  • Publication number: 20260042486
    Abstract: One or more aspects of the present application relate to the configuration or management of an integrated component that provides structural component functionality for a vehicle, such as a cross member that absorbs loads placed on the vehicle. Additionally, the integrated component illustratively further provides air reservoir functionality that for one or more additional vehicle components. By way of illustrative embodiment, the integrated component can illustratively provide structural component functionality associated with a cross member mounted between shock towers and air reservoir functionality to provide compression air such as for active or semi-active vehicle suspension systems.

  • Patent number: 12208837
    Abstract: Some examples relate to the configuration or management of an integrated component that provides structural component functionality for a vehicle, such as a cross member that absorbs loads placed on the vehicle. Additionally, the integrated component illustratively further provides air reservoir functionality that for one or more additional vehicle components. In some examples, an integrated component can provide structural component functionality associated with a cross member mounted between shock towers and air reservoir functionality to provide compression air such as for active or semi-active vehicle suspension systems.

  • Publication number: 20240396125
    Abstract: The disclosed technology is directed to a system for positively pressurizing a battery pack when the battery pack is submerged. In some embodiments, during a submersion event, a sensor detects a pressure inside the battery pack to generate a signal indicating the pressure inside the battery pack. The sensor then transmits the first signal to a pressure controller. The pressure controller adjusts the pressure inside the battery pack within a range based on the first signal to prevent ingress of liquid into the battery pack during the submersion event.
