A charging connector for an electrical vehicle has a connector base, a tubular first conductive terminal mounted in the connector base, an insulating isolation member mounted in the first conductive terminal, and a second conductive terminal mounted in a center of the isolation member and coaxially disposed in and electrically isolated from the first conductive terminal. The isolation member has at least one annular groove recessed in an upper surface of the isolation member, extending downwardly, and coaxially surrounding the second conductive terminal. A creepage distance between the first conductive terminal and the second conductive terminal is increased and a surface area for heat dissipation is increased to meet safety specifications.

A connector assembly includes housing for storing components of the connector assembly. The connector assembly further includes a cable including a cable center conductor, wherein the cable center conductor is configured as a signal conductor. The connector assembly also includes a first dielectric and an alignment dielectric. Each of the first dielectric and the alignment dielectric includes a path to guide the cable center conductor through an angle to a printed circuit board as the cable is axially inserted into the housing.

A housing of a connector includes a first section and a second section connected to the first section and extending from the first section. The first section has a first dielectric constant. The second section has a second dielectric constant that is less than the first dielectric constant.

It is aimed to improve grounding performance. A connector device is provided with a plurality of first terminal units to be mounted on a first circuit board, a plurality of second terminal units to be mounted on a second circuit board and a plurality of movable terminal units. The first terminal unit includes a first outer conductor surrounding a first inner conductor. The second terminal unit includes a second outer conductor surrounding a second inner conductor. The movable terminal unit includes a movable outer conductor surrounding a movable inner conductor. The movable terminal unit is swingable with the second terminal unit as a fulcrum. A tip part of the movable terminal unit is connectable to the first terminal unit. The plurality of movable outer conductors are electrically conductively connected via an alignment member serving as a connecting member.

Disclosed is a battery pack having improved waterproofing performance. The battery pack includes a plurality of secondary batteries; a connector including a connection terminal configured to receive electricity from an external device or to supply power to an outside of the battery pack, and an electrically insulating body surrounding a portion of the connection terminal; a pack housing having an inner space in which the plurality of secondary batteries are accommodated and having an insert hole so that at least a part of the body of the connector is inserted therein; and a connector gasket interposed between the insert hole and the connector and having a portion that is bent at least once in one direction, the connector gasket being at least partially compressed and fixed by inserting the connector into the insert hole.

An electrical connector for connecting with a mating electrical connector in a mating direction includes an electrically conductive terminal having an electrical contact, a housing having a plug-in portion insertable into the mating electrical connector along the mating direction, the plug-in portion having a receptacle receiving the electrical contact, a compressive member arranged within the housing and compressed along the mating direction, and a connector position assurance element (CPA) slidable from an unlocked position to a locked position along the mating direction. The locked position allows the electrical connector to be locked to the mating connector when the electrical connector is connected to the mating connector. A central axis of the compressive member is aligned with a central axis of the plug-in portion in the mating direction.

A coaxial connector includes a plug and a receptacle that are electrically connectable to each other. The plug includes a first contact, a holder, a first tubular shell, and a shield member. The receptacle includes a second contact, a case, and a second tubular shell. The second contact includes a bottom portion, a pair of standing portions, and an extension. The pair of standing portions include respective contact portions having a wide shape and can clamp an end portion of the first contact. The extension includes a tip portion that is to be fixed to a substrate, a hold that is held by the case, and an elastic portion that is elastically deformable. The elastic portion can undergo elastic deformation in a direction orthogonal to a direction in which the contact portions extend.

The invention relates to a kit of parts comprising DC, low voltage system of an elongated track and a plug. The elongated track has a first and a second end and comprises an elongated slot formed by a central groove with at least one shielded lateral groove, both grooves lying in a plane P. Typically two electric conductors are accommodated in said at least one lateral groove. A connector portion of the plug having a connector cross section which matches with a cross section of the slot. Both said slot cross section and connector cross section are asymmetrical with respect to a plane Q extending over the length axis perpendicular to plane P, and at least one of the slot cross section and connector cross section is mirror symmetrical with respect to said plane P. The symmetric and asymmetric requirements posed on both the cross section of the elongated track and the connector portion of the plug ensure that the connector portion only being insertable into the first end in the axial direction and, after a rotation of 180° over its connector axis, only being insertable in the axial direction into the second end of said track, with maintenance of the correct polarity The invention further relates to a plug suitable for use in the kit of parts according to the invention.

An electrical plug provides protection against electrical surges with a replaceable surge protector cartridge that is readily removable and replaceable along an exterior of the plug. Surge protector circuitry in the cartridge can absorb an electrical surge received at the plug from an electrical mains source, and the electrical plug can maintain electrical continuity from plug prongs to an electrical cord both before and after the surge protector has absorbed an electrical surge.

The present invention relates to a cable arrangement comprising a cable that has an outer conductor, and an outer-conductor contact element that is electrically connected to the outer conductor and has a diameter change. In a region of the diameter change, the cable arrangement also has a filling element, which is electrically conductive. The filling element is configured to reduce an air inclusion in the region of the diameter change.
