Traditional wireless power transmission (WPT) systems used in intestinal robots generally adopt a hollow cylinder axial winding mode, which occupies a large amount of space, limits the activity space of the examinee, and complicates the winding. This paper proposes a transmitting coil structure for a loosely coupled WPT system of an intestinal robot. The proposed structure is composed of a square spiral wound flat coil pair, which substantially reduces the axial length of the coil. Thereby, it effectively reduces the volume of the transmitting coil and makes the coil structure simpler and lighter. First, the working principle of the WPT system is introduced. Then, the magnetic field distribution of the designed coil is analyzed via COMSOL simulation. Finally, the feasibility of the design of the power transmitting device is verified experimentally, and the optimal resonant frequency is determined. The experimental results show that when the working frequency is 213 kHz, the power of the WPT system at the center of the coil pair is 787 mW, and the transmission efficiency is 5.7%. Thus, the proposed structure can satisfy the power requirements of an intestinal robot.
