CLADDING ELEMENT WITH AN INTEGRATED RECEPTION UNIT FOR THE CONTACTLESS TRANSFER OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF
First Claim
1. A cover element comprising:
- a cover element portion;
a receiving unit integrated in said cover element portion;
a receiver coil for the contactless transmission of electric power, the receiver coil being contained in said receiving unit; and
a plurality of flux-conducting elements associated with the receiver coil and intended to concentrate a field intensity, and which are formed of a material having high permeability compared to that of air, wherein;
the cover element portion is manufactured from a fiber-reinforced plastic;
the receiving unit comprises a prefabricated basic body for positioning the flux-conducting elements and the receiver coil; and
the receiving unit as a whole is embedded in the fiber-reinforced plastic.

Abstract
A cladding (cover) element (32) includes a reception unit which is integrated therein. The reception unit contains a receiving coil (10) for the contactless transfer of electric energy and a plurality of flux-conducting elements (15a, 15b; 16a, 16b) that are associated with the receiving coil (10) for concentrating the field strength. The cover element (32) is made of a fiber-reinforced plastic. The flux-conducting elements (15a, 15b; 16a, 16b) and the receiving coil (10) are arranged in a base body (18) that is used to position the elements and coil and are embedded with the base body (18) in the cladding element (32). A process is also provided for producing the cladding element (32).
