Patent number: 9368651Abstract: A buss bar strip for mounting to a solar panel to electrically connect to a series of electrical lines extending from solar cells. The buss bar strip can include a thin elongate flat flexible strip of insulative material having a longitudinal length. A predetermined pattern of elongate conductors can be longitudinally disposed on the insulative strip in at least two rows along the longitudinal length and electrically isolated from each other. Each conductor can have a predetermined position, length, and spacing from each other on the insulative strip for laterally electrically connecting to selected electrical lines from the solar cells at lateral electrical connection points located along the length of the conductor on exposed surfaces on the conductor.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2015Date of Patent: June 14, 2016Assignee: Antaya Technologies CorporationInventors: Stephen C. Antaya, Manuel H. Machado, Matthew Jarod Scherer

Patent number: 7438610Abstract: A grounding connector includes a base with a first crimping structure extending from the base for crimping to the cable and securing the cable relative to the base along a cable axis. A first contact member can extend from the base laterally adjacent to the first crimping structure. The first contact member can have a narrowing first cable slot for receiving the cable to engage and form electrical contact with the cable when the first crimping structure is crimped to the cable.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2007Date of Patent: October 21, 2008Assignee: Antaya Technologies CorporationInventors: Manuel H.

Publication number: 20040158981Abstract: A connector device is shaped or formed to include bendable flaps for securing one or more conductors when the flaps are crimped. Typically, the connector device includes a base having an external surface that is eventually affixed to a complementary shaped surface. Accordingly, a conductor can be attached to the complementary shaped surface. For example, one or more conductors can be crimped via the connector device, which is thereafter attached to a complementary surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 18, 2004Publication date: August 19, 2004Applicant: Antaya Technologies CorporationInventors: Stephen C.
