Abstract

A medical computer cart is equipped with an inductive receiver coil. The inductive receiver coil may, for example, be associated with a power management system adapted to use electrical power induced in the receiver coil to charge one or more batteries and/or provide power for operation of the medical computer cart. A charging station has an inductive charging transmitter coil corresponding to the inductive charging receiver coil in the medical computer cart. The inductive receiver coil may, alternatively, provide power for operation of the medical computer cart without the use of batteries.
