Abstract
Various implementations include a battery disconnect device that includes a breaker, a housing, and a bus bar. The breaker has a pivot portion and an actuation portion, and the actuation portion has an actuation face. The pivot portion has an axis of rotation about which the breaker is pivotable. The housing defines a chamber, and the chamber is in fluid communication with a gas generator via an inlet defined by an inlet wall of the housing. The breaker is disposed within the chamber in a first position in which the actuation face is adjacent the inlet and inlet wall and combustion gas from the gas generator pushes on the actuation face to cause the breaker to pivot about the axis of rotation of the pivot portion to a second position, which causes the breaker to break the bus bar.
