  • Patent number: 6362594
    Abstract: An electromagnetic induction non-contact charger includes a stand and a power source device arranged on the stand. A feeding coupler is coupled to a cable extending from the power source device. The power source device includes an outer casing and a vertical duct arranged in the outer casing. An intake hole and an exhaust hole are provided at the bottom of the outer housing, and a blower is arranged in the outer casing above the duct, so that air is taken in from the intake hole, flows up in the outer casing and outside the duct, enters the duct via blower at the top of the duct, flows down in the duct, and is discharged from the exhaust hole. The duct is constructed using a cooling fin plate, and a circuit board is directly attached to the duct. The stand is tubular, and the exhaust hole is in communication with interior space of the stand. The stand has outlet holes and louvers which are attached to the stand.

  • Patent number: 6316910
    Abstract: The first accommodation space forming body is joined to the supporting base plate, and the second accommodation space forming body is joined to the first accommodation space forming body. Accommodation space S is formed between the accommodation space forming bodies. The positioning body is joined to the second accommodation space forming body. The accommodation space forming bodies are fixed onto the supporting base plate by screwing the screws. The profile and size of the first accommodation space forming body are the same as those of the second accommodation space forming body. The accommodation space forming bodies are joined to each other by the engagement of the engaging protrusions with the engaging recesses.

  • Patent number: 6316908
    Abstract: A charger includes a power source device having an outer casing constructed by housing, an upper housing and a side cover, which are formed of metal. Circuit boards and electric components are mounted to the lower housing. An indicator, a coupler resting case and a sensor are mounted on the upper housing. An opening is formed in the upper housing so that wires extending from the indicator and the sensor can be connected to wires extending from the circuit board through the opening of the upper housing, after the upper housing is placed on the lower housing. The opening is closed by a cover and is electromagnetically sealed.

  • Patent number: 6084381
    Abstract: An inductive charger coupling for charging a battery includes a generally flat charging paddle and a charging receptacle. The charging paddle includes a primary core and a primary coil. The paddle is electrically connected to an external power supply. The charging receptacle includes a secondary core and a secondary coil. The receptacle is electrically connected to the battery. The secondary core engages the primary core when the charging paddle is plugged into the charging receptacle. The paddle lacks corners at its distal end, and the secondary core is shaped to conform to the distal end of the paddle, which narrows the overall width of the coupling.
