ABSTRACT:
A solid state electronic battery charger which is electromagnetically coupled to one or more batteries. A charging circuit energizes a drive winding to produce an alternating field received by an associated coupler and operative to convey charging current to a battery connected thereto. A sense winding monitors the level of the alternating field to derive a signal representative of the battery charge level and which causes a tapered charge to be supplied to the battery and an indication of a sensed fully charged state. A proximity sensor can be provided to denote the presence of a coupled battery and by which charging operation is commenced.
