1. A power transmitting and receiving system comprising:
a power transmission device; and
a power receiving device including a power receiving coil,
the power transmission device comprising:
power transmission coils arranged in a line such that each principal surface of the power transmission coils is in parallel to a surface of the power transmission device, the power transmission coils transmitting AC power wirelessly to the power receiving coil of the power receiving device;
a power transmission circuit that is connected to the power transmission coils and supplies the AC power to the power transmission coils; and
control circuitry operative to:
switch an electrical connection state between the power transmission circuit and each of the power transmission coils,
detect a relative position between the power receiving coil and each of the power transmission coils,
select two or more power transmission coils adjacent to each other from the power transmission coils based on the detected relative position, and
cause the power transmission circuit to supply the AC power to the selected two or more power transmission coils,
wherein, in an array direction of the power transmission coils, a width Dwt of each of the power transmission coils is shorter than a width Dwr of the power receiving coil, the array direction being an extending direction of the line in which the power transmission coils are arranged,
wherein, in a direction perpendicular to the array direction in a plane of the surface of the power transmission device, a width Dlt of each of the power transmission coils is equal to or longer than a width Dlr of the power receiving coil.
