TIC environmental event sensor
11274946 · 2022-03-15 ·

The TIC environmental event sensor is a nickel-sized, ultra-thin circuit assembly, containing an extremely compact array of both environmental sensors and physical sensors, along with local and wireless access to all the sensor data, including BTLE & LoRa, as well as an electronic ink display for limited field access to sensor events in real time. The TIC is designed to capture changes in the sensor data in real time, and then log it for future examination. The most recent change will remain on the device's display. The changes can then be transmitted to a smart phone or tablet via BTLE, networked as an asset via LoRa, or locally scrolled at the device. The TIC is Ideal for tracking any variations in the surrounding conditions of an asset's travel, storage or use.

ELECTRICAL ASSEMBLY

An electrical assembly may include a bus bar assembly, a sensor assembly, including a circuit board connected to the bus bar assembly, and a sensor, a bracket connected to the bus bar assembly, and a cooling member connected to the bracket. A method of assembling an electrical assembly may include connecting a shunt resistor with a bus bar assembly, connecting a circuit board with the bus bar assembly, connecting the bus bar assembly with the bracket, disposing the cooling member on or about the bracket, and/or connecting the cooling member with the bracket.

A sensor package structure is provided and includes a substrate, a sensor chip disposed on the substrate, a plurality of metal wires electrically coupling the substrate and the sensor chip, a frame fixed on the substrate, and a light-permeable layer that is disposed on the frame. The light-permeable layer has a transparent segment and a ring-shaped segment that surrounds the transparent segment. The ring-shaped segment is disposed on a top end surface of the frame, so that the light-permeable layer, the frame, and the substrate jointly define an enclosed space that accommodates the sensor chip and the metal wires therein. The ring-shaped segment has an inner ring-shaped roughened region that is arranged on an inner surface thereof and that is fixed onto the top end surface of the frame. Moreover, an inner edge of the inner ring-shaped roughened region is arranged in the enclosed space.

Circuit grouping systems and methods

Installation of electrical systems can require a large amount of branch circuits that can lead to a labeling degeneracy that can require a customized on-site tagging step to identify each conductor to be installed, or cause technicians to install additional circuit housing runs to circumvent the degeneracy. Circuit grouping systems and methods, and circuit installation methods, are disclosed herein that prevent such inefficiencies.

Electronic device

An electronic device includes chip components, a terminal connection body, conductive terminals, and a support member. Each of the chip components has a pair of end surfaces on which terminal electrodes are formed. The terminal connection body connects the terminal electrodes on one side of the chip components arranged next to each other in a parallel direction to the end surfaces. Each of the conductive terminals includes a connection part and a mount part. The connection part is connected with the terminal electrode of either of the chip components located on both ends of the chip components connected in series via the terminal connection body. The mount part faces the connection part and is connected with a mount board. The support member is disposed between the connection parts and the mount parts. The chip components are arranged so that the end surfaces face the mount board.
