  • Patent number: 10566874
    Abstract: The rotary electrical machine comprises, in front, a pulley (3) secured to a shaft (9) of a rotor (20) passing through the front bearing (1a) of a housing. The bearing includes a base, having a nose (18) for mounting a front ball bearing (7) for rotating the shaft (9), and air inlets (15) defined by arms belonging to an outwardly opening area connecting a peripheral strip of material from the base to the nose (18) in order to shift the nose (18) toward the front in accordance with the central body of a device (100) for adjusting the tension of a belt received in the groove (31) of the pulley (3) and attached onto the housing (1a, 1b). The adjustment device (100) comprises at least one idler (200, 201) for tensioning the belt and a central opening (102) enabling passage of air through the air inlets (15).

  • Patent number: 8932086
    Abstract: A battery terminal lug (1) is disclosed, the lug being equipped with a shunt (7) for measuring the battery current and other battery characteristics. The lug includes a support (8), such as for a printed circuit, of at least one electronic component. The lug is made up of a first part (2), which is configured to be secured to a terminal of the battery, and a second part, which is configured to be secured to the cable of the battery (which is ordinarily directly associated with the terminal of the battery). The two parts (2, 3) of the terminal lug are electrically insulated from one another and are provided with projecting portions (28, 38) to bear the shunt (7), and a casing (5, 6) to accommodate the shunt (7) and the support (8), wherein electrical insulation (4, 17) is positioned so as to intervene between the two parts (2, 3) of the terminal lug (1).
