  • Patent number: 11725810
    Abstract: A heat sink for a luminaire includes a central portion having a top surface and a bottom surface. The bottom surface is adapted to receive a lighting arrangement. The heat sink further includes a plurality of arms configured to dissipate heat generated by the lighting arrangement. The plurality of arms extend radially outward from the central portion. Each one of the plurality of arms is substantially arcuate between a proximal end and a distal end.

  • Publication number: 20230187160
    Abstract: A power fuse for protecting an electrical load subject to transient load current cycling events in a direct current electrical power system is provided. The power fuse includes at least one fuse element assembly that includes one or more substrates, one or more sets of weak spots, and a conductor. The weak spots are formed on the substrates, and the substrates are longitudinally spaced apart from one another along the conductor. The conductor is separately provided from the substrate and the weak spots. The conductor includes one or more strips of metal having no stamped weak spot openings therein and therefore avoiding thermal-mechanical fatigue strain in the conductor when subjected to the transient load current cycling events. The conductor includes connector sections that are attached to respective ones of the sets of weak spots, and extending sections coupling the connector sections.

  • Patent number: 11636993
    Abstract: A power fuse for protecting an electrical load subject to transient load current cycling events in a direct current electrical power system is provided. The power fuse includes at least one fuse element assembly that includes an elongated planar substrate, a plurality of fusible weak spots, and a conductor. The weak spots are formed on the substrate and are longitudinally spaced from one another on the substrate. The conductor is separately provided from the substrate and the weak spots. The conductor includes a solid elongated strip of metal having no stamped weak spot openings therein and therefore avoiding thermal-mechanical fatigue strain in the conductor when subjected to the transient load current cycling events. The solid elongated strip of metal includes coplanar connector sections that are mounted to respective ones of the weak spots and obliquely extending sections bent out of plane of the connector sections to extend above the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20220337070
    Abstract: A method includes interpreting a contactor open event and a contactor load value for a contactor positioned on a motive power circuit for a mobile application, determining that a contactor opening event under load has occurred in response to the contactor open event and the contactor load value, and updating a contactor wear condition in response to the contactor opening event under load, wherein updating the contactor wear condition comprises accumulating a number of the contactor opening events under load.
