Abstract
A contactless power supply coil unit includes coils wound around a center axis and a holder that holds the coils. The coils are spirally wound in plan view and overlap in an axial direction and respectively define layers stacked in the axial direction. The coils defining adjacent layers are connected in series to each other. The holder includes a core extending in the axial direction. The core includes a winding portions disposed along the axial direction. The coils are respectively wound around the winding portions. The outer diameters of the winding portions each change monotonically along the axial direction.
