  • Publication number: 20230299613
    Abstract: A wireless charging system includes, in part, a first board, a multitude of rectenna boards, and a second board. The first board is adapted to receive a bottom portion of a rechargeable battery, and includes, in part, a ground plane, a first multitude of receptacles positioned along a perimeter of the first board, and circuitry adapted to convert a received RF signal to a DC voltage for delivery to the rechargeable battery. Each rectenna board is associated with and adapted to be inserted into a different one of the first multitude of receptacles. Each rectenna board includes, in part, a multitude of receive antennas for receiving the RF signal. The rectenna boards are adapted to enclose the rechargeable battery when the rechargeable battery is positioned over the first board. The second board is adapted to engage with the rectenna boards to cover a top portion of the rechargeable battery.

  • Patent number: 11186422
    Abstract: An insulating device can include an aperture having a waterproof closure which allows access to the chamber within the insulating device. The closure can help prevent any fluid leakage into and out of the insulating device if the insulating device is overturned or in any configuration other than upright. The closure may also prevent any fluid from permeating into the chamber if the insulating device is exposed to precipitation, other fluid, or submersed under water. This construction results in an insulating chamber that is substantially impervious to water and other liquids when the closure is sealed.

  • Patent number: 10143282
    Abstract: An insulating device can include a body assembly and a lid assembly where an insulating layer is connected to both the body assembly and the lid assembly. An aperture with a closure is formed between the body assembly and lid assembly to form a storage compartment. The insulating layer on the lid assembly may extend beyond the closure when the closure is sealed. The insulating layer on the lid assembly may have an insulating ring that has an increased thickness around its perimeter.
