Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wireless power transmission technology, and more specifically to a load wireless power transmission system with constant current output. Background Technology
[0002] Wireless power transfer technology, compared to traditional wired power supply, offers advantages such as flexibility, convenience, safety, and reliability due to the absence of electrical connections. In practical applications, maintaining a constant system output current is often required. A typical approach is to introduce closed-loop negative feedback control by adding a pre-converter on the primary side or a Buck or Boost type DC-DC converter on the secondary side. While this achieves good results, it increases control complexity and reduces stability. Another common method is based on a compensation network design, leveraging the topology's inherent constant current output characteristics to achieve constant current output to the load without complex closed-loop negative feedback control. However, the system's constant current output performance is extremely sensitive to the mutual inductance of the coupling mechanism, thus limiting its effectiveness. Furthermore, existing constant current control technologies primarily target purely resistive loads, exhibiting poor applicability to inductive and capacitive loads. This invention achieves constant output current control by adjusting the current across the load to be in phase or out of phase with the output current of the controlled AC current source. The output current is unaffected by load size or changes in coupling coefficient and load characteristics. The system exhibits excellent constant current output characteristics, and the overall system control is simple, offering significant advantages in practical applications. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the accompanying drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0030] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0031] Example 1, referring to Figure 1 This is one embodiment of the present invention, which provides a load wireless power transmission system with constant current output, including: a transmitting device and a receiving device;
[0032] The transmitting device includes an AC controlled current source, a transmitter control module, and a transmitting module;
[0033] The receiving device includes a receiving module, a control signal generation module, and a load;
[0034] The output of the AC controlled current source is connected to the transmitting module, and the input is connected to the transmitting control module.
[0035] The receiving module is connected in series with the load, and the control signal generation module is connected in parallel between the receiving module and the load;
[0036] The transmitting and receiving devices transmit electrical energy and signals through mutual inductance.
[0037] In existing wireless power transfer systems, achieving constant current output typically relies on adding a DC-DC converter at the receiver or constructing voltage and current amplitude feedback loops at the transmitter to adjust output parameters. While these solutions can cope with load variations to some extent, they also introduce higher control complexity and regulation delays. Especially in applications where load characteristics change rapidly or coupling states are unstable, the system is prone to output fluctuations or control instability.
[0038] This embodiment employs a control method based on current phase criterion. Instead of relying on the output current or voltage amplitude as a feedback reference, it determines whether the system is in a stable operating state by sampling the phase information of the output current on the load side. The sampled phase signal is conditioned to generate a control signal, which is fed back from the receiver to the transmitter via an information transmission device to adjust the output power of the AC controlled current source. This control method effectively avoids the response delay problem in the amplitude feedback path and simplifies the receiver structure, avoiding the introduction of an additional power regulation module.
[0039] Furthermore, the control signal and energy transmission path are structurally decoupled, ensuring the control closed loop remains effective even under conditions such as fluctuations in mutual inductance or coil position misalignment. This enhances the system's stability and adaptability in dynamic operating environments. The overall control path of this topology is clear, and the adjustment link converges quickly, making it suitable for compact wireless power supply applications with high response requirements.

[0044] The output of the switch drive module is connected to the control input of the AC controlled current source, and generates a switch drive signal based on the drive control signal to control the output current of the AC controlled current source.
[0045] The receiving module consists of a receiving coil connected in series, a resonant capacitor at the receiving end, and the equivalent internal resistance of the receiving coil.
[0046] The transmitting module consists of a receiving coil, a receiving end resonant capacitor, and the equivalent internal resistance of the receiving coil, all connected in series.
[0047] The input terminal of the output current sampling module is connected to the load to sample the phase of the output current.
[0048] The output terminal of the output current sampling module is connected to the input terminal of the drive control signal conditioning module.
[0049] The drive control signal conditioning module generates a square wave drive control signal that is in the same direction or opposite to the output current based on the phase of the sampled transmission current.

[0051] The drive control signal transmitting module sends the drive control signal to the drive control signal receiving module.
[0052] The load can be any type of load.
[0053] The output current of the AC controlled current source is either in phase or out of phase with the current across the load, meaning the input current of the transmitting module is either in phase or out of phase with the output current of the receiving module, satisfying the following equation:
[0054]
[0055] in, It is the difference between the phase angle of the input current and the phase angle of the output current. These are the input current phase angle and the output current phase angle, respectively. The system is said to meet the constant current output requirement only when the phase difference between the input and output currents satisfies the above equation.
[0056] The natural frequency of the transmitting module is the same as the natural frequency of the receiving module, that is, satisfying: ω1=ω2, where, This indicates the inherent frequency of the transmitting module's circuit. L1 represents the natural frequency of the receiving module circuit, L2 represents the inductance of the transmitting coil, and C1 represents the resonant capacitance of the transmitting end, while C2 represents the resonant capacitance of the receiving end.

The AC controlled current source, under the regulation of the transmitting end control module, converts the voltage signal V... i The series circuit applied to the transmitting module, this series circuit is through the impedance formed by the coil inductance L1 and the capacitor C1. Then, the resonant current can be obtained at the inductor of the transmitting end.
[0059] S2, resonant current An alternating magnetic field is generated at the transmitting coil, which couples with the receiving coil to induce an electromotive force at the receiving coil. Figure 1 The impedance at the receiving module can be obtained as follows: By circuit Figure 1 According to Kirchhoff's voltage law, the load voltage is:
[0060]
[0061] S3. When electrical energy is conducted from the transmitter to the receiver, the receiver module is connected in series with the load, and the current at the load is... When the current When the current flows to the current sampling module, the current sampling module collects the phase information of the current for subsequent control decisions; refer to Figure 2 From Kirchhoff's voltage law, we can obtain:
[0062]
[0063] S4. After receiving the current sampling signal from the current sampling module, the drive control signal conditioning module analyzes the current signal. If the phase relationship is found to not satisfy the constant current condition (i.e., the imaginary part is not zero), that is, the difference between the phase angles of the input current and the output current is not 0 or π, then...
[0064]
[0065] Based on this, set the imaginary part of the above equation to zero and solve for the result. Then, regenerate the drive control signal that is in the same or opposite direction as the output current based on the result.
[0066] S5. The drive control signal is transmitted to the transmitter via the drive control signal transmitting module to ensure that the signal feedback process is not interrupted and the closed-loop control path is maintained.
[0067] S6. The drive control signal receiving module of the transmitting end receives the feedback signal and hands it over to the switch drive module for processing. The system is tuned by adjusting the output frequency ω or current amplitude I1 of the AC controlled current source.
[0068] S7. After the system enters a new resonant state, if the condition ω1=ω2 is satisfied, then... and In-phase or out-of-phase, thus maintaining a constant output current, as shown by the formula:
[0069]
[0070] The derived frequency operating point enables stable control closed loop.
[0071] Example 4, refer to Figures 2-3 As one embodiment of the present invention, a load wireless power transfer system with constant current output is provided.
[0072] To verify the beneficial effects of this invention, scientific demonstration was conducted through experiments.
[0073] Reference Figure 2 This is the equivalent schematic diagram of the system. Figure 2 We can obtain:
[0074]
[0075] in, These represent the input voltage vector of the transmitting module and the output voltage vector across the load, respectively. These are the current vectors of the transmitting and receiving circuits, respectively, Z. L Z1 = jωL1 + 1 / jωC1 is the load impedance, Z2 = jωL2 + 1 / jωC2 is the receiver module circuit impedance; ω is the system operating frequency, L1 is the inductance of the transmitting coil, L2 is the inductance of the receiving coil; C1 is the resonant capacitance of the transmitting end, C2 is the resonant capacitance of the receiving end; M is the mutual inductance between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil.
[0076] According to equation (1), the ratio of input voltage to output voltage is:
[0077]
[0078] Setting the imaginary part of equation (2) to zero, i.e., the input current and output current are in phase or out of phase, we can obtain the system operating frequency as:
[0079]
[0080] For simplicity, let R1 = R2 = 0 and L1C1 = L2C2, then we can obtain:
