In accordance with presently disclosed embodiments, an all front access battery rack system using insulated bus bars is provided. In one embodiment, a battery rack system may comprise: a controller rack module aligned on a rack; a battery rack module aligned on the rack; first and second insulated bus bars aligned perpendicularly to and electrically coupling the controller rack module with positive and negative terminals of the battery rack module along a front side of the rack, wherein each insulated bus bar comprises: a conductive material comprising conductive connector ends operable to electrically engage with the controller rack module and the battery rack module; and an insulative material electrically insulating the conductive material between the conductive connectors.

In at least one embodiment, a busbar assembly for a vehicle is provided. The assembly includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate. The first plate supported on the PCB and is configured to enable a first current to flow in a first direction. The second plate is supported on the PCB and includes a first portion positioned below the first plate to enable a second current to flow in a second direction. The third plate is on the PCB and is positioned below the second plate to enable the first current to flow in the first direction. The second current that flows through the second plate is increased through an effective cross-section of the second plate when the flow of the second current in the second direction is different than the flow of the first current in the first direction.

A motor drive apparatus includes a bus bar through which a current associated with motor driving flows, a printed circuit board, and a conductive support pedestal mounted on the printed circuit board and interposed between the bus bar and the printed circuit board, wherein the conductive support pedestal includes at least one hole for screw passing configured to fasten the bus bar and the conductive support pedestal with screw tightening, and a terminal unit for a printed circuit board configured to electrically connect an electric wire provided in the printed circuit board to the conductive support pedestal.

A busbar support system having means for preventing rotation of a threaded shaft which connects busbars to the busbar support and means to prevent compressive forces resulting for the bolted connection from causing damage to the busbar support.

A conveyor system for conveying of piece goods has frame profiles and an energy supply bus disposed along the frame profile. The conveyor system includes a first connection box for electrical connection of a first actuator, and a second connection box for connection of a second actuator, which differs from the first actuator with regard to its nominal voltage. Furthermore, a modular system includes a first connection box and a second connection box of the type. In particular, a voltage converter is disposed in the second connection box, which converter makes available an output alternating voltage of 110 VAC and/or 230 VAC and/or 400 VAC.

A multiple input power distribution shelf and a bus bar assembly thereof are provided. The power distribution shelf is installed in the server rack and comprises plural power supply units. The bus bar assembly comprises a first linking bus bar, a second linking bus bar, an insulation member and plural power connectors. The first linking bus bar comprises a first main bar, plural first bending parts and at least one first output part. The second linking bus bar comprises a second main bar, plural second bending parts and at least one second output part. The insulation member is disposed between the first main bar and the second main bar for insulation. The power connectors are mounted on the bending parts and connect with the power supply units. The first output part and the second output part are electrically connected with a rack bus bar of the server rack.

A bus bar assembly for a power distribution unit or other piece of electrical equipment includes a stack of bus bars configured to be attached to a surface and insulated from one another. The bus bars have aligned longitudinal centerlines and respective widths that decrease along a direction perpendicular to the surface to provide a stepped profile in cross-section. In some embodiments, the bus bars may have substantially the same cross-sectional area.

A laminated busbar includes: a base body comprising conducting layers and insulating material to electrically insulate the conducting layers from each other. The conducting layers and the insulating material are clamped together by mechanical means and/or a profile is connected to the base body. In an embodiment, no glue or adhesive is arranged between at least one conducting layer and at least one insulating material.

The present disclosure is concerned with bus bars that are provided with protrusions that allow them to be brought directly or indirectly in contact with a cooling system to remove heat generated in the bus bars themselves. The disclosure further provides a method of cooling a bus bar. The method includes providing at least one bus bar with at least one protrusion, and connecting the at least one protrusion to a cooling element.

In at least one embodiment, a busbar assembly for a vehicle is provided. The assembly includes a printed circuit board (PCB), a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate. The first plate supported on the PCB and is configured to enable a first current to flow in a first direction. The second plate is supported on the PCB and includes a first portion positioned below the first plate to enable a second current to flow in a second direction. The third plate is on the PCB and is positioned below the second plate to enable the first current to flow in the first direction. The second current that flows through the second plate is increased through an effective cross-section of the second plate when the flow of the second current in the second direction is different than the flow of the first current in the first direction.
