Summary of the Inventive Concept
A suite of specialized wireless power transmission solutions tailored to meet the unique demands of high-security, high-temperature, extreme weather, disaster relief, and high-altitude environments, ensuring reliable and efficient power delivery to implantable neuromodulation devices.
Background and Problem Solved
The original patent for a wireless power receiver coil for implantable neuromodulation devices provided a foundational solution for minimally invasive implantation. However, it did not address the specific challenges posed by niche environments, such as high-security, high-temperature, extreme weather, disaster relief, and high-altitude settings. The new inventive concept solves this problem by adapting the original design to meet the unique requirements of these environments.
Detailed Description of the Inventive Concept
The new inventive concept comprises a range of specialized wireless power transmission solutions, each tailored to a specific niche environment. For high-security environments, the system incorporates enhanced encryption capabilities in the transmitter coil and a receiver coil configured to receive and decode the encrypted wireless power transfer signal. For high-temperature environments, the receiver coil is designed with thermal resistance and tuned to optimize power transfer. In extreme weather conditions, the receiver coil is housed in a waterproof enclosure to maintain efficient power transfer. In disaster relief scenarios, a single transmitter coil can power multiple implantable neuromodulation devices. Finally, in high-altitude environments, the transmitter coil features a high-power output, and the receiver coil is configured to amplify the wireless power transfer signal to compensate for signal attenuation.
Novelty and Inventive Step
The new inventive concept introduces novel adaptations to the original design, including enhanced encryption, thermal resistance, waterproofing, and signal amplification, which collectively provide a non-obvious solution for wireless power transmission in niche environments.
Alternative Embodiments and Variations
Alternative embodiments may include using different encryption protocols, varying the materials and designs of the receiver coils, or integrating additional sensors and monitoring systems to enhance the overall performance and reliability of the wireless power transmission solutions.
Potential Commercial Applications and Market
The new inventive concept has significant commercial potential in various industries, including medical devices, disaster relief, aerospace, and defense. The specialized wireless power transmission solutions can be marketed as premium offerings, targeting customers who require reliable and efficient power delivery in niche environments.
