Patent attributes
A mounting assembly for transferring electrical power to an inductively powered device is contemplated, with a plurality of magnets positioned inside the mounting assembly includes for magnetically attracting and retaining the inductively powered device against a face plate, and for axially aligning the inductive power receiver of the inductive powered device with the inductive coil assembly inside the mounting assembly. A mounting support member is attached to the back plate of the mounting housing with adjustable joint for adjusted the orientation of the mounting housing relative to the mounting support member. The magnets retain the inductively powered device against the face plate and in the correct orientation with the inductive coil assembly even against forces which would otherwise disturb the inductive coupling, permitting use of the mounting assembly to transfer power in non-horizontal orientations and in moving vehicles.
