Abstract
An improved bulk wireless charger station may be constructed of a number of individual wireless charger modules. Each module may include an embedded wireless charger transmitter with the capability of wirelessly charging a device inserted into the module. The device may have the capability of being wirelessly charged via a wireless charging receiver in communication with the wireless charger transmitter. Charging the device may include charging a battery or other electrical storage element within the device, which, once charged, may power the device during use. The charger modules may be stackable horizontally and/or vertically to form the charger station. Each charger module may also include a power interface for receiving power from either a power base or other charger modules, and/or a communication interface for communicating with other charger modules and/or control station(s). The embedded wireless charger transmitter may be a transmitter coil controlled through a power conversion/control board.
