First Claim
Patent Images
1. A remote control for wirelessly issuing commands to a remotely controllable device, comprising:
- a control unit for executing an assignment mode prior to startup of the remote control; and
a rechargeable battery for providing a power supply to the remote control, wherein the remote control is configured to be temporarily and removably fixed to a docking point arranged at the remotely controllable device;
the rechargeable battery is configured to be charged by the remotely controllable device via an inductive power interface when the remote control is fixed to the docking point; and
the docking point is configured to transmit information to the remote control, the information configured at least for triggering execution of the assignment mode on the remote control;
wherein the power interface comprises;
a first transformer part fixed-mounted to the remotely controllable device having at least one first coil; and
a second transformer part fixed-mounted to the remote control having at least one second coil, wherein the first and second transformer parts form a transformer when the remote control is docked at the docking point;
wherein the second coil is configured to carry an electrical load of a controllable impedance, the controllable impedance configured to be switched by a specific frequency.
