Publication number: 20170287626Abstract: Coil assembly including a flux-control body having a magnetic material and a body side. The flux-control body includes a shield wall that defines a coil channel of the flux-control body that opens along the body side to an exterior of the flux-control body. The coil assembly also includes an electrical conductor positioned within the coil channel. The electrical conductor forms a power-transfer coil having co-planar windings that are configured to generate a magnetic flux within a spatial region that is adjacent to the body side. Adjacent windings are separated by the shield wall of the flux-control body. The shield wall controls a distribution of the magnetic flux experienced within the spatial region.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2016Publication date: October 5, 2017Inventors: Jason Larson, Mudhafar Hassan-Ali, James Toth, Ting Gao, Jialing Wang
