  • a circuit board 54 is arranged, which carries on its underside a plurality of metal strips 55, which serve to shield the electric field and are electrically connected to the metal housing 51.
  • the cover 52 with the transmitting coil 16, the ferrite plate 53 and the circuit board 54 with the metal strips 55 are received in a Ferrittopf 56 to shield the magnetic field.
  • the ferrite pot 56 can also be formed, for example, by a ferrite foil, whereby an improvement of the coil coupling and the electromagnetic compatibility can be achieved. Furthermore, a local ground can be provided via a capacitance to dissipate interference currents.
  • the receiving coil unit 60 is formed in a similar manner as the transmitting coil unit 50.
  • the receiving coil unit 60 is disposed in the operating position opposite to the transmitting coil unit 50, with the individual components being respectively reversed.
  • an air gap 57 remains, the width of which is dimensioned in such a way that energy transfer from the transmitting coil 16 to the receiving coil 22 is as efficient as possible.
