  • Patent number: 10065515
    Abstract: On the ground, a plurality of primary power supply transformers are separately installed with a longitudinal direction of magnetic poles matching a vehicle traveling direction. The primary power supply transformers each include a double-sided coil with an H-shaped core around which a wire is wound. On a vehicle, a secondary power supply transformer including an H-shaped core is mounted with a longitudinal direction of magnetic poles matching a vehicle front-back direction. The distance between the primary power supply transformers is set such that the distance between the centers of the magnetic poles of the neighboring primary power supply transformers does not exceed 3D where D represents the size of the magnetic poles.

  • Patent number: 9502176
    Abstract: A contactless power transfer transformer includes main body. The main body includes magnetic pole core members, winding wire core member, and wire. The winding wire core member is orthogonal to the magnetic pole core members and connects one portion of each of the pair of parallel magnetic pole core members with each other. The main body is fixed to fixing plate having a magnetic shield function and heat dissipation function. The connecting position of the winding wire core member with respect to the magnetic pole core members is located toward one side from a center in the longitudinal direction of the magnetic pole core members. At least a space between the pair of the magnetic coil core members each containing an end portion longer in distance to the connecting position is used as an arrangement space of component electrically connected to the electric wire.

  • Publication number: 20160126750
    Abstract: A SS-method bidirectional contactless power supply device is arranged such that at the time of G2V, a second power converter converts commercial alternating current to direct current, a first power converter converts the direct current to high-frequency alternating current, and a third power converter converts the high-frequency alternating current to the direct current to charge an electric storage device. On driving the first power converter with a constant voltage, the electric storage device is charged with a constant current. At the time of V2G, the third power converter converts the direct current to the high-frequency alternating current, the first power converter converts the high-frequency alternating current to the direct current, and the second power converter converts the direct current to the commercial alternating current. On driving the third power converter with the constant current, an output of the first power converter becomes the constant voltage.

  • Patent number: 5086381
    Abstract: A DC-DC converter includes a transformer and a switching element. The primary winding of the transformer and the switching element are connecting in series with a DC power source. A DC output is extracted via a rectifier circuit connected to a secondary winding of the transformer. A capacitor is connected in parallel to the switching element, and a saturable reactor is connected between the secondary winding of the transformer and the rectifier.
