CONNECTOR SYSTEM FOR A COMPONENT IN A POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN A MOTOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240030668 titled 'CONNECTOR SYSTEM FOR A COMPONENT IN A POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN A MOTOR VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a connector system that provides a sealed and grounded electrical connection for a component of a power management system, such as those found in a battery-powered motor vehicle. The connector system includes a male connector assembly and an adaptor assembly. The adaptor assembly consists of a capacitor assembly, a female terminal assembly, and a busbar assembly.

  • The internal electrical connection state is defined when the female terminal assembly is electrically coupled to the capacitor assembly, the capacitor assembly is electrically coupled to the busbar assembly, and the busbar assembly is electrically coupled to the component of the power management system.
  • In this internal electrical connection state, the electrical couplings are sealed from the external environment, which increases the operating life, durability, and reliability of the adaptor assembly, the connector system, and the power management system component.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Battery-powered motor vehicles
  • Power management systems in various industries

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a sealed and grounded electrical connection for components of a power management system, ensuring reliability and durability
  • Protects the electrical couplings from the external environment, increasing the operating life of the system

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased operating life, durability, and reliability of the adaptor assembly, connector system, and power management system component
  • Sealed and grounded electrical connection ensures proper functioning of the power management system


Original Abstract Submitted

the present disclosure relates to a connector system that provides a sealed and grounded electrical connection for a component of a power management system, like those found in a battery-powered motor vehicle. the connector system includes a male connector assembly and an adaptor assembly. the adaptor assembly includes: (i) a capacitor assembly, (ii) a female terminal assembly, and (iii) a busbar assembly. an internal electrical connection state is defined when: (a) the female terminal assembly is electrically coupled to the capacitor assembly, (b) the capacitor assembly is electrically coupled to the busbar assembly, and (c) the busbar assembly is electrically coupled to an extent of the component of the power management system. in the internal electrical connection state, the electrical couplings are sealed from the external environment which increases the operating life, durability and reliability of the adaptor assembly, the connector system and the power management system component.
