A pinch sleeve for pinching an electric cable in an electric connector includes a plurality of pinch fingers that extend in an axial direction from a base to a free end and a ring member connecting the bases of the pinch fingers in a circumferential direction extending around the axial direction. The pinch fingers are arranged in the circumferential direction and surround an interior volume that receives the electric cable. The interior volume penetrates the pinch sleeve in the axial direction. The ring member has a plurality of coupling teeth that protrude from the ring member for rotational engagement.

An electrical fitting to secure multiple non-metallic electrical cables has a body having a first end for insertion into an electrical panel box or to receive conduit, and a second end having an opening with apertures formed near a periphery thereof, the body having a hollow interior for passage of cables, and a cable securing device having a plate dimensioned to mount to the body and clamping devices, each having a pair of resilient clamp fingers to secure at least one cable, each finger having a terminating end adjacent the terminating end of the other finger, a pair of squeezable arms extending to facilitate cable insertion and removal, and a pair of anchoring fingers extending from the first surface of the plate, each anchoring finger having a protruding member to snap into one of the apertures so as to secure the cable securing device especially when the arms are squeezed.

A wire cover member disclosed by this specification is a wire cover member (10) to be mounted on a connector (50) from which wires (W) are pulled out rearwardly, and includes a pair of half covers (20) having a wire inserting portion (22) through which the wires (W) pulled out rearwardly from the connector (50) are inserted, a fixing portion (40) made of synthetic resin and to be accommodated into the wire inserting portion (22) with a tiny clearance defined between the fixing portion and the wire inserting portion while being fixed to the wires (W), and a corrugated tube (30) formed to be resiliently contractible in a front-rear direction and held in the wire inserting portion (22) in a state where the fixing portion (40) can come into contact with the corrugated tube (30) from front.

A post-less, self-gripping coaxial cable connector for tool-less attachment to an end of a coaxial cable is disclosed. The coaxial cable connector has a body having a forward end and a rearward end and a longitudinal opening. A retainer positioned in the body has a forward section, a rearward section, and a bore. A ring is movably disposed in the retainer. A gripping member having at least one spring finger is friction fit to the body and is radially inwardly biased in a predisposed orientation. The ring has a pusher feature configured to axially move the ring upon force being applied to the pusher feature by a coaxial cable received by the body causing the gripping member to engage the jacket of the coaxial cable when the coaxial cable is installed in the coaxial cable connector.

In one or more embodiments, one or more systems may comprise a system for leveraging a strain relief connector in a board connector or providing electrical power to a printed circuit board (PCB) retained in the board connector. A surface of the PCB is formed with a contact pad and a via is connected to the contact pad. The PCB is positioned in a first slot in the board connector and an electrically conductive bracket is positioned in a second slot in a strain relief connector. A bolt is advanced in a threaded passage to secure the PCB and the electrically conductive bracket in the board connector, wherein the electrically conductive bracket, the bolt and the contact pad form an electrical path from the electrical connector to the via in the PCB.

A cable strain relief structure includes a conducting seat, a cable, a supporting element, and an insulating sleeve. The conducting seat includes an insulating body and a conducting element disposed in the insulating body. The cable passes through the insulating body and is electrically connected to the conducting element. The supporting element includes a plurality of ridges arranged spacedly and annularly on the outer periphery of the cable. The ridges are extended in the direction along the cable and away from the insulating body. The insulating sleeve covers the supporting element and is extended in the direction along the cable.
