  • Patent number: 11967836
    Abstract: Metal object detection may be performed in a wireless power system by monitoring the 5th or other order harmonic current of a dual-frequency power transmitter driven by a voltage-fed inverter with square-wave output. While power transfer is maintained by tuning at the fundamental frequency, the transmitter circuit is tuned simultaneously at the 5th order frequency or other harmonic frequencies to increase or decrease the flow of the harmonic current for when a metal object is present. The receiver circuit may include a notch filter to filter out the 5th order frequency. With the dual-frequency tuning configuration, the presence of a metal object causes a significant drop of the increase in the harmonic current at the transmitter side while the receiver behaves as an open circuit with no effect on power transfer. The harmonic tuning circuit may be switched off as necessary to leave only the fundamental frequency for power transfer.

  • Patent number: 11317496
    Abstract: Provided is an LED lamp circuit, comprising an LED luminous component circuit, a rectifier circuit, and an output control circuit coupled between the LED luminous component circuit and the rectifier circuit. The LED luminous component circuit comprises at least one light-emitting diode. The rectifier circuit is configured to output a rectified voltage to the LED luminous component circuit. The output control circuit comprises a voltage regulator circuit and a control switch circuit. The voltage regulator circuit comprises a thermosensitive device and a voltage divider connected in series. The thermosensitive device can regulate the control voltage at both ends of the control switch circuit. To protect the LED lamp, the control switch circuit disconnects when the control voltage is less than the threshold voltage of the control switch circuit.
