The winding includes a center section about which the winding is wound. The WPT pad includes a ferrite structure with a parallel section located on a side of the winding with at least a portion in parallel with the winding, and a chimney section in magnetic contact with the parallel section and located in the center section of the winding, the chimney section extending perpendicular to the parallel section.

A non-contact power reception apparatus is provided, in which a power reception coil for a charging system and a loop antenna for an electronic settlement system are mounted on a battery pack and a cover case of a portable terminal such that the power reception coil is arranged in the center thereof and the loop antenna is disposed outside the power reception coil, so that a mode of receiving a wireless power signal and a mode of transmitting and receiving data are selectively performed, thereby preventing interference from harmonic components and enabling non-contact charging and electronic settlement using a single portable terminal. A jig for fabricating a core to be mounted to the non-contact power reception apparatus is provided.

A coil device includes a coil part having a coil, a case accommodating the coil part, a coolant accommodated in the case, and a fluid volume adjusting part for supplying the coolant to the case or discharging the coolant from the case. The coil part floats on the coolant.

An upper end portion and a lower end portion of a second magnetic portion of a coil component are further away from a coil than when a third part and a fifth part are not present. For this reason, a magnetic flux is unlikely to be concentrated in the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the second magnetic portion, so that magnetic saturation is unlikely to occur. Therefore, improvement of direct current superimposition characteristics is realized in the coil component.

Disclosed herein is a coil component that includes an insulating substrate, a first coil part formed on the first surface of the insulating substrate, and a second coil part formed on the second surface of the insulating substrate. At least an innermost turn of the first coil part is radially separated by spiral-shaped slits into three or more conductor parts. At least an innermost turn of the second coil part is radially separated by spiral-shaped slits into three or more conductor parts. Inner peripheral ends of respective innermost to outermost conductor parts of the three or more conductor parts of the first coil part are connected to inner peripheral ends of the respective outermost to innermost conductor parts of the three or more conductor parts of the second coil part.

A high temperature superconducting, HTS, field coil. The HTS field coil comprises a plurality of turns and a partially insulating layer. The plurality of turns comprises HTS material and metallic stabilizer. The partially insulating layer separates the turns, such that current can be shared between turns via the partially insulating layer. The partially insulating layer comprises an electrically conducting layer, and first and second insulating layers. The electrically conducting layer is coated on one side with the first insulating layer and on the other side with the second insulating layer. Each insulating layer has one or more windows through which electrical contact can be made between the turns and the electrically conducting layer. The windows in the first insulating layer are offset in the plane of the electrically conducting strip from the windows in the second insulating layer.

The present invention provides a magnetic flux pad for generating or receiving magnetic flux, comprising at least three coils positioned such that the windings thereof are in substantially the same plane, and a power supply or pickup controller operable to selectively energise or receive power from two or more of the coils such that a magnetic field is produced or received by at least one of a plurality of pairs of the at least three coils. In preferred embodiments, the three or more coils are substantially mutually decoupled, overlapping, and/or equidistantly spaced from one another.

A coil arrangement with reduced core losses is provided. The coil arrangement has a first coil and a second coil and a ferrite layer below the coils. A perpendicular recess in the ferrite layer is provided to reduce magnetic flux density in a center conduction path.

A coil module is provided, including a second coil mechanism. The second coil mechanism includes a third coil assembly and a second base corresponding to the third coil assembly. The second base has a positioning assembly corresponding to a first coil mechanism.
