A conductive component structure of rail-type terminal device includes a conductive component disposed in an insulation case body. The conductive component has a first section and a second section connected with the base section. The first section and the second section are respectively formed with a bow portion, a first portion and a second portion. A load arm and an elastic unit assembled with the load arm are disposed on the first section and/or the second section. The elastic unit includes a first elastic section and a second elastic section. The load arm passes through the first elastic section and at least a part of the second elastic section. When the load arm is displaced or moved, the first elastic section and the second elastic section respectively provide tension (or pushback force) and pulling force effect so as to improve the shortcoming of the conventional terminal device.

Provided is a thermocouple transition body apparatus comprising: a transition body, having at least one recess; a positive electrical terminal; a negative electrical terminal; and, at least one cap; wherein the transition body, positive terminal, and negative terminal are configured to attach to conductors without the use of epoxy or crimping. The thermocouple transition body apparatus is able to withstand temperatures exceeding 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

A connector assembly includes a female connector having a pair of female terminals inserted into a housing of which one side is open, and including a male connector having a male terminal inserted between the pair of female terminals to come into contact with the pair of female terminals. one end of a female terminal of the pair of female terminals is fixed to an inner surface of the housing. The other end thereof is disposed to extend by a predetermined length. A displacement of the other end occurs toward the one end due to the configuration of the male connector. A contact defect problem during coupling does not occur and reworking of the connector assembly is facilitated.

A component carrier is illustrated and described. The component carrier has i) a stack with at least one electrically conductive layer structure and/or at least one electrically insulating layer structure, and ii) at least one elastic element attached to the stack and configured to reversibly connect the component carrier with a further component carrier by elastically deforming the at least one elastic element and essentially not deforming the stack and the further component carrier.

A grounding clamp includes a safety lock-out which locks the operation of the clamp in the absence of a cooperating hot-stick. The lock-out employs a clutch which prevents the translation of the clamping members relative to one another until the clutch is disengaged. The cooperating hot-stick is required for the disengagement of the clutch.

A small form factor wiring connector provides a two wire to two point connector with separate-hole insertion for two wires, by having two holes on the first casing side of the connector and a terminal connection on the opposite second side of the connector. The design works well for a pluggable or fixed-mounted connector. The separate wire insertion holes and the internal screw-driven clamping means with U-shaped wire clamp and U-shaped fixed terminal surfaces provides positive connections which will not easily loosen.

A module for use in a hardware platform for networking, computing, and/or storage includes a printed circuit board assembly having a primary side and a secondary side, wherein the primary side includes more physical space, in a vertical direction extending out from the printed circuit board assembly, than the secondary side; electrical and/or optical components disposed on the primary side of the printed circuit board assembly; and a secondary side heatsink located on and extending from the secondary side, wherein the secondary side heatsink is disposed to one of i) an electrical and/or optical component disposed on the secondary side, and ii) an optical component disposed on the primary side, for thermal management.
