20260094989 · 2026-04-02 ·

A connector assembly comprising a pin connector assembly, a socket connector assembly, and an insulating member. The pin connector assembly comprises a generally cylindrical shape with an outer surface, an inner spring, and mechanically coupled to an electrical cable. The socket connector assembly comprises a generally cylindrical in shape with an inner surface, an outer spring, and mechanically coupled to an electrical cable. The contact surface stress between the pin connector and socket connector can be increased by the inner spring, the outer spring, or both. The contact resistance of the connectors is reduced by the increase in contact surface stress via the spring force. The insulating member can be threadingly coupled to the mated connectors.
