Abstract
An induction coil for wireless charging of a vehicle battery is described. The induction coil includes an electrically conductive tube configured as multiple windings, and an electrically conductive coupler configured for attachment to the electrically conductive tube. The electrically conductive tube and the electrically conductive coupler are adapted to conduct an alternating current. Alternating current flow in the tube and the plurality of windings generates a magnetic field for wireless inductive charging of the vehicle battery. The electrically conductive tube and the electrically conductive coupler are each configured for passage of a coolant therethrough. A coolant flow through the electrically conductive tube transfers heat from the electrically conductive tube generated by alternating current flow through the electrically conductive tube.
