Zusammenfassung: | A foreign material detection apparatus has, between a transmitter coil of a power transmitting apparatus and a receiver coil of a power receiving apparatus between which power is transmitted contactlessly, a plurality of first detection coils arranged to be inductively couplable with each other and each constituting a resonant circuit having a first resonant frequency together with a first capacitor, a plurality of second detection coils arranged to be inductively couplable with each other and each constituting a resonant circuit having a second resonant frequency together with a second capacitor, a power supply circuit that supplies, to each detection coil, AC power having a frequency at which the detection coil resonates, and a detection circuit that detects foreign material contamination between the transmitter coil and the receiver coil according to a voltage of the AC power transmitted via the detection coils. |
