    Abstract: A coil unit includes a coil and a core member. The coil receives AC electric power transmitted in a contactless manner from an electric power transmission apparatus. The core member is formed of a directional magnetic material in sheet form. The core member is arranged on a rearward side of the coil when seen from the electric power transmission apparatus when the electric power transmission apparatus and the coil face each other. An outer shape of each of the coil and the core member is a rectangular annular shape. An orientation direction of the core member and a direction along a winding direction of the coil are orthogonal to each other in straight line portions that face each other of the coil and the core member.

    Abstract: A contactless electric power transmission system includes an electric power reception device and a control device. The electric power reception device receives electric power transmitted in a contactless manner between the electric power reception device and an electric power transmission device. The control device sets, in a coupling zone in which a coupling degree between a primary side coil of the electric power transmission device and a secondary side coil of the electric power reception device is equal to or more than a predetermined degree, a communication zone in which the coupling degree is relatively small, and an electric power transmission zone in which the coupling degree is relatively large. The control device transmits information relating to electric power transmission in the electric power transmission zone from the electric power reception device to the electric power transmission device by communication between the electric power transmission device and the electric power reception device when the secondary side coil is present in a foremost communication zone of the coupling zone.

    Abstract: A coil includes: a wound conducting wire; and a terminal structure formed on an end of the conducting wire. The conducting wire is formed by bundling and twisting a plurality of strands. The strands are arranged longitudinally along a central axis of the coil. A method for manufacturing the coil includes: causing the end to pass through an internal space; then inserting a partition plate into a sleeve in a longitudinal direction so as to push the strands apart and arranging the strands in a first region and a second region; and then pinching the sleeve in a lateral direction and crushing the sleeve.
