It is aimed to guarantee the connection of a connector by completing the assembling of a cover. A connector (10) of the present disclosure includes a first connector (20), a second connector (30) and a cover (40). The first connector (20) and the second connector (30) are connectable to each other and completely covered by the cover (40) in a completely connected state. The cover (40) includes a first cover (41) for accommodating the first connector (20) inside and a second cover (42) for accommodating the second connector (30) inside. The second cover (41) includes a pair of openable and closable second half covers (42U, 42L). The half cover (42U, 42L) includes a connection guaranteeing portion for coming into contact with the second connector (30) in the completely connected state from behind.

A connector includes: a housing which is connected to a counterpart connector; and a slider held in the housing to be movable in a fitting direction. The housing and the slider include: a guide mechanism configured to guide a movement of the slider to the housing in the fitting direction; and a stopper mechanism configured to prevent the slider from being detached from the housing to the front side of the connector in the fitting direction. The guide mechanism has: a pair of ribs provided in one of the housing and the slider, the ribs extending in the fitting direction; and a pair of grooves provided in the other of the housing and the slider, the grooves extending in the fitting direction. The stopper mechanism is provided at a location adjacent to an end part of the guide mechanism at the front side of the connector in the fitting direction.

A connector housing for an electrical connector includes a first housing having a plurality of electrical terminals and a second housing pluggable with the first housing in a translational manner. The second housing has a single secondary locking projection indirectly or directly locking at least two of the electrical terminals of the first housing in a secondary locking manner.

An electrical connector includes an insulating seat and at least one conductive terminal provided therein. The insulating seat includes a rear wall and two side walls, surroundingly forming a mating space. Each side wall includes an extending arm and an elastic arm. The elastic arm has a first arm extending forward from the extending arm and a second arm bending reversely from the first arm and extending backward. The second arm is connected to the rear wall. An opening slot is formed between the first arm and the extending arm and runs forward therethrough. A through slot is formed between the second arm and the first arm. A buckling portion is formed at a side of the second arm away from the first arm to correspond to the through slot and the opening slot in a left-right direction. The conductive terminal has a contact portion exposed to the mating space.

A connector system includes a connector body defining a terminal cavity and a first and second groove each extending along an outer surface of the connector body and a terminal retainer attached to the connector body and moveable from a pre-staged position to a staged position. The terminal retainer retains a terminal within the cavity in the staged position. The terminal retainer has a base, a pair of first cantilevered arms extending from the base, a crossbar extending between the first arms defining a first latch feature, and a second cantilevered arm extending from the crossbar. The second arm is between the pair of first arms and defines a second latch feature. The first latch feature engages the first groove in the pre-staged position and the second groove in the staged position. The second latch feature engages the first groove in the staged position.

A board mating connector includes a signal contact unit, a first ground portion including a hollow portion formed thereinside to accommodate at least a portion of the signal contact unit, a second ground portion including a hollow portion formed thereinside to accommodate at least a portion of the signal contact unit and at least a portion of the first ground portion, and an elastic member disposed between the first ground portion and the second ground portion to provide an elastic restoring force in a first direction. The first ground portion includes a first protrusion protruding outward or inward from a lower end portion thereof, and the second ground portion includes a second protrusion protruding from an upper end portion thereof in a direction different from that of the first protrusion. The first protrusion is engaged with the second protrusion in the hollow portion of the second ground portion.

Systems and methods of using a multiport assembly and associated components are disclosed. The multiport assembly can include a multiport device that communicatively couples multiple sets or pairs of connectors, such as optical connectors or electrical connectors, together. The multiport assembly can also include an auxiliary port device that couples to the multiport device to expand the capacity of the multiport assembly. Both the multiport and auxiliary port devices can be selectively configured to receive specific types of connectors by selectively coupling to different types of adapters, where the types of adapters correspond to the types of connectors. When coupled to the multiport or auxiliary port devices, the adapters facilitate the formation of the communication between its corresponding set of connectors.

Provided is a photovoltaic connector, including a cathode photovoltaic connector and an anode photovoltaic connector; the cathode photovoltaic connector includes a cathode terminal block, a cathode conductive pin, a cathode cable and a cathode soft rubber base; the anode photovoltaic connector includes an anode terminal block, an anode conductive casing, an anode cable and an anode soft rubber base. The use of embodiments of the present invention can effectively avoid performance problems, such as cracking of the nylon nut, thereby effectively lengthening the overall service life of the equipment and the photovoltaic element containing this photovoltaic connector and greatly reducing energy consumption.

The invention relates to an electrical connector (1), having at least one first cut-out introduced in the electrical connector housing (2), a bolt (11) movably arranged in said first cut-out, and a locking clip (3), which is pivotably attached to the electrical connector housing (2) and which has at least one second cut-out, wherein the at least one first cut-out and the at least one second cut-out are aligned with each other in a state of locking to a mating electrical connector and the bolt (11) arranged in the at least one first cut-out protrudes into the at least one second cut-out of the locking clip (3), whereby the locking clip (3) is fastened in the pivoting motion thereof.
