  • Patent number: 11916404
    Abstract: A wireless power supply power supply including first tuning circuitry coupled directly to a transmitter, the first tuning circuitry including an LCC configuration. The wireless power supply may include second tuning circuitry coupled directly to switching circuitry (e.g., an inverter) of the power supply, where the second tuning circuitry may be operable to direct power from the switching circuitry to the first tuning circuitry for supply to the transmitter, and where the second tuning circuitry includes a reactance operable to establish inductive operation of the switching circuitry at the switching frequency of the switching circuitry.

  • Patent number: 10177647
    Abstract: A direct current controller includes a rectifier configured to convert alternating current input into a direct current output. A converter electrically coupled to the rectifier generates a converted direct current voltage that regulates a converted direct current from the direct current output of the rectifier and synthesizes an ac component of an alternating current grid to counteract an induced back-emf. A direct current controller central controller coupled to the converter regulates the converted direct current.

  • Patent number: 9640976
    Abstract: A wireless power transfer overvoltage protection system is provided. The system includes a resonant receiving circuit. The resonant receiving circuit includes an inductor, a resonant capacitor and a first switching device. The first switching device is connected the ends of the inductor. The first switching device has a first state in which the ends of the inductor are electrically coupled to each other through the first switching device, and a second state in which the inductor and resonant capacitor are capable of resonating. The system further includes a control module configured to control the first switching device to switching between the first state and the second state when the resonant receiving circuit is charging a load and a preset condition is satisfied and otherwise, the first switching device is maintained in the first state.

  • Publication number: 20160001662
    Abstract: An energy buffer including an electrochemical capacitor can be added to the primary circuit and/or to the secondary circuit of in-motion wireless power transfer system. The energy buffer(s) can smoothen the power delivered by the power grid and captured by a vehicle passing over an array of transmit coils through in-motion wireless power transfer. The reduction in the transient power transfer can reduce the peak current that flows through various components of the in-motion wireless power transfer system including a vehicle battery on the vehicle, and prolong the life of the in-motion wireless power transfer system.
