COIL UNIT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240308357 titled 'COIL UNIT
The abstract describes a coil unit that includes an electric power reception portion of an electric power reception device mounted on a vehicle and a control device. The electric power reception portion consists of a secondary side coil and a secondary side capacitor connected in series, receiving AC electric power in a contactless manner from an electric power transmission device. The secondary side coil generates a reverse-phase current with respect to the primary side coil when receiving the AC electric power. The capacitance of the secondary side capacitor is set to resonate at a high frequency side of two resonance points in accordance with the secondary side coil and the secondary side capacitor.
