Pluggable Current Transmission Assembly for 100 A Connectors

The terminal structure is divided into multiple electrically conductive arms (first conductive arm, second conductive arm, third conductive arm, fourth conductive arm) with separate contact terminals. Each arm can independently carry current, effectively segmenting the current path to increase overall current carrying capacity while maintaining manageable structural complexity through modular design

The patent transitions from conventional single-plane terminal arrangements to a three-dimensional configuration where contact terminals are positioned at different spatial locations and orientations. The electrically conductive arms extend in multiple directions from the housing, creating a multi-dimensional current transmission pathway that increases capacity without proportionally increasing structural complexity

Instead of increasing cross-sectional area in a single plane, the patent utilizes three-dimensional space by positioning contact terminals at different heights and angles. The electrically conductive arms extend outward and upward from the housing, creating vertical and angular separation that increases effective current carrying capacity without proportionally increasing overall volume

The electrically conductive arms are nested within or around the housing structure, with some arms positioned inside the housing and others extending outward. This nested arrangement allows multiple current paths to share the same volumetric space, increasing current carrying capacity while minimizing the increase in overall device volume
