A connection device includes a housing, a power contact disposed within the housing, and a printed circuit board mounted in the housing having a first face provided with a first metal pad which is located between the printed circuit board and a surface of the power contact, and a second face provided with a first temperature sensor which is arranged opposite the first metal pad. A method of electrical connection to a vehicle to a charging cord provided with a charging socket is also provided.

Connection device for vehicle equipped with a temperature sensor

A connection device for electrical connection of a vehicle to a charging cord provided with a charging socket includes a housing, a power contact disposed within the housing, and a printed circuit board mounted in the housing having a first face provided with a first metal pad which is compressed between the printed circuit board and a surface of the power contact, and a second face provided with a first temperature sensor which is arranged opposite the first metal pad. A method of electrical connection of a vehicle to a charging cord provided with a charging socket is also provided.

A connection device for electrical connection of a vehicle to a charging cord provided with a charging socket is presented herein. The connection device includes a housing, at least a first and a second power contact disposed within the housing. Each power contact has a front section disposed in a front part of the housing which extends in a connection base and a rear section disposed in a rear part of the housing which extends in a direction substantially parallel to a direction of connection of the charging socket. The connector device also includes a printed circuit board mounted in the rear part of the housing. The printed circuit board extends in a plane substantially parallel to the direction of connection. The printed circuit board has a first face provided with a first metal pad which is compressed between the printed circuit board, an axial surface of the rear section of the first power contact, and a second face provided with a first temperature sensor which is arranged opposite the first metal pad.

A printed circuit board is housed in a connector. A temperature sensor is mounted on the printed circuit board between two connection pads located on one of the faces of the printed circuit board. A contact housed in the connector is placed in thermal continuity with two thermal conduction lands, one of which is arranged on the same face of the printed circuit board as the connection pads and the other of which is arranged beneath the temperature sensor. Each of the connection pads is connected to a temperature measurement circuit.
