An electrical connector includes a housing with a terminal module inserted in the housing in an axial direction, an electrical terminal fixed in the terminal module, a cover latched with the housing, and a spring that biases the terminal module in the axial direction.

The present invention relates to a connector for battery packs including a terminal pin configured to serve as an electrical connection path, a housing to which the terminal pin is mounted, and a high heat resistant member added to the housing, wherein melting of the connector is prevented due to addition of the high heat resistant member, whereby it is possible to block spread of a thermal runaway phenomenon occurring in a battery pack to the outside.

A fixation device for fixing a contact element within a connector. The device includes a housing defining a contact element receptacle for receiving a contact element and a support face defining a deflection surface for supporting the contact element within the housing, and a clamping device for clamping the contact element in the contact element receptacle with a clamping force directed in a clamping direction. The deflection surface is oriented at an angle relative to the clamping direction such that it deflects a component or portion of the clamping force acting upon the contact element in a direction transverse to the clamping direction.

A connector includes a terminal fitting, an insulating housing having a terminal accommodation chamber in which the terminal fitting is accommodated, and attached to a casing of an installation target device, and an insulating heat dissipation member that takes heat from the terminal fitting and dissipates the heat are included, and the heat dissipation member includes a heat absorbing portion that comes into contact with the terminal fitting in the terminal accommodation chamber and takes heat from the terminal fitting, and a heat transfer portion that transfers the heat taken by the heat absorbing portion to a heat transfer target portion outside the terminal accommodation chamber.

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a vibration mitigation device. The vibration mitigation device can comprise a shell forming a hollow body that is configured to house a coupled wiring connector and a connector block. The shell can comprise first shell section and second shell section that are operably engaged with each other, and engaged with a vehicle component to which the connector block is engaged. The shape and sizing of the shell and its hollow body allow for a compressive force to be applied to the coupled connectors, to mitigate vibration between the two connectors during use.

A connection apparatus comprises a platform, a plug connector having a plug connector part secured to the platform and electrically connected to the circuit of the field device and a plug connector part connectable with the connection cable and complementary to the first plug connector part, as well as a lid held movably relative to the platform for at least partially covering the plug connector formed by connecting the plug connector parts. The lid is swingable between a first end position, in which the lid at least partially covers the plug connector, and a second end position, and is additionally adapted in at least one open position located between the first end position and the second end position to expose the plug connector such that the plug connector part can be separated from the plug connector part, as well as at least in the first end position to secure the plug connector part connected with the plug connector part.

Approaches provide for a point-of-sale system that includes, for example, a stand that supports a computing device. The computing device can run software configured to provide functionality for a point-of-sale system. The computing device can be connected to peripheral components, such as a cash drawer, a receipt printer, etc. through a hub or other device configured to host at least one of a plurality of peripheral ports and/or operate as a single client to the computing device.

A connector for plugging together with a counter-connector in a plug-in direction comprises a casing, a receptacle seal, and an oscillation absorber. The casing has a contact receptacle receiving a contact. The contact receptacle has a receptacle outer wall. The receptacle seal is disposed on the receptacle outer wall. The oscillation absorber is disposed at a distance from the receptacle seal in the plug-in direction and has a de-aeration opening extending through the oscillation absorber in the plug-in direction. A free volume extends between the receptacle seal and the oscillation absorber in the plug-in direction.
