Publication number: 20140325830Abstract: By supplying power from the power-supplying resonator to the power-receiving resonator by means of resonance, an electromagnetic space having a relatively low magnetic field strength is formed between the power-supplying resonator and the power-receiving resonator. In so doing, the position where the electromagnetic space is formed is changed by setting the frequency of the AC power supplied from an AC power source to the power-supplying module to an antiphase resonance mode or an inphase resonance mode, and the size of the electromagnetic space is changed by changing the distance between the power-supplying coil and the power-supplying resonator and the distance between the power-receiving resonator and the power-receiving coil.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2013Publication date: November 6, 2014Applicant: NITTO DENKO CORPORATIONInventors: Takezo Hatanaka, Masami Inoue, Hisashi Tsuda
