される駐車スペースの設置面７ａに設置された車両用送電装置１と、車両９に近傍に設置された電源設備８と、から構成される。 (Overall structure of vehicle charging system)
As shown in FIG. 1A, a vehicle charging system 100 according to the present embodiment includes a vehicle 9, a vehicle power transmission device 1 installed on an installation surface 7a of a parking space in which the vehicle 9 is parked, and a vehicle 9. Power supply equipment 8 installed in the vicinity.
なお、以下の説明においては、車両９の前後方向をＸ方向とし、車両９の車幅方向をＹ方向とし、車両９の車高方向（設置面７ａに対して垂直な方向）をＺ方向とする。また説明の便宜上、Ｚ方向において、設置面７ａから遠ざかる方向を上方といい、設置面７ａに近づく方向を下方という。 In the following description, the front-rear direction of the vehicle 9 is the X direction, the vehicle width direction of the vehicle 9 is the Y direction, and the vehicle height direction of the vehicle 9 (direction perpendicular to the installation surface 7a) is the Z direction. To do. Further, for convenience of description, in the Z direction, a direction away from the installation surface 7a is referred to as an upward direction, and a direction approaching the installation surface 7a is referred to as a downward direction.
車両９には、車両９の下部に搭載されて受電コイル９１が内蔵される受電装置９０と、受電装置９０と電気的に接続された蓄電池９２とが設けられている。車両９は、例えば、電気自動車やプラグインハイブリッド自動車等の二次電池式の電気自動車である。 The vehicle 9 is provided with a power receiving device 90 that is mounted below the vehicle 9 and has a power receiving coil 91 built therein, and a storage battery 92 that is electrically connected to the power receiving device 90. The vehicle 9 is, for example, a secondary battery type electric vehicle such as an electric vehicle or a plug-in hybrid vehicle.
車両９は、受電装置９０の真下に車両用送電装置１が位置するように駐車されている。受電装置９０は、車両用送電装置１と対向する対向面９０ａを有している。本実施の形態では、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａが車両９の下面９ａと平行となるように、受電装置９０が配置されている。ここで、本実施の形態では、車両９の下面９ａは、設置面７ａと平行であるものとする。 The vehicle 9 is parked so that the vehicle power transmitting device 1 is located directly below the power receiving device 90. The power receiving device 90 has a facing surface 90 a that faces the vehicle power transmitting device 1. In the present embodiment, power reception device 90 is arranged such that opposing surface 90a of power reception device 90 is parallel to lower surface 9a of vehicle 9. Here, in the present embodiment, lower surface 9a of vehicle 9 is assumed to be parallel to installation surface 7a.
車両用送電装置１は、電源設備８と電源ケーブル８０を介して接続されている。また、車両用送電装置１は、送電コイル２０が取り付けられた送電ケース２を備え、この送電ケース２が後述する昇降機構４によってＺ方向に沿って昇降する。 The vehicle power transmission device 1 is connected to the power supply facility 8 via a power cable 80. Further, the vehicle power transmission device 1 includes a power transmission case 2 to which a power transmission coil 20 is attached, and the power transmission case 2 is moved up and down in the Z direction by an elevating mechanism 4 described later.
送電ケース２は、Ｚ方向における最も下限の位置である格納位置と、格納位置から所定の距離だけ上昇した特定の充電位置との間を進退移動可能に設けられている。送電ケース２の充電位置は、車両９の種類や車両９の車高の高さに応じて適宜設定される。ただし、送電ケース２の位置は、車両用送電装置１の状態を限定するものではない。つまり、送電ケース２が充電位置にあることが、必ずしも車両用送電装置１が充電していることを意味するものではない。 The power transmission case 2 is provided so as to be able to move back and forth between a storage position, which is the lowest position in the Z direction, and a specific charging position that is elevated by a predetermined distance from the storage position. The charging position of the power transmission case 2 is appropriately set according to the type of the vehicle 9 and the height of the vehicle 9. However, the position of the power transmission case 2 does not limit the state of the vehicle power transmission device 1. That is, the fact that the power transmission case 2 is at the charging position does not necessarily mean that the vehicle power transmission device 1 is charged.
電源設備８は、例えば商用電源、自家発電機、バッテリー等の蓄電装置からなる。電源設備８は、設置面７ａに対して固定され、図示しない電源供給部から供給される商用交流電力を高周波の電力に変換し、当該電力を車両用送電装置１に電源ケーブル８０を介して出力する。 The power supply facility 8 includes, for example, a commercial power supply, a private power generator, and a power storage device such as a battery. The power supply facility 8 is fixed to the installation surface 7 a, converts commercial AC power supplied from a power supply unit (not shown) into high-frequency power, and outputs the power to the vehicle power transmission device 1 via the power cable 80. To do.
図１Ｂに示すように、車両用送電装置１は、送電コイル２０が取り付けられた送電ケース２と、設置面７ａに配置されたベース３と、送電ケース２とベース３との間に配置されて送電ケース２を弾性的に支持する支持部材としての第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４（図１Ｂでは第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２のみ図示する）と、を備えている。 As shown in FIG. 1B, the vehicle power transmission device 1 includes a power transmission case 2 to which the power transmission coil 20 is attached, a base 3 placed on the installation surface 7 a, and the power transmission case 2 and the base 3. First to fourth springs 431 to 434 (only the first and second springs 431 and 432 are shown in FIG. 1B) as a supporting member that elastically supports the power transmission case 2.
第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４は、送電ケース２に対して設置面７ａから遠ざかる上昇方向に弾性力を付与している。本実施の形態では、送電ケース２の姿勢及び安定性を考慮して、本発明における支持部材として４つのスプリングを設けているが、支持部材の数はこれに限定されない。支持部材は、例えば１つでも２つでもよい。なお、第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４は、本発明における「弾性部材」に相当する。 The first to fourth springs 431 to 434 apply elastic force to the power transmission case 2 in a rising direction away from the installation surface 7a. In the present embodiment, four springs are provided as support members in the present invention in consideration of the posture and stability of power transmission case 2, but the number of support members is not limited to this. The number of supporting members may be one or two, for example. The first to fourth springs 431 to 434 correspond to the "elastic member" in the present invention.
本実施の形態では、第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４にコイルばねを用いているがこれに限定されない。例えば、送電ケース２の格納位置におけるＺ方向の寸法を小さくすることを考慮して、圧縮されたときのＺ方向の長さを小さくできる円錐バネやたる型ばねを用いてもよい。 In the present embodiment, coil springs are used as the first to fourth springs 431 to 434, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in consideration of reducing the dimension in the Z direction at the storage position of the power transmission case 2, a conical spring or a barrel spring that can reduce the length in the Z direction when compressed may be used.
送電ケース２の表面２２ａ（後述するカバー部２２の表面）が受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと接触した状態において、受電装置９０に電力が供給される。 Power is supplied to the power receiving device 90 in a state where the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 (the surface of the cover portion 22 described later) is in contact with the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90.
この構成によれば、送電ケース２が第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４に弾性的に支持されているので、受電装置９０の位置が上下方向に変位し、あるいは設置面７ａに対して傾斜した場合に、送電ケース２の表面２２ａが受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと接触した状態を維持することが可能である。 According to this configuration, since the power transmission case 2 is elastically supported by the first to fourth springs 431 to 434, the position of the power receiving device 90 is vertically displaced or inclined with respect to the installation surface 7a. In this case, the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 can be kept in contact with the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90.
受電装置９０の対向面９０ａに車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２が接触した状態において、車両用送電装置１に電源設備８から電力が供給されると、送電コイル２０に電流が流れて、送電コイル２０と受電コイル９１とが磁気的に結合する。これにより、車両用送電装置１から受電装置９０に対して非接触で電力が供給される。 When power is supplied from the power supply facility 8 to the vehicle power transmission device 1 in a state where the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 is in contact with the facing surface 90a of the power reception device 90, a current flows through the power transmission coil 20 to transmit power. The coil 20 and the power receiving coil 91 are magnetically coupled. As a result, electric power is supplied from the vehicle power transmitting device 1 to the power receiving device 90 in a contactless manner.
受電装置９０に供給される電力は、受電コイル９１によって蓄電池９２に供給されて当該蓄電池９２に蓄えられる。この蓄電池９２に蓄えられた電力によって不図示の電動機を駆動させることで車両９が走行する。 The power supplied to the power receiving device 90 is supplied to the storage battery 92 by the power receiving coil 91 and is stored in the storage battery 92. The vehicle 9 runs by driving an electric motor (not shown) with the electric power stored in the storage battery 92.

（駆動ユニット）
図８は、ユニットケース５に収容された駆動ユニット４０の構成を示す平面図である。 (Drive unit)
FIG. 8 is a plan view showing the configuration of the drive unit 40 housed in the unit case 5.
駆動ユニット４０は、ユニットケース５の収納部５０内に形成された収容空間５０ａに収容されている。収容部５０は、Ｚ方向の上方が開口している。駆動ユニット４０は、ドラム４２がユニットケース５の長手方向（Ｘ方向）における収納部５０の中央部に位置するように配置されている。これにより、ドラム４２と方向転換部５０１との間に配索される第１ワイヤ４４１の長さと、第２ワイヤ４４２の長さが等しくなる。 The drive unit 40 is housed in a housing space 50 a formed in the housing part 50 of the unit case 5. The accommodation portion 50 is open at the upper side in the Z direction. The drive unit 40 is arranged such that the drum 42 is located at the center of the storage section 50 in the longitudinal direction (X direction) of the unit case 5. As a result, the length of the first wire 441 arranged between the drum 42 and the direction changing portion 501 becomes equal to the length of the second wire 442.
駆動ユニット４０のアクチュエータ４１は、モータ４１１と、モータ４１１の回転を減速する減速機４１２と、を有している。減速機４１２は、モータ４１１の出力を受けて回転する第１のギヤ部４１２ａと、第１のギヤ部４１２ａの回転を減速してドラム４２に出力する第２のギヤ部４１２ｂと、を有している。 The actuator 41 of the drive unit 40 includes a motor 411 and a speed reducer 412 that reduces the rotation of the motor 411. The speed reducer 412 includes a first gear portion 412a that receives the output of the motor 411 and rotates, and a second gear portion 412b that reduces the rotation of the first gear portion 412a and outputs the reduced speed to the drum 42. ing.
モータ４１１が回転すると、ドラム４２が回転軸Ｏを中心として時計回り方向（矢印Ｒ方向）に回転し、第１及び第２ワイヤ４４１，４４２がそれぞれ送り出される。一方、モータ４１１が逆回転すると、ドラム４２が回転軸Ｏを中心として反時計回り方向（矢印Ｑ方向）に回転し、第１及び第２ワイヤ４４１，４４２がそれぞれ巻き取られる。 When the motor 411 rotates, the drum 42 rotates in the clockwise direction (arrow R direction) about the rotation axis O, and the first and second wires 441 and 442 are respectively fed. On the other hand, when the motor 411 rotates in the reverse direction, the drum 42 rotates in the counterclockwise direction (direction of arrow Q) about the rotation axis O, and the first and second wires 441 and 442 are wound up.
ドラム４２から導出される第１ワイヤ４４１は、方向転換部５０１によって上下方向に沿って配索方向を転換され、ユニットケース５の収納部５０から外部に導出されている。第２ワイヤ４４２についても同様である。 The first wire 441 led out from the drum 42 has its wiring direction changed along the up-down direction by the direction changing portion 501, and is led out from the housing portion 50 of the unit case 5 to the outside. The same applies to the second wire 442.

Similarly, a wire end 442a is provided at the end of the second wire 442 opposite to the end connected to the drum 42.
（車両用送電装置１の昇降動作）
次に、車両用送電装置１の昇降動作について図９を参照して説明する。図９は、図６Ａにおいて、駆動ユニット４０を含むＡ－Ａ線に沿った断面図である。 (Elevating operation of the vehicle power transmission device 1)
Next, the lifting operation of the vehicle power transmission device 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 9. FIG. 9 is a sectional view taken along line AA including the drive unit 40 in FIG. 6A.
アクチュエータ４１のモータ４１１が回転すると、ドラム４２によって第１及び第２ワイヤ４４１，４４２が矢印Ａ方向に沿ってそれぞれ送り出されると共に、送電ケース２が第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４（図９では第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４４２のみ示す）の弾性力を受けて上昇する。 When the motor 411 of the actuator 41 rotates, the drum 42 sends the first and second wires 441 and 442 along the direction of arrow A, and the power transmission case 2 causes the first to fourth springs 431 to 434 (see FIG. 9). The elastic force of only the first and second springs 431 and 442 is shown) to increase.
一方、アクチュエータ４１のモータ４１１が逆回転すると、ドラム４２によって第１及び第２ワイヤ４４１，４４２が矢印Ｂ方向に沿ってそれぞれ巻き取られると共に、送電ケース２が第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４（図９では第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２のみ示す）の弾性力に抗して下降する。 On the other hand, when the motor 411 of the actuator 41 rotates in the reverse direction, the drum 42 winds the first and second wires 441 and 442 along the arrow B direction, respectively, and the power transmission case 2 moves the first to fourth springs 431 to 434. (In FIG. 9, only the first and second springs 431 and 432 are shown) and the elastic force is lowered.
次に、車両用送電装置１の作用及び効果について図１０Ａ～図１０Ｃを参照して説明する。 Next, the operation and effect of the vehicle power transmission device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 10C.
図１０Ａは、車両９の車高が上昇した際における車用送電装置１の動作、図１０Ｂは、車両９の車高が下降した際における車用送電装置１の動作、図１０Ｃは、車両９が設置面７ａに対して傾いた際における車用送電装置１の動作を模式的に示した説明図である。 10A shows the operation of the vehicle power transmission device 1 when the vehicle height of the vehicle 9 rises, FIG. 10B shows the operation of the vehicle power transmission device 1 when the vehicle height of the vehicle 9 drops, and FIG. 10C shows the vehicle 9 It is explanatory drawing which showed typically the operation | movement of the vehicle power transmission device 1 at the time of inclining with respect to the installation surface 7a.
なお、図１０Ａ～図１０Ｃでは、第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４のうち第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２のみ示し、車高変動後の車両９、送電ケース２、並びに第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２を二点鎖線で示している。 10A to 10C, only the first and second springs 431 and 432 of the first to fourth springs 431 to 434 are shown, and the vehicle 9, the power transmission case 2, and the first and second springs after the vehicle height change are shown. The springs 431 and 432 are indicated by a chain double-dashed line.
ところで、車両９の充電中、つまり車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２が充電位置にあって受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと送電ケース２の表面２２ａとが接触した状態で乗員が乗降する場合がある。この際、乗員の乗降に伴って車高が変動するため、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと送電ケース２の表面２２ａとの間における位置ずれが生じて充電効率の低下を引き起こすおそれがある。 By the way, when the vehicle 9 is being charged, that is, when the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 is at the charging position and the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 and the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 are in contact with each other, an occupant may get on and off. is there. At this time, the vehicle height fluctuates as the occupant gets in and out of the vehicle, so that there is a possibility that a positional shift occurs between the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 and the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 and the charging efficiency is reduced.
例えば、車高が上昇した場合には、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａが送電ケース２から遠ざかる方向に移動して、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと送電ケース２の表面２２ａとの間に隙間ができるため、送電効率の低下の要因となる。 For example, when the vehicle height increases, the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 moves in a direction away from the power transmitting case 2, and a gap is formed between the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 and the surface 22a of the power transmitting case 2. As a result, it causes a decrease in power transmission efficiency.
また、車高が傾動した場合には、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと送電ケース２の表面２２ａとが非平行となるので、これも送電効率の低下の要因となる。 Further, when the vehicle height tilts, the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 and the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 become non-parallel, which also causes a reduction in power transmission efficiency.
車高が下降した場合には、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａが下方に移動するので、この場合には送電ケース２も下方へ移動できないと、車両用送電装置１に対して負荷がかかるため、故障等の要因になるという別の問題がある。 When the vehicle height decreases, the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 moves downward, and in this case, if the power transmission case 2 cannot move downward, a load is applied to the vehicle power transmitting device 1, There is another problem that causes factors such as breakdown.
本実施の形態に係る車両用送電装置１は、上記した問題を鑑みて構成されたものであり、その作用及び効果について以下で説明する。 The vehicle power transmission device 1 according to the present embodiment is configured in view of the above problems, and its operation and effect will be described below.
図１０Ａに示すように、車両９の車高が上昇した場合には受電装置９０の対向面９０ａの位置が上方へ変位する。これに伴って、車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２が、第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２の弾性力によって上方へ移動する。この際、送電ケース２は、その表面２２ａが受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと接触した状態を維持するように、上方へ移動する。このように、車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２は、車両９の受電装置９０の上昇に追従するように変位する。なお、送電ケース２の上方への移動は、例えば送電ケース２の表面２２ａが受電装置９０の対向面９０ａから離れたことを検出した後、モータ４１１を回転させて第１及び第２ワイヤ４４１，４４２をそれぞれ送り出すことによって行うことができる。 As shown in FIG. 10A, when the vehicle height of the vehicle 9 rises, the position of the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 is displaced upward. Along with this, the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 moves upward due to the elastic force of the first and second springs 431 and 432. At this time, the power transmission case 2 moves upward so that the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 is kept in contact with the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90. In this way, the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 is displaced so as to follow the rise of the power receiving device 90 of the vehicle 9. The upward movement of the power transmission case 2 is performed by, for example, detecting that the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 is separated from the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90, and then rotating the motor 411 to move the first and second wires 441, 441. This can be done by sending out 442 respectively.
図１０Ｂに示すように、車両９の車高が下降した場合には受電装置９０の対向面９０ａの位置が下方へ変位する。これに伴って、車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２が、第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２を圧縮するように下方へ移動する。この際、第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２は圧縮に応じた弾性力を送電ケース２に対して付与しているので、送電ケース２の表面２２ａと受電装置９０の対向面９０ａとは接触した状態が維持される。このように、車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２は、車両９の受電装置９０の下降に追従するように変位する。 As shown in FIG. 10B, when the vehicle height of the vehicle 9 is lowered, the position of the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 is displaced downward. Along with this, the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 moves downward so as to compress the first and second springs 431 and 432. At this time, since the first and second springs 431 and 432 provide the elastic force corresponding to the compression to the power transmission case 2, the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 and the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 are in contact with each other. The state is maintained. In this way, the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 is displaced so as to follow the lowering of the power receiving device 90 of the vehicle 9.
図１０Ｃに示すように、車両９の車高が傾動した場合には受電装置９０の対向面９０ａが送電ケース２の表面２２ａに対して傾く。これに伴って、第１スプリング４３１が圧縮すると共に第２スプリング４３２が伸長する。つまり、送電ケース２の表面２２ａと受電装置９０の対向面９０ａとの接触状態が維持されるように、送電ケース２が傾動する。このように、車両用送電装置１の送電ケース２は、車両９の受電装置９０の傾動に追従するように変位する。なお、第２スプリング４３２の伸長は、例えば上記送電ケース２の上方への移動と同様に行うことができる。 As shown in FIG. 10C, when the vehicle height of the vehicle 9 tilts, the facing surface 90 a of the power receiving device 90 tilts with respect to the surface 22 a of the power transmission case 2. Along with this, the first spring 431 is compressed and the second spring 432 is expanded. That is, the power transmission case 2 tilts so that the contact state between the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 and the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 is maintained. In this way, the power transmission case 2 of the vehicle power transmission device 1 is displaced so as to follow the tilting of the power receiving device 90 of the vehicle 9. The extension of the second spring 432 can be performed, for example, in the same manner as the upward movement of the power transmission case 2.
以上説明したように、本実施の形態では、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと表面２２ａとを接触させた状態を維持するように、送電ケース２が第１乃至第４スプリング４３１～４３４によって弾性的に支持されている。これにより、車両９における車高の変動に伴って受電装置９０の位置が移動した場合であっても、受電装置９０の対向面９０ａと送電ケース２の表面２２ａとの間における位置ずれを抑制することができる。つまり、車高変動に伴う充電効率の低下を抑制することができる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, the power transmission case 2 is elastic by the first to fourth springs 431 to 434 so as to maintain the state where the facing surface 90a and the surface 22a of the power receiving device 90 are in contact with each other. Supported by. Accordingly, even if the position of the power receiving device 90 moves due to the change in the vehicle height of the vehicle 9, the positional deviation between the facing surface 90a of the power receiving device 90 and the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2 is suppressed. be able to. That is, it is possible to suppress a decrease in charging efficiency due to a change in vehicle height.
また、車両用送電装置１は、送電ケース２の表面２２ａの異物を検知する検知手段と、検知手段によって異物を検知した場合に送電ケース２を傾動させるように駆動ユニット４０を制御する制御部を備えていてもよい。これにより、送電ケース２の表面２２ａに異物がある場合には、送電ケース２が傾動するように駆動ユニット４０を制御することにより、異物を落下させることが可能である。これにより、異物による送電効率の低下を抑制することができる。なお、一対の駆動ユニット４０のうち一方の駆動ユニット４０だけを作動させて第１及び第２スプリング４３１，４３２のみの弾性力によって送電ケース２の片端だけ上昇させることにより、意図的に送電ケース２を傾動させることが可能である。 Further, the vehicle power transmission device 1 includes a detection unit that detects foreign matter on the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2, and a control unit that controls the drive unit 40 to tilt the power transmission case 2 when the detection unit detects the foreign matter. You may have it. Thus, when foreign matter is present on the surface 22a of the power transmission case 2, the foreign matter can be dropped by controlling the drive unit 40 so that the power transmission case 2 tilts. As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in power transmission efficiency due to foreign matter. Note that, by operating only one drive unit 40 of the pair of drive units 40 and raising only one end of the power transmission case 2 by the elastic force of only the first and second springs 431 and 432, the power transmission case 2 is intentionally It is possible to tilt.
