Output Terminal, Insulator Sleeve, Cover for AC Generator and Assembly Thereof

An output terminal for a vehicle AC generator is provided. The output terminal comprises: a bolt and a cylinder nut. The bolt has outer threads and is inserted through a through hole of a rectifier unit. The cylinder nut has inner threads, which engage with the outer threads of the bolt so that the cylinder nut surrounds the outer circumference of the bolt and fixes the bolt to the rectifier unit. The cylinder nut has a recess in its outer circumference. An insulating sleeve may be provided on the output terminal. The insulating sleeve has at least an internal protrusion for being received in and engaged with the recess of the cylinder nut.

Apparatus for Electrically Bonding a Solar Array
20170264026 · 2017-09-14 · ·

In various representative aspects, an apparatus for securing solar panels to a rail support guide, while facilitating grounding by a common grounding wire. The apparatus is an electrically conductive lay-in-lug fastener, which facilitates multiple rows of solar panels to be electrically bonded to each other. The apparatus includes a lug member for securing the grounding wire. In doing so, the structure for securing the grounding wire is at an acute angle to the frame, enabling a wrench to be used even in space-challenged locations.

Electrical transmission line repair apparatus
09761960 · 2017-09-12 · ·

An electrical transmission line repair apparatus comprising a first end section, a second end section and a link member. The first and second end sections are spaced apart from each other and each configured to receive and releasably retain a conductor thereacross. The link member is positioned on one side of the first and second end sections, so that the first and second end sections can be coupled to a conductor on either side of a link member, suspension or other device from below, and without decoupling or de-energizing the transmission line. In addition, the installation of the same and the clamping can be achieved from below the conductor upon positioning. That is, the link member or members do not straddle the transmission line, requiring dismantling of the dead end configuration, or the disassembly of the link member from the first and second end section.
