Patent attributes
A wireless power transmission device includes a detection coil and a capacitor that configure a resonance circuit. An oscillation circuit generates high-frequency current corresponding to a detection frequency for performing presence detection of an electric appliance and metal. A presence detection circuit performs presence detection of the electric appliance and the metal based on an output voltage obtained by exciting the detection coil with the high-frequency current having the detection frequency. A detection condition changing circuit performs an initial value setting mode that changes a detection condition of the presence detection circuit in accordance with a resonance characteristic. The detection condition changing circuit includes a detection frequency changing circuit that changes the detection frequency in accordance with the resonance characteristic.
