A cable with ends having a body portion enabling rotatable electrical connector plugs to be deployed from a stored position to a ready position. The configuration of the body portion enables the connector plug to be electrically active only in the deployed ready position. The rotation mechanism provides tactile locking sensation. The design of the present cable enables multiple permutations of connector plugs to be provided on either the alpha or beta end of the cable.

The invention concerns a rack module for forming a support column, such as a rack, by stacking at least two rack modules, the rack module having at least one site for receiving a device for administering a medical product, this site comprising at least one plug for electric current supply to the administering device and for data transfer. It is also provided with an inlet connector and an outlet connector for connecting two successive modules to each other, power lines and data transfer lines connecting the inlet connector with the plug of the sites on the one hand side and with the outlet connector on the other hand side. In order to improve the connection between the rack modules in order to make its use easier, it is suggested according to the invention that the inlet connector or the outlet connector is movable between a stocking position and a connected position, the movable connector being called mobile connector and the other connector being called second connector, wherein, when a second module is placed over or under the module, the mobile connector in the connected position is in connection with the second connector of a second module placed over or under the module. This allows to stock in a safe position one of the connectors so that during the stocking and the handling of the module there is no risk for it to be damaged.

The invention relates to a plug connector having a housing, from which a first plug emerges, which is fixedly arranged relative to the housing, wherein a second plug that can be slid along a displacement surface of the housing is arranged on the housing such that the relative position between the first plug and the second plug can be changed.

A flexible electronic apparatus includes a housing, a roller received in the housing, and a main body wound around the roller. The roller is coupled to an end cover provided with a functional component. The roller is rotated relative to the end cover to expand or retract the main body. The end cover is provided with conductive rails electrically coupled to the functional component. The roller is provided with conductive terminals corresponding to the conductive rails. The conductive terminals are slidably connected to the conductive rails and slide along the conductive rails as the roller rotates.

A flexible electronic apparatus is provided. The flexible electronic apparatus includes a housing, a roller received in the housing, a main body connected to the roller, and a driving member connected to the roller. The driving member is connected to the roller and drives the roller to rotate relative to the housing. The main body is capable of retracting into or extending from the housing via a rotation of the roller.
