Abstract:
Today, the usage of robots is growing in the warehouses for automated organizing of goods and in the field for harvesting foods and other agriculture tasks. Many big resellers use robots in their distribution warehouses in an automated delivery system and, many manufacturers use them in their factories to transfer goods and components between production lines and warehouses integrated with ERP systems. The battery is needed for such devices and, with WPT technology it can be reduced in size and capacity. It is useful for reducing environmental pollution resulting from disposing of batteries used for battery-operated vehicles and robots. With motivation for reducing battery size in robots, the main aim of the research is to find an alternative method of dynamic wireless power transfer to a moving object such as an electric vehicle or a robot that it moves on wheels on the floor. The well-known systems and their common series-connected/switched road embedded segment structures are discussed and challenged. Then, an alternative method of synchronization to the secondary resonance is presented. The suggested method eliminates switches between road-embedded coil units and makes the energy transition easy among units. This method shortens the length of the EMF radiative part of road embedded segments and the application is suitable for two-dimensional floor embedded structures for robot applications. The experimental and the simulation results are shared. The last chapter concludes the thesis with a discussion on the results of the thesis and future work.
