Patent number: 11926227Abstract: In a moving-object power supply system, a control unit selects, as a power transmission segment, one of segments included in at least one power transmission section. The control unit supplies, through a power supply circuit, power to the power transmission segment to thereby generate a magnetic field through a power transmission coil of the power transmission segment. The control unit determines, based on an ascertained first electrical characteristic of the power transmission segment and an ascertained second electrical characteristic of at least one power non-transmission segment, whether there is a malfunction in each of the power transmission segment and the at least one power non-transmission segment.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Kouji Mazaki, Nobuhisa Yamaguchi, Eisuke Takahashi, Mitsuru Shibanuma, Shinpei Takita, Masaya Takahashi, Hayato Sumiya, Masaki Kanesaki, Takuya Kiguchi, Kazuhiro Uda, Yuusei Nakayashiki

Publication number: 20230331102Abstract: A power reception apparatus is installable in a vehicle and configured to receive electric power from a power transmission coil embedded in the ground. The power reception apparatus includes: a relay coil that is arranged on a tired wheel, which includes a tire and a wheel, and includes a first coil and a second coil; a power reception coil; and a power reception circuit. The first coil and the second coil are connected with each other by an electrical conductor. The first coil is arranged inside the tire. The second coil is located so that a distance from a central axis of the tired wheel to the second coil is shorter than a distance from the central axis to the first coil. The power reception coil is located so that when the first coil faces the power transmission coil, the power reception coil faces the second coil.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2023Publication date: October 19, 2023Applicants: DENSO CORPORATION, THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO, BRIDGESTONE CORPORATIONInventors: Hayato SUMIYA, Shimpei TAKITA, Kazuhiro UDA, Eisuke TAKAHASHI, Nobuhisa YAMAGUCHI, Hiroshi FUJIMOTO, Osamu SHIMIZU, Yasumichi WAKAO, Isao KUWAYAMA

Publication number: 20210391757Abstract: A dynamic wireless power transfer system performs, through a plurality of primary coils installed along a traveling direction of a road and a secondary coil mounted in a vehicle, power transfer to the vehicle while the vehicle is traveling. The secondary coil is an M-phase coil including M coils, M denoting an integer which is two or higher. The M coils each include a coil end extending along a front-rear direction of the vehicle and a main coil portion extending along a width direction of the vehicle, the M coils each being configured such that a magnetic resistance of a magnetic path where a magnetic flux of the coil end passes is higher than a magnetic resistance of a magnetic path where a magnetic flux of the main coil portion passes.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2021Publication date: December 16, 2021Applicant: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Takuya KIGUCHI, Nobuhisa YAMAGUCHI, Eisuke TAKAHASHI, Hayato SUMIYA, Tomoyuki FUJIKAWA, Koji MAZAKI, Shimpei TAKITA, Masaki KANESAKI, Masaya TAKAHASHI, Kazuhiro UDA, Yusei NAKAYASHIKI, Mitsuru SHIBANUMA, Kazuyoshi OBAYASHI

Publication number: 20210143684Abstract: A contactless power feeding apparatus includes a plurality of primary coils mounted on a road and a power feed controller which uses a portion of the primary coils as a power transmitting coil to achieve delivery of electrical power from the power transmitting coil to a secondary coil mounted in a vehicle. The power feed controller uses a selected primary coil that is one of the primary coils other than the power transmitting coil to decrease a leakage of magnetic flux arising from excitation of the power transmitting coil. Instead of the selected primary coil, the secondary coil may be used to reduce the leakage of magnetic flux.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 15, 2021Publication date: May 13, 2021Applicant: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Hayato SUMIYA, Eisuke TAKAHASHI, Nobuhisa YAMAGUCHI, Kazuyoshi OBAYASHI, Shimpei TAKITA, Koji MAZAKI, Mitsuru SHIBANUMA, Masaki KANESAKI, Takuya KIGUCHI, Kazuhiro UDA
