(18) However, there will be parasitic capacitances Cp1, Cp2, Cp3 . . . when using the coil module in
(19)
(20) These parasitic currents will increase reactive power loss in the coil module and reduce charging efficiency. Therefore, the present application provides a coil module in which a plurality of coils are wound in series one above the other to increase the inductance value of the coil module, and at the meanwhile, the parasitic currents caused by the parasitic capacitances between the coils are effectively reduced by arranging an capacitance, which improves charging efficiency.
(21)
(22) In one embodiment, the first coil L1 and the second coil L2 have the same size and shape so that the magnetic field distribution is uniform.
(23) In one embodiment, the first coil L1 and the second coil L2 are disposed one above the other in a concentric manner so that the induced voltages at corresponding parts of the upper coil and the lower coils are approximately equal and the loss is reduced.
(24) The equivalent circuit diagram of the coil module 3 is as shown in
(25)
(26) The inductance value of the first coil L1 and the inductance value of the second coil L2 are configured as L1=L2=L/2. In order to eliminate voltage difference between the first coil L1 and the second coil L2, the capacitance value of the first capacitance C1 and the capacitance value of the second capacitance C2 are configured as C1=C2=2C. According to the equivalent circuit diagram shown in
(27)
(28) It can be known from the above equations that the voltage at the end A of the first coil L1 is consistently equal to the voltage at the end A1 of the second coil L2. The voltage at the end B of the first coil L1 is c consistently equal to the voltage at the end B1 of the second coil L2. It thus can be known that the voltage at each point of the first coil of the upper layer is consistent with the voltage at each corresponding point of the second coil L2 of the lower layer. Therefore, in the coil module 3, there is no voltage jump between the first coil L1 of the upper layer and the second coil L2 of the lower layer, which does not result in a circulating current, reduces the reactive power loss and improves power transmission efficiency.
(29) In one embodiment, the coil module 3 may further comprise a magnetic sheet disposed on a side of the first coil L1 or the second coil L2 to further increase the inductance value of the coil module.
(30) It should be understood that the coil and capacitance can be added to meet actual needs of power transmission when larger coupling inductance is needed, that is, a plurality of (greater than two) coils and capacitances are connected and arranged in a similar manner to the connection manner of the coil module shown in
(31)
(32)
(33) The inductance value of each of the N coils is Ln=L/N. In order to eliminate voltage difference between upper and lower layers of N coils, the capacitance value of each of the N1 first capacitances are configured as Ci=N*C, and the capacitance value of the second capacitance is configured as C2=N*C. In the coil module, at this time, the voltages at the end A0 and the end B0 of the first coil L1 and the voltages at the end A1 and the end B1 of the second coil L2 are:
(34)
(35) It can be known from the above equations that the voltage at each point of the first coil L1 is equal to the voltage at each corresponding point of the second coil L2 and there is no voltage difference. And it can be generalized that the voltage at the end An-1 of the n-th coil in the coil module is 0 and the voltage at the end Bn-1 of the n-th coil in the coil module is I.sub.p/jNC. Therefore, in the coil module having N coils, the voltage difference between every pair of corresponding points of the adjacent upper and lower coils is 0 and there is no voltage jump and no circulating current is caused. This makes it possible to reduce the reactive power loss while increasing the coupling inductance, which increases power transmission efficiency.
(36) It should be understood that in the coil module, two coils disposed adjacently one above the other may be connected adjacently in series at the time of circuit connection (herein, adjacently is used to describe the relationship between the coils and a capacitance is connected between adjacent coils in the circuit) and may not be connected adjacently in series. For example, when the first coil, the second coil and the third coil are sequentially overlapped one above the other, the circuit connection manner thereof may be that the first coil and the second coil are connected adjacently in series and the second coil and the third coil are connected adjacently in series. It is also possible that the first coil and the third coil are connected adjacently in series and the third coil and the second coil are connected adjacently in series.
(37) The parameters of the N coils in the coil module may be not identical. However, the voltage difference between the upper and lower layers of the coils is approximately zero by configuring the capacitance value of each capacitance according to the inductance value of each coil, which can achieve the effect of reducing the circulating current.
(38)
(39) In one embodiment, the first coil L1 and the second coil L2 have the same size and shape so that the magnetic field distribution is uniform.
(40) In one embodiment, the first coil L1 and the second coil L2 are disposed one above the other in a concentric manner so that the induced voltages at corresponding parts of the upper coil and the lower coils are approximately equal and the loss is reduced.
(41) The equivalent circuit diagram of the coil module 6 is as shown in
(42)
(43) The inductance value of the first coil L1 and the inductance value of the second coil L2 are configured as L1=L2=L/2. In order to eliminate voltage difference between the first coil L1 and the second coil L2, the capacitance value of the first capacitance C1 is configured as C1=2C, and the capacitance value of the second capacitance C2 and the capacitance value of the third capacitance C3 are configured as C2=C3=2C. According to the equivalent circuit diagram shown in
(44)
(45) It can be known from the above equations that the voltage at the end A of the first coil L1 is consistently equal to the voltage at the end A1 of the second coil L2. The voltage at the end B of the first coil L1 is consistently equal to the voltage at the end B1 of the second coil L2. It thus can be known that the voltage at each point of the first coil of the upper layer is consistent with the voltage at each corresponding point of the second coil L2 of the lower layer. Therefore, in the coil module 6, there is no voltage jump between the first coil L1 of the upper layer and the second coil L2 of the lower layer, which does not result in a circulating current, reduces the reactive power loss and improves power transmission efficiency. At the meanwhile, compared to the coil module 3, the maximum voltage value on each coil is reduced and thus reducing the risk of the capacitance being broken down by a high voltage.
(46) In one embodiment, the coil module 3 may further comprise a magnetic sheet disposed on a side of the first coil L1 or the second coil L2 to further increase the inductance value of the coil module.
(47) It should be understood that the coil and capacitance can be added to meet actual needs of power transmission when larger coupling inductance is needed, that is, a plurality of (greater than two) coils and capacitances are connected and arranged in a similar manner to the connection manner of the coil module shown in
(48)
(49)
(50) The inductance value of each of the N coils is Ln=L/N. In order to eliminate voltage difference between upper and lower layers of N coils, the capacitance value of each of the N1 first capacitances are configured as Ci=N*C, and the capacitance value of the second capacitance and the capacitance value of the third capacitance are configured as C2=C3=2N*C. In the coil module, at this time, the voltages at the end A0 and the end B0 of the first coil L1 and the voltages at the end A1 and the end B1 of the second coil L2 are:
(51)
(52) It can be known from the above equations that the voltage at each point of the first coil L1 is equal to the voltage at each corresponding point of the second coil L2 and there is no voltage difference. And it can be generalized that the voltage at the end An-1 of the n-th coil in the coil module is I.sub.p/j2NC and the voltage at the end Bn-1 of the n-th coil in the coil module isI.sub.p/j2NC. Therefore, in the coil module having N coils, the voltage difference between every pair of corresponding points of the adjacent upper and lower coils is 0 and there is no voltage jump and no circulating current is caused. This makes it possible to reduce the reactive power loss while increasing the coupling inductance, which increases power transmission efficiency. At the meanwhile, the maximum voltage value on each coil is smaller and thus reducing the risk of the capacitance being broken down by a high voltage.
(53) It should be understood that in the coil module, two coils disposed adjacently one above the other may be connected adjacently in series at the time of circuit connection (herein, adjacently is used to describe the relationship between the coils and a capacitance is connected between adjacent coils in the circuit) and may not be connected adjacently in series. For example, when the first coil, the second coil and the third coil are sequentially overlapped one above the other, the circuit connection manner thereof may be that the first coil and the second coil are connected adjacently in series and the second coil and the third coil are connected adjacently in series. It is also possible that the first coil and the third coil are connected adjacently in series and the third coil and the second coil are connected adjacently in series.
(54) The parameters of the N coils in the coil module may be not identical. However, the voltage difference between the upper and lower layers of the coils is approximately zero by configuring the capacitance value of each capacitance according to the inductance value of each coil, which can achieve the effect of reducing the circulating current.
