Problems solved by technology

However, on the other hand, the power feeding device involves a disadvantage that an object other than the device to be charged (for example, a foreign object such as a ten-dollar coin (foreign object metal)) is easily placed on the charging tray
When such foreign metal is placed on the charging tray, there is a possibility that the foreign metal is heated

[0036] [Overall structure]

[0037] figure 1 A schematic architecture of a power feeding system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The power feeding system includes a charging pad 1 (power feeding device) and a mobile phone 2 (electronic device). The power feeding system is a so-called non-contact type power feeding sy...

example 1

[0075] Figure 7A and 7B are schematic diagrams illustrating the foreign metal detection operation according to Modified Example 1, respectively. The foreign metal detection operation of Modification Example 1 is such that, similar to the foreign metal detection operation of the above-described embodiment, by comparing the amount of change of a predetermined parameter with a predetermined threshold (by performing a comparison with respect to a magnitude relationship), the presence of foreign metal is detected. exists or does not exist. However, in Modified Example 1, even when the surface of the foreign metal X is oxidized, or even when the plating process is performed on the surface of the foreign metal X, detection can be accurately performed.

[0076] Specifically, in Modification Example 1, the detection circuit 21A has a threshold A2 (second threshold) different from the threshold A1 in addition to the threshold A1 (in this case smaller than the threshold A1 ). Thresho...

example 3

[0096] Figure 10 An example of a planar structure of an electrode pattern according to Modification 3 of the embodiment is shown. In the above-described embodiment, the case where the positive electrode 14A and the negative electrode 14B each have a dot-like shape (needle-like shape as a whole) in plan view is exemplified as an electrode pattern for detecting the foreign metal X. However, the present disclosure is by no means limited to such a dot-like shape, so the electrode pattern may take a linear shape. In this case, it is only necessary that a plurality of positive electrodes 18A1 and a plurality of negative electrodes 18B1 (groups of positive electrodes 18A1 and negative electrodes 18B1 ) are alternately arranged away from each other so as to extend in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction in plan view. However, similarly to the case of the above-described embodiment, it is preferable to provide each of the positive electrode 18A1 and the negative elect...

Abstract

Disclosed herein is an electronic apparatus, including an electric power receiving portion receiving an electric power from a power feeding apparatus by using a magnetic field, and a detecting portion detecting presence or absence of a foreign object between said power feeding apparatus and said detecting portion.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an electronic device, a power feeding method, and a power feeding system that can supply electric power in, for example, a contactless manner. Background technique [0002] In recent years, by using electromagnetic induction, magnetic resonance, etc., power feeding devices (such as non-contact power feeding devices or wireless power feeding device) has received attention. As a result, charging can be started not by plugging (connecting) a connector of a power supply device such as an AC (Alternating Current) adapter to the device, but by placing the device on a tray-type power feeding device (charging tray). That is, terminal connection between the CE equipment and the power feeding device becomes unnecessary. [0003] In the power feeding device, since charging is started by placing the CE device on the charging tray as described above, it is possible to reduce the burden imposed on the user. On the other hand, how...
