Assembly for power connection and signal acquisition
View Patent ↗An assembly for power connection and signal acquisition includes a power connection member and a patch panel. The power connection member includes a holder, a plurality of connection pieces disposed in the holder, and a protection shell mounted on the holder to protect the plurality of connection pieces. The patch panel includes a trough that defines a plurality of cable slots, a sampling cable received in each of the cable slots, and a protection cover mounted on the trough to protect the sampling cable received in the cable slot. A sampling terminal is disposed at an end of the sampling cable for electrically connecting the sampling cable with each of the connection pieces.
1. An assembly for power connection and signal acquisition, comprising:
a power connection member comprising a holder, a plurality of connection pieces disposed in the holder and a protection shell mounted on the holder to protect the plurality of connection pieces;
a patch panel comprising:
a trough defining a plurality of cable slots;
a sampling cable received in each of the cable slots, wherein a sampling terminal is disposed at an end of the sampling cable for electrically connecting the sampling cable with each of the connection pieces; and
a protection cover mounted on the trough to protect the sampling cable received in the cable slot;
wherein the holder defines a plurality of mounting regions, the connection pieces are mounted in the mounting regions respectively, each of the mounting regions is defined by a bottom plate and a side plate disposed at a periphery of the bottom plate, and
wherein an outer surface of the bottom plate of each mounting region is configured to mount a battery, the bottom plate is configured to support the connection piece, and the side plate is configured to clamp the connection piece in a lateral direction;
wherein the side plate includes a clamping tongue configured to clamp the connection piece, a boss configured to secure the protection shell, and a notch for receiving the sampling terminal.
2. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein adjacent mounting regions are connected via a first flexible connection.
3. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the protection shell defines a plurality of piece-covering regions configured to cover the connection pieces respectively, and wherein adjacent piece-covering regions are connected via a second flexible connection.
