Description
- This application is a divisional of the U.S. Utility patent application for “Inductive Mobile Device Charger,” Ser. No. 15/249,209, filed on Aug. 26, 2016 and currently co-pending, which in turn claims the benefit of priority to the U.S. Provisional Patent Application for “Wireless Mobile Device Charging Mat Charm with clip and battery and with or without retractable cord to re-charge the charging mat,” Ser. No. 62/211,130 filed on Aug. 28, 2015.
- The present invention pertains generally to chargers for mobile electronic devices. More particularly, the present invention pertains to a mobile device charger using inductive coupling with a mechanism for convenient storage of the cable and increased portability of the charger, and attachment of the charger to a purse or backpack. The present invention is particularly, but not exclusively, useful as a personal electronic device charger for persons temporarily in places away from home.
- Electricity is not always available to use to charge phones and mobile devices. Mobile device charger cords and metal tips are exposed to damage because they are not protected. In addition, people leave mobile device chargers at home and in hotel rooms, resulting in loss of the charger and depletion of the battery within the device.
- Existing Wireless Charging Mats are not Bag Charms and cannot be attached to other objects such as purses, pant loops, computer bags, necklaces. Therefore, they are easy to leave behind and hard to carry. Existing electric mobile device chargers do not have batteries built into them. They are disorganized, easily forgotten and easily broken.
- The present invention allows the user to charge their mobile device either from the battery or using an external power source while it is still attached to their bag so that they do not forget it in the outlet.
- This invention eliminates the problem of leaving phone charging mats behind when traveling or on the go. This invention eliminates the problem of not being able to charge a phone when electricity is not available.
- Mobile device chargers provide a means for charging the batteries of personal electronic devices by connecting them to a power source. The power source to which a mobile device charger connects is generally either a standard power outlet in a building or a vehicle's power source through a cigarette lighter outlet or dedicated charging port.
- Mobile device chargers currently offered for sale are easily damaged. The cords and connectors are not protected by the charger itself, and so they often sustain damage through exposure to people, pets, or other objects. Additionally, currently available mobile device chargers are often accidentally left at home or away from home in places where the owner was using them, such as offices or hotel rooms. Thus, special care must be taken to avoid damage or loss of currently available mobile device chargers.
- In light of the above, it would be advantageous to provide a device for inductive charging of portable electronic devices that is durable, easy to use, and comparatively cost effective.
- One object of the present invention is convenient portability and storage of a mobile device charger. Another object of the present invention is the avoidance of damage to a mobile device charger or loss of the charger.
- As stated above, electricity is not always available to use to charge phones and mobile devices. In addition, users of phones often leave their phone charger behind when traveling or on the go. The invention claimed here solves this problem. The present invention allows the user to carry a wireless mobile device charging mat attached to a purse, backpack or computer back so that it is not left behind when travelling or on the go.
- The claimed invention differs from what currently exists. We are not aware of any wireless mobile device charging mat enclosed in a bag charm that exists today. Existing wireless charging mats are not bag charms and cannot be attached to other objects such as purses, pant loops, computer bags, necklaces.
- This invention eliminates the problem of leaving phone charging mats behind when traveling or on the go. This invention eliminates the problem of not being able to charge a phone when electricity is not available.
- Existing mobile device chargers do not have a clip on them to allow them to be attached to anything else, so they are easily forgotten. Existing mobile device charger cords and metal tips are often damaged because they are exposed.
- The present invention includes a wireless charging mat to charge mobile devices and display advertisements, logos, etc., a housing under the mat to hold a battery and a built in electrical plug, a charm clip to attach the mat to other objects such as purses or belt loops, a battery to charge a mobile device when an electrical outlet is not available, and an electrical plug built into the housing.
- The present invention consists of a protective enclosure containing an inductive coupling charging circuit. A mobile device sitting on top of the present invention is charged through inductive coupling. An alternative embodiment includes a retractable cable with a connector at the end. The connector plugs into a power source such as a USB port in order to pass current from the power source to the inductive coupling charging circuit to charge the internal battery. When the invention is not in use, the enclosure protects the retracted cable and its connector, thus avoiding damage to the cable or connector. In an alternative embodiment, the cable and connector also provide current from the inductive mobile device charger to a mobile device, providing the additional ability of charging a mobile device that doesn't support inductive charging.
- An alternative embodiment includes a USB port in conjunction with a mobile device charging circuit. The USB port and corresponding charging circuit allows for charging a mobile device that lacks support for inductive charging.
- The enclosure on the present invention includes a connector for a chain. In one embodiment, this is a recessed part of the enclosure in which one side of the enclosure connects to the opposite side over the recess via a bridge or rod extending across the recess. A chain may be attached to the bridge or rod. In an alternative embodiment, the enclosure is extended on one end and the connector consists of an opening in the extension through which a chain may be connected. A clip or keychain may thus be attached to the enclosure through a cord or chain. By attaching the invention to another object via the clip, loss of the mobile device charger can be avoided.
- A preferred embodiment of the present invention uses a transformer to charge an internal battery, with a flyback controller on the primary side of the transformer and a synchronous rectifier circuit on the secondary side. The flyback controller switches the rectified main current through the primary side of the transformer at approximately 80 kHz. The switching speed is dithered to lessen harmonic content and ease EMI compliance. The resulting current is monitored by the flyback controller on an auxiliary winding on the primary side of the transformer, allowing the controller to protect against over-voltage and over-current conditions and the current to be monitored entirely on the primary side of the transformer. The secondary side of the transformer contains a synchronous rectifier circuit in place of the traditional diode, greatly improving the efficiency during use by removing the voltage/power loss across the diode. Further, when the load is removed entirely, a monitor circuit issues a special set of pulses through the transformer indicating to the primary-side flyback controller that there is no load, causing it to enter a low-power standby mode. This feature results in virtually zero standby power when the adapter is not connected to a device.
- A preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a foldable plug that sits flush with the enclosure when folded in, but may be extended in order to connect to a power source. In one variation of said embodiment, a recess around the folded plug allows easy access to the plug in order to extend it. In another variation, the ends of the plug's prongs, when folded in, sit against the edge of the enclosure, allowing extension by grasping the end of said prongs and pulling outward via a motion of the hand against the edge of the enclosure. By folding in the plug so that it sits flush with the enclosure, the mobile device charger may be easily transported in a pocket or a purse without damaging other objects stored with it.

FIG. 4 illustrates the primary components and functionality of an inductive mobiledevice charging system 200 comprising an inductivemobile device charger 100 and amobile device 204. Apower source 206, such as an internal battery or rectified current from a power outlet, provides power to aninverter 208. Theinverter 208 provides an AC waveform to aprimary coil 210. In a preferred embodiment, the frequency of the waveform is between 100 and 200 kHz. In a preferred embodiment, theinverter 208 transfers power to theprimary coil 210 by a full-bridge switching arrangement at a 50% duty cycle and a 130 kHz switching frequency. It is to be understood, however, that different frequencies may be used according to the needs of any individual project. Avoltage sensor 212 monitors theprimary coil 210 and provides data to acontroller circuit 214. Thecontroller circuit 214 in turn adjusts the output of theinverter 208 in order to provide an amount of power appropriate to the load provided by themobile device 204. Thevoltage sensor 212 and thecontroller circuit 214 may also detect communications from themobile device 204 and respond by increasing, decreasing, or shutting off the provided power. - The alternating current through the
primary coil 210 creates a magnetic flux, which in turn creates an alternating current in asecondary coil 216 inside the mobile device. The current is rectified by arectifying circuit 218 and passed on to theload 220. Acontroller circuit 222 in communication with both therectifying circuit 218 and theload 220 causes signals to be sent to the inductivemobile device charger 100 requesting the amount of power needed by theload 220. In most instances, theload 220 will comprise a battery, and the power necessary will vary depending on the amount of charge already present in the battery. Thecontroller circuit 222 of themobile device 204 may communicate with thecontroller circuit 214 of the inductivemobile device charger 100 through backscatter modulation by brief alterations of the load placed on thesecondary coil 216, which in turn are detected by thevoltage sensor 212 in the inductivemobile device charger 100. Additionally, in some embodiments, communication across theprimary coil 210 andsecondary coil 216 may be accomplished through frequency-shift keying. - In a preferred embodiment of the invention,
power source 206 comprises a battery as well as its own secondary coil, rectifier, and controller, which act asload 220,secondary coil 216, rectifyingcircuit 218, andcontroller circuit 214, respectively. Such a configuration allows multiplemobile device chargers 100 to be stacked onto each other, thus allowing for the simultaneous charging of the internal batteries of eachmobile device charger 100. Such a configuration is particularly useful when multiplemobile device chargers 100 need to be charged, but only a single power outlet is available. -
FIG. 5 is a schematic of an AC/DC converter circuit 300 as used in charging the internal battery in a preferred embodiment of the invention. The AC input is passed throughinitial rectifier 302 to a primaryside flyback controller 304. A low-profile transformer 306 then steps down the voltage. A wake-up monitor andsynchronous rectifier 308 on the secondary side of the transformer detects the presence or absence of a load, and signals theflyback controller 304 accordingly. The wake-up monitor and synchronous rectifier also acts as a near-ideal diode to rectify the current. Anactive charge indicator 310 detects when a personal electronic device is being charged and turns on light-emittingdiode 332. - In the
initial rectifier 302, a neutral AC line feeds one side of adiode bridge 312, while a hot AC line feeds the other side through aprotective fuse 314. The rectified current is provided to theflyback controller 304, which is based on a UCC28730integrated circuit 316. The flyback controller switches the current through primary winding 318 oftransformer 306, and monitors the current through auxiliary winding 320 of the transformer. The winding ratios oftransformer 306 may differ in different embodiments of the invention intended for sale in different regions of the world, as appropriate to the standard household outlet voltage of the region. - When there is no load, wake-up monitor and
synchronous rectifier 308, based on a UCC24650integrated circuit 322, sends a series of pulses through the transformer signaling theflyback controller 304 to shut down, saving power when there is no device connected to the charger. A UCC24610integrated circuit 324 provides the synchronous rectifier function, acting as a near-ideal diode providing high efficiency and low voltage or power loss. - Finally,
active charge indicator 310 uses acomparator 326 provide a voltage difference across light-emittingdiode 332 when a voltage drop acrossfilter inductor 328 indicates an active device is connected. Light-emittingdiode 332 thus indicates when a connected personal electronic device is being charged. - After the AC input is transformed and rectified, the internal battery is charged with current provided through 5-
volt output 330. - As shown in
FIG. 6 , an embodiment of the present invention may consist of separable modules, allowing the user to save space by attaching only the modules needed at any given time. This embodiment ofmobile device charger 100 includes awireless charging mat 404, in which is circuitry which receives DC power input and uses an inverter to transfer power to a primary coil, providing power via induction to a secondary or receiving coil in a mobile device. Themat 404 stacks on top of another module which provides the DC power input. Such a power source can be abattery module 406 which includes an internal battery, or acord module 408. Thecord module 408 acquires power from an external power source to provide to either abattery module 406 for charging its internal battery, or directly to the chargingmat 404. Thecord module 408 includes either a retractable USB cord configured to acquire power through a USB port, a retractable electrical plug configured to acquire power through a household power outlet, or both. Appropriate circuitry converts the power to the necessary DC output for themat 404 or thebattery module 406. - The
mat 404 is shown stacked on top of thebattery module 406, which in turn is stacked on thecord module 408, allowing the internal battery of thebattery module 406 to be charged while power is provided to themat 404 for charging a mobile device. If no power outlet is available, a user may stack themat 404 on thebattery module 406 alone and omit thecord module 408. If a power outlet is available and the user wishes to save space, themat 404 may be stacked directly onto thecord module 408, omitting entirely thebattery module 406. -
FIG. 7 shows an embodiment of the present invention configured for positioning amobile device charger 100 at an angle for convenient use of a mobile device during charging. A chargingmat 440 comprises apower source 206, aninverter 208, aprimary coil 210, avoltage sensor 212, and acontroller circuit 214 as shown inFIG. 4 . Attached to the bottom of the chargingmat 440 is alever 442 which, in a first configuration, sits flush with the chargingmat 440. Thelever 442 is attached to the chargingmat 440 via a hinge, which allows thelever 442 to pivot outward into alternate configurations. Thelever 442 is configured to lock into alternate configurations at desired angles. One way in which this may be accomplished is via abase 444 attached to one end of the chargingmatt 440 via a hinge. The base 444 would normally sit in a first configuration flush with the chargingmat 440, and covering thelever 442 sitting in its first configuration. When folded outward, thelever 442 would be held in each of its configurations viastoppers 446 on thebase 444.Stoppers 446 are preferably grooves in the base 444 or ridges on the base 444 which allow thelever 442 to be held in place. - While the above is a description of various embodiments of the present invention, further modifications may be employed without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus the scope of the invention should not be limited according to these factors, but according to the following claims.
