A cord reel cable including a polymeric sheath with a conductive EMI drain and a method of manufacture therefor. The cord reel includes a cable comprising power and data conductors, as wells as a single drain wire which is grounded to a cord reel housing or spool or the like. The drain wire contacts an outer ETFE layer surrounding the cable in order to provide EMI shielding to the cable.

Cord reel including a polymeric sheath with a conductive EMI drain

A smart cord reel cable including at least one sensor for measuring cord or cord reel usage, a memory for receiving sensor input to create usage records, and a processor for analyzing the usage records to provide information for maintenance status indication and/or usage analytics.

Smart cord reel system

A vehicle charging system which comprises a electric cord and vehicle connector assembly, a sensor for determining the thermal buildup in the electric cord and vehicle connector assembly, and the processor monitors and modifies the pilot signal so as to limit the level of current being supplied to the electric vehicle.

Cord reel variable current thermal management and damage detection

A cord reel assembly including a single, continuous cord having stationary and retractable segments, with the stationary segment including multiple connectors and sheath covering such connectors where the connectors twist and untwist relative to the sheath in response to the retract and extension of the retractable segment.

A battery charging assembly includes a load management system, a charging cord with a battery connector, and circuitry for detecting thermal buildup. The load management system monitors the heat buildup in a coiled portion of the charging cord and issues a corresponding signal to control the current flowing through the cord.

A cord reel cable including a cable with tinsel sheath surrounding power and data conductors, wherein the tinsel sheath is comprised of no more than 40 tinsel or tinsel strands, and the cable is wound and unwound around a spool while maintaining continuous electrical contact to a power source through a slip ring mechanism or the like, wherein the tinsel sheath provides a durable EMI shielding to the cable.

An electric vehicle charging assembly includes a cord reel, a cord reel locking mechanism, and a master control unit for selectively unlocking the cord reel in response to an authorization signal. The electric vehicle charging assembly monitors the rotational position of the cord reel to prevent unauthorized use, and to record or relay information related to the improper use or malfunction of the electric vehicle charging assembly.
