ELECTRIC VEHICLE COOLING SYSTEM

An electric motor vehicle cooling system is described that cycles liquid coolant from a charging station into the vehicle and back, to cool the batteries during charging. The liquid coolant is pumped by a pump in the charging station through channels in the cable that is plugged into the vehicle. The cable has an adaptor with ports to allow the coolant to exit the charging station, travel into the vehicle to cool the batteries, and return back into the charging station from the vehicle. The charging station cools the coolant using a chiller. This cooling system allows the charging station to perform most of the work of cooling the vehicle batteries, without overly taxing the vehicle's on-board thermal management systems.
