    Abstract: An EVSE assembly convertible between a charge cord and a charge station includes a charge unit having a connector of a first type, a charge station sub-assembly having a connector of a second type, and a cord set sub-assembly having a connector of the second type. The connector of the charge station sub-assembly is hard-wired to an (240V) electrical circuit. The charge unit electrically connects to the charge station sub-assembly while the connectors of the charge unit and the charge station sub-assembly are connected to one another to thereby form a (240V) charge station. The cord set sub-assembly further includes a power plug connectable to (one of a 120V and 240V) electrical outlet. The charge unit electrically connects to the cord set sub-assembly while the connectors of the charge unit and the cord set sub-assembly are connected to one another to thereby form a (120V or 240V) cord set.

    Abstract: A vehicle seat assembly has a vehicle seat with a seat base and a seat back. The vehicle seat has at least one actuator configured to move one of the seat back and seat base along a path between a first position and a second position. A sensor has a generally planar surface defining a sensing area. A controller is in communication with the actuator and the sensor. The controller is configured to, in response to receiving a sliding input on the sensing area, control the at least one actuator to move the one of the seat back and seat base along the path.

    Abstract: A direct current/alternating current (DC/AC) inverter system includes a primary DC-DC converter that receives an input DC voltage and a secondary DC/AC inverter. The primary DC-DC converter includes a plurality of switching networks and a plurality of transformers having a plurality of primary windings and a plurality of secondary windings. Characteristically, the plurality of secondary windings is arranged in series to provide a first output and a second output. A resonant LC circuit is connected in series with the first output and the second output. A rectifier rectifies an AC voltage between the first output and the second output to form a first rectified output. The secondary DC/AC inverter receives the first rectified output or filtered output thereof and provides a high voltage AC output. A controller mediates switching of the plurality of switching networks.
