Abstract: Described is a power connection device of an electric battery including a cage, a busbar and a contact pad. The cage is made from a first material chosen for its mechanical properties and rigidity. The busbar and the pad are made from a second material chosen for its electrical conduction properties. The cage also comprises spring means designed to clamp at least a portion of a tab, inserted into the cage, against the pad. A connection assembly comprising the power connection device and a tab electrically connected to a battery cell is also described.

Abstract: A connector including a housing and a terminal holding module. The terminal holding module has cavities for accommodating terminals. The terminals have a mating portion extending in a longitudinal direction. The terminal holding module is slidably mounted in the housing. The housing has a rear portion extending in a first direction for inserting the terminal holding module in the housing while the longitudinal direction is parallel to the first direction. The housing further comprises a front portion extending in a second direction for accommodating the terminal holding module in the housing in an operation position, while the longitudinal direction is parallel to the second direction which is different from the first direction.

Abstract: An electrical connection shunt assembly is designed to be coupled electrically between two electrical contact terminal connectors. The assembly includes a set of electrical current conduction elements. The set of conduction elements comprising a first terminal and a second terminal designed to be coupled with a first and a second electrical contact terminal connectors, an electrical coupling element for the first and second terminals designed to allow electrical current flow from a first terminal to the second terminal. At least one of the conduction elements comprises a shunt conduit that is arranged through the conduction element so as to have a coolant flow therein.

Abstract: A connector system is described herein. The connector system includes a first connector having a first fastener and a second connector having a second fastener cooperating with the first fastener to fasten the first connector to the second connector. The first connector includes a blocking component that is moveable between a blocking position, in which the blocking component is locked and prevents cooperation of the first fastener with the second fastener, and an non-blocking position in which the blocking component allows the first fastener to cooperate with the second fastener. The second connector includes a marker interacting with the blocking component in order to unlock the blocking component when the first and second connectors are in a position for connection, thereby allowing movement of the blocking component from the blocking position to the non-blocking position. A method of assembling such a connector system is also presented.
