COUPLING SYSTEM FOR ESTABLISHING AN ELECTRIC CONNECTION
20230120198 · 2023-04-20 ·

A coupling system establishes an electric connection between two electric components. The first component is positioned in a housing and includes at least one busbar, and the second component is disposed outside the housing and includes at least one current connection. An electrically conductive connection can be established between the busbar and the current connection by the coupling system. The coupling system includes a plug insert which can be plugged into the housing. The plug insert includes an insulator part, in which a sleeve and a washer nut are fixed. The insulator part has a recess which is formed in such a way that the busbar can be moved between the sleeve and the disc nut through the recess. A plug insert for a coupling system is also provided.

CABLE CONNECTORS AND CABLE CONNECTOR SYSTEMS AND METHODS INCLUDING SAME

A cable connector (100-900) for connecting an electrical cable, the electrical cable including a cable conductor having a terminal end portion, the terminal end portion having an end face, includes an electrically conductive connector body (110), a conductor bore (102) in the connector body (110), a securing mechanism, and a contact mechanism (141). The connector bore (102) defines a conductor bore axis and is configured to receive the terminal end portion of the cable conductor along the conductor bore axis. The securing mechanism is operable to clamp onto the terminal end portion. The contact mechanism (141) includes a pressure member (170A, 170B), an electrical contact surface, and a drive mechanism (151). The drive mechanism (151) is selectively operable to drive the pressure member (170A, 170B) to force the electrical contact surface against the end face of the cable conductor.

CONNECTOR-EQUIPPED WIRE AND CONNECTOR HOUSING

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a feature making it easy to accommodate a terminal-equipped wire in a connector housing. This connector-equipped wire is provided with: a terminal-equipped wire comprising a jacketed wire and a terminal component that is provided to an end part of the jacketed wire; and a connector housing comprising a body component where a cavity has been formed and a cover component mounted onto the body component. A distal end part of the terminal component is accommodated in the cavity. A rear end part of the terminal component protrudes out to outside the cavity, and is covered by the cover component or by the cover component and the body component. In the state where the rear end part of the terminal component protrudes out to outside the cavity, the cover component can be mounted onto the body component in accordance with a sliding movement in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the cavity.

WIRING CHAMBER WITH MULTIPLE TERMINATIONS
20230072332 · 2023-03-09 ·

There is provided a terminal for an electrical power cable that includes a conductive clip, a terminal block, and a set screw. The clip resides in the terminal block and includes a plurality of openings sized to receive low voltage connectors, such as spade connectors. The openings in the clip are arranged to organize the spade connectors and their respective pigtail connections. The location and orientation of the clip and the spade connectors is such that, when the set screw is installed in the terminal block, force is applied by the set screw onto the clip. The clip compresses and secures the spade connectors to the terminal block.
