    摘要: The present invention relates to a stackable connector for wireless transmission of power between separate devices comprising such a connector of a system, in particular of a patient monitoring system, said separate devices comprising such a connector. The connector comprises a housing (301, 407) and a magnetic coupling unit (302) arranged within the housing (301, 407) for transmitting power to and/or receiving power from another device of the system having a counterpart connector by use of inductive coupling. Said magnetic coupling unit includes a flux concentrator (303, 401, 411, 432, 442), at least part of which having a U-shaped cross-section forming a recess (304, 402, 412, 422, 437, 447) between the legs of the U, a first coil (305, 417, 431) arranged within the recess of the flux concentrator, and a second coil (306, 427, 441) arranged outside of the recess in which the first coil (305, 417, 431) is arranged. The housing (301, 407) is arranged to allow stacking of connectors upon each other so that the first coil (305, 417, 431) of the connector (300, 400, 410, 430) and a second coil of another connector stacked upon the connector together form a transformer for inductive power transmission there between and/or the second coil (306, 427, 441) of the connector (300, 400, 410, 430) and a first coil (305a) of another connector (300a) stacked upon the connector (300, 400, 410, 430) together form a transformer for inductive power transmission there between.

    摘要: The disclosure features resonators to wirelessly transfer energy to a wireless power device including a device resonator coil having a dimension D. The resonator can include a first plurality of conductor windings wound approximately in a first plane and having first and second conductor leads, and a second plurality of conductor windings wound in a second plane and having third and fourth conductor leads. The first and third conductor leads can be coupled to each other and the second and the fourth conductor leads can be coupled to at least one capacitor. The first plane and second plane can be spaced apart by separation S and substantially parallel. The separation S between the first plane and second plane can be approximately equal to or greater than the dimension D of the device resonator coil.

    摘要: An electronic device is disclosed that includes a power distribution network, a first resonant network, a second resonant network, and a third resonant network. The power distribution network is configured transmit a voltage. The first resonant network is coupled to a first terminal of the power distribution network, and is configured to provide a first electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to the power distribution network. The second resonant network is coupled to a second terminal of the power distribution network, and is configured to provide a second ESD protection to the power distribution network. The third resonant network coupled between the first terminal and the second terminal of the power distribution network, and the first resonant network, the second resonant network, and the third resonant network are configured to filter an AC signal from the power distribution network.
