Connection device
A connection device electrically connects a textile to an electrical contact of a connector. The connection device is received in an insertion direction in the connector. The connection device includes a body and an attachment device. The body has a first end and a second end opposite the first end in the insertion direction. The body has a first surface extending between the first end and the second end and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The body has a portion at the first end extending essentially transversely from the first surface, the portion having an aperture into which the textile is inserted. The attachment device for the textile is connected to the second surface at the first end.

Tool for installing electrical connectors with an extendible reach tool
The present disclosure provides embodiments of a tool adapted to electrically and mechanically connect an electrical connector to electrical conductors using an extendable reach tool. The tool permits one or more lineman to remotely connect an electrical connector to electrical conductors. The tool includes a glide track assembly, a connector holding member, a gear assembly and a fastener head driver.
Devices and methods for connecting to a metallic shield of a cable
The present disclosure describes various devices and methods for the reconstruction or restoration of a metallic shield of a cable, which provide a holding feature for simplifying the installation of an electrically-conductive member on the metallic shield and improving the reliability of the connection. Both factory-supplied and field-installable holding features are described.
COAXIAL CONNECTOR HAVING A BREAKAWAY COMPRESSION RING AND TORQUE MEMBER
A connector includes a body having a cable receiving end configured to receive the end of the coaxial cable, a coupler configured to be coupled with and to rotate relative to the body, and a compression ring including a forward sleeve portion and a rearward outer ring portion attached to one another by a plurality of tabs. The forward sleeve portion is configured to be coupled to the cable receiving end of the body, and the plurality of tabs are configured to shear so as to separate the rearward outer ring portion from the forward sleeve portion when a desired force is met as the compression ring is moved relative to the body. The rearward outer ring includes an inner opening when separated from the forward sleeve portion, the separated rearward outer ring is configured to be slidingly moved relative to the body and the coupler, and the inner opening is configured to fit over the coupler such that the rearward outer ring is configured to be a torque assist member.

Quick change battery clamp
A quick change battery clamp includes a first clamp body, a second clamp body, and a handle assembly. The second clamp body is coupled to the first clamp body. The handle assembly is selectively disposed through each of the first clamp body and the second clamp body. Each of the first clamp body and the second clamp body define an aperture having a substantially polygonal cross-section configured to receive a battery post. Each of the first clamp body and the second clamp body have an internal wall with a plurality of ridges configured to selectively abut the battery post. The first clamp body and the second clamp body are hingedly connected.
