An energy storage system comprising at least one energy storage module adapted to supply electrical energy to a hybrid vehicle. The energy storage module comprises an enclosure, at least one battery array located within the enclosure, and an energy storage controller module located within the enclosure and electrically connected to the battery array. The energy storage module further comprises a compliant tipped thermistor which may be installed within a flexible clip. The thermistor is positioned to monitor the temperature of one or more of the batteries within the energy storage system.

Energy storage system for hybrid electric vehicle

An energy storage system comprising at least one energy storage module adapted to supply electrical energy to a hybrid vehicle. The energy storage module comprises an enclosure, at least one battery array located within the enclosure, and an energy storage controller module located within the enclosure and electrically connected to the battery array. A high voltage junction box is attached to a first end of the enclosure and having a plurality of high voltage connection terminals connected by a plug-in bussed electrical center configured to reduce the possibility of unintentional grounding or shorting, and decreases the safety risk to a technician during servicing. At least one of the high voltage connection terminals is configured to receive a high voltage conductor connected between the energy storage module and an inverter of the hybrid vehicle.

A rotary temperature mechanism for controlling the temperature door of a HVAC system of a vehicle includes a rotatable cam connected by a shaft to a rotary temperature control knob. The cam includes a helical rib thereon coacting with a carrier restricted to linear, sliding motion by the housing in response to rotation of the cam. The housing provides a linear track for guiding the carrier. Detent members are provided between the cam and housing to impart discrete stepping feel on rotation of the knob. The detent members include ball bearings on the cam rolling along a corrugated track of the housing. A cable is connected to the carrier and controls the temperature door by linear motion imparted thereon.
