System, method, and apparatus for power distribution in an electric mobile application using a combined breaker and relay
Abstract:
A mobile application including a motive power circuit including a power storage device and an electrical load electrically coupled through a power bus; a power distribution unit (PDU) electrically interposed between the power storage device and the electrical load, wherein the PDU comprises a breaker/relay positioned on one of a high side and a low side of the power storage device; wherein the breaker/relay comprises: a fixed contact electrically coupled to the power bus; a movable contact selectively electrically coupled to the fixed contact; an armature operationally coupled to the movable contact; a first biasing member biasing the armature into one of the first position or the second position; and a means for adjusting a down force value of the movable contact during run-time operations of the motive power circuit, wherein the down force value biases the moveable contact into electrical coupling with the fixed contact.
