Implantable wireless power system
A wireless power system capable of transmitting power through the skin without percutaneous wires over distances ranging from a few inches to several feet includes an external transmitting coil assembly and a receiving coil assembly. The transmitting coil assembly includes an excitation coil and transmitting resonant coil which are inductively coupled to each other. The receiving coil assembly includes a receiving resonant coil and a power pick-up coil which are also inductively coupled to each other. A high frequency AC power input, such as radio frequency (RF), supplied to the excitation coil inductively causes the transmitting resonant coil to resonate resulting in a local time varying magnetic field. The transmitting and receiving resonant coils are constructed as to have closely matched or identical resonant frequencies so that the magnetic field produced by the transmitting resonant coil is able to cause the receiving resonant coil to resonate strongly also, even when the distance between the two resonant coils greatly exceeds the largest dimension of either coil. The receiving resonant coil then creates its own local time varying magnetic field which inductively produces a voltage in a power pick-up coil to provide power to an active implantable medical device or implantable rechargeable battery.

The invention discloses an online oil way abrasive particle monitoring device. An amplitude difference and a phase difference of excitation signals on two groups of excitation coils of an oil way abrasive particle sensor are adjusted during initially electrifying, so that the polarities of magnetic fields generated by the two excitation coils of the oil way abrasive particle sensor are reversed and neutralized in a middle detection coil. Consequently, when oil liquid without abrasive particles passes through the oil way abrasive particle sensor under ordinary circumstance, only a small carrier signal is output from the detection coil; when oil liquid with abrasive particles passes through the sensor, generated abrasive particle signals are modulated on the carrier signal and subsequently transmitted into a signal detecting circuit to amplify and demodulate, so that effective abrasive particle signals can be acquired; the abrasive particle signals are transmitted to a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) to process so as to acquire parameters, such as the size, the number and the material, of the abrasive particles; and due to the parameters, the abrasion condition of a monitored mechanical device is reflected, so that the health condition of the monitored device is acquired in real time and the online monitoring on the oil way abrasive particles is realized.

A metal detector has a circular excitation coil (10) through which foodstuffs to be tested (65) pass, on a conveyor belt (40). The excitation coil (10) is excited by a stable oscillator (50) and the lines of flux generated by the excitation coil (10) link two receiver coils (20, 30) equidistantly spaced either side of the excitation coil (10). As a foodstuff (65) having a foreign ferromagnetic or electrically conductive object therein passes through the receiver coils (20, 30), a voltage is induced in them. This induced voltage is phase compensated. The change in amplitude or frequency of the oscillator (50) as the foodstuff (65) moves through the excitation coil (10) is also passed to the processor (70) which removes the artifacts from the detector signal caused by the volume of the foodstuff (65) itself. The resultant signal, which was previously swamped by the effect of the volume of the foodstuff itself, can then be detected and the foodstuff can be removed from the conveyor (40).
