To provide a charging apparatus which can be manufactured at low cost and corresponds to both types apparatus of the stationary charging apparatus (manual system) which can be widely spread and the stationary charging apparatus (automatic system) which assures highly efficient charging work to realize the charging work from any type of apparatus.
An onboard charging apparatus corresponds to a first stationary charging apparatus 1 for intentionally coupling a first power transmitting coupler 11 to a power receiving coupler, and a second stationary charging apparatus 2 for automatically coupling the first power receiving coupler 12, which can be coupled with the first power transmitting coupler 11 and a second power transmitting coupler 19 to the power receiving coupler, and provides the second power receiving coupler 20 which may be coupled with the second power transmitting coupler 19. Moreover, a charging circuit is also provided for charging a battery B with the charging power source supplied to the power transmitting side coupling part, when the first and second power receiving couplers 12, 20 are coupled with the corresponding power transmitting couplers, respectively.
