It is this difference in length between the first portion and the second portion that ensures an effective fl ux linkage is maintained for a range of displacements between a transmitting core and receiving core. This will be discussed in more detail in a later section.

  • the remainder of the description wil l refer to, and describe in more detail, the column (being the first portion), the cyl inder (being the second portion) and the disk.
  • those skil led in the art will appreciate that there are many other possible geometries that do not depart from the invention. For example:
  • the base may be another shape besides circular
  • the first portion may not be circular

  • the col umn and disk may be formed as a single piece and the cyl inder as another piece. Upon assembly, these pieces may be fixed together in some way (for example, by adhesive) or they may be held in proximal position by some other means.
  • Those skil led in the art wil l appreciate that having the core formed as a single piece wil l improve the inductance value of the core.
  • the core formed from separate pieces may simpl ify manufacture. Further, having a division between the pieces (even where those pieces are directly abutting) may prevent the onset of magnetic saturation in the core.
  • the component pieces i.e. the col umn, cyl inder and disk
  • the col umn may themselves consist of separate pieces.
  • the col umn may be segmented into a 'stack' of shorter col umns (not shown). This may also prevent the onset of magnetic saturation.
  • the col umn 3 and disk 2 may incl ude a channel 5. In the core shown in Figure 2, this channel consists of a hole 6 in the centre of the disk that al igns with a bore 7 that passes through the length of the col umn (i.e.
  • the col umn is hol lowed).
  • a channel may permit communication systems or similar to pass from one side of the core to the other.

Though this may obstruct communication systems, it may al low the col umn to be narrower, while having the same cross-sectional area as its hol lowed counterpart. It will be appreciated that such a channel may occupy space that could otherwise be fil led with magnetical ly permeable material. This effectively lessens the inductance val ue of the column, which may have to be compensated for in some way - for example, by making the col umn longer or wider.
  • the disk 2 may incl ude discontinuities in the form of openings 8 that al low access from one side of the disk to the space between the col umn 3 and the cyl inder 4. Such an opening may be provided to al low wire for the windings to enter and exit the 'inside' of the core 1 .
  • the openings may be holes that pass through the disk or they may be 'cut-outs' 8 (as shown in Figure 2) that extend to the edge of the disk 2. Where the disk and cyl inder 4 are formed together, the cut-outs may extend al l the way to the edge of the cyl inder (effectively creating a slot through the cylinder).
  • cut-outs may be preferable to holes as they el iminate an interfering fl ux path that would otherwise encircle the opening.
  • the slots reduce eddy currents induced by conductors passing through the slots to supply or receive power from the windings. Additional narrow slots may be provided to further inhibit eddy currents. Providing radiused terminations of the slots also reduces losses.
  • Such slots may be left open as air gaps or be fil led with non-metal l ic low permeabil ity (preferably close to air) insulating material.
  • Figure 3 shows a cross-section of the core 1 in a plane paral lel with the disk 2. It shows the disk, and a cross-section of the column 3 and the cylinder 4. The channel 5 and openings 8 discussed previously are also shown.
  • the cross- section shows that the thickness of the cyl inder and hol lowed col umn may be the same.
  • a magnetic field must pass through the cylinder and the column (via the disk).
  • a key consideration wil l be the relative cross-sectional areas, as the fl ux may be l imited by the total cross-sectional area of a particular part.
  • the cross-sectional area of the col umn 3 is the smal lest, and it is therefore this which may l imit the amount of magnetic fl ux that is able to be generated without the core overheating.
  • Figure 3 also shows that in this particular embodiment the core has a generally circular cross-section. This may be suitable where the core needs to be rotational ly symmetric.
  • Figure 4 shows a cross-section of the core 1 in a plane perpendicular to the disk 2. It shows the disk, cylinder 4 and column 3. It also shows how the channel 5 passes through the disk and the column. It is helpful to identify three volumes within the boundaries that are defined by the core:
  • each of these three volumes may be used to accommodate windings.
  • FIG. 5 shows a cross-section of a transmitter 9 and a receiver 10.
  • the transmitter and receiver are generally the same geometries, both including a magnetically permeable core 1 (as described above), windings 11, 12 and circuitry 13, 14.

  • the circuitry 14 will be receiver circuitry that is adapted to receive power from the windings 12, and to output power, that may subsequently be used to power a load or charge a battery 16.
  • the circuitry 14 will be receiver circuitry that is adapted to receive power from the windings 12, and to output power, that may subsequently be used to power a load or charge a battery 16.
  • the transmitter 9 and receiver 10 include the core 1 , 1 ', consisting of a column 3, 3', base 2, 2' and cylinder 4, 4'; and windings 1 1 , 12.
  • the windings consist of a length of wire, wound in a series of loops.
  • the windings are configured to occupy volume A, volume B and volume C within the core.
  • the number of loops will be related to the gauge of wire, the relative dimensions of the core and the power requirements for the transmitter or receiver.
  • Figure 6 shows one possible approach to winding. The winding begins with layer 1 , and then follows the order indicated by the numbers.
  • the windings may be wound on a bobbin 1 7, which can then be inserted into the core 1 .

  • the field lines may go directly from the receiver column 25' to the receiver cylinder 26' without passing through the bulk of the receiver core 22'. This behaviour is demonstrated by two of the field lines 28. Therefore, having a pot core in the receiver may not be as effective as the core of the present invention.
  • Figures 10a to 10i and Figures 11a to 11i show a range of fields for two transmitter and receiver pairs, over an array of relative displacements.
  • Figure 10a to 10i corresponds to the transmitter 9 and receiver 10 pair of Figure 9a
  • Figure 11a to 11 i corresponds to the transmitter 21 and receiver 10 pair of Figure 9b.
  • the core of the present invention enables an effective flux linkage to be maintained for a larger range of relative displacements between a receiving core and a transmitting core.
  • An effective flux linkage may be considered the flux linkage between a transmitter and receiver that is sufficient to transfer power. What is considered 'sufficient' will be dependent on the particular application, including:
  • the range of relative displacements is the range of relative displacement between the transmitting core and receiving core where there is stil l sufficient power transfer.
  • the lower bound for the range of relative displacements wil l be zero - that is to say, the case where the transmitting core and receiving core are mutual ly al igned with no separation between them.
  • the upper l imit of the range of relative displacements is dependent upon the characteristics of the particular transmitter and receiver pair. In particular, the upper l imit may be dependent on at least some of the fol lowing interrelated factors:
  • a transmitter and receiver pair wil l be designed with these factors considered, and they may be weighted differently depending on the priorities of the particular case. For example, where a transmitter must fit inside a certain vol ume, this wil l determine the vol ume of the core. Then the thickness of the parts of the core (and therefore, the core's inductance) will need to be balanced against the number of windings able to fit inside the core to ensure there is sufficient power transfer up to a tolerable upper l imit. In another example, the transmitter and receiver pair may be designed to ensure a large upper limit, which will require a larger core with a larger number of windings. These two examples demonstrate that the upper l imit of the range of the relative displacements is dependent on these factors and the required operating characteristics of the transmitter and receiver pair.
  • Figures 10a to 10i and Figures 1 1 a to 1 1 i demonstrate that for a core of fixed vol ume, the core of the present invention is an improvement, and provides a larger range of relative displacements.
  • Such shielding has two main benefits: • It minimises losses due to eddy currents arising in metal l ic components adjacent to the core and windings; and
  • Such a transmitter or receiver may be incorporated into a connector 29 as shown in Figure 1 2.
  • a connector may include a suitable cable 30 that l inks the end of the connector to further electronic components (not shown).
  • the connector may house al l or part of the circuitry 1 3, 14 for control l ing the transmitter 9 or receiver 1 0.
  • the connector may incl ude potting 31 to encase the core 1 and windings 1 1 . Potting ensures the core and windings are protected and potting also serves to draw away heat.
  • the transmitter and receiver may be adapted to accommodate communication systems that may be used to communicate from transmitter to receiver and vice versa.
  • Those skil led in the art wil l appreciate that there are any number of communication systems that are suitable for establ ishing such a data l ink, such as: optical systems, radio systems, near-field communication (NFC) systems, and systems that rely on modulating the signal appl ied to the windings.

  • Figure 1 3a shows the field in the core 1 of Figure 1 .
  • the field goes along the cyl inder 4, before spreading radial ly inwards in the disk, and then going along the col umn 3 and returning to the cyl inder.
  • the field passes around the cut-outs.
  • Figure 1 3b shows a similar core 34, but where the openings are holes 35.
  • both cores in Figure 1 3a and Figure 1 3b incl ude a central hole 6, 36.
  • the central hole does not cause interfering fl ux paths, since the hole is not in the path of the field.
  • the core can be said to incl ude openings, and if those openings are in the path of magnetic field, the openings should extend to an edge.
  • the disk 2 and cyl inder 4 are separate. If they were formed together, then the opening 8 would no longer be a cut-out but another hole (leading to the problems identified above). Therefore, the opening could be made to extend to the edge of the cylinder by including a slot 37 in the cylinder 4, as shown in Figure 13c. In this way, the opening would not provide an interfering flux path. The cylinder would then be segmented into two half cylinders.

The available winding area is also increased by the removal of the outer portions 1 and 1 '. Further the flux field pattern makes this design less sensitive to lateral offset between the transmitter and receiver cores.
