  • the first end portion, the second end portion, and the intermediate portion, if present are made of a metal, preferably copper, and/or the first end portion, the second end portion, and the intermediate portion, if present are formed as a monolithic piece. This makes it possible, for example, to easily manufacture the conductive link and/or to give the conductive link a higher stability.
  • the first end portion and the second end portion are configured so that the first end portion is able to hold the second end portion of the other conductive link of the conductive chain by form fit and/or by press fit. This makes it possible, for example, to avoid that the first end portion and the second end portion separate from each other by themselves.

  • This makes it possible, for example, to break an electrical interconnection formed by a conductive chain comprising a plurality of conductive links connected to each other, for example between the battery and electrical loads such as the electrical motor of an electrical vehicle, in the state on an accident of the vehicle.
  • This makes it possible, for example, to automatically interrupt a current flow from the battery to the motor, thus increasing safety in the case of an accident.
  • the first end portion is covered with an electrically insulating material, preferably a plastic, and a bowl of an electrically insulating material, preferably a plastic, is formed at the second end portion.
  • the bowl is formed to protrude further in the longitudinal direction L than the free end of the second end portion.
  • the bowl is further formed to be able to accommodate the first end portion of another conductive link of the conductive chain which is connected to the second end portion.

  • the connection portion is configured to be accommodated in and held by the first end portion of a conductive link.
  • the terminal portion is configured to establish an electrical connection to an external device.
  • Such a terminal link makes it possible, for example, to connect a conductive chain formed by a plurality of conductive links for example to the battery and electrical loads such as the electrical motor of an electrical vehicle. Establishing an electrical connection in this way makes it possible, for example to reduce a current loss during a normal operation and to increase safety in the case of an accident.
  • the conductive chain according to the invention comprises a plurality of conductive links connected to each other, and preferably at least one terminal link connected to the first one and/or the last one of the conductive links forming the chain.
  • Such a chain makes it possible, for example, to establish an electrical connection, for example between the battery and electrical loads such as the electrical motor of an electrical vehicle. Establishing an electrical connection in this way makes it possible, for example to reduce a current loss during a normal operation and to increase safety in the case of an accident.
  • an electrical connection between the battery and electrical loads such as the electrical motor is made by a conductor having a modular design.
  • the conductor is realized as a conductive chain comprising a plurality of conductive links.
  • Fig. 1 shows a sectional view of two conductive links in a state in which they are separated from each other.
  • Each conductive link 10a, 10b have the same construction.
  • Each conductive link comprises a first end portion 11 and a second end portion 12 arranged opposite to each other in a longitudinal direction L, and an intermediate portion 13 arranged between the first end portion 11 and the second end portion 12 and connecting the first end portion 11 and the second end portion 12 to each other.
  • the first end portion 11, the second end portion 12 and the intermediate portion 13 are made of an electrically conductive material.
  • the conductive material may be a metal, preferably copper.
  • the copper has a high purity of at least 99.9 %.
  • the first end portion 11, the second end portion 12 and the intermediate portion 13 are formed as a monolithic piece of material.
  • the first end portion 11 has a concavely formed section 15.
  • the concave section 15 has an inner surface in the shape of a spherical segment. The segment extends over more than a half-sphere so that the maximum diameter is not at the outer end 11a (left end in Fig. 1 ) of the first end portion 11. In other words, the maximum diameter is at a distance from the outer end 11a of the
  • the second end portion 12 has a convexly formed section 16.
  • the convex section 16 has an outer surface in the shape of a spherical segment. Also here, the maximum diameter is not at the outer end (right end in Fig. 1 ) of the second end portion 12.
  • the function of a gap 17 shown in the second end portion 12 is described later with reference to Fig. 4
  • the intermediate portion 13 has a cylindrical shape.
  • the first end portion 11 and the intermediate portion 13 are covered with an electrically insulating material 18, preferably a plastic.
  • the insulating material 18 also covers at least an outer portion of the exposed free end 11a of the first end portion 11.
  • a bowl 19 of the electrically insulating material is formed in the shape of a spherical shell segment at the second end portion 12 so that it protrudes further in the longitudinal direction L than the second end portion 12.
  • the insulating cover 18 and the insulating bowl 19 are formed as a monolithic piece of material.
  • Fig. 2 shows a sectional view of the two conductive links in a state in which they are connected to each other.
  • the convex section 16 of the second end portion 12 of the conductive link 10a (left in Fig. 2 ) is accommodated in the concave section 15 of the first end portion 11 of the conductive link 10b (right in Fig. 2 ).
  • the diameters of the spherical segments of the inner surface of the concave section 15 and the outer surface of the convex section 16 are approximately equal so that a low electrical transition resistance is achieved between the conductive links 10a, 10b in the connected state.
  • the bowl 19 surrounding the second end portion 12 of the conductive link 10a is formed large enough so that it can accommodate the first end portion 11 of the conductive link 10b.
  • the maximum diameter of the first end portion 11 is not at the outer end, some force is required to push the second end portion 12 of the conductive link 10a into the first end portion 11 of the conductive link 10b. Due to the same reason, the second end portion 12 cannot easily free itself from the first end portion 11, but engages in the concave section 15 and thus is held by the first end portion 11 in the connected state. In order to disengage the connection, some force is required, too.
  • the first end portion 11 and the second end portion 12 thus are held together by form fit or positive fit. Depending on the dimensions used, they may also be held together by press fit or friction fit.
  • the inner surface of the concave section 15 and the outer surface of the convex section 16 are formed as spherical segments, they together form a spheroid joint or ball and socket joint. It is therefore possible to move the second end portion 12 of the conductive link 10a within the first end portion 11 of the conductive link 10b in a way that an angle between the longitudinal direction L of the conductive link 10b and the longitudinal direction L of the conductive link 10a can be changed to a certain amount, i.e. the two conductive links may be pivoted or articulated with regard to each other, while the two conductive links 10a, 10b remain in the connected state.
  • Fig. 3 shows a lateral view of the first end portion 11 of the conductive link 10.
  • the first end portion 11 has a rotationally symmetric shape so that the lateral view shows all the elements as circles.
  • the free end 11a of the first end portion 11 is shown, surrounded and partly covered by the insulating cover 18.
  • the concave section 15 can be seen.
  • the rear of the insulating bowl 19 surrounding the second end portion is shown.
  • Fig. 4 shows a lateral view of the second end portion 12 of the conductive link 10.
  • the second end portion 12 generally has a rotationally symmetric shape so that its elements are shown as circles, or at least as circle segment.
  • the second end portion 12 comprises four partial segments 41-44 which extend in the longitudinal direction of the conductive link 10 and are separated from each other by gaps 46-49.
  • the gap 17 shown in Figs. 1 and 2 corresponds to one of those gaps 46-49.
  • each of the partial segments 41-44 has a smaller cross-section than the entire second end portion 12 and are separated from each other, they are elastically deformable to a higher degree than a massive or solid second end portion 12 would be. This facilitates the introduction of the convex section 16 of the second end portion 12 into the concave 15 of the first end portion 11.
