EV Charging Solutions, LLC Announces Issuance of U.S. Patent for Above-the-Vehicle Wireless EV Charging System

U.S. Patent 12,145,461 granted by the USPTO

Albuquerque, NM, November 19, 2024 – EV Charging Solutions, LLC, also known as QKOIL™, a leader in innovative wireless electric vehicle (EV) charging technology, announces that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has granted the company its first patent for an above-the-vehicle wireless charging system. U.S. Patent No. 12,145,461, titled “Inductive Charging Station,” represents a significant advancement in wireless EV charging solutions tailored for individual consumers as well as fleet applications.

The newly issued patent highlights key features of EV Charging Solutions’ proprietary technology, which uses an above-the-vehicle apparatus to wirelessly charge electric vehicles. This breakthrough system includes an x-y-z manipulable receptacle, designed for mounting on structures such as ceilings, carports, or garages. Using robotic components, the x-y-z manipulable system precisely positions the charge transmitter over a target EV parked below.

The charge transmitter device, housed within the x-y-z manipulable receptacle, autonomously moves and aligns with a receiving coil on the EV’s surface for efficient electromagnetic charging. After completing the charge, the device retracts to its original position, enabling it to seamlessly charge the next EV parked within the structure. This unique sequential charging capability is especially suited to high-demand, multi-vehicle fleet environments.

The QKOIL system is further supported by an advanced controller that coordinates all operations, including managing data flow between the charge transmitter and the EV, optimizing communications, and enabling precise movements of the x-y-z manipulable receptacle. Integrated sensors enhance system functionality, enabling accurate identification and targeting of specific areas on each EV to ensure efficient and precise charging.

Importance of Intellectual Property

The issuance of this patent reflects EV Charging Solutions’ commitment to protecting its intellectual property, a cornerstone in the development of next-generation EV infrastructure. This exclusive patent protection strengthens QKOIL's position in the market, allowing the company to continue pioneering solutions that contribute to a sustainable future. Safeguarding intellectual property is essential not only to preserving our competitive edge but also to fostering ongoing advancements in EV technology.
