NON-CONTACT POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM
A non-contact power supply system for supplying power from a power transmission-side AC source to a power receiving-side load in a non-contact manner includes a power transmission-side resonance coil receiving AC power supplied from the AC source, a power receiving-side resonance coil having a resonant frequency causing electromagnetic-coupling to the power transmission-side resonance coil, a power transmission-side transformer disposed between the power transmission-side resonance coil and the AC source, and a power receiving-side transformer disposed between the power receiving-side resonance coil and the load.
1 . A non-contact power supply system for supplying power from a power transmission-side AC source to a power receiving-side load in a non-contact manner, comprising:
a power transmission-side resonance coil receiving AC power supplied from the AC source;
a power receiving-side resonance coil having a resonant frequency causing electromagnetic-coupling to the power transmission-side resonance coil;
a power transmission-side transformer disposed between the power transmission-side resonance coil and the AC source; and
a power receiving-side transformer disposed between the power receiving-side resonance coil and the load.
2 . The non-contact power supply system according to claim 1 , wherein the power transmission-side transformer is configured such that the number of turns in a primary coil on the AC source side is less than the number of turns in a secondary coil on the power transmission-side resonance coil side, and
wherein the power receiving-side transformer is configured such that the number of turns in a primary coil on the power receiving-side resonance coil side is more than the number of turns in a secondary coil on the load side.
3 . The non-contact power supply system according to claim 2 , wherein the power transmission-side transformer is configured such that the number of turns in the secondary coil on the power transmission-side resonance coil side is not more than twice the number of turns in the primary coil on the AC source side, and
wherein the power receiving-side transformer is configured such that the number of turns in the primary coil on the power receiving-side resonance coil side is not more than twice the number of turns in the secondary coil on the load side.
4 . The non-contact power supply system according to claim 2 , wherein the number of turns in the primary coil on the AC source side of the power transmission-side transformer is the same as that in the secondary coil on the load side of the power receiving-side transformer, and
wherein the number of turns in the secondary coil on the power transmission-side resonance coil side of the power transmission-side transformer is the same as that in the primary coil on the power receiving-side resonance coil side of the power receiving-side transformer.
5 . The non-contact power supply system according to claim 1 , wherein the power transmission-side transformer and the power receiving-side transformer each comprise a toroidal transformer.
