主权项

1. Coil for inductive transcutaneous energy and/or data transfer for active medical implants, wherein coil windings are designed with a conductor and run in spiral shape around a center, wherein n points of intersection exist between two neighbouring complete windings, which define a winding plane wherein n is an odd number >3 and the position of the wound conductor with regard to the winding plane before and after the point of intersection relative to the winding plane alternates between a low position below the winding plane and a high position above the winding plane and the coil has a sheath of a biocompatible material.
