Various disclosed embodiments include cover assemblies for an electrical busbar connection, busbar connector assemblies, and battery systems. In an illustrative embodiment, a cover assembly for an electrical busbar connection includes an electrically insulative busbar cover configured to receive therein an end of an electrical busbar. Electrically insulative fastener receptacles extend from the busbar cover, each fastener receptacle being sized to receive therein a fastener assembly, each fastener receptacle defining therein a first opening at a first end distal the busbar cover and a second opening at a second end proximal the busbar cover, the first opening being sized to permit insertion therethrough of a tool to turn a fastener assembly, the first opening being further sized to prevent insertion therethrough of a finger of a human. Electrically insulative retaining tabs extend into an interior of each of the fastener receptacles intermediate the first opening and the second opening.

So it's a thingy that keeps me from shocking myself by sticking my fingers where I shouldn't.

Got it.

These patents are always interesting, but its tough to know what will actually make it to production

Pretty sure the 180 degree tailgate will NOT be in the production vehicle.

Pretty sure the 180 degree tailgate will NOT be in the production vehicle.

That does not appear to be the same hinge system shown on the show truck as the 180 gate. The one above looks to rotate from the mid point, releasing from the base.

Pretty sure the 180 degree tailgate will NOT be in the production vehicle.

Correct and if you look closely at that pic, that is a completely different type of movement.

 

[Rhidan]

Pretty sure the 180 degree tailgate will NOT be in the production vehicle.

Correct. If it wasn't clear, I was posting that as an example of something in the patents that doesn't look like it will make production.

 

[kanundrum]

Latest, had to use some translation from German to English.

 

[Pherdnut]

Man, I liked 180 gate. Hope they can make it work eventually.

I wonder how this is different from GM's wireless battery management system.

 

[kanundrum]

From what I read its more similar to a powerwall.

Hmmm, I can see that after reading it again. Interesting.

 

[godfodder0901]

Agree. Maybe this is for the second life application they talked about in partnership with the Honnold Foundation..
