FINGERPROOF TERMINAL ARRANGEMENT FOR HIGH-VOLTAGE APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17836938 titled 'FINGERPROOF TERMINAL ARRANGEMENT FOR HIGH-VOLTAGE APPLICATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a terminal arrangement for high-voltage batteries. It consists of a substrate with concentric tubular inner and outer walls, and an annular terminal placed between them. The dimensions of the inner and outer walls and the annular terminal are designed to prevent human fingertips above a certain size from touching the terminal.

  • The terminal arrangement is designed for high-voltage batteries.
  • It includes a substrate with concentric inner and outer walls.
  • An annular terminal is placed between the inner and outer walls.
  • The dimensions of the walls and terminal prevent large human fingertips from touching the terminal.

Potential Applications

  • Electric vehicles
  • Renewable energy storage systems
  • High-voltage power distribution systems

Problems Solved

  • Prevents accidental contact with high-voltage terminals
  • Reduces the risk of electric shock or injury
  • Ensures safety during battery handling and maintenance

Benefits

  • Enhanced safety for users and technicians
  • Minimizes the risk of electrical accidents
  • Facilitates safe handling and maintenance of high-voltage batteries


Original Abstract Submitted

A terminal arrangement for high-voltage batteries is disclosed. The terminal arrangement includes a substrate having concentric generally tubular inner and outer walls extending from an upper surface of the substrate, with an annular terminal disposed on the upper surface between the inner and outer walls. The inner and outer walls have respective inner and outer heights above a top surface of the annular terminal and the annular terminal has a radial span between the inner and outer walls, wherein the inner and outer heights and the radial span are sized so as to preclude human fingertips above a predetermined size from touching the annular terminal.
