US Patent:

40405117, Aug 9, 1977

Filed:

Sep 5, 1975

Appl. No.:

5/610905

Inventors:

Herbert R. Beaven - Los Altos CA
Daniel M. Roberts - Saratoga CA

Assignee:

Rockwell International Corporation - El Segundo CA

International Classification:

B41J 1500

US Classification:

197133R

Abstract:

A paper feeding mechanism for selectively advancing paper a predetermined distance past a printing station of an electronic business machine. The paper feeding mechanism is adapted to utilize a supply of fan folded paper, e. g. , housed in a disposable cartridge, which may be readily inserted within the paper feeding mechanism to place the electronic business machine in readiness for operation. During the printing cycle, a contact mechanism maintains a portion of the paper in contact with the printing station of the electronic business machine. After the printing occurs, an actuation mechanism is energized to move the contact mechanism away from the printing station to free the paper for advancement. At the same time, the actuation mechanism moves an advancement mechanism to advance the paper a predetermined distance past the printing station of the electronic business machine.

Abstract:

Exemplary bus bar assemblies may be used to electrically couple adjacent components of electrified vehicle traction battery packs, for example. An exemplary bus bar assembly includes a flexible braided design that may be packaged out of position and secured via a clip for shipping and handling and then folded into a position suitable for traction battery pack component assembly. Another exemplary bus bar assembly includes a semi-rigid design having tight tolerances and reliefs designed into the part to allow for fastening two adjacent traction battery pack components in a specific order to allow for component overlapping.

Abstract:

A traction battery assembly includes battery cells of a battery array, and switches of the battery array. The switches are transitionable between a first configuration and a second configuration. When the switches are in the first configuration, the battery cells of the array are partitioned into a first number of groups of battery cells in parallel with each other. When the switches are in the second configuration, the battery cells of the array are partitioned into a different, second number of groups of battery cells in parallel with each other.
