Apparatus and method of wirelessly sharing power by inductive method
First Claim
1. An apparatus for wirelessly sharing power, the apparatus comprising:
- a first battery which supplies power;
a rectifier which is supplied with an alternating current (AC) voltage, converts the AC voltage into a direct current (DC) voltage, and outputs the DC voltage;
an inverter which is supplied with the DC voltage, converts the DC voltage into the AC voltage, and outputs the AC voltage;
a power control and conversion unit which is connected to the rectifier or the inverter and supplying power to charge the first battery or a second battery that is provided in an external device as a power supply for the first battery; and
a first communication unit which communicates with the external device.

Abstract
An apparatus and method of wirelessly sharing power by an inductive method are provided. The apparatus includes a first battery supplying power; a rectifier supplied with an AC voltage, converts the AC voltage into a DC voltage, and outputs the DC voltage; an inverter supplied with the DC voltage, converts the DC voltage into the AC voltage, and outputs the AC voltage; a power control/conversion unit connected to the rectifier or the inverter and supplying power to charge the first battery or a second battery that is provided in an external device as a power supply for the first battery; and a communication unit communicating with the external device.
