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 method includes aligning a first portion of a magnetic core with respect to a first side of a PCB using a first alignment device. The method includes applying a first bonding material to a surface of at least one of the first portion of the magnetic core and a second portion of the magnetic core. The method further includes coupling a second alignment device that retains the second portion of the magnetic core to the first alignment device. When the first alignment device and the second alignment device are coupled, the first portion and the second portion of the magnetic core are retained in a specified assembly position. The specified assembly position includes a specified gap between the first portion and the second portion of the magnetic core. The method also includes curing the first bonding material.

An electrical terminal applicator system includes a die connected to a press. A one-piece member including a stock guide portion is homogeneously connected to a tool receiving portion. The one-piece member is releasably secured to the die using a first fastener. A male member extends from the one-piece member, and a female slot is created in the die slidably receiving the male member to permit the one-piece member to be horizontally positioned on the die prior to securing the one-piece member using the single fastener. A tool assembly having a tool mount block is movable to a desired position. The tool assembly is releasably secured to the tool receiving portion using a second fastener after positioning the tool assembly in the desired position.

A pulling head work station for attaching the lugs of pulling heads to cables, so that the cables may be pulled simultaneously through a conduit. The pulling head work station includes staggered cable receiving jigs, each jig having two clamps to hold a corresponding cable in place during attachment of a pulling lug. A chop saw to cut the cables and a crimper to secure a pulling lug to each stripped end portion of a cable may be slidably mounted to a work surface of the work station. A wire stripper may be removably attached to the work station.

When plate-shaped components are inserted in the correct order and orientation into component insertion grooves of a component assembly jig, the component insertion grooves are blocked by the plate-shaped components, and the blowing of compressed air is stopped. When the blowing of compressed air from the component insertion grooves is stopped, the pressure in a compressed-air path increases, and an alignment-complete lamp is illuminated. Using the component assembly jig enables an assembly operation for overlapping the plurality of plate-shaped components in the correct order and orientation, without excess or deficiency, to be efficiently performed without error.

New systems, methods and media for simultaneous energy and data transfer are provided. In some aspects of the invention, an energy and data receiver is provided, which may be used to receive data and energy simultaneously. Energy transfer media, which may be transmitted and received by such a receiver unit, are also provided.

New electrochemical battery recharging, refurbishment and replacement techniques are also provided. In some aspects of the invention, small, fungible battery elements with external contacts may be delivered to a tank comprising contacts. The cells may be delivered to the tank bridging contacts within the tank, powering an appliance. Density differentials, maneuvering protocols and variable contacts between the elements may aid in placing them in selected circuit orders, and in removing them.

An inverter manufacturing equipment to prevent soldering defects and damage to elements, wherein an inverter includes a first dummy plate fixed to a frame of an inverter having a circuit board on which a plurality of elements are mounted and the frame coupled to the circuit board, wherein the frame includes a support plate, a side plate projecting from the support plate toward the circuit board, an array plate on which switching elements connected to the circuit board are arranged, and a connection bar connecting the support plate and the array plate.

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.
