Three-dimensional power distribution interconnect structure

An electrical power distribution system for a mobile platform, and a method for making such, includes a forming a substrate having a first panel connected to a second panel. The first panel resides in a first plane that differs from a second plan in which the second panel resides. One or more bus bars are arranged on the first panel, with one or more power electronic devices arranged on the first panel and connected to the one or more bus bars. One or more connectors are arranged on the second panel and electrically connected to the one or more bus bars. Finally, one or more thermal relief devices are arranged in contact with the substrate.

Modular furniture unit having power distribution

A modular furniture unit can be configured to provide power distribution in conjunction with other furniture features. Embodiments of furniture arrangements may utilize one or more modular furniture units to provide one or more of such features (e.g. storage, seating, privacy, work surface, lighting, etc.). In some embodiments, the modular furniture unit includes an elongated upper member having an upper slot that has a first end and a second end opposite its first end. At least one leg is attached to the first end and at least one leg is attached to the second end. The elongated upper member may have a channel through which power cabling passes and outlets that are connected to such cabling. Different elements can be connected to the upper member via the upper slot or a downward facing opening of the upper member and/or to the legs to provide different furniture arrangements.

POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR A STANDBY GENERATOR

A power management system for selectively providing power to one or more electrical loads using a standby generator includes a meter mounted transfer switch, a power management module, and a controller. The meter mounted transfer switch is configured to receive electrical power from a utility source. The power management module is configured to receive electrical power from each of the standby generator and the utility source. The controller is in communication with the standby generator and the power management module, and monitors a load on the standby generator and communicates to the power management module to selectively disconnect at least one of the one or more electrical loads based on the monitored load.

Compression-Loaded Printed Circuit Assembly For Solder Defect Mitigation
20210359448 · 2021-11-18 ·

The present disclosure provides systems for applying a compression load on at least part of an application specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”) ball grid array (“BGA”) package during the rework or secondary reflow process. The compression-loading assembly may include a top plate and a compression plate. The compression plate may exert a compression load on at least part of the ASIC using one or more compression mechanisms. The compression mechanisms may each include a bolt and a spring. The bolt may releasably couple the top plate to the compression plate and allow for adjustments to the compression load. The spring may be positioned on the bolt between the top plate and the compression plate and, therefore, may exert a force in a direction away from the top plate and toward the compression plate. The compression load may retain the solder joint and may prevent the solder separation defect during the reflow process.
