A wall mountable connector for securing a thermostat to a wall is disclosed. The wall mountable connector provides electrical connections between the wall mountable connector and a plurality of field wires that are operably coupled with HVAC equipment. The wall mountable connector also providing electrical connections between the wall mountable connector and the thermostat. The wall mountable connector includes a door that is movable between an open position in which the electrical connections with the field wires are accessible and a closed position in which the electrical connections with the field wires are not accessible and/or visible to the user.

Among other things, there is a stationary light source, a stationary aperture between the light source and a projection surface, and a device to modulate light from the light source that passes through the aperture and strikes the projection surface to cause a light effect on the projection surface. In some cases, projected motion and/or twinkling effects are produced in a simple, low-cost and durable manner.

A contact system for plug-in connections on electronics housings (1) for making contact with mechatronic components of motor vehicles, includes at least one contact element (13) formed of a punched part, with which contact is made on a printed circuit board (5) and which is routed out of a housing (2). For the purpose of making releasable contact with the mechatronic components, flexibly compensating for relative movements of the contacts, and allowing cost-effective production and processing without the use of special technical apparatuses, the at least one contact element (13) is designed to be fastened to a base plate (2) of the electronics housing (1) by insertion and latching, make contact with a plug-in contact (23) of a mechatronic component by way of a first contact lug (14), and make contact with the printed circuit board (5) by way of a second contact lug (20).

Exemplary drone operations support base embodiments disclosed herein may be used to shelter, repower and/or service drones associated therewith. A drone operations support base may include an enclosure with an entryway that permits drone ingress and egress with respect to the enclosure. Drone launching/landing, drone storage and drone power source repowering areas may be associated with a given drone base. A transfer device may be provided to move drones between the various drone base areas. The transfer device may also be adapted to transfer drone power sources between the drone repowering area and drones located elsewhere within the drone base for repowering of the power sources and of the drones.

Exemplary drone power pack housing/assembly embodiments and drone power pack embodiments disclosed herein are standardized, common form factor, devices. Exemplary power packs and power pack housings may be modular in nature such that components thereof may be shared. Exemplary power packs and power pack housings may be used on a multitude of drones to facilitate repowering and servicing. Exemplary power packs and power pack housings may be designed to also facilitate installation to and removal from a drone by automated means.

A simple female terminal includes a mounting base, a weld leg, and an elastic plate. One end of the mounting base bends to form the weld leg. Another end of the mounting base bends to form the elastic plate. A head of the elastic plate bends toward the mounting base to form a contact head. While a male terminal comes into contact with the elastic plate, the contact head is pushed by the male terminal so that the contact head can rest against the mounting base. A connector and an LED lamp adapted to the simple female terminal are also disclosed. The structure of the female terminal is simplified, so the structure of the connector and the LED lamp are also simplified to obtain an easy installation and reduce the cost.
