AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Burying power supply coils and resonant capacitors in the road surface for non-contact power transmission to moving vehicles leads to decreased power transmission efficiency and vulnerability to external forces like vertical loads and high temperatures, affecting long-term usability.

Method used

The power supply device is embedded in the travel path with a protective case for the resonant capacitor that is shorter transverse to the travel path, filled with a filler material, and positioned near the road surface, using materials like fiber-reinforced cement mortar to distribute vertical loads and dissipate heat.

Benefits of technology

This configuration minimizes the impact of external forces on the resonant capacitor, ensuring long-term power transmission efficiency and usability on various road types, including busy public roads and expressways.

Abstract

To bury, near a road surface of a travel route, a power supply device supplying power in a non-contact manner to a power receiving device provided in a movable body moving on the travel route, while ensuring long-term commonality.SOLUTION: A burying structure for a power supply device buries, in a travel route, a power supply device supplying power in a non-contact manner to a power receiving device provided in a movable body moving on the travel route. The power supply device has a protective case that stores a resonance capacitor connected in series to a power supply coil, and the protective case is formed to have a length in a transverse direction of the travel route shorter than a coil case that stores the power supply coil, the protective case being buried in the travel route.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
