  • Publication number: 20200103456
    Abstract: In a method to measure changes of the pair of differential transmission lines, an in-phase signal is generated by combining first and second signals transmitted through the pair of differential transmission lines, a phase of the second signal being opposite to the first signal. In a transmission line diagnostic device, a signal combiner extracts the first and second signals received by a communication unit, combines the extracted those signals, and generates an in-phase signal, a detector detects the generated in-phase signal, and a determination unit determines an error when a magnitude of the detected in-phase signal is equal to or greater than a threshold value. In a liquid level detection device, a combining unit combines the first and second signals and generate an in-phase signal, a detection unit detects a voltage of the generated in-phase signal, and a calculation unit calculates a liquid level from the detected voltage.

  • Patent number: 10075022
    Abstract: A power supplying system magnetically resonates between a primary resonant coil that configures a primary core unit and a secondary resonant coil that configures a secondary core unit for contactlessly supplying the power. The primary and secondary resonant coils are wound around the primary and secondary ferrite cores respectively, and face each other in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the primary and secondary resonant coils when supplying the power. The primary and secondary ferrite cores are divided into a plurality of portions along the axial direction of the primary and secondary resonant coils such that a width of the both end portions is shorter than a width of the center portion.

  • Patent number: 9859718
    Abstract: Provided is a power supply system in which an electromagnetic leakage is prevented. A power supply side resonance coil provided to a power supply unit and a power receiving side resonance coil provided to a power receiving unit are housed respectively in a conductive power supply side shield case and power receiving side shield case. The power supply side shield case is formed of a bottom wall covering a side of the power supply side resonance coil spaced apart from the power receiving side resonance coil and a vertical wall erecting from a periphery of the bottom wall, and a ferrite is provided onto surfaces of the bottom wall and the vertical wall.

  • Patent number: 9800062
    Abstract: Primary and secondary resonance circuits and include primary and secondary resonance coils and primary and secondary capacitors, respectively. Non-contact power supply is conducted by electromagnetic resonance of the primary and secondary resonance circuits and. A changeover circuit changes over connection of the secondary resonance coil and the secondary capacitor to a series connection or a parallel connection. A detection circuit detects impedance on a power receipt side. A changeover control circuit controls changeover conducted by the changeover circuit, depending upon the impedance detected by the detection circuit.
