CARD-EDGE CONNECTOR SYSTEM WITH BUSBAR CONNECTION FOR HIGH-POWER APPLICATIONS
20230006379 · 2023-01-05 · ·

A connector that enables electronic assemblies to be efficiently configured for any of multiple power requirements. The connector may have multiple interfaces such that when the connector is mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB), it may receive power through an interface and distribute it to components on the PCB through another interface. The connector may also have an interface that supports a connection to a conductive interconnect, which may distribute power to a second connector mounted to the same PCB. Power may be distributed to components mounted to the PCB without passing through the mounting interface of the first connector. As a result, the current density in the PCB adjacent the first connector is reduced relative to current density required to supply current to all components through the mounting interface of the first connector. The PCB may have fewer layers than a conventional PCB assembly supporting comparable functionality.

STACKABLE POWER OUTLET BOX
20230238755 · 2023-07-27 ·

A stackable storage system is disclosed. The system includes a base storage container disposed on a wheeled cart, and one or more additional storage containers removably secured on top of the base container. The system further includes a power outlet box which is interchangeably securable in the system with the other storage containers. The power outlet box includes an extendable AC power cord which may be plugged into a wall outlet, and one or more electrical output plugs, include AC outlets and USB outlets which are powered by the AC power cord. The power outlet box and other containers are securable to each other by a spring loaded latch system. The power outlet box is also usable separate with a storage container having an overhead carry handle allowing both the container and power box to be transportable together.
