Methods and apparatus that can allow an electronic device housed in a protective accessory to communicate with another electronic device, and are readily manufactured. An example can provide a connector assembly that can include a number of top contacts electrically connected to a corresponding number of bottom contacts. The top contacts can be spaced at a first pitch while the bottom contacts can be spaced at a second pitch, the second pitch different than the first pitch.

A power adapter configured to apply power to a device is disclosed. The power adapter comprises a switching module having a recess comprising a first set of contacts for receiving control signals, wherein the switching module comprises a switch for selectively applying power to a device based upon the control signals; and a control module removably coupled to the switching module and having a second set of contacts coupled to the first set of contacts of the switching module when the control module is attached to the switching module; wherein the switching module comprises a user interface element.

An electrical connector has a test terminal, a positive terminal, and a negative terminal coaxially mounted in a connector base. The negative terminal surrounds the positive terminal. An insulating cap is mounted between the positive terminal and the negative terminal. A pair of turning engaging parts is formed between the ring body of the insulating cap and the internal surface of the negative terminal and the turning engaging parts are engaged with each other to assemble the insulating cap with the negative terminal by turning the insulating cap. An annular groove is formed in a top of the insulating cap to increase a creepage distance between the negative terminal and the positive terminal to meet requirement of safety specifications.

An audio plug which comprises a head and a body, a through opening through the body having a rotational symmetry and being configured to allow the passage of at least two cables through the body, a shoulder being formed on the inner surface of the body to form a first cylindrical section on the upstream side and a second cylindrical section on the downstream side on the body, the audio plug further comprising a ring presenting a shoulder on its outer surface to form a first section with a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the first section of the body and a second section with a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the second section of the body, the ring presenting a through opening according to the longitudinal direction, at least one locking member being formed on the inner surface of the ring and being configured to lock the at least two cables relative to the ring, the ring being configured to be inserted into the body to cover the ends of the cables connected to the connection terminals before fixing the body to the head.

A terminal includes a bottom wall having a through hole, a pair of sidewalls disposed on a pair of sides of the bottom wall, and a first elastic arm extending from a first side of the through hole in a direction away from the bottom wall. The sidewalls and the first elastic arm contact a pin inserted into the through hole.

An appliance power connector includes a terminal block having a base. The base includes an upper surface and a lower surface. The base includes a pocket. The terminal block includes an upper shroud and a lower shroud. The upper shroud has upper shroud walls extending from the base forming an upper chamber above the upper surface. The lower shroud has lower shroud walls extending from the base forming a lower chamber below the lower surface. The appliance power connector includes a power terminal coupled to the terminal block. The power terminal includes a main body, an upper stud extending from a top of the main body and a lower stud extending from a bottom of the main body. The main body is received in the pocket. The upper stud is located in the upper chamber above the base for connection to an upper power cable terminal. The lower threaded stud is located in the lower chamber below the base for connection to a lower power cable terminal.

A connector includes a terminal fitting that includes a terminal connection section, and a housing that includes a terminal accommodating section in which the terminal fitting is inserted into a terminal accommodating chamber in the terminal accommodating section in a terminal insertion direction and accommodated at an accommodation completion position, wherein the terminal connection section is a tubular section bent in a tubular shape with end surfaces of two end portions facing each other, and includes a recess that is recessed from a distal end of the terminal connection section on a terminal insertion direction side, in a terminal removal direction opposite to the terminal insertion direction, the terminal insertion direction being a tube axis direction.

A shield connector includes: a housing that includes a first engaging portion and a first facing wall; an annular sealing member; a holder that includes a second engaging portion and a second facing wall, and supports the sealing member; a tubular shell that includes a first insertion opening that the housing is inserted into, a first end face that surrounds the first insertion opening, a second insertion opening that the holder is inserted into, and a second end face that surrounds the second insertion opening, and a braid. The housing and the holder cause the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion to be engaged with each other inside the shell, cause the first facing wall to face the first end face, and cause the second facing wall to face the second end face, and the housing and the holder are coupled to each other.

A female connector module to be connected to a male terminal module is provided with a tubular female shield member, a tubular housing arranged on an outer periphery of the female shield member, a front mask provided on a tip portion of the housing, and an electrically conductive rubber for conduction between a male shield member of the male terminal module and the female shield member. The front mask has an end wall for facing an end surface of the housing and a side wall for covering an outer peripheral surface of the tip portion. The end wall has a through hole into which the male terminal module being inserted. The electrically conductive rubber is so arranged inside the through hole as to contact an end surface of the female shield member while being held in contact with an outer peripheral surface of the male shield member.
