A charging system (100) for charging electronic devices. The charging
system
(100) includes a power distributor (110) and a power receiver (112)
in which the power distributor (110) transfers power to the power receiver
(112) when the power receiver (112) engages the power distributor
(110). The power receiver (112) induces a charging current in an
article that is supported by the power receiver (112). The power receiver
(112) can include an inductor plate (146) having a first charging
coil (148), and the article can be a garment (156) having an embedded
electronic device (158). The garment (156) can include a second charging
coil (162), and the first charging coil (148) can induce the charging
current in the second charging coil (162).
