Publication number: 20230249634Abstract: A flexible planar wire cable includes a first flexible planar wire having first conductor segments contained in a first longitudinal plane and second conductor segments contained in a second longitudinal plane. First connection segments extend between the first conductor segments and the second conductor segments. The first conductor segments alternate with second conductor segments along a longitudinal axis of the wire harness assembly. The cable further includes a second flexible planar wire having third conductor segments contained in the second longitudinal plane and fourth conductor segments contained in the first longitudinal plane. Second connection segments extend between the third conductor segments and the fourth conductor segments. The third conductor segments alternate with the fourth conductor segments along the longitudinal axis of the flexible planar wire cable. The cable also includes an insulating layer separating and encasing the first and second flexible planar wires.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Inventors: Jared Bilas, Kurt P. Seifert, David G. Siegfried, David R. Peterson, Frank W. Szuba, JR., Mark Intihar

Patent number: 11654842Abstract: A wiring harness assembly includes a first flexible planar wire cable having a first plurality of separated conductors formed in a first insulating layer comprising a first substantially flat exterior surface, a second flexible planar wire cable having a second plurality of separated conductors formed in a second insulating layer comprising a second substantially flat exterior surface, and a first plurality of apertures formed in the first substantially flat exterior surface and a second plurality of apertures formed in the second substantially flat exterior surface. The first and second plurality of apertures are sized, shaped, and arranged such that an electrical connection is made between the first and second plurality of separated conductors through the first and second plurality of apertures.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2021Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: APTIV TECHNOLOGIES LIMITEDInventors: Jared Bilas, Kurt P. Seifert, David G. Siegfried, David R. Peterson, Frank W. Szuba, Jr., Mark Intihar

Patent number: 11225206Abstract: A wiring harness assembly includes a first flexible planar wire cable. The first flexible planar wire cable has a first plurality of separated conductors formed in a first insulating layer. The first insulating layer includes a first flat exterior surface. The first flat exterior surface defines first apertures that expose at least a portion the first plurality of separated conductors. The first apertures are sized, shaped, and arranged such that arranging a second flat exterior surface of a second flexible planar wire cable in contact with the first flat exterior surface enables an electrical connection between the first plurality of separated conductors and a second plurality of separated conductors formed in a second insulating layer of the second flexible planar wire cable.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2019Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Inventors: Jared Bilas, Kurt P. Seifert, David G. Siegfried, David R. Peterson, Frank W. Szuba, Jr., Mark Intihar

Patent number: 10547143Abstract: A wiring-harness includes an electrical-connector and a staging-device. The staging-device has a cavity defining a flexible-member in compressive contact with the electrical-connector. The flexible-member is configured to removably retain the electrical-connector within the cavity. The cavity locates the electrical-connector in a predetermined-position within the staging-device, such that the electrical-connector is presented to an assembler in the predetermined-position. The staging-device is particularly useful in automated, i.e. robotic, installation of the wiring-harness.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2019Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignee: APTIV TECHNOLOGIES LIMITEDInventors: David R. Peterson, Joseph Sudik, Jr., Frank Walter Szuba, Jr., Mark Intihar, Benjamin Decker, Andrew Kneppers
