Patent Applications by Tesla, Inc.

20250170764. PASS-THROUGH BACK INJECTION COMPOSITE MATS MAT FEATURES (Tesla, .)

Abstract: in some disclosed examples, a structure can include a panel having a first side and a second side and can comprise a permeable matrix. the structure can also include a feature coupled to the panel by being injection molded from the second side and passing through the permeable matrix to the first side.

20250170936. SEAT ARMREST MODULE INTEGRATED HEADREST (Tesla, .)

Abstract: a seat assembly for an automotive vehicle, the middle seat assembly including a middle frame, a fixed portion, and a movable portion. the middle frame can be securable to a frame of a seat assembly between a first seat and a second seat of the seat assembly. the fixed portion can be connected to the middle frame. the movable portion can include a headrest. the movable portion can be pivotably connected to the middle frame and can be movable between an upright position where the movable portion forms a backrest of a middle seat of the seat assembly and between a lowered position where the movable portion forms an armrest between the first seat and the second seat.

20250171705. CONDUCTIVE GREASE FORMULATIONS GROUNDING SOLUTIONS ELECTRIC DRIVE UNIT (Tesla, .)

Abstract: a conductive grease comprising a base oil, an organic lubricant additive for enhancing lubrication of the base oil, and a conductive additive for increasing electrical conductivity and thickening of the base oil. the conductive additive comprising ionic lubricant additives and/or inorganic lubricant additives. a testing method to quantitatively measure the effectiveness of conductive grease and a grounding solution utilizing the conductive grease.

20250172338. HYBRID RECYCLING FURNACE USING IMMERSION MELTING EQUIPMENT (Tesla, .)

Abstract: examples of the present disclosure relate to a recycling furnace that may include a heating chamber configured to receive solid metal and an immersion heating unit adjacent to the heating chamber. the solid metal may undergo a thermolysis pre-treatment in the heating chamber, and the heating chamber may include a furnace that is configured to create liquid metal by melting the solid metal after the thermolysis pre-treatment. the immersion heating unit is configured to receive and heat the liquid metal, and each immersion heater is immersed in liquid metal.

20250174658. COMPOSITIONS METHODS SILICON CONTAINING DRY ANODE FILMS (Tesla, .)

Abstract: dry process electrode films, and energy storage devices incorporating the same are described, including a silicon active material. the films may be free standing anode electrode films. also provided are methods for fabricating such anode electrode films.
