Description

Non-contact adapter

The present invention relates to a non-contact adapter.

For example, Patent Document 1 proposes a non-contact power feeding system that feeds power from a power feeding device to a power receiving device in a non-contact manner. The non-contact power supply system supplies a high-frequency current to the primary coil and supplies electric power to the electrical equipment through the secondary coil using electromagnetic induction. For stable power supply, the secondary coil must be installed in a place where the magnetic flux of the primary coil in the power supply area is sufficiently received. Usually, the secondary coil is placed almost directly above the primary coil.

By the way, a user of a mobile device such as a notebook personal computer may perform work using the mobile device while charging the mobile device. However, if the mobile device has a built-in secondary coil and the power supply area of the non-contact power supply system is fixed, the user may be forced to operate the mobile device being charged in a non-free posture. .

As this solution, a non-contact adapter incorporating a secondary coil has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2). The secondary coil of the non-contact adapter is installed on the primary coil, and in this state, the non-contact adapter is connected to an electric device such as a mobile device via an electric wire.

Hereinafter, a non-contact adapter according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

As shown in FIG. 1, a non-contact power feeding device (hereinafter referred to as a power feeding device) 10 is embedded in the top plate 2 of the desk 1. The power supply apparatus 10 includes a power supply coil (primary coil) 11 and a high-frequency inverter 13 (see FIG. 4) that generates a high-frequency current and supplies the high-frequency current to the power supply coil 11.

The feeding coil 11 is disposed on the back side of the upper surface of the casing of the feeding device 10, for example. The coil surface of the feeding coil 11 is arranged in parallel with the surface 2 a of the top plate 2 of the desk 1. When the high-frequency current from the high-frequency inverter 13 is energized, the feeding coil 11 generates an alternating magnetic flux. The alternating magnetic flux is radiated upward from the surface 2 a of the top plate 2 and located immediately above the feeding coil 11.

The non-contact adapter 20 is placed immediately above the feeding coil 11, for example. The non-contact adapter 20 includes a power receiving coil (secondary coil) 22 and a housing 21 that houses the power receiving coil (secondary coil) 22. The power receiving coil 22 is preferably disposed in the vicinity of the bottom of the housing 21. When the non-contact adapter 20 is placed on the top plate 2, the coil surface of the power receiving coil 22 is preferably opposed to the coil surface of the power feeding coil 11 in parallel.

The power receiving coil 22 crosses with the alternating magnetic flux generated by the power feeding coil 11 to generate an induced voltage. The power receiving coil 22 outputs the generated induced voltage to a power receiving circuit 29 (see FIG. 4) provided in the housing 21. The power receiving circuit 29 generates a power supply voltage from the induced voltage generated by the power receiving coil 22. The power receiving circuit 29 functions as a power supply circuit unit.

As shown in FIG. 2, the rear surface 21 a of the housing 21 is provided with an outlet 26 and a display lamp 27 made of a light emitting element such as an LED. Output terminals T3 and T4 (see FIG. 4) of the outlet 26 are electrically connected to external output terminals T1 and T2 (see FIG. 4) of the power receiving circuit 29. The display lamp 27 displays whether the non-contact adapter 20 is receiving power from the power supply apparatus 10. The output terminals T3 and T4 (outlet 26) function as an output unit of the non-contact adapter 20.

A pedestal 30 is disposed on the upper surface 21 b of the housing 21. The pedestal 30 can tilt with respect to the housing 21. The pedestal 30 has a plate shape, for example, and has an upper surface 30c having the same shape as the upper surface 21b of the housing 21 when viewed from above.

The tilt angle adjustment mechanism of the non-contact adapter 20 will be described. The tilt angle adjusting mechanism is provided in one or both of the base 30 and the housing 21 and adjusts the tilt angle of the base 30 with respect to the housing 21 stepwise or steplessly. In the example illustrated in FIG. 2, the tilt angle adjusting mechanism includes a support arm 33 provided in the housing 21, a fitting recess 34 provided in the pedestal 30, a rear surface 30 a of the pedestal 30, and a rear surface 21 a of the housing 21. And a connecting member such as a hinge 31 that rotatably connects the two. The pedestal 30 tilts around the hinge axis O of the hinge 31.

As shown in FIG. 2, an arm pocket 32 that can be a recess is formed on the upper surface 21 b of the housing 21. A support arm 33 is accommodated in the arm pocket 32. The base end portion of the support arm 33 is rotatably supported by the housing 21 in the arm pocket 32. The support arm 33 rotates between a storage position completely stored in the arm pocket 32 and a standing position. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when the support arm 33 is in the upright position, the distal end portion of the support arm 33 protrudes from the arm pocket 32, and the support arm 33 preferably contacts the pedestal 30 at a substantially right angle.

As shown by a broken line in FIG. 3, a plurality of fitting recesses 34 are formed in the front and back at a position facing the arm pocket 32 of the housing 21 on the lower surface 30 b of the base 30. In the illustrated example, the plurality of fitting recesses 34 are formed at a constant pitch. The plurality of fitting recesses 34 may be formed at a pitch that changes regularly or irregularly. Each fitting recess 34 is formed to receive the tip of the support arm 33. When the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 is changed, the distal end portion of the support arm 33 is engaged with one fitting recess 34 selected according to the inclination angle of the pedestal 30. The inclination angle of the pedestal 30 can be changed stepwise at an angle interval corresponding to the pitch of the fitting recesses 34. The support arm 33 is an example of a rotatable support member. The fitting recess 34 is an example of a fitting holding part.

For example, when the support arm 33 is in the storage position, the pedestal 30 is disposed in a horizontal position in contact with the upper surface 21b of the housing 21 as indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. On the other hand, when the support arm 33 is in the upright position, the angle between the pedestal 30 and the housing 21 is maximized, as shown by the solid line in FIG. The pedestal 30 can be changed stepwise into a horizontal position and a number of inclined positions corresponding to the number of fitting recesses 34. When the tip of the support arm 33 is engaged with one fitting recess 34 selected from among the plurality of fitting recesses 34, the base 30 is supported at the selected inclination angle.

A projector 40 as an electric device is placed on the upper surface 30 c of the pedestal 30. Since the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 can be changed in stages, the projection angle of the projector 40 can be changed in stages. The projector 40 is supplied with power from the non-contact adapter 20 by inserting the power plug 41 of the projector 40 into the outlet 26 of the housing 21.

Next, the electrical configuration of the power supply device 10 and the non-contact adapter 20 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 4, the power feeding device 10 includes a power supply circuit 12, a high frequency inverter 13, and a power feeding coil 11. The power supply circuit 12 can include, for example, a rectifier circuit and a DC-DC converter. The rectifier circuit rectifies the AC voltage of the commercial power source to generate a DC voltage, and the DC-DC converter converts the rectified DC voltage into a desired DC voltage and supplies the DC voltage to the high-frequency inverter 13. .

The high frequency inverter 13 is connected to the power supply circuit 12 and the feeding coil 11. The high frequency inverter 13 is driven by a DC voltage from the power supply circuit 12 to generate a high frequency current having an oscillation frequency, and causes the generated high frequency current to flow through the feeding coil 11. The feeding coil 11 generates alternating magnetic flux when energized with a high-frequency current.

The non-contact adapter 20 includes a power receiving circuit 29 connected to the power receiving coil 22. The power receiving circuit 29 includes, for example, a rectifying / smoothing circuit and a DC-AC conversion circuit. The rectifying and smoothing circuit converts the induced voltage generated by the power receiving coil 22 into a direct current voltage, and the DC-AC conversion circuit converts the direct current voltage into a power supply voltage suitable for the power supply specification of the projector 40, and the power supply voltage is converted into the power receiving circuit 29. Output from the external output terminals T1 and T2.

External output terminals T1 and T2 are connected to output terminals T3 and T4 of the outlet 26. The output terminals T3 and T4 of the outlet 26 are connected to the plug terminals T5 and T6 of the power plug 41 of the projector 40. As a result, the power supply voltage from the power receiving circuit 29 (non-contact adapter 20) is applied to the projector 40.

Next, the operation of the non-contact adapter 20 will be described.

The non-contact adapter 20 in which the projector 40 is placed on the pedestal 30 is disposed directly above the power feeding coil 11 of the power feeding device 10. The power receiving coil 22 in the housing 21 is linked with the alternating magnetic flux generated by the power feeding coil 11 to generate an induced voltage. The power receiving circuit 29 generates a power supply voltage that conforms to the power supply specifications of the projector 40 from the induced voltage generated by the power receiving coil 22.

The power supply voltage is supplied from the non-contact adapter 20 to the projector 40 via the outlet 26 provided in the housing 21 and the power plug 41 of the projector 40 mounted on the pedestal 30, so that the projector 40 is ready for use. .

When the user changes the inclination angle of the projector 40, the user erects the support arm 33 in the arm pocket 32 of the housing 21, and the front end portion of the support arm 33 is placed on the plurality of lower surfaces 30 b of the base 30. The fitting recess 34 is fitted into the fitting recess 34 corresponding to a desired inclination angle. Accordingly, the pedestal 30 is supported by the support arm 33 at a desired inclination angle. As a result, the projector 40 placed on the pedestal 30 projects an image at a desired tilt angle.

Next, effects of the embodiment will be described below.

(1) According to the embodiment described above, the non-contact adapter 20 supplies drive power to the projector 40 placed on the pedestal 30 if the casing 21 is disposed at a location where the power feeding coil 11 is installed. be able to.

(2) According to the above embodiment, the pedestal 30 is connected to the housing 21 via the hinge 31. The support arm 33 is rotatably provided on the housing 21, and the fitting recess 34 is provided on the pedestal 30. The base 30 is tilted and supported by fitting the tip of the support arm 33 into the fitting recess 34. Therefore, the non-contact adapter 20 can supply power to the projector 40 while tilting and supporting the projector 40 placed on the pedestal 30. Thereby, the projector 40 can operate without impairing the original function and performance.

When a plurality of fitting recesses 34 are formed on the lower surface 30b of the pedestal 30, the non-contact adapter 20 can change the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 in various ways. Power can be supplied to the projector 40 while supporting a desired inclination angle selected from the inclination angles.

(3) According to the above embodiment, when the support arm 33 supports the pedestal 30, the tip of the support arm 33 is fitted into the fitting recess 34 on the lower surface 30 b of the pedestal 30. Further, the tip of the support arm 33 is pressed against the fitting recess 34 by the weight of the base 30 and the projector 40. Accordingly, the distal end portion of the support arm 33 is unlikely to be detached from the fitting recess 34, and the support arm 33 can support the base 30 and the projector 40 at a desired inclination angle.

The embodiment can be modified as follows, for example.

The number of support arms 33 is not limited to two as in the example of FIG. 2, and may be one or three or more.

The number of fitting recesses 34 is not particularly limited. For example, the pedestal 30 may have one fitting recess 34 corresponding to the maximum tilt position of the pedestal 30. In this case, the pedestal 30 is disposed at the horizontal position or the maximum inclined position.

The tilt angle adjusting mechanism can include a ratchet mechanism provided on a shaft portion that rotatably supports the base end portion of the support arm 33 instead of the fitting recess 34 of the base 30. When the ratchet mechanism holds the support arm 33 at a desired angle, the non-contact adapter 20 can change the inclination angle of the base 30 in stages.

As shown in FIG. 5, the tilt angle adjustment mechanism can include a support shaft 51 as a connecting member and a bearing piece 50 that rotatably supports the support shaft 51, instead of the hinge 31 of FIG. 3. . The bearing pieces 50 are formed at, for example, the left rear end and the right rear end of the upper surface 21b of the housing 21. The support shaft 51 may be, for example, a protrusion that penetrates the rear side portion of the pedestal 30 or is formed on the rear side portion of the pedestal 30. The bearing piece 50 rotatably supports the support shaft 51. The pedestal 30 is rotatably connected to the housing 21 by a support shaft 51 and a bearing piece 50.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the tilt angle adjusting mechanism is a support plate provided on the pedestal 30 instead of the support arm 33 provided on the housing 21 and the fitting recess 34 provided on the pedestal 30. 52 and a plurality of engagement grooves 55 provided in the housing 21 can be included. For example, the support plate 52 is rotatably connected to the tip of the relatively short pedestal 30. For example, the bearing portion 53 extends from the left end and the right end of the pedestal 30. Both the bearing parts 53 support the support shaft 54 which protrudes from the base end part of the support plate 52, respectively so that rotation is possible. The support shaft 54 may be a single shaft that passes through the base end portion of the support plate 52. The front end portion of the support plate 52 is engaged with an engagement groove 55 corresponding to a desired inclination angle from among the plurality of engagement grooves 55. Also in this example, the same effect as the above embodiment can be obtained. The upper surface 21 b of the housing 21 may have one engagement groove corresponding to the maximum inclination angle of the base 30 instead of the plurality of engagement grooves 55. The support plate 52 is an example of a rotatable support member. The engagement groove 55 is an example of a fitting holding part.

In the example shown in FIG. 6, the tilt angle adjustment mechanism includes a plurality of stopper seats 56 formed on the upper surface 21 b of the housing 21, and a stopper 57 that is disposed on one stopper seat 56 and contacts the lower surface of the pedestal 30. . In the illustrated example, the plurality of stopper seats 56 are formed at a constant pitch. The plurality of stopper seats 56 may be formed at a pitch that changes regularly or irregularly. Each stopper seat 56 can be a groove or recess that receives only the lower portion of the stopper 57. The stopper 57 has a cylindrical shape, for example. When the non-contact adapter 20 changes the tilt angle of the pedestal 30, the stopper 57 is disposed on one stopper seat 56 selected according to the tilt angle of the pedestal 30. The inclination angle of the pedestal 30 (projector 40) can be changed stepwise at an angular interval corresponding to the pitch of the stopper seat. The upper surface 21 b of the housing 21 may have one stopper seat corresponding to the maximum inclination angle of the pedestal 30 instead of the plurality of stopper seats 56.

In the above embodiment and some modified examples, the tilt angle adjusting mechanism is configured to change the tilt angle of the pedestal 30 (projector 40) stepwise. The tilt angle adjusting mechanism may be configured to change the tilt angle steplessly. For example, the tilt angle adjusting mechanism can include a tilt holding member that can be steplessly deformed.

For example, FIG. 7 shows a tilt angle adjusting mechanism including a connecting member such as a hinge 31 and a steplessly deformable tilt holding member connected to the base 30 and the casing 21. The tilt holding member is rotatably connected to the upper surface 21b of the housing 21 via the first joint J1 so as to be rotatable and to the lower surface 30b of the base 30 via the second joint J2. It includes an arm A2 and a third joint J3 that couples the arms so that the angle between the arm A1 and the arm A2 can be changed.

The inclined holding member allows the angle between the arm A1 and the arm A2 to be changed when a predetermined force is applied to the pedestal 30, but between the arm A1 and the arm A2 when the force is less than the predetermined force. Deformation resistance (for example, rotation resistance of the joint) set so as not to allow the change of the angle. The tilt holding member allows the tilt angle to be changed when the user applies a force to the pedestal 30 with the projector 40 placed on the pedestal 30, and holds the tilt angle of the pedestal 30 after the change. . Therefore, the user can change the distance between both ends of the tilt holding member steplessly by applying force to rotate the base 30 and can change the tilt angle of the base 30 (projector 40) steplessly. . The tilt holding member in FIG. 7 may be referred to as a tilt holding member that can be bent steplessly.

The tilt holding member that can be deformed steplessly may be a telescopic member such as a telescopic pipe whose total length can be changed steplessly. Both ends of the elastic member are connected to the upper surface 21b of the housing 21 and the lower surface 30b of the base 30 by, for example, universal joints. The elastic member expands or contracts when a predetermined force is applied to the pedestal 30, but has a deformation resistance (extension resistance) set so as not to expand and contract with a force less than the predetermined force. By the expansion and contraction of the elastic member, the distance between both ends of the inclined holding member is changed steplessly, and the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 is changed steplessly. Therefore, the user can change the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 (projector 40) steplessly by rotating the pedestal 30 by applying force.

In the example shown in FIG. 8, the tilt angle adjusting mechanism includes a bearing piece 50 and a support shaft 51. Friction or rotation resistance between the bearing piece 50 and the support shaft 51 (if the support shaft 51 and the pedestal 30 are separate members, friction or rotation resistance between the support shaft 51 and the pedestal 30) is applied to the pedestal 30 in a predetermined manner. The rotation of the support shaft 51 is allowed when a force is applied, but the rotation of the support shaft 51 is not allowed with a force that does not satisfy a predetermined force.

The tilt angle adjusting mechanism allows the tilt angle to be changed when the user applies a force to the pedestal 30 with the projector 40 mounted on the pedestal 30, and maintains the tilt angle of the pedestal 30 after the change. To do. The user can apply a force to rotate the pedestal 30 to change the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 (projector 40) steplessly, and can maintain the desired inclination angle.

8 can be provided with a fastening member or a lock for tightening the rear portion of the base 30 between the pair of bearing pieces 50. For example, when the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 is changed, the fastening member loosens the rear portion of the pedestal 30 by the pair of bearing pieces 50. In a state where the pedestal 30 is disposed at a desired inclination angle, the fastening member tightens the rear portion of the pedestal 30 with the pair of bearing pieces 50 and holds the pedestal 30 at the inclination angle. Also with this structure, the inclination angle of the pedestal 30 (projector 40) is changed steplessly and held at a desired inclination angle.

In the example shown in FIG. 9, the tilt angle adjusting mechanism includes a pair of support side plates 60 provided on the upper surface 21 b of the housing 21, and a pedestal 61 suspended from the support side plates 60 so as to be rotatable. The pedestal 61 is connected to a flat pedestal plate 62 on which the projector 40 is placed, a pair of suspending plates 63 extending upward from the pedestal plate 62, and a support side plate 60 corresponding to the upper end portion of each suspending plate 63. And a support shaft 64 as a connecting member.

The friction or rotation resistance between the support side plate 60 and the support shaft 64 and the friction or rotation resistance between the support shaft 64 and the suspension plate 63 are the support shaft 64 when a predetermined force is applied to the base plate 62. Is set such that rotation of the support shaft 64 is not allowed with a force that does not satisfy a predetermined force. The tilt angle adjusting mechanism allows the tilt angle to be changed when the user applies a force to the base plate 62 with the projector 40 placed on the base plate 62, and the tilt of the base plate 62 after the change is made. Hold the angle. The user applies a force to rotate the pedestal plate 62 to change the inclination angle of the pedestal plate 62 (projector 40) steplessly, and can maintain the desired inclination angle.

9 can include a fastening member or a lock for fastening the suspension plate 63 between the pair of support side plates 60. The inclination angle of the base plate 62 (projector 40) can be changed steplessly by the fastening member tightening or loosening the suspension plate 63 via the support side plate 60, and the desired inclination angle can be maintained. Can do.
