  • Publication number: 20230208195
    Abstract: Disclosed is a transmitting device for contactless transfer of electric energy by means of inductive coupling or by means of capacitive coupling to one or several receiving modules, each comprising a field receiving element for receiving electric energy, the transmitting device including: a plurality of transmitting modules, each including a field generating element for generating an alternating energy field and an electric energy source for providing an electric alternating quantity to the respective field generating element in a wired manner; and controller configured, in an energy transfer mode, to control the electric energy sources such that a plurality of the transmitting modules simultaneously generate one of the electric alternating fields each, wherein, in the energy transfer mode, the electric alternating fields are controlled in dependence on a singular value decomposition of a matrix depending on a coupling matrix, wherein the coupling matrix comprises coupling factors to several or to all of the

  • Patent number: 10374458
    Abstract: A method of inductive power transmission by a transmitter and a receiver of an electrically operated device, the transmitter having at least one transmitter coil and the receiver having at least one receiver coil, a control for the power to be transmitted is provided in the transmitter, a minimum power is transmitted by the transmitter through the control at the start of a power transmission, the minimum transferring power is sufficiently dimensioned to activate a controller of the receiver of the electrically operated device. By influencing the field of the transmitter coil, the controller supplies data packets to the control that contain information about the electrically operated device so that an optimal power adapted to the power class of the device is transmitted by the transmitter.

  • Publication number: 20170070097
    Abstract: An assembly for an inductive power transfer includes: a transmitter having a transmitting coil; and a receiver of an energy consumer. The receiver has: a receiver coil arrangement, the receiver coil arrangement including: a substrate having a first side and a second side, a first planar coil arranged on the first side of the substrate, and a second planar coil. The second planar coil has a different number of turns than the first planar coil and is arranged on the second side of the substrate opposite the first side of the substrate.
