Connector for charging
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A connector for charging comprising:
- a power supply connector element having a primary coil to be connected to a charging power source and a first core; and
a vehicle connector element having a secondary coil to be connected to a battery mounted on a vehicle and a second core, said first and second cores constituting a magnetic circuit which passes through said primary and secondary coils, thereby allowing said battery to be charged by an electromotive power induced in said secondary coil, one of said first and second cores formed into an I-like section shape formed in the shape of a rectangular block, the cross-section of the I-like section shape comprising;
a first uninterrupted side face;
a second uninterrupted side face opposing the first uninterrupted side face;
an uninterrupted top face joining the side faces; and
an uninterrupted bottom face joining the side faces and opposing the uninterrupted top face,whereina region occupied by one of said first and second cores is smaller than a region occupied by the other of said first and second cores.

Abstract
A connector for charging includes: a power supply connector element having a primary coil to be connected to a charging power source and a first core; and a vehicle connector element having a secondary coil to be connected to a battery mounted on a vehicle and a second core, the first and second cores constituting a magnetic circuit which passes through the primary and secondary coils, thereby allowing the battery to be charged by an electromotive power induced in the secondary coil, wherein a region occupied by one of the first and second cores is smaller than a region occupied by the other of the first and second cores.

4. A connector for charging comprising:
-
a power supply connector element having a primary coil to be connected to a charging power source and a first core; and a vehicle connector element having a secondary coil to be connected to a battery mounted on a vehicle and a second core, said first and second cores constituting a magnetic circuit which passes through said primary and secondary coils, thereby allowing said battery to be charged by an electromotive power induced in said secondary coil, wherein a region occupied by one of said first and second cores is smaller than a region occupied by the other of said first and second cores; and one of said first and second cores has a substantially U-like section shape, said primary coil is attached within end portions of said one core, the other of said first and second cores has a substantially T-like section shape, said secondary coil is wound on a center projection of said other core, the primary and secondary coils each having a side laying in a respective plane and a center hole, a center line aligned to each of the center holes, and the side of each of the primary and secondary coils being perpendicular to the center line of each respective center hole, said sides of each of the primary and secondary coils being in contact with each other, and said magnetic circuit is configured so that said primary and secondary coils are concentrically arranged around said projection of said other core by causing said end portions of said one core having said substantially U-like section shape to be connected with end portions of said other core having said substantially T-like section shape and causing a tip end of said projection of said other core to be connected with said center portion of said one core. - View Dependent Claims (5)
