Abstract
Systems and methods for magnetic self-aligning coil centering for wireless charging may include a charging device that may transmit power wirelessly to a portable device. The charging device may include a first magnet and a second magnet. When the portable device may be in proximity of the charging device, a first pole of the first magnet may create a first magnetic attraction force with a third magnet of the portable device, and the second pole of the second magnet may create a first magnetic repulsion force with the third magnet. When the portable device is placed adjacent to the charging device, the first magnetic attraction force and the first magnetic repulsion force may cause a first coil charging area of the charging device and a second coil charging area of the portable device to be aligned.
