Specification

Description:FILED OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to the field of automobiles. In particular, the present disclosure relates a coil placement mechanism for wireless charger assembly.

BACKGROUND

Generally, vehicles such as, four wheelers are equipped with a wireless charger adapted to charge the electronic gadgets such as, but not limited to, mobile phones. The wireless charger may include a transmitter coil and a holder adapted to be aligned with the coil to hold the coil. The transmitter coil is required to be aligned centrally with respect to the holder.

Conventionally, the transmitter coil is assembled on the holder. However, positioning of the transmitter coil at correct position is a challenge in manual operation by using the existing apparatus due to various dimensional tolerances. A variation in the dimensions of the transmitter coil may lead to generate uncertainty in central position of the transmitter coil with respect to the holder. This affects the functionality of the wireless charger. Further, the transmitter coil may shift from its centre. Shifting of the transmitter coil from the defined area leads to greatly reduced performance of wireless charger.

Accordingly, there is an immense need to develop an assembling apparatus that can overcome one or more technical problems of the existing art.

6. The coil placement mechanism (100) as claimed in claim 5, wherein the pair of lower jaws (108, 110) comprising:
a first lower jaw (108) installed orthogonally with respect to the first upper jaw (104) and the second upper jaw (106) on the second face (134) of the base plate (102);
a second lower jaw (110) installed parallel to the first lower jaw (108) on the second face (134) of the base plate (102).

7. The coil placement mechanism (100) as claimed in claims 5 and 6, wherein
each of the first upper jaw (104) and the second upper jaw (106) comprising a first rack (124) adapted to engage with the upper pinion (150) to execute the sliding of the first upper jaw (104) and the second upper jaw (106); and
each of the first lower jaw (108) and the second lower jaw (110) comprising a second rack (126) adapted to engage with the lower pinion (152) to execute the sliding of the first lower jaw (108) and the second lower jaw (110).

8. The coil placement mechanism (100) as claimed in the claim 1, comprising:
a pair of upper resilient members (140, 142) attached with the first face (132) and the pair of upper jaws (104, 106) for providing a resilient force to the pair of upper jaws (104, 106);
a pair of lower resilient members (144, 146) attached with the second face (134) and the pair of lower jaws (108, 110) for providing the resilient force to the pair of lower jaws (108, 110).

9. The coil placement mechanism (100) as claimed in the claim 1, wherein the pair of upper jaws (104, 106) comprising:
