Abstract
The present invention relates to a charging device for a personal mobility means. More specifically, the present invention may comprise support parts each having a slot in which a wheel of a personal mobility means is seated; a frame part connecting the support parts to each other; a first charging unit disposed in the frame part to generate a magnetic field for wireless charging toward the personal mobility means seated in the support parts; and a second charging unit mounted to the personal mobility means and converting the magnetic field, received via the first charging unit, into power to charge a battery provided in the personal mobility means.
Claims18
A charging device for a personal mobility device, the charging device comprising:
- a support part comprising a groove configured to seat at least one wheel of the personal mobility device;
- a frame part connected to the support part;
- a first charging unit disposed in the frame part and configured to generate a magnetic field toward the personal mobility device when the personal mobility device is seated in the support part, the magnetic field for wireless charging the personal mobility device,
- wherein a second charging unit is mounted to the personal mobility device and configured to charge a battery provided in the personal mobility device by converting the magnetic field into electricity,
- wherein the charging device further comprises a variable support part secured to the frame part and configured to support and move the first charging unit relative to a position of the second charging unit, and wherein the variable support part comprises:
- a first variable support rotatably arranged to support the first charging unit;
- a second variable support disposed on an outside of the first variable support and arranged to guide a horizontal movement of the first variable support;
- and
- a third variable support disposed on an outside of the second variable support and coupled to the frame part, the third variable support configured to guide a vertical movement of the second variable support.
A charging device for a personal mobility device comprising,
- a support part comprising a groove configured to seat at least one wheel of the personal mobility device;
- a frame part connected to the support part;
- a locking unit rotatably coupled to the frame part and arranged to close an entrance portion of the support part after the at least one wheel is positioned inside the support part;
- a first charging unit disposed in the frame part and configured to generate a magnetic field toward the personal mobility device when the personal mobility device is seated in the support part, the magnetic field for wireless charging the personal mobility device,
- wherein a second charging unit is mounted to the personal mobility device and configured to charge a battery provided in the personal mobility device by converting the magnetic field into electricity,
- wherein the charging device further comprises a variable support part secured to the frame part and configured to support and move the first charging unit relative to a position of the second charging unit, and wherein the variable support part comprises:
- a first variable support rotatably arranged to support the first charging unit;
- a second variable support disposed on an outside of the first variable support and arranged to guide a horizontal movement of the first variable support;
- and
- a third variable support disposed on an outside of the second variable support and coupled to the frame part, the third variable support configured to guide a vertical movement of the second variable support.
