Abstract
A power transfer assembly includes a window balance assembly, a pivot bar, and an electrically conductive pathway. The window balance assembly includes a first portion configured to be fixed in place and a second portion configured to be movable relative to the first portion. The pivot bar is conductively coupled to the second portion of the window balance assembly. And, the electrically conductive pathway extends between the window balance assembly and the pivot bar.

An electrically dynamic system comprising:
- a first pane of transparent material;
- a second pane of transparent material;
- an electrically controllable optically active material positioned between the first pane of transparent material and the second pane of transparent material, the electrically controllable optically active material being positioned between a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer;
- and
- a power transfer assembly comprising:
- a window balance assembly including a first portion configured to be fixed in place, relative to at least one of the first pane and the second pane, and a second portion configured to be movable relative to the first portion;
- a pivot bar conductively coupled to the second portion of the window balance assembly;
- and
- an electrically conductive pathway between the window balance assembly and at least one of the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer.
