Abstract: An arrangement for charging of electric vehicles includes a charging connector and a charging cable. The connector includes a connector body with first and second zones, the two zones being separate from each other. The first zone hosts a mating interface with electrical contacts for mating the connector with a corresponding socket of an electric vehicle. The electrical contacts are electrically coupled to the cable. The second zone includes a tube in which the cable is guided from an opening of the tube, which is arranged on that side of the second zone that faces away from the first zone to the electrical contacts, which are located in the first zone, and a handle for grabbing the connector with a human hand, the handle being separate from the tube. The second zone is Y-shaped where the tube is formed by one upper leg and the lower of the Y.

Abstract: A system and method for a liquid cooled cable arrangement for high-power fast charging of electric vehicles includes a charging connector and a liquid cooled charging cable. The cable comprises several insulated positive and negative conductors for supplying charging current, an inner fluid channel and an outer fluid channel surrounding the inner fluid channel. The positive and negative conductors are arranged within the inner fluid channel. The charging connector includes at least a positive contact electrically connected to the positive conductors by a first connecting element, and a negative contact electrically connected to the negative conductors by a second connecting element. The first and second connecting elements include a thermally conductive and electrically conductive material and are electrically isolated from each other. The first and second connecting elements are thermally connected to the inner and outer fluid channels.
