A power supply device, comprising:
- a power transmission coil configured to supply power in a non-contact manner from outside the body via a coil in an intracorporeal implant-type medical appliance configured to be injected with a drug solution from outside the body;
- a support body configured to support the power transmission coil;
- and
- an adhesive section formed on the support body, on a side of the support body that faces a body surface of a living subject, wherein
- the support body has a hole through which an injection needle for injecting the drug solution can be inserted,
- the power transmission coil is disposed so as to surround the hole,
- the power transmission coil is provided with a first connector and a second connector between conductors of the power transmission coil, the first connector and the second connector being configured to be attached to and detached from each other,
- the first connector and the second connector are connected to each other such that the power transmission coil is formed into a ring shape as a whole, and
- the first connector and the second connector are separated from each other such that a state of being in the ring shape of the power transmission coil is released.
