  • Patent number: 11536771
    Abstract: The current sensor includes a battery terminal part that has electrical conductivity and is fastened to a battery post constituting a negative electrode of a battery, and a shunt resistor that is conductively connected to the battery terminal part via a joint part, the shunt resistor including a first detection terminal and a second detection terminal for detecting an electric current. The battery terminal part includes a third detection terminal for detecting a voltage of the battery between the joint part and the battery post. As a result, the current sensor can properly detect a voltage of the battery together with an electric current.

  • Publication number: 20190369143
    Abstract: A current sensor includes a housing with a bus bar. The housing with a bus bar includes a housing formed of an insulating resin material and a first bus bar and a second bus bar that are inserted into the housing. A recess portion is formed in the housing. A first exposed portion of the first bus bar and a second exposed portion of the second bus bar are exposed in the recess portion. A shunt resistor electrically connects the first exposed portion and the second exposed portion to each other in a state where the shunt resistor is accommodated in the recess portion.
