摘要: In one example, an apparatus for wireless power transfer may include a resonant section of a wireless power transfer converter, a first switching section having a full-bridge topology, a second switching section including bidirectional switches in a full-bridge topology, and a transformer with N turns having a first side and a second side. The first switching section may include a first leg and a second leg, each having a center point. The resonant section may include a first connection and a second connection. The second switching section may include a first leg and a second leg, each having a center point. A first connection of the first side of the transformer may be connected in series with the second connection of the resonant section. The first connection of the resonant section and a second connection of the first side of the transformer may be connected to the center points of the first switching section, respectively. The second side of the transformer may be connected between the center points of the second switching section. Other examples may be described and claimed.

摘要: An apparatus includes a ping detection module that detects a ping signal transmitted from a secondary pad to a primary pad. The secondary pad is located on a mobile device and the primary pad located on a stationary WPT device, where the stationary WPT device transmits power through the primary pad to the secondary pad of the mobile device during a wireless power transfer operation. The ping signal includes a mobile device ID and the mobile device ID is unique to the mobile device. The apparatus includes an ID detection module that detects the mobile device ID from the ping signal received at the primary pad and a pairing module that pairs the stationary WPT device with the mobile device in response to detecting the mobile device ID of the mobile device.

摘要: A wireless power transfer (“WPT”) pad apparatus includes a first winding adjacent to the ferrite structure, where the first winding is arranged in a spiral-type pattern, and a second winding adjacent to the ferrite structure. The second winding is arranged in a spiral-type pattern and the second winding wound interleaved to the first winding. The first and second windings are arranged to compensate for a difference in length between the first winding and the second winding for portions of the first and second windings wound adjacent to each other.

摘要: Described herein is a structure, the implementation of which may result in optimization of power transfer within a wireless power transfer pad. Such a structure comprises two planes in parallel that each comprise multiple windings. Additionally, the structure may include two magnetic structures that each pass through the centers of the multiple windings of one of the respective planes. In some embodiments, a magnetic structure may include a main section and two vertical sections. In some cases, the magnetic structure may further include at least one side section that connects with a vertical section.

摘要: A wireless power transfer pad apparatus may include a ferrite structure and four windings adjacent to the ferrite structure. The ferrite structure may include a magnetic pathway. A ferrite pathway between adjacent windings of the four windings may have a thickness and a width to provide a low impedance, unsaturated magnetic pathway for an electromagnetic field generated by the adjacent windings. Other examples may be described and claimed.

摘要: Described herein is a wireless transfer system that includes a lower charging pad having at least one first winding, the at least one first winding configured to, upon being provided a first current, cause a second current to be induced in the at least one second winding of an upper charging pad. The lower charging pad comprises a combination of one or more inclined portions and a position adjustment mechanism positioned under a movable magnetic structure within the lower charging pad. Parameters of the second current is dependent upon a size of a gap between the one or more first vertical portions and the one or more inclined portions, the size of the gap being adjusted by first changing a position of the one or more vertical portions with respect to the one or more inclined portions.
