An electrical interconnection system for electrical components of a module includes a hub printed circuit board (PCB) having a first electrically conductive track and a second electrically conductive track. Each of the first and second electrically conductive tracks is configured to electrically connect at least two of the electrical components of the module, wherein the at least two of the electrical components of the module are external to the hub PCB. The system also includes multiple electrical terminals, wherein each of the electrical terminals is configured to electrically connect one of the first and second electrically conductive tracks of the hub PCB to one of the at least two electrical components of the module.

Electrical interconnection system and method for electrically interconnecting electrical components of a module

In at least one embodiment, a busbar assembly for a vehicle is provided. The assembly includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate. The first plate supported on the PCB and is configured to enable a first current to flow in a first direction. The second plate is supported on the PCB and includes a first portion positioned below the first plate to enable a second current to flow in a second direction. The third plate is on the PCB and is positioned below the second plate to enable the first current to flow in the first direction. The second current that flows through the second plate is increased through an effective cross-section of the second plate when the flow of the second current in the second direction is different than the flow of the first current in the first direction.

Vehicle interleaved busbars

A vehicle battery monitoring assembly includes a terminal connectable to a battery post, a shunt formed of a first metallic material, and a cable formed of a different second metallic material. The shunt is connected at one end to the terminal. The assembly further includes a sheet formed of the second metallic material. The sheet is attached on a portion of another end of the shunt. The cable is connected at one end to the sheet.

Battery monitoring assembly having battery monitor module and cable for connection to a shunt of the module

A electronics unit operable to facilitate vehicle battery charging or other energy manipulation activities. The electronics unit may include a current sensor operable to determine an output current. The output current determination may be used as feedback or inputs to other electronics unit electronics, such as to facilitate battery charging related operations or other operations attendant to use of the electronics unit.

Electronics unit with current sensing

A battery monitoring system (BMS) configured for use in measuring operating conditions of a battery or other source of electric current. The BMS may include a housing configured to include a dampening element between a shunt and connection arm in order to limit the likelihood of vibrations and other forces acting on the BMS shorting or otherwise disrupting electrical connections used to measure current through the shunt.

Battery monitoring system

The connector assembly security device refers to a device used for verifying the proper position of a connector in an assembly, said connector provided with a number of connection terminals connected to conductor cables, and which is intended for being housed on a base part, also provided with connection terminals. Likewise, it is also a function of said device to carry out a second retention in case the first retention existing between the connector and the base part fails, thus preventing disconnection.

Connector assembly screw and anchor security device

Provided for connectors intended for being coupled to a housing () defined in an electric junction box, with male terminals projecting from the bottom thereof and wherein between the body () of the connector and the bottom of the housing (), a leak-tight seal () is arranged, the invention consists of situating between said seal () and the bottom of the housing (), a separator () traversed by said male terminals, on which separator said seal () is in turn assembled, having die cuts () for said terminals and with slits () and () for pins () and () projecting from the plate () of the separator and which can be coupled inside the body (), such that in the tightening of these elements, a deformation of the seal () is achieved against the separator (), and accordingly with regard to the bottom of the housing (), as well as with regard to the side wall of the latter, quite considerably facilitating the assembly of the seal (), as this can be carried out on the stiff element constituted of the separator, outside of the housing (), and the subsequent assembly of said ensemble inside the latter.

Electrical connectors having a sealing element

A system and method for preventing electric arcs in connectors feeding power loads and connector used, Comprising several connectors () interspersed in an electric power distribution network, integrating first and second releasable socket coupling supports () bearing at least one pair of terminals () which, in a first coupling position A, are electrically coupled, forming a channel () to a load (), which terminals (), in another decoupling position C of the supports (), are separated, it being possible to generate an electric arc, each connector () comprising a pair of electroconductive elements () which, in said position A or in intermediate decoupling position B, and before the terminals () reach said position C, form an auxiliary electric circuit () through which an electric warning signal is generated during a transition towards decoupling, there being a device () connected to the auxiliary circuit () which, upon receiving said warning signal, interrupts the electric feed to said channel () of the terminals () prior to their physical separation.
