WIRELESS CHARGING MATS WITH MULTI-LAYER TRANSMITTER COIL ARRANGEMENTS
First Claim
1. A wireless charging device comprising:
- a housing having an outer perimeter and a charging surface within the outer perimeter, the housing including a first wall and a second wall that define an interior cavity; and
a transmitter coil arrangement disposed within the interior cavity and below the planar charging surface, the transmitter coil arrangement comprising;
a plurality of transmitter coils arranged in different layers, each transmitter coil having a first termination end, a second termination end, and a coil of wire that winds from an inner diameter to an outer diameter between the first and second termination ends;
wherein the first termination end of each transmitter coil is disposed within the inner diameter of its respective coil of wire and the second termination end of each transmitter coil is disposed outside the outer diameter of its respective coil of wire.
