Abstract
A power reception device of a non-contact power feeding device has: a resonant circuit having a reception coil configured to receive electric power from a power transmission device and a resonant capacitor connected in series with the reception coil; a first rectifier circuit configured to rectify electric power received via the resonant circuit; a smoothing capacitor connected to the first rectifier circuit and configured to smooth a voltage outputted from the first rectifier circuit; a sub-coil arranged to be capable of being electromagnetically coupled to the reception coil; and a second rectifier circuit connected between the sub-coil and the smoothing capacitor, and configured to output electric power according to a voltage generated in the sub-coil to the smoothing capacitor in response to a voltage obtained by rectifying a voltage generated in the sub-coil being higher than a voltage between both terminals of the smoothing capacitor.
