According to the present invention, it is possible to perform efficient non-contact power transmission while avoiding a complicated configuration and an increase in circuit scale.
本発明の実施の形態の説明に先立ち、従来の技術における問題点を簡単に説明する。特許文献1には、送電アンテナとしての共鳴コイル及び共振容量を含む共振回路と、共鳴コイルと磁気的に結合可能に配置された第1コイルとを含み、共振回路の共振周波数が送電電力として出力される送電信号の周波数に近づくように、第1コイルの両端を短絡または開放する制御を行う非接触送電システムが開示されている。特許文献1に開示された非接触送電システムは、このような構成により、送電装置から出力される送電信号の周波数と共振回路の共振周波数とのずれを防止し、効率のよい非接触送電を行うことを目的としている。
Prior to the description of the embodiment of the present invention, the problems in the prior art will be briefly described. Patent Document 1 includes a resonance circuit including a resonance coil and a resonance capacitor as a power transmission antenna, and a first coil arranged to be magnetically coupled to the resonance coil, and the resonance frequency of the resonance circuit is output as transmission power. A non-contact power transmission system that performs control to short-circuit or open both ends of a first coil so as to approach the frequency of the transmitted power signal is disclosed.

For this reason, the positional relationship between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b is unchanged. However, since the vehicle 150 moves by the driving of the driver, the position of the power receiving coil 154a changes every time the vehicle 150 is parked in the parking space.
以下では、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合と、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からコイルの径方向、すなわち水平方向にずれている場合と、のそれぞれについて、コイルの位置関係について説明する。
In the following description, when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmission coil 104a, and the diameter of the coil from the position directly above the center position of the power transmission coil 104a. The positional relationship of the coils will be described for each of the directions, that is, the case where they are displaced in the horizontal direction.
図2Aおよび図2Bは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合の位置関係を示している。図2Aは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104bを真横から見た図である。一方、図2Bは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104bを真上から見た図である。
2A and 2B show a positional relationship when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. FIG. 2A is a view of the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b viewed from the side when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. On the other hand, FIG. 2B is a diagram in which the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b are viewed from directly above when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. is there.
なお、図2Aにおいて、「×」印はコイルの断面を意味している。すなわち、図2Aは輪状に束ねられた各コイルの垂直方向の断面を示した図である。図2Aおよび図2Bに示すように、送電コイル104aの外側に、送電コイル104aよりも径が大きい中継コイル104bが配置されている。
In FIG. 2A, the “x” mark means the cross section of the coil. That is, FIG. 2A is a view showing a cross section in the vertical direction of each coil bundled in a ring shape. As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, a relay coil 104b having a diameter larger than that of the power transmission coil 104a is disposed outside the power transmission coil 104a.
図2Aおよび図2Bに示すように、送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に受電コイル154aの中心の位置が位置している場合には、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離が、他の位置関係と比較して比較的近くなり、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数がほぼ最大となる。このため、送電コイル104aは受電コイル154aに対して、比較的効率のよい電力伝送を行うことができる。なお、結合係数とは、2つのコイル間の結合の度合いを示す無次元数である。結合係数の算出方法については本発明では限定しないが、結合係数は、一般に2つのコイル間の距離、および2つのコイルのサイズ比率等に基づいて決定される。
As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a, the distance between the power transmitting coil 104a and the power receiving coil 154a is other than And the coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a is almost maximized. For this reason, the power transmission coil 104a can perform relatively efficient power transmission to the power reception coil 154a. The coupling coefficient is a dimensionless number indicating the degree of coupling between two coils. The method for calculating the coupling coefficient is not limited in the present invention, but the coupling coefficient is generally determined based on the distance between the two coils, the size ratio of the two coils, and the like.
一方、図3Aおよび図3Bは、受電コイル154aが送電コイル104aの直上からずれ量Gだけコイルの径方向、すなわち水平方向にずれた位置にある場合の位置関係を示している。図3Aは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からずれ量Gだけ水平方向にずれた位置にある場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104bを真横から見た図である。一方、図3Bは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からずれ量Gだけ水平方向にずれた位置にある場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104bを真上から見た図である。
On the other hand, FIGS. 3A and 3B show the positional relationship when the power receiving coil 154a is in a position shifted in the radial direction of the coil, that is, in the horizontal direction from the position immediately above the power transmitting coil 104a. FIG. 3A shows that the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b are located from the side when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is shifted in the horizontal direction by a shift amount G from immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. FIG. On the other hand, FIG. 3B illustrates the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b in the case where the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is shifted in the horizontal direction from the position immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. It is the figure seen from right above.
図3Aおよび図3Bに示すように、送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上から水平方向にずれた位置に受電コイル154aの中心の位置が位置している場合には、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離が離れてしまい、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数が小さくなる。このため、図2Aおよび図2Bに示す場合(送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に受電コイル154aの中心の位置が位置している場合)と比較して、送電コイル104aから受電コイル154aへの電力伝送効率が低下してしまう。
As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located at a position shifted in the horizontal direction from directly above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a, the power transmitting coil 104a and the power receiving coil 154a are disposed. And the coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a is reduced. Therefore, compared with the case shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B (when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a), the power transmitting coil 104a is changed to the power receiving coil 154a. The power transmission efficiency will decrease.
しかし、図3Aに示すように、送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上から水平方向にずれた位置に受電コイル154aの中心の位置が位置している場合には、中継コイル104bの一部が送電コイル104aよりも受電コイル154aに近くなる。このような場合には、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104bを介して受電コイル154aに電力伝送が行われる。すなわち、中継コイル104bが、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの間の電力伝送を中継する。
However, as shown in FIG. 3A, when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located at a position shifted in the horizontal direction from directly above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a, a part of the relay coil 104b transmits power. It is closer to the power receiving coil 154a than the coil 104a. In such a case, power is transmitted from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a via the relay coil 104b. That is, the relay coil 104b relays power transmission between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a.
図4Aは、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104b、および受電コイル154aそれぞれの間の結合係数について説明するための図である。送電コイル104aおよび中継コイル104bは、実際には図1に示すように同一平面上に配置されているが、図4Aにおいては、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104b、および受電コイル154aのそれぞれの間の結合係数を示すために、これらが輪状に配置された図となっている。
FIG. 4A is a diagram for explaining coupling coefficients among the power transmission coil 104a, the relay coil 104b, and the power reception coil 154a. The power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b are actually arranged on the same plane as shown in FIG. 1, but in FIG. 4A, between the power transmission coil 104a, the relay coil 104b, and the power reception coil 154a. In order to show the coupling coefficients, these are arranged in a ring shape.
以下では、図4Aに示すように、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数をk1rと記載し、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数をk12と記載し、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数をk2rと記載する。ここで、本第1の実施の形態において、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数k12が本発明の第1の結合係数に、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数k2rが本発明の第2の結合係数に、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数をk1rが本発明の第3の結合係数に、それぞれ対応している。
In the following, as shown in FIG. 4A, the coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b is described as k 1r , the coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a is described as k 12, and the power reception coil 154a The coupling coefficient with the relay coil 104b is described as k2r . Here, in the present first embodiment, the coupling coefficient k 12 of the power transmission coil 104a and the receiving coil 154a is the first coupling coefficient of the present invention, the coupling coefficient k 2r in the receiving coil 154a and a relay coil 104b The coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b corresponds to the second coupling coefficient of the present invention, and k1r corresponds to the third coupling coefficient of the present invention.
図4Bは、結合係数k1r、k12、およびk2rの大きさと、送電コイル104aの中心の位置から見た受電コイル154aの中心の位置までの距離であるずれ量Gに応じた結合係数の変化を示す図である。図4Bに示すように、結合係数はコイル間の距離に応じて変化し、一般にコイル間の距離が遠くなるほど結合係数は小さくなる。図4Bにおいて、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとの距離は不変であるため、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数k1rはずれ量Gによって大きくは変化しない。
FIG. 4B shows the coupling coefficient k 1r , k 12 , and k 2r and the coupling coefficient corresponding to the shift amount G, which is the distance from the center position of the power transmission coil 104a to the center position of the power receiving coil 154a. It is a figure which shows a change. As shown in FIG. 4B, the coupling coefficient changes according to the distance between the coils, and generally the coupling coefficient decreases as the distance between the coils increases. In FIG. 4B, since the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b is not changed, the coupling coefficient k1r between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b does not change greatly depending on the shift amount G.
一方、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離、および中継コイル104bと受電コイル154aとの距離は、ずれ量Gに応じて変化する。図4Bに示す例では、ずれ量G1までは送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数k12の方が、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数k2rよりも大きくなっている。そして、ずれ量G1からずれ量GLまでは、k2rの方がk12よりも大きくなっている。換言すれば、ずれ量Gが0からGLまで変化する場合に、k12と、k2rのいずれも他方より大きくなる範囲が存在し、ずれ量G1においてその範囲が切り替わる。
On the other hand, the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a and the distance between the relay coil 104b and the power reception coil 154a change according to the shift amount G. In the example shown in FIG. 4B, until the deviation amount G 1 towards the coupling coefficient k 12 of the power transmission coil 104a and the receiving coil 154a is larger than the coupling coefficient k 2r in the receiving coil 154a and a relay coil 104b. Then, the deviation amount G 1 to deviation amount G L is towards k 2r is larger than k 12. In other words, when changing from the deviation amount G is 0 to G L, and k 12, none of the k 2r there is a range larger than the other, the range is switched in deviation amount G 1.
なお、図4Bにおいて、ずれ量GLはずれ量の最大値(限度値)であり、本発明の所定のずれ量に対応している。ずれ量GLは、これ以上ずれ量が大きくなると、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104bへと好適に電力伝送を行うことができなくなる量であり、例えば実験的に求めて設定すればよい。
In FIG. 4B, the deviation amount GL is the maximum value (limit value) of the deviation amount, and corresponds to the predetermined deviation amount of the present invention. The deviation amount GL is an amount that makes it impossible to suitably transmit power from the power transmission coil 104a to the relay coil 104b when the deviation amount becomes larger than this. For example, the deviation amount GL may be determined experimentally.
以上説明したように、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合には、中継コイル104bによる中継なしで、送電コイル104aから受電コイル154aへの送電が行われる。一方、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からずれている場合には、送電コイル104aから送電される電力が、中継コイル104bを介して受電コイル154aに送電される。なお、以下では、中継コイル104bによる中継なしで、送電コイル104aから受電コイル154aへ行われる送電ルートを第1送電ルート、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104bを介して受電コイル154aへ行われる送電ルートを第2送電ルートと称する。
As described above, when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a, the relay coil 104b does not relay the power transmitting coil 104a to the power receiving coil 154a. Power transmission is performed. On the other hand, when the position of the center of the power receiving coil 154a is shifted from immediately above the position of the center of the power transmitting coil 104a, the power transmitted from the power transmitting coil 104a is transmitted to the power receiving coil 154a via the relay coil 104b. . In the following, a power transmission route that is performed from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a without relaying by the relay coil 104b is a first power transmission route, and a power transmission route that is performed from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a via the relay coil 104b. This is called the second power transmission route.
第1送電ルートと第2送電ルートのいずれによって送電コイル104aから受電コイル154aへの送電が行われるかは、単に送電コイル104aの直上から受電コイル154aがずれているか否かによって決定される。ただし、送電コイル104aの直上から見た受電コイル154aのずれ量Gが小さい場合には、中継コイル104bによる中継を受けずに電力の送電を行った方が送電効率が高くなる場合もある。これは、ずれ量が小さい場合、送電コイル104aと、中継コイル104bおよび受電コイル154aの両方とを共振させると、結合が高い中継コイル104bにおいてエネルギーが消費されてしまう可能性があるからである。
Whether the first power transmission route or the second power transmission route is used to transmit power from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a is determined simply by whether or not the power reception coil 154a is shifted from directly above the power transmission coil 104a. However, when the shift amount G of the power receiving coil 154a viewed from directly above the power transmitting coil 104a is small, the power transmission efficiency may be higher when power is transmitted without being relayed by the relay coil 104b. This is because when the amount of deviation is small, energy may be consumed in the relay coil 104b having high coupling when the power transmission coil 104a is resonated with both the relay coil 104b and the power reception coil 154a.
従って、ずれ量Gが所定のずれ量G1以下である場合には、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104bによる中継を経た送電が行われないようにすることが望ましい。これを実現するために、例えば、中継コイル104bを、その共振周波数が予め以下説明する値frとなるようなコイルによって構成する。これにより、送電コイル104aから受電コイル154aへの伝送インピーダンスを好適に制御することができるようになる。
Therefore, when the deviation amount G is a predetermined deviation amount G 1 or less, it is desirable to power transmission through the relay by the relay coil 104b from the power transmission coil 104a is not performed. To achieve this, for example, the relay coil 104b, the resonance frequency is configured by a coil such that the value f r described previously below. Thereby, the transmission impedance from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a can be suitably controlled.
<中継コイル104bの共振周波数算出方法>
以下では、好適な中継コイル104bの共振周波数frの算出方法について説明する。図5は、中継コイル104bの共振周波数を算出するための等価回路図である。図5には、中継コイル104bの共振周波数を算出するためのパラメータが示されている。図5に示すように、パラメータとして、送電コイル104aのインダクタンスL1、送電コイル104aに接続されるキャパシタの静電容量C1が使用される。また、パラメータとして、中継コイル104bのインダクタンスLr、中継コイル104bに接続されるキャパシタの静電容量Crが使用される。また、パラメータとして、受電コイル154aのインダクタンスL2、受電コイル154aに接続される負荷抵抗の抵抗値RL、受電コイル154aに接続されるキャパシタの静電容量C2が使用される。 <Resonance frequency calculation method ofrelay coil 104b>
Hereinafter, a method for calculating the resonance frequency f r ofsuitable relay coil 104b. FIG. 5 is an equivalent circuit diagram for calculating the resonance frequency of the relay coil 104b. FIG. 5 shows parameters for calculating the resonance frequency of the relay coil 104b. As shown in FIG. 5, the inductance L 1 of the power transmission coil 104a and the capacitance C 1 of the capacitor connected to the power transmission coil 104a are used as parameters. Further, as parameters, the inductance L r of the relay coil 104b and the capacitance C r of the capacitor connected to the relay coil 104b are used. As parameters, the inductance L 2 of the power receiving coil 154a, the resistance value R L of the load resistance connected to the power receiving coil 154a, and the capacitance C 2 of the capacitor connected to the power receiving coil 154a are used.
以下では、好適な中継コイル104bの共振周波数frの算出方法について説明する。図5は、中継コイル104bの共振周波数を算出するための等価回路図である。図5には、中継コイル104bの共振周波数を算出するためのパラメータが示されている。図5に示すように、パラメータとして、送電コイル104aのインダクタンスL1、送電コイル104aに接続されるキャパシタの静電容量C1が使用される。また、パラメータとして、中継コイル104bのインダクタンスLr、中継コイル104bに接続されるキャパシタの静電容量Crが使用される。また、パラメータとして、受電コイル154aのインダクタンスL2、受電コイル154aに接続される負荷抵抗の抵抗値RL、受電コイル154aに接続されるキャパシタの静電容量C2が使用される。 <Resonance frequency calculation method of
Hereinafter, a method for calculating the resonance frequency f r of
まず、図5に示す簡易等価回路を用いて、各コイル電流を算出する。ここで、コイルの銅損を考慮した送電効率(電力伝送効率)ηを以下の式(1)を用いて算出する。送電効率ηは、送受電システム10における電力伝送の効率を表すパラメータである。
First, each coil current is calculated using a simple equivalent circuit shown in FIG. Here, the power transmission efficiency (power transmission efficiency) η considering the copper loss of the coil is calculated using the following formula (1). The power transmission efficiency η is a parameter representing the efficiency of power transmission in the power transmission / reception system 10.
なお、式(1)において、I1は送電コイル104aのコイル電流、I2は受電コイル154aのコイル電流、Irは中継コイル104bのコイル電流である。また、式(1)において、r1は送電コイル104aのL1に直列の寄生抵抗、r2は受電コイル154aのL2に直列の寄生抵抗、rrは中継コイル104bのLrに直列の寄生抵抗である。
In the equation (1), I 1 is the coil current in the transmitting coil 104a, I 2 is the coil current of the power receiving coil 154a, the I r is the coil current of the relay coil 104b. In Equation (1), r 1 is a parasitic resistance in series with L 1 of the power transmission coil 104a, r 2 is a parasitic resistance in series with L 2 of the power receiving coil 154a, and r r is in series with L r of the relay coil 104b. Parasitic resistance.
上記した式(1)は中継コイル104bの共振周波数frを含む関数である。送電効率ηが最大となる中継コイル104bの最適共振周波数fr
idealは、以下の式(2)のように求められる。ただし、式(2)は駆動周波数fと受信側の共振周波数とが等しいという条件で導出されたものである。
Above formula (1) is a function including a resonant frequency f r of the relay coil 104b. The optimum resonance frequency f r ideal of the relay coil 104b that maximizes the power transmission efficiency η is obtained as in the following equation (2). However, Expression (2) is derived under the condition that the driving frequency f is equal to the resonance frequency on the receiving side.
ここで、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとは同一平面上に配置されている。また送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとの距離は送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離、および受電コイル154aと中継コイル104bとの距離より大きい(図1参照)。これらのことから、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数k1rは、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数k12、および受電コイル154aと中継コイル104bとの結合係数k2rよりも大きい。このため、式(2)のルート内の波括弧において、前2項は3項目に比べて非常に小さくなり、近似的には無視できる。このため、式(2)は以下の式(3)に近似することができる。
Here, the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b are arranged on the same plane. The distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b is larger than the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a and the distance between the power reception coil 154a and the relay coil 104b (see FIG. 1). Therefore, the coupling coefficient k 1r between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b is larger than the coupling coefficient k 12 between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a and the coupling coefficient k 2r between the power reception coil 154a and the relay coil 104b. large. For this reason, in the curly brackets in the route of Expression (2), the previous two terms are much smaller than the three items, and can be ignored in an approximate manner. For this reason, Formula (2) can be approximated to the following Formula (3).
以上のように送電効率ηが最大となる中継コイル104bの最適共振周波数fr
idealを算出することができる。しかしながら、車輌150の駐車位置によって、換言すれば送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からの受電コイル154aの中心の位置のずれ量Gによって、結合係数k12およびk2rは変化する。また、車輌に積載された荷物の重量等によって、車輌の高さが変化し、その影響で送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離が変化し、それによって結合係数が変化する場合もある。このような結合係数の変化に対応するため、中継コイル104bの共振周波数frは1つの最適な値である共振周波数fr
idealに設定するのではなく、以下の式(4)の範囲に設定することが望ましい。
As described above, the optimum resonance frequency f r ideal of the relay coil 104b that maximizes the power transmission efficiency η can be calculated. However, the parking position of the vehicle 150, the deviation amount G of the position of the center of the power receiving coil 154a from directly above the position of the center of the power transmission coil 104a in other words, the coupling coefficient k 12 and k 2r changes. In addition, the height of the vehicle may change depending on the weight of the load loaded on the vehicle, and the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a may change due to the change, and the coupling coefficient may change accordingly. To respond to such changes in the coupling coefficient, set the range of the resonance frequency f r of the relay coil 104b is not set to the resonance frequency f r ideal is one optimum value, the following equation (4) It is desirable to do.
ここで、k12
maxは、k12の最大値であり、図4Bに示すように、ずれ量が最小(0)である場合におけるk12の値である。また、k2r
minは、図4Bに示すようなずれ量が最小(0)から最大(ずれ量GL)の範囲内における最小値である。
Here, k 12 max is the maximum value of k 12, as shown in FIG. 4B, the values of k 12 when shift amount is minimum (0). Further, k 2r min is a minimum value within the range of the shift amount as shown in FIG. 4B from the minimum (0) to the maximum (shift amount G L ).
また、式(4)において、fminは送電コイル104aの駆動周波数の最小値であり、fmaxは送電コイル104aの駆動周波数の最大値である。このようなパラメータを用いることにより、数式(4)に示す範囲内に中継コイル104bの好適な共振周波数が確実に含まれる。
Moreover, in Formula (4), fmin is the minimum value of the drive frequency of the power transmission coil 104a, and fmax is the maximum value of the drive frequency of the power transmission coil 104a. By using such a parameter, a suitable resonance frequency of the relay coil 104b is surely included in the range shown in Expression (4).
中継コイル104bの共振周波数をこのような範囲内とすることにより、以下のような選択的な送電が制御の必要なく行われるようになる。すなわち、送電コイル104aの中心の位置と受電コイル154aの中心の位置とのずれ量GがG1以下である場合には、図4Bに示すように、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの間の結合係数であるk12の方が、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104bとの間の結合係数であるk2rよりも大きいため、中継コイル104bを中継せずに、送電コイル104aから受電コイル154aへと直接送電される。一方、ずれ量GがG1より大きい場合には、図4Bに示すように、k12よりk2rの方が大きくなるので、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104bを中継した受電コイル154aへ送電される。
By setting the resonance frequency of the relay coil 104b within such a range, the following selective power transmission can be performed without the need for control. That is, when the deviation amount G of the position of the center position and the receiving coil 154a of the center of the power transmission coil 104a is G 1 or less, as shown in Figure 4B, between the power transmission coil 104a and the receiving coil 154a towards the coupling coefficient is a k 12 is larger than k 2r is the coupling coefficient between the power receiving coil 154a and a relay coil 104b, without relaying the relay coil 104b, and a power transmission coil 104a to the power receiving coil 154a Direct power transmission. On the other hand, when the deviation amount G is larger than G 1, as shown in FIG. 4B, since towards k 2r from k 12 becomes larger, and the power transmission from the power transmission coil 104a to the power receiving coil 154a that relayed the relay coil 104b .
図6は、第1の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10の効果について説明するための図である。図6では、中継コイル104bがある場合とない場合の送電効率を、ずれ量Gの関数として示している。図6において、横軸はずれ量、縦軸は送電効率をそれぞれ示している。また、図6において、例えば、ずれ量「X=50mm,Y=50mm」はずれ量G1の一例であり、ずれ量「X=100mm,Y=100mm」はずれ量GLの一例である。なお、X方向とは送受電システム10における前後方向を、Y方向は左右方向を、それぞれ意味している。
FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the effect of the power transmission and reception system 10 according to the first embodiment. In FIG. 6, the power transmission efficiency with and without the relay coil 104b is shown as a function of the deviation amount G. In FIG. 6, the horizontal axis indicates the amount of deviation, and the vertical axis indicates the power transmission efficiency. In FIG. 6, for example, the displacement amount “X = 50 mm, Y = 50 mm” is an example of the displacement amount G 1 , and the displacement amount “X = 100 mm, Y = 100 mm” is an example of the displacement amount GL . The X direction means the front-rear direction in the power transmission / reception system 10, and the Y direction means the left-right direction.
図6に示すように、ずれ量G1以下では中継コイル104bがある場合とそうでない場合との送電効率はほぼ同じである。これは、上記説明したように、中継コイル104bがある場合でも、ずれ量G1以下では中継コイル104bによる中継がない送電ルート(第1送電ルート)を介した送電が行われるからである。
As shown in FIG. 6, in the following shift amount G 1 power transmission efficiency between otherwise and if there is a relay coil 104b are substantially the same. This is because, as described above, even if there is a relay coil 104b, the following deviation amount G 1 because transmission through the power transmission route is no relay by the relay coil 104b (first transmission route) is carried out.
一方、ずれ量がG1より大きい場合、中継コイル104bがない場合よりある場合の方が送電効率が高くなっている。これは、上記説明したように、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104bを中継して送電コイル104aに送電される第2送電ルートを介した送電の方が第1送電ルートよりも伝送インピーダンスが小さくなり、第2送電ルートによる送電が行われるので、効率の低下を抑えることができるからである。
On the other hand, when the deviation amount is greater than G 1, who when there than without relay coil 104b is power transmission efficiency is high. As described above, the transmission impedance of the power transmission via the second power transmission route relayed from the power transmission coil 104a to the power transmission coil 104a via the relay coil 104b is smaller than that of the first power transmission route. This is because power transmission through the second power transmission route is performed, so that a decrease in efficiency can be suppressed.
このように、第1の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10によれば、送電コイル104aの中心の位置と受電コイル154aの中心の位置とのずれ量Gが0からGL(所定のずれ量)の間であるとき、どのようなずれ量であっても、送電効率を向上させることができるようになる。
As described above, according to the power transmission / reception system 10 according to the first embodiment, the shift amount G between the center position of the power transmission coil 104a and the center position of the power reception coil 154a is 0 to G L (predetermined shift amount). ), The power transmission efficiency can be improved regardless of the amount of deviation.
以上説明したように、本発明の第1の実施の形態において、送電装置は、受電装置の受電コイルに対して、磁気共鳴も含めた電磁力を利用する送電を行う送電コイルと、送電コイルから受電コイルへの送電を中継する中継コイルと、を有する。送電装置には、第1の結合係数が第2の結合係数より大きくなるずれ量の範囲と、第2の結合係数が第1の結合係数より大きくなるずれ量の範囲と、の両方が存在する。但し、送電コイルの中心位置から受電コイルの中心位置までの距離をずれ量とし、送電コイルと受電コイルとの結合係数を第1の結合係数とし、受電コイルと第3のコイルとの結合係数を第2の結合係数とする。中継コイルの共振周波数は、送電コイルの駆動周波数の最小値よりも大きい。
As described above, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the power transmission device includes a power transmission coil that performs power transmission using electromagnetic force including magnetic resonance, and a power transmission coil. A relay coil that relays power transmission to the power receiving coil. The power transmission device has both a range of deviation amounts in which the first coupling coefficient is greater than the second coupling coefficient and a range of deviation amounts in which the second coupling coefficient is greater than the first coupling coefficient. . However, the distance from the center position of the power transmission coil to the center position of the power reception coil is defined as a deviation amount, the coupling coefficient between the power transmission coil and the power reception coil is defined as the first coupling coefficient, and the coupling coefficient between the power reception coil and the third coil is defined as Let it be the second coupling coefficient. The resonance frequency of the relay coil is larger than the minimum value of the driving frequency of the power transmission coil.
このような構成により、本発明の第1の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10において、送電コイル104aの中心の位置と受電コイル154aの中心の位置とのずれ量Gが0からGL(所定のずれ量)であるとき、どのようなずれ量であっても、送電効率を向上させることができる。
With such a configuration, in the power transmission / reception system 10 according to the first exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the shift amount G between the center position of the power transmission coil 104a and the center position of the power reception coil 154a is 0 to GL (predetermined). Power transmission efficiency can be improved with any amount of deviation.
なお、上述した第1の実施の形態において、送電コイル104aより中継コイル104bの方が大きく、中継コイル104bを送電コイル104aの外側に配置するように説明したが、送電コイル104aと中継コイル104bの大きさについては本発明では特に限定しない。送電コイル104aの大きさを従来の送受電システムにおける送電コイルの大きさと同じ大きさとし、その外側により大きい中継コイル104bを配置してもよいし、中継コイル104bの大きさを従来の送電コイルの大きさと同じ大きさとし、その内側の送電コイル104aの大きさを従来の送電コイルより小さくしてもよい。前者の場合には、ずれ量Gが比較的大きい場合にも中継コイル104bによる中継が可能となる。後者の場合には、従来と同様の筐体にコイルを収めることができるので、製作コストを抑えることができる。
In the first embodiment described above, the relay coil 104b is larger than the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b is disposed outside the power transmission coil 104a. However, the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b The size is not particularly limited in the present invention. The size of the power transmission coil 104a may be the same as the size of the power transmission coil in the conventional power transmission and reception system, and a larger relay coil 104b may be disposed outside the power transmission coil 104a. And the size of the power transmission coil 104a inside thereof may be smaller than that of the conventional power transmission coil. In the former case, relaying by the relay coil 104b is possible even when the shift amount G is relatively large. In the latter case, since the coil can be housed in the same housing as the conventional case, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
また、上述した第1の実施の形態において、中継コイル104bの共振周波数frは式(4)の範囲内に設定するとしたが、例えば中継コイル104bの共振周波数を式(4)の範囲内で可変としてもよい。この場合、中継コイル104bの共振周波数を制御するための例えば共振周波数制御部をさらに設け、ずれ量G等に基づいて中継コイル104bの共振周波数を好適に制御するようにすればよい。
In the first embodiment described above, the resonance frequency f r of the relay coil 104b is set to be in the range of formula (4), for example, the resonant frequency of the relay coil 104b within the scope of formula (4) It may be variable. In this case, for example, a resonance frequency control unit for controlling the resonance frequency of the relay coil 104b may be further provided so that the resonance frequency of the relay coil 104b is suitably controlled based on the deviation amount G or the like.
[第2の実施の形態]
以下では、本発明の第2の実施の形態について説明する。図7は、本発明の第2の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10’の構成を示す図である。図7に示すように、本発明の第2の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10’は、送電コイル104aの内側に中継コイル104b’が配置されている点を除いて、上記説明した第1の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10と同様である。 [Second Embodiment]
Below, the 2nd Embodiment of this invention is described. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a configuration of a power transmission /reception system 10 ′ according to the second embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 7, in the power transmission / reception system 10 ′ according to the second embodiment of the present invention, the first described above except that the relay coil 104b ′ is arranged inside the power transmission coil 104a. This is the same as the power transmission / reception system 10 according to the embodiment.
以下では、本発明の第2の実施の形態について説明する。図7は、本発明の第2の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10’の構成を示す図である。図7に示すように、本発明の第2の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10’は、送電コイル104aの内側に中継コイル104b’が配置されている点を除いて、上記説明した第1の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10と同様である。 [Second Embodiment]
Below, the 2nd Embodiment of this invention is described. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a configuration of a power transmission /
図8Aおよび図8Bは、送電コイル104aと、受電コイル154aと、中継コイル104b’の位置関係を示す図である。図8Aは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104b’を真横から見た図である。一方、図8Bは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104b’を真上から見た図である。図8Aおよび図8Bに示すように、送電コイル104aの内側に、送電コイル104aよりも径が小さい中継コイル104b’が配置されている。
8A and 8B are diagrams showing the positional relationship among the power transmission coil 104a, the power reception coil 154a, and the relay coil 104b '. FIG. 8A is a view of the power reception coil 154a, the power transmission coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b 'seen from the side when the center position of the power reception coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmission coil 104a. On the other hand, FIG. 8B is a diagram in which the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b ′ are viewed from directly above when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. It is. As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, a relay coil 104b 'having a smaller diameter than the power transmission coil 104a is disposed inside the power transmission coil 104a.
図8Aおよび図8Bに例示するように、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置のほぼ直上に位置している。換言すれば、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離よりも、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104b’との距離の方が近い。このような場合には、送電コイル104aから直接受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行うよりも、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104b’を中継して受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行う方が送電効率を向上させることができる。
8A and 8B, the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is located almost immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. In other words, the distance between the power receiving coil 154a and the relay coil 104b 'is shorter than the distance between the power transmitting coil 104a and the power receiving coil 154a. In such a case, the power transmission efficiency is improved by relaying the relay coil 104b ′ from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a rather than performing power transmission directly from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a. be able to.
一方、図9Aおよび図9Bは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からずれている場合の位置関係を示している。図9Aは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からずれ量G’だけずれた位置にある場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104b’を真横から見た図である。一方、図9Bは、受電コイル154aの中心の位置が送電コイル104aの中心の位置の直上からずれ量G’だけずれた位置にある場合の受電コイル154a、送電コイル104a、中継コイル104b’を真上から見た図である。
On the other hand, FIG. 9A and FIG. 9B show the positional relationship when the center position of the power receiving coil 154a is shifted from immediately above the center position of the power transmitting coil 104a. FIG. 9A shows the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b ′ viewed from the side when the position of the center of the power receiving coil 154a is shifted by a shift amount G ′ from directly above the position of the center of the power transmitting coil 104a. It is a figure. On the other hand, FIG. 9B shows that the power receiving coil 154a, the power transmitting coil 104a, and the relay coil 104b ′ are true when the position of the center of the power receiving coil 154a is shifted by a shift amount G ′ from directly above the position of the center of the power transmitting coil 104a. It is the figure seen from the top.
図9Aおよび図9Bに例示するように、中継コイル104b’と受電コイル154aとの距離よりも、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離の方が近い。このような場合には、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104b’を中継して受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行う場合と、送電コイル104aから直接受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行う場合との送電効率がほぼ同じ、あるいは中継コイル104b’を中継しない方が送電効率を向上させることができる。
9A and 9B, the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a is closer than the distance between the relay coil 104b 'and the power reception coil 154a. In such a case, the transmission efficiency is almost the same when the power transmission coil 104a relays the relay coil 104b ′ to transmit power to the power reception coil 154a and when power transmission is performed directly from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a. The power transmission efficiency can be improved by repeating the same or no relay coil 104b ′.
図10は、第2の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10’における、結合係数k1r、k12、およびk2rの大きさと、送電コイル104aから見た受電コイル154aのずれ量G’に応じた結合係数の変化を示す図である。上述したように、結合係数はコイル間の距離に応じて変化し、一般にコイル間の距離が遠くなるほど結合係数は小さくなる。図10において、送電コイル104aおよび中継コイル104b’との距離は不変であるため、送電コイル104aおよび中継コイル104b’との結合係数k1rはずれ量G’によって大きくは変化しない。一方、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離、および中継コイル104b’と受電コイル154aとの距離は、ずれ量G’に応じて変化する。図10に示す例では、ずれ量G1’までは送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの結合係数k12の方が、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104b’との結合係数k2rよりも小さくなっている。なお、図10に示すずれ量G1’とは、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離と、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104b’とが等しくなるずれ量である。なお、図10において、ずれ量GL’はずれ量の最大値(限度値)であり、本発明の所定のずれ量に対応している。
FIG. 10 shows the magnitudes of the coupling coefficients k 1r , k 12 , and k 2r and the shift amount G ′ of the power receiving coil 154a viewed from the power transmitting coil 104a in the power transmitting / receiving system 10 ′ according to the second embodiment. It is a figure which shows the change of the coupling coefficient. As described above, the coupling coefficient changes in accordance with the distance between the coils. Generally, the coupling coefficient decreases as the distance between the coils increases. In FIG. 10, since the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b ′ is not changed, the coupling coefficient k 1r between the power transmission coil 104a and the relay coil 104b ′ does not change greatly depending on the shift amount G ′. On the other hand, the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a and the distance between the relay coil 104b ′ and the power reception coil 154a vary according to the deviation amount G ′. In the example shown in FIG. 10, the deviation amount G 1 'until towards the coupling coefficient k 12 of the power transmission coil 104a and the receiving coil 154a is a power receiving coil 154a relay coil 104b' is smaller than the coupling coefficient k 2r and Yes. The shift amount G 1 ′ shown in FIG. 10 is a shift amount at which the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a and the power reception coil 154a and the relay coil 104b ′ are equal. In FIG. 10, the deviation amount G L ′ is the maximum value (limit value) of the deviation amount and corresponds to the predetermined deviation amount of the present invention.
以上説明したように、本発明の第2の実施の形態において、中継コイル104b’は、送電コイル104aより内側に配置される。このような構成により、送電コイル104aの中心の位置から受電コイル154aの中心の位置までのずれ量G’がずれ量G1’より小さい場合には、送電コイル104aと受電コイル154aとの距離よりも、受電コイル154aと中継コイル104b’との距離の方が近くなる。この場合、送電コイル104aから直接受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行うよりも、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104b’を中継して受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行う方が送電効率を向上させることができる。
As described above, in the second embodiment of the present invention, the relay coil 104b ′ is disposed inside the power transmission coil 104a. With such a configuration, when the shift amount G ′ from the center position of the power transmission coil 104a to the center position of the power reception coil 154a is smaller than the shift amount G 1 ′, the distance between the power transmission coil 104a and the power reception coil 154a. However, the distance between the power receiving coil 154a and the relay coil 104b ′ is closer. In this case, the power transmission efficiency can be improved by relaying the relay coil 104b ′ from the power transmission coil 104a and performing power transmission to the power reception coil 154a rather than performing power transmission directly from the power transmission coil 104a to the power reception coil 154a.
また、ずれ量G’がG1’より大きい場合には、送電コイル104aから中継コイル104b’を中継して受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行う場合と、送電コイル104aから直接受電コイル154aに電力伝送を行う場合との送電効率がほぼ同じ、あるいは中継コイル104b’を中継しない方が送電効率を向上させることができる。
When the deviation G ′ is larger than G 1 ′, power is transmitted from the power transmission coil 104a to the power receiving coil 154a through the relay coil 104b ′, and power is transmitted directly from the power transmission coil 104a to the power receiving coil 154a. The power transmission efficiency can be improved if the power transmission efficiency is substantially the same as in the case of performing the above or if the relay coil 104b ′ is not relayed.
このように、第2の実施の形態に係る送受電システム10’によれば、ずれ量G’が0から所定のずれ量GL’までの間であるとき、どのようなずれ量であっても、送電効率を向上させることができるようになる。
Thus, according to the power transmission / reception system 10 ′ according to the second embodiment, when the deviation amount G ′ is between 0 and the predetermined deviation amount G L ′, what is the deviation amount? Even power transmission efficiency can be improved.
