Inductiive power supply system

Abstract

A power supplying device (20) is provided for providing electrical power to a power receiving device (30), the power supplying device (20) comprising two plates (22), two electrode structures (23, 43, 81, 82) being arranged to be coupled to an AC power source (41) and at least one power transmitter (21). Each electrode structure (23, 43, 81, 82) is attached to one of said two plates (22). The power transmitter (21) is situated in between the two plates (22) and comprises an electrically conductive coil (28) and at least two electrical contacts (25) coupled to the electrically conductive coil (28). The plates (22) and the power transmitter (21) are arranged such that the power transmitter (21) is movable in a direction parallel to the surfaces of the plates (22) with the electrical contacts (25) in contact with the respective two electrode structures (23, 43, 81, 82) for obtaining power from the AC power source (41).
