FEEDING APPARATUS, CHARGING APPARATUS, AND FEEDING METHOD

摘要

A feeding apparatus includes a feeding unit configured to feed power in a non-contact manner to the charging apparatus mounted on a vehicle and a feeding control unit that receives vehicle detection information from a sensor configured to transmit vehicle detection information when a vehicle is detected. The apparatus executes control so that the feeding unit provided in the feeding apparatus feeds first power determined for each feeding apparatus so as to specify the feeding apparatus, transmits charging start information indicating a start of charging when feeding unit specifying information containing information to indicate the power level at which power is received from the feeding unit is received from the charging apparatus, and the received power level is determined to be within a specific power range, and executes control so that the feeding unit feeds second power in order to charge a battery unit of the charging apparatus.

1. A feeding apparatus which feeds power in a non-contact manner to a battery mounted on a vehicle, the feeding apparatus comprising:
a feeding unit configured to output first power and second power; a feeding control unit configured to control the feeding unit; and a radio communication unit configured to perform radio communication, wherein the feeding control unit makes the feeding unit output the first power of a magnitude corresponding to the feeding unit in order to specify the feeding unit, acquires, through the radio communication unit, feeding unit specifying information transmitted by the vehicle which has received the first power, determines whether or not the magnitude of the power indicated by the feeding unit specifying information is within a specific power range stored in advance, and transmits to the vehicle charging start information to start charging when determining that the magnitude is within the specific power range, and controls the feeding unit specified by the feeding unit specifying information so that it outputs the second power.
