Non-contact charging module having a wireless charging coil and a magnetic sheet
View Patent ↗Provided is a non-contact charging module wherein adverse effects from magnets have been prevented even where magnets are used for positioning, power transmission efficiency has been improved, and the entire module has been made thin due to a state of improved power transmission efficiency. The non-contact charging module comprises a planar coil portion ( 2 ) of spirally wound conductive wiring, and a magnetic sheet ( 3 ) that is provided so as to oppose a surface of a coil ( 21 ) on the planar coil portion ( 2 ), and is characterized in that the magnetic sheet is layered with a first layer, and a second layer that has a lower magnetic permeability and a higher saturation magnetic flux density than the first layer.
1. A non-contact charging module comprising:
a wireless charging coil formed of an electrical wire wound to form a winding portion having a circular shape and two leg portions, wherein the electrical wire in the winding portion is wound in one layer, and the electrical wire is wound to define a hollow portion surrounded by the winding portion; and
a magnetic sheet overlapping the wireless charging coil and having a shape that does not coincide with the circular shape of the winding portion of the wireless charging coil;
wherein
a first height of the magnetic sheet in a thickness direction of the magnetic sheet is greater than a second height of the winding portion of the wireless charging coil;
the largest span of the hollow portion surrounded by the winding portion of the wireless charging coil is between 10 mm and 20 mm; and
the magnetic sheet includes a recess at a position corresponding to at least a portion of at least one of the leg portions.
2. The non-contact charging module according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic sheet includes a first layer and a second layer that has a lower magnetic permeability and a higher saturation magnetic flux density than the first layer, the first layer and the second layer being stacked in the magnetic sheet.
3. The non-contact charging module according to claim 2 , wherein the first layer is formed of a first ferrite sheet and the second layer is formed of a second ferrite sheet.
4. The non-contact charging module according to claim 3 , wherein a thickness of the second ferrite sheet is approximately three times a thickness of the first ferrite sheet in a stacking direction of the magnetic sheet.
5. The non-contact charging module according to claim 2 , wherein the first layer includes an amorphous material.
6. The non-contact charging module according to claim 1 , wherein the hollow portion has a circular shape and a diameter of the circular-shape hollow portion is between 10 mm and 20 mm.
7. The non-contact charging module according to claim 1 , wherein the largest span of the hollow portion is greater than 15.5 mm.
8. The non-contact charging module according to claim 1 , configured as a power transmission module.
9. The non-contact charging module according to claim 1 , configured as a power reception module.
