main control unit 21 of the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10 may include apower supply block 211 coupled with thepower supply unit 25 for the power supply to the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10; asignal output block 212 for sending the signal to show the status on adisplay panel 14; a gate outputsignal process block 213 coupled with a outputsignal conversion module 22 for transmitting the transferred power signal from theprimary charge core 13; a receivedsignal process block 214 for processing the transmitted signals from a receivedsignal process module 24 which processes the transmission signal from the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30; and amain controller 210 which controls thepower supply block 211, thesignal output block 212, the gate outputsignal process block 213, and the receivedsignal process block 214. - Furthermore, the wireless
power receiving apparatus 30 may include asecondary charge core 32 fronting theprimary charge core 13 of the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10 in order to receive the power signal via the resonant with the magnetic field; a received powersignal conversion module 33 connected with thesecondary charge core 32 for converting the received power signal; acharge circuit block 36 linked with the received powersignal conversion module 33 in order to charge thebattery cell 35; aprotection circuit block 37 formed between thecharge circuit block 36 and thebattery cell 35 for detecting the charged current into thebattery cell 35 and sending the charging status of thebattery cell 35 to the wirelessdevice control module 39; avoltage regulator block 38 for the power supply to the wirelessdevice control module 39; and a wirelessdevice control module 39 which controls the received powersignal conversion module 33, thecharge circuit block 36, theprotection circuit block 37, and thevoltage regulator block 38. - The wireless
power receiving apparatus 30 can be included inside the portable electronic devices, for example, cellular phones, PDAs, PMPs, DMB terminals, MP3s or notebook computers. - With the wireless power charging system A, the power signal can be transmitted to the
secondary charge core 32 of the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 by the resonance signals according to the electric field and magnetic field transferred from theprimary charge core 13 although the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 is several meters apart from the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10. - The
secondary charge core 32 of the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 collects the power signals, which are the resonant signals by the electric field and magnetic field, and can be made of the materials like titanium dioxide (TiO2, dielectric constant 96), barium tetratitanate (BaTi4O9, dielectric constant 37), and lithium tantalite (LiTaO3, dielectric constant 40). - For the
secondary charge core 32 corresponding to a power receiving antenna for the resonant signals, it is better to use the materials with the small loss according to the dielectric constant. - The wireless power charging system A with above-mentioned figures in accordance with the present invention is to transmit the power signal, as the resonant signal by the electric field and the magnetic field, to one or a plurality of wireless
power receiving apparatuses 30. It is an advantage that the charging operation is still possible despite the increased or decreased numbers of the wireless power receivingapparatuses 30, even though the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 30 is sending out the same amount of the resonant signals. - If there is no wireless
power receiving apparatus 30 in the near area; thepower receiving apparatus 30 is placed in close proximity and starts being charged for the first time; or a changed condition happens like one or a plurality of wireless power receivingapparatuses 30 are fully charged and charging is stopped, the wireless power charging system A needs to be designed to transfer these information to the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10 which operates properly in accordance with the received information. - As shown in
FIG. 4 , the wireless power charging system A will be changed to a standby mode stage S01, in which the charging operation will be stopped if there is no wireless power receivingapparatuses 30 near the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10. At the standby mode stage S01, this system is regularly sending out the pulse signal by the predetermined cycle and detects if any wireless power receivingapparatuses 30 are approaching within several meters. When any approaching wireless power receivingapparatuses 30 are detected within several meters, the system will start sending out the charging power. - Before sending out the charging power, the system will perform a motion detecting stage S02 at first to check if the approaching objects are properly working wireless
power receiving apparatuses 30. - In the standby mode stage S01, together with the pulse signal, the system will send out the signal asking for the unique ID data signal of the wireless
power receiving apparatus 30. Next step is to perform a unique ID recognition stage S03 to recognize if the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 is the proper one for the charging operation with the received signal from the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30. - When it is recognized as a properly working wireless
power receiving apparatus 30 with a properly recognized unique ID, the system will start working the charging operation in a power transmission stage S04. - During the power transmission stage S04, the system can send out a unique code as an initial signal. This unique code is to recognize the status of the charged power and the condition of the equipment for every wireless
power receiving apparatus 30 when a plurality of wirelesspower receiving apparatuses 30 are connected and being charged with the wireless power charging system A at the same time. The data value of the unique ID for each wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 can be changed to a code value and this code value can be used for sending/receiving data for the unique ID of the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 instead. - When a plurality of wireless
power receiving apparatuses 30 are connected and being charged at the same time, the system can be adapted to send out each status of the charged power and the condition of the equipment for every wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 and control the charging amount at each charging stage in a charge controlling stage S05. - When a wireless
power receiving apparatus 30 is fully charged according to the status of the charged power, the charging operation is controlled to stop working although the specific power signal for the wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 is received. - When all the wireless
power receiving apparatuses 30 are fully charged, a fully charged stage S06 will be performed to stop working the wirelesspower transmission apparatus 10. - Hence, the wireless power charging system A stops working the charging operation. The system is changed to the standby mode stage S01 and the wireless
power transmission apparatus 10 is continuously sending out the pulse signal to detect another wirelesspower receiving apparatus 30 to be charged. - While the present invention has been shown and described in connection with the preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
