A cartridge includes an outer case, partially filled with electrically insulating gel, and at least one electrically conductive track submerged in the insulating gel. Connection sets including at least one connector half and such a cartridge are also disclosed.

A cable connector that includes a housing that receives a contact member and has opposite first and second ends, an inner sleeve having an insert section extending into the second end of the housing and a cable termination section for receiving a cable and that includes a locking portion, a backshell having a first end that couples to the second end of the housing and an opposite second end that surrounds the sleeve's cable termination section, and a locking member positioned between the sleeve's cable termination section and the second end of the backshell. The locking member has a locking element for cooperating with the sleeve's locking portion. The backshell is rotatable with respect to the housing in a tightening direction, and the locking element engages the locking portion of the inner sleeve such that rotation of the backshell in a loosening direction opposite the tightening direction is prevented.

A connector device includes: a first connector having a first terminal provided in a connector fitting chamber; and a second connector having a second terminal that is accommodated in a connector fitting portion to be fitted to the connector fitting chamber and has a terminal receiving portion to which the first terminal is inserted when fitting the connector fitting portion to the connector fitting chamber. The terminal receiving portion is accommodated in the connector fitting portion with a gap. The connector fitting portion is provided with slits on an upper surface and a lower surface positioned with the terminal receiving portion interposed therebetween.

A terminal fitting (10) includes an electrical contact (20) with a facing surface (21) facing a contact surface (81) of a mating terminal (80). A canted coil spring (50) that is made of a conductive wire material (51) has a wound surface inclined with respect to the coil axis (L) of the canted coil spring (60). The coil axis (L) is parallel with the facing surface (21) of the electrical contact member (20). The canted coil spring (50) is sandwiched between the mating terminal (80) and the electrical contact member (20) when the mating terminal (80) and the electrical contact member (20) approach each other. A holder shaft (40) is inserted in the canted coil spring (50) to hold the canted coil spring (50) in a posture where the coil axis L is parallel with the facing surface (21) of the electrical contact member (20).

A charging socket mounting assembly includes a mounting box and a charging socket. The mounting box is made of a fireproof material and includes a box body and two mounting portions. The box body has a receiving space. The two mounting portions are connected to and extend outward from the box body. The charging socket includes a mounting plate and a socket body mounted in the mounting plate. The mounting plate includes a plurality of heat dissipation holes. The charging socket is mounted to the box body through the mounting plate, with the socket body received in the receiving space and the heat dissipation holes lying within the receiving space. Thus, the charging socket mounting assembly enhances safety of use.
