  • Patent number: 12071032
    Abstract: A secondary circuit device including a secondary coil for transmitting and/or receiving magnetic energy of a magnetic field and converting the magnetic energy into electrical energy, a transmission unit for transmitting the electrical energy, a detection unit, and a clamper circuit, wherein the magnetic field is generated by a primary coil of a primary circuit device; the transmission unit has an inlet for connecting the secondary coil; the transmission unit has an outlet for providing the electrical energy as voltage and/or current; the detection unit is connected to the inlet and/or the outlet of the energy transmission unit, in order to detect an overvoltage at the inlet and/or the outlet; and, when the overvoltage is detected, the detection unit is configured to influence the magnetic field in the secondary coil via the clamper circuit such that a current jump and/or a voltage jump is brought about in the primary coil.

  • Patent number: 12030393
    Abstract: A system for charging an energy store in a vehicle and a method for operating the system, wherein the system includes a first transmission unit having a primary coil, arranged outside the vehicle in a stationary manner, and a second transmission unit having a secondary coil, arranged in the vehicle, wherein energy is transmitted via inductive energy transmission from the primary coil to the secondary coil to charge the energy store. The second transmission unit has a signal generator for generating and coupling signals into the secondary coil for transmission via the secondary coil, and the first transmission unit has an evaluation unit, a first auxiliary coil, and a second auxiliary coil, wherein the evaluation unit is designed to ascertain a magnetic coupling and/or a relative position between the first transmission unit and the second transmission unit based on the signals received by the primary coil and the auxiliary coils.
