摘要: A breakaway mitigation system is provided for addressing breakaway between a tractor and a trailer unit of a truck. The breakaway mitigation system can include a spool assembly, a sensor, and a controller. The spool assembly has a spool body configured to deploy a length of a tether coupled with the spool body and configured to couple with an energy source supply conduit and to retract the length of the tether. The energy source supply conduit is configured to convey a source of energy for use by a motor or by a fuel cell. The sensor is configured to detect the length of the tether that has been deployed. The controller is configured to receive an input corresponding to the detected length and to implement a countermeasure when the detected amount exceeds a threshold value. Mitigation can be provided by a coupler that decouples under a load over a threshold.

摘要: A battery assembly for an electric vehicle is provided that includes a housing, one or more battery units, and a mounting system. The one or more battery units are disposed within the housing. The mounting system is disposed adjacent to a top surface, e.g., on a planar top surface or within an upwardly oriented concavity. The mounting system has a frame member bracket and a housing bracket system. The housing bracket system includes a housing bracket, a load member and a vibration isolator. The housing bracket is configured to be coupled to the frame member bracket. The load member has a first portion disposed adjacent to an upper surface and a second portion disposed along a lateral portion of the housing. The vibration isolator is disposed between the load member and the housing bracket. The vibration isolator is configured to reduce load transmission from the frame member of the vehicle to the housing.

摘要: A power distribution assembly includes a mounting system and a power distribution unit. The mounting system has a frame rail interface disposed along lateral sides of the power distribution assembly. The power distribution unit has a housing and a cable junction disposed on an exterior of the housing. The housing has an upper portion coupled with the frame rail interface and a lower portion disposed below the mounting system. The power distribution unit has one or more fuses, a contactor, and a charge circuit disposed in the housing. The lower portion of the housing has an access panel accessible from beneath a vehicle to which the power distribution assembly is coupled. Such access may be gained by removing a debris deflector and the housing. The power distribution assembly can be electrically coupled with a battery assembly and a charge inlet assembly, which can be coupled to the battery assembly.
