A base part (20) for an inhaler (27) comprises an electronic control device (21) and an electric connection for transmitting control signals to a component part (1) and/or for the electric supply of a component part (1) of the inhaler (27). The electric connection comprises a plug connector part (22), which is configured for reversible interaction with a corresponding plug connector part (7) of the component part (1).

A mobile device includes a connector, an audio generator, a biological signal processor, a switch element, and a controller. The switch element has a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal of the switch element is coupled to the connector, and the second terminal of the switch element is selectively coupled to either the audio generator or the biological signal processor according to a control signal. The controller is coupled to the audio generator and the biological signal processor, and is configured to generate the control signal.

An electrical connector for soldering with a cable is provided. The electrical connector includes an insulating body, a plurality of terminals, and a metallic shell. The terminals are disposed in the insulating body and arranged in a lateral direction. Each of the terminals has a clip section, a connecting section, and a soldering section. The metallic shell is assembled to the insulating body to form an interface of the electrical connector for connecting to another electrical connector, the clip section is close to the interface, the soldering section is away from the interface, and the cable is soldered to the soldering section of at least one of the terminals in the lateral direction.

Included are terminal metal parts mounted on ends of electric wires, a housing housing the terminal metal parts at a housing completion position thereinside and to be inserted and fit into a counterpart fitting portion headed by a tip, a terminal locking member mounted on the housing from outside along a direction crossing an insertion direction of the housing to the counterpart fitting portion and locking the terminal metal parts as they are at the housing completion position at a mounting completion position with respect to the housing, and a front holder causing the housing to be inserted headed by the tip and locking the terminal locking member at the mounting completion position.

A receptacle assembly includes one or more receptacle housing members, each having an inner portion which extends outwardly beyond the housing member defining an asymmetrical opening therebetween to secure a male connector. The inner portion includes openings to secure electrical prong members from the male connector. Electrical connectors extend from the inner portion to electrical power lines from a dockside power pedestal or post. A mounting assembly portion of the retrofit receptacle assembly secures the receptacle to the dockside power pedestal or post.

The disclosure describes a high-power electrical connector providing blind-mating and an environmental sealing connector with a bus bar interfaces that features positional alignment and low friction mating. The electrical connector includes a receptacle with a bus bar electrically isolated from nearby connectors. The connector further includes a plug configured to mate with the receptacle. The plug includes several electrical contacts configured to make an electrical connection to the bus bar of the receptacle, when mated.
