1Reliability

If traditional toroidal coil configurations are used, then inductance can be achieved, but non-uniform spacing between coils leads to decreased resonance and efficiency

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveresonance stabilityVSAvoidcoil spacing uniformity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

A plastic disc with equidistantly spaced teeth is introduced as an intermediary component between the coil windings. The teeth act as spacers that maintain uniform distance between adjacent coils, ensuring consistent spacing throughout the toroidal structure. This mediator component solves the manufacturing challenge of achieving precise uniform spacing while maintaining resonance stability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The plastic disc with pre-spaced teeth is prepared in advance before coil winding. The equidistant teeth are预先 positioned to define the exact spacing required for optimal resonance. By establishing the spacing structure beforehand, the coil windings can be wrapped uniformly around the teeth, ensuring consistent coil distance without requiring post-manufacturing adjustment.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies different material properties to different regions of the core structure. Ferrite material is used in specific localized areas where magnetic field concentration is needed to enhance inductance, while air gaps are maintained in other regions to prevent eddy current formation. This selective material distribution allows the system to achieve high inductance values while minimizing energy losses from eddy currents.
