  • Contactless Connector System Having Feedback From Secondary Side
    Publication number: 20170141616
    Abstract: A contactless connector system is disclosed. The contactless connector system has a power transmitting connector and a power receiving connector. The power transmitting connector has a primary resonant circuit generating a magnetic field at a primary inductive coupler, a primary data transceiver, and a primary control unit connected to and controlling the resonant circuit and the primary data transceiver. The power receiving connector has a secondary inductive coupler electromagnetically coupled to the primary inductive coupler and receiving electric power from the primary inductive coupler, a secondary data transceiver connected with the primary data transceiver to form a bi-directional data link with the primary data transceiver, and a secondary sensing unit measuring at least one secondary operational parameter. The primary control unit controls the resonant circuit based on the at least one secondary operational parameter.
