Abstract

A wireless charging Faraday container can include a container formed of a conductive material defining a cavity for protective storage of an electronic device; a wireless power transmitter positioned outside of the cavity; and a wireless power receiver positioned within the cavity and in wireless electrical communication with the transmitter. The transmitter is configured to convert received electrical current to wireless energy and to transmit the wireless energy through the container to the receiver, and the receiver is configured to receive and convert the wireless energy to electricity and to provide the electricity to the at least one electronic device.

Claims (12)

1. A wireless charging Faraday container, comprising:

a Faraday container formed of a conductive material defining a cavity therein, said container having a sealable opening having an open state that exposes the cavity for placement of an electronic device within the cavity, and a closed state that seals the electronic device within the cavity;

a wireless power transmitter positioned outside the cavity, said transmitter being configured to receive electrical current from a power source; and

a wireless power receiver positioned within the cavity and in wireless electrical communication with said transmitter;

wherein said transmitter is configured to convert the received electrical current to wireless energy and to transmit the wireless energy, from outside of the cavity, through the material to said receiver, and said receiver is configured to receive and convert the wireless energy to electricity and to provide the electricity to the at least one electronic device.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the material is non-porous.

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the material includes an insulating material.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the closed state provides a water resistant seal.

5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the received electrical current is direct current.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the received electrical current is alternating current.

7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the cavity is at least 20 cubic inches.

8. The device of claim 1 , wherein the cavity is at least 25 cubic inches.
