Abstract

A coil module is disposed inside an electronic apparatus and receives prescribed power. The coil module includes a loop coil, a plate-like magnetic body that is disposed on the loop coil, and a conductive member that has prescribed conductivity and is disposed parallel with the plate-like magnetic body and on a surface, opposite to a surface on which the loop coil is disposed, of the magnetic body. The conductive member projects outward relative to at least a portion of a circumferential surface of the magnetic body.
