Abstract: A power conversion apparatus included in a home appliance and including a converter configured to convert an AC power source into DC power and output the DC power to a DC terminal; a DC link capacitor connected to the DC terminal and configured to store DC power from the converter; an inverter configured to convert DC power from the DC link capacitor into AC power and output the converted AC power to a compressor; and a bandpass filter damper disposed between the input AC power source and the DC link capacitor and configured to allow a predetermined range of frequencies to pass through. Further, the bandpass filter damper is electrically connected to a ground of the input AC power source, thereby reducing the amount of leakage current flowing to the system ground.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wired/wireless integrated power reception system provided in a vehicle, the wireless/wireless integrated power reception system including: a wired power reception apparatus configured to receive power from a transformer in a wired power receiving mode; a relay unit, which upon detecting reception of wireless power from a wireless power transmission pad, is configured to switch to a wireless power receiving mode; and a wireless power reception pad configured to receive power by magnetic coupling in the wireless power receiving mode.

Abstract: A wireless charging pad includes a ferrite plate, a coil disposed at the ferrite plate, and a resonance tank that includes a flat type capacitor. The flat type capacitor is configured to reduce an impedance of the coil.

Abstract: A foreign object detector for detecting a foreign object between a transmission pad and a reception pad of a wireless charging system can include a plurality of object detectors; and a detection circuit configured to detect an object based on data received from the plurality of object detectors, in which each of the plurality of object detectors includes a first coil part including a coil wound in a first rotation direction; and a second coil part stacked on the first coil part and including a coil wound in a second rotation direction different from the first rotational direction, and in which each of the plurality of object detectors is connected in series or in parallel with one another.
