Abstract

A battery pack rechargeable by a magnetic induction effect incorporates a secondary coil electromagnetically coupled to a primary coil of a battery charger and a secondary battery rechargeable by electric power induced to the secondary coil. The secondary battery is in a form of a thin battery having a larger width than a thickness, and two opposing surfaces of the secondary battery are composed of a first flat surface and a second flat surface. The secondary coil is in a form of a planar coil with a wire material being spirally coiled in the plane. In the battery pack, the secondary coil in the form of the planar coil is fixedly layered on the first flat surface of the thin battery.
