Abstract
A system for wirelessly charging an electrical energy storage device such as an electrochemical cell or battery pack is described. The system comprises a transmitting base unit having a charging tray that is capable of wirelessly transmitting electrical power received from an external electrical energy source. In addition, the system comprises an electrical energy capture assembly that is electrically incorporatable with an energy storage device. The energy capture assembly comprises a receiving coil that is electrically connected to various sub-circuits that condition and modify the wirelessly received electrical energy so that it re-charges the energy storage device. The system is primarily designed to be used with electrical power that is wirelessly transmitted by near field magnetic induction. The circuitry of the system is designed to accommodate for fluctuations in magnitude of wirelessly transmitted electrical power. In addition, system is designed to optimally utilize wireless near field magnetic induction electrical power.
