Implantable connector
A connection system implantable within a living body having an exterior skin includes a male connector and a female connector. The male connector includes a shaft extending along an axis between a proximal end and a distal end, the shaft having an exterior surface surrounding the axis, at least one shaft contact carried on the shaft and exposed at the exterior surface, and a retaining element mounted to the shaft. The female connector includes a structure defining a bore extending along an axis between a proximal end and a distal end, at least one bore contact mounted to the structure and exposed within the bore and a catch element mounted to the structure. The catch and retaining elements allow the shaft to be inserted into the bore to align the contacts. A locking element rotatably locks the shaft in the bore. A method of implanting the system is also provided.
CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
A first connector and a second connector of this connector assembly can mutually connect along the vertical direction. The first connector comprises a first housing provided with a sliding surface, a locking surface, and a receiving surface. The locking surface intersects, at an angle of 90° or less, with a line segment extending straight upward from the locking surface. The second connector comprises a second housing provided with a spring section and a locked section. The locked section can move forward and backward as the spring section elastically deforms. The locked section has a locked surface. When the second connector is in a separated state of being separated from the first connector, the locked surface intersects, at an angle of 90° or less, with a line segment extending straight upward from the locked surface. In a fitting step, the locked section moves downward while being pressed against the sliding surface. The locked section abuts the receiving surface upon moving downward on the sliding surface.
CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTOR
A first housing of a first connector has a first end wall which is located downward of a first accommodation portion in an up-down direction. When viewed from beneath along the up-down direction, the first end wall hides, in part, a first contact located in the first accommodation portion. A second housing has a second end wall which is located upward of a second accommodation portion in the up-down direction. When viewed from above along the up-down direction, the second end wall hides a second contact located in the second accommodation portion. The first end wall prevents a finger of an operator from coming into contact with the first contact, and the second end wall prevents the finger of the operator from coming into contact with the second contact.
Electrical connector with field serviceable shell assembly
A connector comprises an external mounting flange that provides a housing in which a gimbal shell assembly sits and pivots. An internal recessing shell is capable of having an electrical connection with the gimbal shell assembly, wherein when the gimbal shell assembly is disengaged, no electrical connection exists between internal recessing shell and gimbal shell assembly. A center screw is capable of being torqued to disengage and reengage the gimbal shell assembly.
BAYONET-TYPE BUNDLED RF CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
The present disclosure relates to a bayonet-type bundled RF connector assembly comprising: a male connector including a male connector body and a sleeve sleeved on the male connector body, wherein a first elastic member is provided in a gap between the male connector body and the sleeve, and the male connector body is provided with a plurality of first through holes; a plurality of unit male connectors for connecting a plurality of male connector cables, each unit male connector mounted in a respective first through hole; a plurality of second elastic members, each surrounding a respective one of the plurality of unit male connectors; and a female connector mated with the male connector, wherein the female connector includes a female connector body provided with a plurality of second through holes; and a plurality of unit female connectors for connecting a plurality of female connector cables, each of the unit female connectors mounted in a respective second through hole; wherein the sleeve of the male connector is connected to the female connector body of the female connector by a bayonet connection of a pin and a slot, and the first elastic member secures engagement between the pin and the slot, and each of the plurality of unit male connectors is urged into contact with a respective one of the plurality of unit female connectors by a second elastic member.
CONNECTOR DEVICE
A connector device comprises a connector and a mating connector. The connector comprises a housing and a slider having a second regulated portion. The mating connector comprises a mating housing having a second regulation portion. The connector is movable between an open position and a closed position. The slider is held by the housing to be movable between a first position and a second position. When the connector is moved to a predetermined position together with the slider which is located at the second position upon a movement of the connector from the closed position toward the open position, the second regulated portion is brought into abutment with the second regulation portion, and a movement of the connector toward the open position beyond the predetermined position is regulated. When the slider is moved to the first position, the connector is movable to the open position.
METAL-OXIDE VARISTORS (MOVS) IN GRID CORD CONNECTOR
An electrical assembly comprising an electrical connector assembly that may include: a utility device comprising a plurality of pins; a socket attached to a cord, the socket comprising a plurality of receptacles to receive the plurality of pins; and one or more metal-oxide varistors (MOVs) disposed inside the socket, where the one or more MOVs are electrically connected to the plurality of pins when the plurality of pins are received by the plurality of receptacles.
Connector assembly and connector
A first housing of a first connector has a first end wall which is located downward of a first accommodation portion in an up-down direction. When viewed from beneath along the up-down direction, the first end wall hides, in part, a first contact located in the first accommodation portion. A second housing has a second end wall which is located upward of a second accommodation portion in the up-down direction. When viewed from above along the up-down direction, the second end wall hides a second contact located in the second accommodation portion. The first end wall prevents a finger of an operator from coming into contact with the first contact, and the second end wall prevents the finger of the operator from coming into contact with the second contact.
Locking electrical contact device with switch
An electrical connector assembly includes a first electrical contact device and a second electrical contact device. The first electrical contact device includes a plurality of conductors. The second electrical contact device includes a first portion, a second portion movable in a rotational and translational manner relative to the first portion, and an actuator movable between a first position and a second position. The first portion includes first electrical contacts, and the second portion includes electrical sockets. Each socket receives an associated conductor and includes a second electrical contact aligned with an associated first electrical contact. The second portion is biased away from the first portion. When the actuator is in the first position, the actuator inhibits translational movement of the second portion toward the first portion. When the actuator is in the second position, the second portion is movable toward the first portion to permit the second electrical contacts to engage the first electrical contacts.
Bi-Directional Header For Multi-Direction Connector Mating
An electrical header for use in an electrical connector assembly includes a body for mounting to an object and having an opening formed therethrough for receiving an electrical terminal. The body further defines a plug on a first side thereof for engaging with a mating electrical connector of the assembly. The plug includes a pair of first opposing sidewalls extending from the body a first height and defining a locking feature for engaging with a corresponding locking feature of the mating connector, and a pair of second opposing sidewalls extending from the body at a second height, less than the first height. The first and second pairs of opposing sidewalls are adapted to mate with a first mating connector oriented in a first direction with respect to the header, and mate with a second mating connector oriented in a second direction with respect to the header and distinct from the first direction.
