A method for sealing a plug pin in a housing. The housing has at least one cutout for sealing a region between plug pin and the housing. The method includes: providing the housing having the plug pin, the plug pin contacting the housing in two edge regions of the plug pin situated opposite one another and running along a direction of insertion, and forming in the edge regions a positive-fit connection with the housing; introducing casting compound into the at least one cutout in such a way that the casting compound reaches two oppositely situated sides of the plug pin, and the casting compound seals the region between the plug pin and the housing in fluid-tight fashion, and the casting compound does not come into contact with the two ends of the plug pin situated opposite one another along the direction of insertion; and curing of the casting compound.

An arrangement for plug connecting electrical connections through a housing, particularly a device for driving a compressor. The arrangement includes a first plug connection having first plug connectors and a second plug connection having second plug connectors for transmitting electrical energy in independent transmitting ranges and a receiving element for receiving plug connectors. The receiving element having first plug connectors of the first plug connection and second plug connectors of the second plug connection is thereby implemented as an integral and cohesive unit and one-piece component.

An electrical interconnection system with high speed, high density electrical connectors. One of the connectors includes a mating contact portion that has multiple contact surface. The mating contact portion has multiple segments, each with a contact surface, such that multiple points of contact to a complementary mating contact portion in a mating connector are provided for mechanical robustness. Such a mating contact may have parallel elongated members on which the mating surface are positioned, providing for the possibility of more than two contact surface per mating contact portion. The mating contact surfaces may be positioned on the elongated members such that the points of contact are at different distances from the distal end of the mating contact portion.

A method for manufacturing a lead includes pre-forming at least one relief section along a length of an elongated conductor having a first end and an opposing second end. The conductor with the pre-formed relief section is inserted into a conductor lumen defined along a length of an elongated lead body. The lead body has a first end and an opposing second end. An electrode is disposed at the first end of the lead body. The first end of the conductor is electrically coupled to the electrode. A terminal is disposed at the second end of the lead body. The second end of the conductor is electrically coupled to the terminal.

An electrical coaxial connector system includes a plug connector and a receptacle connector. The plug connector has an elastomeric boot disposed on the plug connector having a peripheral sealing lip formed on the peripheral opening of the boot. Upon mating of the plug and receptacle connectors the boot is advanced along a mating direction and installed to a sealing position with a one handed operation and further having additional tactile feedback to indicate complete installation of the sealing boot.

A method of connecting an electric cable to a connector terminal includes arranging a connector terminal in a lower die so that an end portion of the electric cable in which a core wire is exposed from an outer cover is arranged in a barrel portion of the connector terminal, pressing a crimper to the barrel portion to crimp the barrel portion, overlapping the lower die with an upper die to form an injection space around the barrel portion and the end portion of the electric cable, and injecting a resin in an injection space, thereby forming a resin mold that covers and waterproofs the barrel portion and the end portion of the electric cable.

A process for automated contact wetting in a sensor circuit includes generating a first current through a contact by sequencing a first circuit on, the first current exceeding a wetting threshold of the contact, and reducing current through the contact to a second current by sequencing a second circuit on, the second current being below the wetting threshold.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a method of manufacturing a flexible printed interconnect board, including an insulating base film; a conductive pattern that is layered on one surface side of the base film; and a plurality of connection terminals that are fixed to a terminal connection area on one edge side of the conductive pattern, includes: fixing the plurality of connection terminals in parallel to a component fixing jig; and mounting the plurality of fixed connection terminals together with the component fixing jig.
