A connector includes a housing which is capable of holding one or more electric wires and a cover which is attached to an end part of the housing while sliding in a sliding direction and guides the electric wire extending from the end part of the housing in a predetermined direction.

A connector assembly for protecting electrical connections in a hazardous environment is provided. The connector assembly includes a first connector, a plug casting, and an elongated mesh grip. The plug casting circumscribes and is secured onto the first connector. The elongated mesh grip is coupled to the plug casting, the mesh grip including a mesh sized to surround the electrical cable, the mesh including a first end and a second end. The mesh has a diameter that is a transverse diameter of a channel defined by the mesh and configured to receive an electrical cable therethrough, wherein the diameter of the mesh decreases when one of the first and second ends of the mesh is pulled away from the other of the first and second ends of the mesh.

An illustrative example embodiment of a connector shell includes a connector cover and a cable-guiding sleeve having a curved conduit. The cover and the cable-guiding sleeve are made up of two separate elements. The cable-guiding sleeve is mounted on the cover so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation. The cable-guiding sleeve and the cover comprise means for blocking the rotation of the cable-guiding sleeve on the cover in at least two different pre-set angular positions about the axis of rotation. These blocking means comprise shapes that engage with each other in a complementary way, and that are able to release each other and allow the passage from one angular position to the next.

A welding power cable includes at least one welding power source, a welding torch, and a workpiece. The welding power cable is provided with an outer casing for protecting and insulating an electrically conductive cable, wherein the electrically conductive cable is situated within the casing. The end face of the welding power cable is provided with an electrically conductive contacting means for establishing an electrically conductive contact with the welding power source in particular, and a connection means for establishing a detachable mechanical connection, in particular between the welding power source and the welding power cable. This provides an option for connecting and disconnecting such a welding power cable to/from a welding power source in a quick and reliable manner while keeping the torsional stress on the welding power cable in the area of the connection to the welding power source.

A connector (10) includes a connector housing (12) fittable to a mating connector (11), a wire cover (14) disposed at a position spaced apart rearward from the connector housing (12) in a fitting direction to the mating connector (11) and configured to cover wires (13) drawn out rearward in the fitting direction from the connector housing (12), and a service cover (15) assembled over the connector housing (12) and the wire cover (14).

Provided is a connector including: at least one plate-like housing body; a plurality of groove-like terminal housing chambers each opened in an upper surface of the housing body and parallelly arranged; a plurality of connection terminals provided at ends of a plurality of electrical wirings and housed and disposed in the terminal housing chambers, respectively; an electrical wiring support part supporting the plurality of electrical wirings extending from a back end side opening part of the terminal housing chambers; a sheet-like reinforced member which is placed on an upper surface of the electrical wiring support part and the plurality of electrical wirings are fixed to in a state of parallelly arranged; and a cover part overlapping with the upper surface of the housing body to cover the terminal housing chambers and sandwiching the sheet-like reinforced member between the cover part and the electrical wiring support part.

Provided is a connector including: at least one plate-like housing body; a plurality of groove-like terminal housing chambers each opened in an upper surface of the housing body and parallelly arranged; a plurality of connection terminals provided at ends of a plurality of electrical wirings and housed and disposed in the terminal housing chambers, respectively; an electrical wiring support part supporting the plurality of electrical wirings extending from a back end side opening part of the terminal housing chambers; a sheet-like reinforced member which is placed on an upper surface of the electrical wiring support part and the plurality of electrical wirings are fixed to in a state of parallelly arranged; and a cover part overlapping with the upper surface of the housing body to cover the terminal housing chambers and sandwiching the sheet-like reinforced member between the cover part and the electrical wiring support part.

An electrical plug connector terminates a twisted pair electrical cable. The electrical plug connector includes a base and a plug housing holding electrical contacts therebetween. The base includes a divider structure including separation walls. At least one of the separation walls defines an abutment surface against which a forward end of the electrical cable abuts when terminated by the electrical plug connector. The plug housing defines slots so that the electrical contacts are accessible. The electrical plug connector axially secures an outer jacket of the electrical cable against rearward movement relative to base. The at least one separation wall inhibits forward axial movement of the outer jacket of the electrical cable relative to the base.

A connector body includes mating guide parts having mating recesses into which counterpart mating guide parts are inserted, the reinforcing bracket includes a body part attached to end wall parts of the mating guide parts, and a pair of left and right connection arms connected to both ends of the body part, the connection arms extending to the longitudinal center of the connector body and being attached to side wall parts of the mating guide parts, the connection arm includes a side plate part and a side wall upper cover part connected to an upper end of the side plate part, at least a part of the outside of the side plate part is covered with an outside part of the side wall part, and the side wall upper cover part is curved such that a tip faces the mating recess and covers at least a part of the upper surface of the inside part of the side wall part.

A connector adapter including a pivot connector frame, a clamping shroud configured to fit through the pivot connector frame, a connector case disposed within the clamping shroud, a sliding sheath to which the connector case is connected, and a bulkhead adapter cavity formed within the connector case, wherein the connector case is configured for rotatable movement and slidable movement within the pivot connector frame.
