Abstract
An inductive power transfer coil arrangement comprising: a first coil assembly including: at least a first magnetically permeable core including a base having first and second limbs extending away therefrom, wherein the first limb is located between two second limbs and extends further from the base than the second limbs, and at least one coil wound about at least one limb; and a second coil assembly including: at least a second magnetically permeable core for use in an inductive power transfer system, including a base having first and second limbs extending away therefrom, wherein the first limb is located between two second limbs that extend further from the base than the second limbs; and at least one coil wound about at least one limb; the first and second magnetically permeable cores being arranged in relatively moveable relationship such that in some relative positions the first and second magnetically permeable cores are opposed such as to provide effective magnetic coupling.
