## Abstract

Provided is a wireless power-supplying system equipped with a power-supplying coil disposed on the ground side, and a power-receiving coil that is mounted on a movable body and wirelessly receives power supplied from the power-supplying coil. In addition, the wireless power-supplying system is provided with a recovery coil in the vicinity of a space between the power-supplying coil and the power-receiving coil such that a wound face thereof intersects leakage flux occurring when the power is supplied from the power-supplying coil to the power-receiving coil.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A wireless power-supplying system comprising:
a power-supplying coil disposed on a ground side;
a power-receiving coil mounted on a movable body and configured to wirelessly receive power supplied from the power-supplying coil;
a plurality of recovery coils provided in the vicinity of a space between the power-supplying coil and the power-receiving coil such that at least one wound face thereof intersects leakage flux occurring when power is supplied from the power-supplying coil to the power-receiving coil; and
a moving mechanism for moving the plurality of the recovery coils,
wherein
the plurality of the recovery coils are provided in a height direction of the space,
an angle of a wound face varies according to a mounting height, and
at least one of the plurality of the recovery coils is connected to at least one load,
wherein:
the moving mechanism includes a support supporting the plurality of recovery coils and configured to be extendable and contractible;
the support is configured such that a plurality of posts that correspond to the plurality of recovery coils and air actuators provided between these posts are disposed and formed in a straight line shape; and
the support is configured to increase and reduce an interval between the recovery coils by the extension and contraction of these posts by actuating each of the air actuators.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The wireless power-supplying system according to claim 1 wherein a moving mechanism displaces the plurality of the recovery coils from a state in which the recovery coils lie above or on the ground or are retracted in the ground to a state in which the recovery coils stand up in the vicinity of the space.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The wireless power-supplying system according to claim 2, wherein:
the support is configured to stop the actuators of the support by touching a bottom portion of the movable body by a leading end of the support.

### Claim 4

A leakage flux recovery unit comprising:
a power-supplying coil disposed on a ground side;
a power-receiving coil mounted on a movable body and configured to wirelessly receive power supplied from the power-supplying coil;
a plurality of recovery coils provided in the vicinity of a space between the power-supplying coil and the power-receiving coil such that a wound face thereof intersects leakage flux occurring when the power is supplied from the power-supplying coil to the power-receiving coil; and
a moving mechanism for moving the plurality of the recovery coils,
wherein
the plurality of the recovery coils are provided in a height direction of the space,
an angle of the wound face varies according to a mounting height, and
the at least one of the plurality of the recovery coils is connected to at least one load,
wherein:
the moving mechanism includes a support supporting the plurality of recovery coils and configured to be extendable and contractible;
the support is configured such that a plurality of posts that correspond to the plurality of recovery coils and air actuators provided between these posts are disposed and formed in a straight line shape; and
the support is configured to increase and reduce an interval between the recovery coils by the extension and contraction of these posts by actuating each of the air actuators.
