KELVIN-VERBINDUNGSSTECKER MIT TEMPERATURSENSOR

摘要

The electrical measuring apparatus ( 17 ) and temperature sensing apparatus minimises the number of connections required for each contact ( 30, 31 ) of a battery ( 18 ). The present invention measures the core temperature of the battery ( 18 ) which is useful in monitoring the health of the battery ( 18 ). The apparatus comprises first connection means to connect to the first contact ( 30 ) of the battery ( 18 ) and second connection means to connect to the second contact ( 31 ) of the battery ( 18 ). The apparatus includes a thermistor ( 36 ) which connects in series with one lead ( 32 ) of the connecting means. Accordingly, the apparatus does not require the temperature sensor ( 36 ) to be independently connected to the battery ( 18 ).
