[0003 ] However, the conventional electromagnetic induction apparatus is disadvantageous because of: (i) lower loading capacity; and (ii) lower efficiency. Therefore, there remains a need for a new and improved design for an electromagnetic induction apparatus for power transfer to overcome the problems presented above.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0004] The present invention provides an electromagnetic induction apparatus, which comprises a first portion and a second portion.
The first portion has a first shell, and a central magnetic core is formed inside of the first shell. Also, at least one loop of central coil is formed on the central magnetic core. The second portion comprises a second shell, and a toroidal magnetic core is formed inside of the second shell. Moreover, at least one loop of toroidal coil is formed on the toroidal magnetic core. When the first portion is inserted into the second portion, the toroidal coil is located around an outside periphery of the central coil. The toroidal magnetic core comprises a magnetic sleeve, and the toroidal coil is secured inside of the magnetic sleeve. Also, each of two lateral sides of the toroidal coil has a magnetic ring. Furthermore, the first portion comprises a first induction coil and a second induction coil, which are configured to cooperate with the central coil. The central coil is electrically connected to a power input through a switching circuit, and also the first induction coil and the second induction coil are electrically connected to a control portion or a positive feedback activated portion of the switching circuit.
[0005] In the present invention, the central coil is referred to a primary coil, and the toroidal coil is referred to a secondary coil. When the first portion is inserted into the second portion, the toroidal coil is located around an outside periphery of the central coil. In this structure, a coupling coefficient between the primary coil and the secondary coil is maximized, and also the coupling coefficient is a relative constant. Since the primary coil and the secondary coil are mutual inductance on the same magnetic core, the coupling coefficient is irrelative to both the magnetic flux and the magnetic permeability of an iron core (the iron core is the central magnetic core before passing through by current). The magnetic-feedback effects caused by the iron core only determines the inductances of the primary coil and the secondary coil. Thus, the primary coil and the secondary coil are mutual inductance on central magnetic core as long as a driving frequency or a pulse duration is matched with the inductances of the primary coil and the secondary coil. Also, a gap between the central magnetic core and the toroidal magnetic core will not affect the power transmitted rate, power transmitted efficiency. Comparing with the conventional electromagnetic induction apparatus, the electromagnetic induction efficiency is improved, leading to enhancing more than 50% of the power transmitted rate.
[0006] In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the present invention comprises an electromagnetic induction lamp for power transfer comprising a charger base and a lighting device; wherein the charger base comprising a charger housing, an electromagnetic rod formed inside of the charger housing, and at least one loop of sensing coil winded on the electromagnetic rod; and the lighting device comprising a lighting housing, a toroidal magnetic core formed inside of the lighting housing, and at least one loop of lighting coil winded on the toroidal magnetic core; wherein the sensing coil and the lighting coil are mutual inductance on a same magnetic core.

[0017] In order to further understand the goal, characteristics and effect of the present invention, a number of embodiments along with the drawings are illustrated as following:
[0018] Referring to FIGs. 1 to 4, the present invention provides an electromagnetic induction apparatus, which comprises a first portion (1) and a second portion (2). The first portion (1) has a first shell (3), and a central magnetic core (4) is formed inside of the first shell (3). Also, at least one loop of central coil (LI) is formed on the central magnetic core (4). The second portion (2) comprises a second shell (10), and a toroidal magnetic core is formed inside of the second shell (10). Moreover, at least one loop of toroidal coil (L4) is formed on the toroidal magnetic core. In the present invention, the central coil (LI) is referred to a primary coil, and the toroidal coil (L4) is referred to a secondary coil. When the first portion (1) is inserted into the second portion (2), the toroidal coil (L4) is located around an outside periphery of the central coil (LI). Thus, the primary coil and the secondary coil are inductively coupling on the same magnetic core. The toroidal magnetic core comprises a magnetic sleeve (14), and the toroidal coil (L4) is secured inside of the magnetic sleeve (14). Also, each of two lateral sides of the toroidal coil (L4) has a magnetic ring (13). Furthermore, the first portion comprises a first induction coil (L2) and a second induction coil (L3), which are configured to cooperate with the central coil (LI). In the present invention, the first induction coil (L2) is a first feedback coil (L2), and the second induction coil (L3) is a second feedback coil (L3). The central coil (LI) is electrically connected to a power input through a switching circuit, and also the first induction coil (L2) and the second induction coil (L3) are electrically connected to a control portion or a positive feedback activated portion of the switching circuit.
[0019] Referring to FIG. 1, the central magnetic core (4) formed inside of the first shell (3) is shaped into a column, and two loop slots formed at different sections of the central magnetic core (4) are configured to be winded by the central coil (LI) and the first and second induction coil (L2)(L3). Also, the first portion (1) comprises a switching circuit conversion board (6) formed inside of the first shell (3), and the central coil (LI) and the first and second induction coil (L2)(L3) are electrically connected to the switching circuit conversion board (6) through a coil leading wire (7). Moreover, the switching circuit conversion board (6) is electrically connected to a power input wire (8). Thus, the electric power from the power input wire (8) passes through the switching circuit conversion board (6), and is transformed into a higher frequency current to drive the toroidal coil (L4) on the second portion (2). Therefore, relative alternating magnetic fields are generated between the central magnetic core (4) and the toroidal magnetic core, and the first and second induction coil (L2)(L3) are configured as excitation signals of the self-excited oscillation or the feedback control on the switching circuit conversion board (6). Also, each of inside spaces of the first shell (3) and the second shell (10) are infilled with the resin to achieve the effect of waterproof.
[0020] Referring to FIG. 2, the second portion comprises the toroidal magnetic core formed inside of the second shell (10), and the toroidal coil (L4) is winded on the toroidal magnetic core. A socket (11) formed on the second shell (10) is configured to receive the first portion (1). An outer periphery of the socket (11) has a toroidal coil skeleton (15), and the toroidal coil (L4) is winded thereon. Each of the two lateral side of the toroidal coil (L4) comprises the magnetic ring (13), and the magnetic sleeve (14) is covered around outside peripheries of the toroidal coil (L4) and the magnetic rings (13). A power outlet wire (16) passes through a rectifier filter circuit to electrically connect to the toroidal coil (L4), and the space inside of the second shell (10) is infilled with the resin to achieve the effect of waterproof. The alternating magnetic field provided from the first portion (1) induces an electric potential on the toroidal coil (L4) which is referred as the secondary coil. Then, the induced electric potential is filtered and rectified, and passes out of the second portion (2) through the power output wire (16).
[0021 ] Referring to FIG. 3, when the first portion (1) is inserted into the second portion (2), the electric energy is transmitted from the first portion (1) to the second portion (2) through the magnetic induction. The electric energy from the power input wire (8) passes through the central coil (LI) of the first portion (1), which is referred to the primary coil of the transformer equivalent circuit, and then the electric energy induces the central coil (LI) to generate the magnetic energy. The induced magnetic energy induces the toroidal coil (L4) of the second portion (2), referred to the secondary coil, to transform into the electric energy on the second portion (2). In transformed process mentioned above, the electric energy consumed by an electrical load is equal to the magnetic energy consumed by the toroidal coil (L4), so that the magnetic coupling and the magnetic leakage occurred between the central coil (LI) and the toroidal coil (L4) are much important for the power transmitted rate and power transmitted efficiency. When the first portion (1) is inserted into the second portion (2), the secondary coil is located around the outside periphery of the primary coil (as shown in FIG. 3). Thus, the primary coil and the secondary coil are inductively coupling on the central magnetic core (4). In this structure, a coupling coefficient between the primary coil and the secondary coil is maximized, and also the coupling coefficient is a relative constant (the structure also can be that the primary coil is located around an outside periphery of the secondary coil). Since the primary coil and the secondary coil are mutual inductance on the same magnetic core (the central magnetic core (4)), the coupling coefficient is irrelative to both the magnetic flux and the magnetic permeability of an iron core (the iron core is the central magnetic core (4) before passing through by current). The magnetic-feedback effects caused by the iron core only determines the inductances of the primary coil and the secondary coil. Thus, the primary coil and the secondary coil are mutual inductance on central magnetic core (4) as long as a driving frequency or a pulse duration is matched with the inductances of the primary coil and the secondary coil. Also, a gap between the central magnetic core (4) and the toroidal magnetic core will not affect the power transmitted rate, power transmitted efficiency and the magnetic circuit generated between the first portion (1) and the second portion (2).
[0022] Because of the present invention comprising the first shell (3) of the first portion (1) and the second shell (10) of the second portion (2), both of a distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil, and a distance between the central magnetic core (4) and the toroidal magnetic core are increased, leading to increasing the magnetic leakage occurred between the primary coil and the secondary coil, and a magnetic resistance between the central magnetic core and toroidal magnetic core. Therefore, the present invention provides following improvements to overcome the problems presented above.
[0023 ] The present invention provides the magnetic sleeve (14), the magnetic rings (13), and the central magnetic core (4) to prevent the electromagnetic induction apparatus from the occurrence of magnetic leakage. The central magnetic core (4) served as a center is combined with the magnetic rings (13) and the magnetic sleeve (14), which are served as magnetic loops, and the magnetic circuit generated between the central magnetic core (4), magnetic rings (13) and the magnetic sleeve (14) is able to overcome the magnetic leakage occurred between the primary coil and the secondary coil. Moreover, the present invention increases areas of the magnetic coupling by extending axial lengths of the magnetic rings and axial lengths of six protruding portions from both lateral sides of the central magnetic core, resulting in lowering the magnetic resistance generated from the gap between the central magnetic core (4) and the toroidal magnetic core and increasing the magnetic flux of the magnetic circuit. Since the magnetic circuit is evenly distributed on an axial circumference of the magnetic sleeve (4), a wall of the magnetic sleeve (4) is thinner, leading to reducing the volume of an outlet. Further, by increasing the driving frequency properly, the present invention can improve the magnetic coupling and achieve the inductance need, leading to increasing the electrical load. In one embodiment, the thickness of each of the first shell (4) and the second shell (10) is approximately 1mm, and thus a distance between the central coil (LI) of the first portion (1) and the toroidal coil (L4) of the second portion (2) is 2-3mm. Also, a diameter of the central magnetic core (4) is 14-18mm, and each of a depth and a length of the loop slot for the central coil (LI) is 3-5mm and 8-12mm respectively. An axial length of the toroidal coil (L4) is 20-24mm, and an axial length of each of the magnetic rings is 8-12mm. Moreover, axial length of each of two ends of the central magnetic core is 8-12mm, and a thickness of each of a wall of the magnetic rings is 3-5mm while a thickness of the wall of the magnetic sleeve is l-3mm. When the electromagnetic induction apparatus is applied with above dimensions, the power transmitted rate between the first portion (1) (referred as a plug) and the second portion (2) (referred as an outlet) is able to reach over 25 watts.
[0024] Referring to FIG. 4, Even when the first portion (1) is disconnected from the second portion (2), the power input is still transmitted into the first portion (1), resulting in waste of energy and magnetic pollution. To avoid the circumstance mentioned above, the present invention provides feedback coils which is cooperated with the central coil (LI) (primary coil) in the first portion (1). The feedback coils comprise a first feedback coil (L2) and a second feedback coil (L3). Each of the first feedback coil (L2) and the second feedback coil (L3) is electrically connected to a first control portion of the switching circuit and a second control portion of the switching circuit respectively. The power input is electrically connected to an input end of a rectifier circuit, and an output end of a rectifier circuit passes through the first control portion and the second control portion to electrically connect to the central coil (LI).
[0025] When the first portion (1) is inserted into the second portion (2), the magnetic loop is formed between the central magnetic core (4) and the toroidal magnetic core. Also, the primary coil (LI), the secondary coil (L4), the first feedback coil (L2) and the second feedback coil (L3) are in the same magnetic loop. When the electric energy passes through the primary coil (LI), the secondary coil (L4) is electromagnetically induced, leading to the electric energy passing from the first portion (1) to the second portion (2). Meanwhile, the first feedback coil (L2) and the second feedback coil (L3) are induced to generate electric potential which induces the switching circuit to achieve on/off operation or to generate oscillation, leading to the current continuing to pass through the primary coil (LI) (as shown in FIG. 4).
[0026] In actual application, the present invention comprises a first switching circuit and a second switching circuit which are a first transistor (Tl) and a second transistor (T2) respectively. A first end of the first feedback coil (L2) is connected to a first emitter of the first transistor (Tl), and a second end thereof is electrically connected to a first base of the first transistor (Tl), and a first capacitor and a first resistor are electrically connected between the second end of the first feedback coil (L2) and the first base of the first transistor (Tl). A first end of the second feedback coil (L3) is connected to a second emitter of the second transistor (T2), and a second end thereof is electrically connected to a second base of the second transistor (T2), and a second capacitor and a second resistor are electrically connected between the second end of the second feedback coil (L3) and the second base of the second transistor (T2). A first end of the rectifier circuit is electrically connected to the first emitter of the first transistor (Tl), and a first connector of the first transistor (Tl) is electrically connected to the second emitter of the second transistor (T2). Also, a second end of the rectifier circuit is electrically connected to a second connector of the second transistor (T2). A first end of the central coil (LI) is electrically connected to the first connector of the first transistor (Tl), and a second end thereof is electrically connected to the first capacitor, the second capacitor and two output ends of the rectifier circuit.
[0027] In one embodiment, because of the power input is electrically connected to the first portion (1), the primary coil, the first feedback coil, and the second feedback coil are located in the first portion (1), and the secondary coil is located in the second portion (2). On the other hand, when the power input is electrically connected to the second portion (2), the primary coil, the first feedback coil, and the second feedback coil are located in the second portion (2), and the secondary coil is located in the first portion (1)·
[0028] Referring to FIGs. 5 and 6, the present invention discloses an electromagnetic inductance lamp which comprises a charger base (1A) and a lighting device (2A), wherein the charger base (1A) is embodied as the first portion (1), and the lighting device (2A) is embodied as the second portion (2). The charger base (1A) comprises a charger housing (3A) which is equivalent to a first shell (3) of the first portion (1), and an electromagnetic rod (4A) embodied as the central magnetic core (4) formed inside of the charger housing (3A). Also, at least one loop of sensing coil (L1A) is formed on the electromagnetic rod (4A). The lighting device (2 A) comprises a lighting housing (10A), and a toroidal magnetic core (12) formed inside the lighting housing (10A). Moreover, at least one loop of lighting coil (L4A) is formed on the toroidal magnetic core (12). In the present invention, the sensing coil (L1A) is embodied as the central coil (LI), and lighting coil (L4A) is embodied as the toroidal coil (L4).
[0029] Accordingly, the lighting device (2 A) further comprises a socket (11 A) formed inside the lighting housing (10 A) and configured to receive the electromagnetic rod (4A) of the charger base (1A), and then the electromagnetic rod (4A) and the toroidal magnetic core (12) are cooperated with each other in a concave-convex manner. When the lighting device (2A) is cooperated with the charger base (1A), the lighting coil (L4A) is located around an outside periphery of the sensing coil (L1A). In other words, the electromagnetic rod (4 A) is inserted into the socket (11 A) of the lighting device (2A). Thus, the sensing coil (L1A) and the lighting coil (L4A) are inductively coupling on the same magnetic core. The toroidal magnetic core (12) comprises a protection sleeve (14A), and the lighting coil (L4A) is secured and protected inside of the protection sleeve (14A). Also, each of two lateral sides of the lighting coil (L4A) has a ring body (13A). [0030] Furthermore, the charger base (1A) further comprises a first induction coil (L2A) and a second induction coil (L3A), which are configured to cooperate with the sensing coil (L1A). The sensing coil (L1A) is electrically connected to a power source through a switching circuit (17), and also the first induction coil (L2A) and the second induction coil (L3A) are electrically connected to a control portion or a positive feedback activated portion of the switching circuit (17).
[ 0031 ] Referring to FIG. 6, the electromagnetic rod ( A) is formed inside of the charger housing (3A), and two loop slots formed at different sections of the electromagnetic rod (4A) are configured to be winded by the sensing coil (L1A) and the first and second induction coil (L2A)(L3A). Also, the charger base (1A) comprises a switching circuit conversion board (6A) formed inside of the charger housing (3A), and the sensing coil (L1A) and the first and second induction coil (L2A)(L3A) are electrically connected to the switching circuit conversion board (6 A) through a coil leading wire (7A). Moreover, the switching circuit conversion board (6A) is electrically connected to a power input wire (8A). Thus, the power source is transmitted from the power input wire (8A) and is passed through the switching circuit conversion board (6A), and is transformed into a higher frequency current to drive the lighting coil (L4A) on the lighting device (2A). Therefore, relative alternating magnetic fields are generated between the electromagnetic rod (4A) and the toroidal magnetic core (12), and the first and second induction coil (L2A)(L3A) are configured as excitation signals of the self-excited oscillation or the feedback control on the switching circuit conversion board (6A). Also, each of inside spaces of the charger housing (3A) and the lighting housing (10A) are infilled with the resin to achieve the effect of waterproof.
[0032] Accordingly, the lighting coil (L4A) is winded on the toroidal magnetic core (12). An outer periphery of the socket (HA) has a toroidal coil skeleton (15A), and the lighting coil (L4A) is winded thereon. Each of the two lateral side of the lighting coil (L4A) comprises the ring body (13A), and the protection sleeve (14A) is covered around outside peripheries of the lighting coil (L4A) and the ring bodies (13A).
[0033 ] Furthermore, the lighting device (2 A) further comprises a illumination member (20), a rectifier filter circuit (19) electrically connected to the illumination member (20), and a power outlet wire (16A) electrically connect to the lighting coil (L4A) and the rectifier filter circuit (19). The alternating magnetic field provided from the charger base (1A) induces an electric potential on the lighting coil (L4A). Then, the induced electric potential is filtered and rectified, and passes out of the toroidal magnetic core (12) through the power outlet wire (16A) to the illumination member (20), and then the illumination member (20) can be powered on to provide illuminating lights.
[0034] Referring to FIG. 7 of the drawings, when the electromagnetic rod (4 A) is inserted into the socket (11 A), the electric energy is transmitted from the charger base (1A) to the lighting device (2A) through the magnetic induction. The electric energy from the power input wire (8A) passes through the sensing coil (L1A) of the charger base (1A), and then the sensing coil (L1A) is induced to generate the magnetic energy by the electric energy. The induced magnetic energy induced from the lighting coil (L4A) of the lighting device (2A) is transformed into the electric energy for the lighting device (2A), so as to power on the illumination member (20). In transformed process mentioned above, the electric energy consumed by an electrical load is equal to the magnetic energy consumed by the lighting coil (LA4), so that the magnetic coupling and the magnetic leakage occurred between the sensing coil (LI A) and the lighting coil (LA4) are very important for the power transmitted rate and power transmitted efficiency.
[0035] As shown in FIG. 7, the sensing coil (LI A) and the lighting coil (LA4) are inductively coupling on the electromagnetic rod (4A). In this structure, a coupling coefficient between the sensing coil (L1A) and the lighting coil (LA4) is maximized, and also the coupling coefficient is a relative constant (the structure also can be that the sensing coil (L1A) is located around an outside periphery of the lighting coil(LA4)). Since the sensing coil (L1A) and the lighting coil (LA4) are mutual inductance on the same magnetic core (the electromagnetic rod (4A)), the coupling coefficient is irrelative to both the magnetic flux and the magnetic permeability of an iron rod (the electromagnetic rod (4A) is the iron rod before the current passing therethrough). The magnetic-feedback effects caused by the iron rod is determined by the inductances of the sensing coil (LAI) and the lighting coil (LA4). Thus, the sensing coil (LAI) and the lighting coil (LA4) are mutual inductance on the electromagnetic rod (4A) as long as that a driving frequency or a pulse duration is matched with the inductances of the sensing coil (LAI) and the lighting coil (LA4). Also, a gap between the electromagnetic rod (4A) and the toroidal magnetic core (12) will not affect the power transmitted rate, power transmitted efficiency and the magnetic circuit generated between the charger base (1A) and the lighting device (2A).
[0036] Since the sensing coil (LAI) is deposed inside the charger housing (3A) and the lighting coil (LA4) is deposed inside the lighting housing (10A), a distance between the sensing coil (LAI) and the lighting coil (LA4) is increased. In other words, a distance between the electromagnetic rod (4A) and the toroidal magnetic core (12) is increased also, so the magnetic leakage occurred between the lighting coil (LA4) and the sensing coil (LAI) is relatively increased, and a magnetic resistance between the electromagnetic rod (4A) and toroidal magnetic core (12) is relatively increased also. Therefore, the present invention provides following improvements to overcome the problems presented above.
[0037] The protection sleeve (14 A), the ring bodies (13 A), and the electromagnetic rod (4A) are adapted to prevent the magnetic leakage happened in the electromagnetic inductance lamp. The electromagnetic rod (4A) served as a center is cooperated with the rings bodies (13A) and the protection sleeve (14A), which are served as magnetic loops, and the magnetic circuit generated between the electromagnetic rod (4A), ring bodies (13) and the protection sleeve (14) is able to overcome the magnetic leakage occurred between the sensing coil (LAI) and the lighting coil (LA4). Moreover, the magnetic resistance generated between the electromagnetic rod (4A) and the toroidal magnetic core (12) is reduced by areas of the magnetic coupling which is determined by extending axial lengths of the magnetic rings and axial lengths of six protruding portions from both lateral sides of the electromagnetic rod (4A), and the magnetic flux of the magnetic circuit is increased also. Since the magnetic circuit is evenly distributed on an axial circumference of the protection sleeve (4A), a thickness of the magnetic sleeve (4 A) is thinner in order to reduce the volume of the lighting device (2A). Further, in order to properly increase the driving frequency, the magnetic coupling can be improved to achieve the inductance needs, and then the electrical load is relatively increased. Preferably, the thickness of both the charger housing (3A) and the lighting housing (10A) is approximately 1mm, and a distance between the sensing coil (L1A) of the charger base (1A) and the lighting coil (L4A) of the lighting device (2A) is 2-3mm. Also, a diameter of the electromagnetic rod (4A) is 14-18mm, and depths and lengths of the loop slots for the sensing coil (L1A) is 3-5mm and 8-12mm respectively. An axial length of the lighting coil (L4A) is 20-24mm, and an axial length of each of the ring bodies (13A) is 8-12mm. Moreover, axial length of each of two ends of the electromagnetic rod (4A) is 8-12mm, and a thickness of each of the ring bodies (13A) is 3-5mm while a thickness of the protection sleeve is l-3mm. When the electromagnetic induction lamp is applied with above dimensions, the power transmitted rate between the charger base (1A) and the lighting device (2A) is able to reach over 25 watts.
[0038] Furthermore, when the charger base (1A) is disengaged with the lighting device (2A) as long as that the power input wire (8A) is connected to the power source, the power source is still transmitted into the charger base (1A), and as a result, magnetic pollutions and energy-wasting problems are always happened. To avoid the problems mentioned above, the first induction coil (L2A) and the second induction coil (L3A) are electrically connected to a first control portion of the switching circuit (17) and a second control portion of the switching circuit (17) respectively. The power source is electrically connected to an input end of a rectifier circuit (21), and an output end of a rectifier circuit (21) passes through the first control portion and the second control portion to electrically connect to the sensing coil (L1A).
[0039] When the electromagnetic rod (4 A) is inserted into the socket (11 A) of the lighting device (2 A), the magnetic loop is formed between the electromagnetic rod (4A) and the toroidal magnetic core (12). Also, the sensing coil (L1A), the lighting coil (L4A), the first induction coil (L2A) and the second induction coil (L3A) are in the same magnetic loop. When the electric energy is passed through the sensing coil (L1A), the lighting coil (L4) is electromagnetically induced, so that the electric energy is passed from the charger base (1A) to the lighting device (2A). Meanwhile, the first induction coil (L2A) and the second induction coil (L3A) are induced to generate electric potential, and then the switching circuit (17) can be activated to achieve on/off operation of the electromagnetic induction lamp, or to generate oscillation. In addition, the electric energy can be continuously passed through the sensing coil (L1A) to the lighting coil (L4A).
[0040] Having described the invention by the description and illustrations above, it should be understood that these are exemplary of the invention and are not to be considered as limiting. Accordingly, the invention is not to be considered as limited by the foregoing description, but includes any equivalents.
