Abstract
A non-contact charging device is provided with: a power receiving device which has at least a power receiving coil which receives electrical power, in a non-contact manner, from a power transmitting coil by means of a magnetic connection; a battery which is charged by the electrical power; a charge-state detection means, which detects the charge-state of the battery; a position detection means which detects the position of the power transmitting coil; and a charge time calculation means, which calculates a first charge time for the battery according to the charge-state as detected by the charge-state detection means and a first position of the power transmitting coil as detected by the position detection means.
Claims13
A non-contact charging device, comprising:
- a power receiving device including a power receiving coil that receives power from a power transmitting coil in a non-contact manner through at least magnetic coupling;
- a battery that is charged with the power;
- state-of-charge detection means for detecting a state of charge of the battery;
- position detection means for detecting a position of the power transmitting coil;
- and
- charge-time calculation means for calculating a first charge time of the battery in accordance with the state of charge detected by the state-of-charge detection means and a first position of the power transmitting coil detected by the position detection means.
