Abstract
The primary windings and part of the magnetic circuit of an automobile battery charging transformer are mounted in a separable multiple panel inductive charge coupler which is insertable into and removable from corresponding inductive charge receptacle slots in the automobile adjacent the transformer secondary windings and magnetic structure. The use of thin primary and secondary coils decreases the resistance losses in the coils. When the inductive charge coupler is in place and is energized, the primary winding energizes the secondary winding to permit charging of the batteries on the automobile.
