An optoelectronic module may include a housing enclosing at least one optical transmitter or receiver, a slider configured to move with respect to the housing, and a retainer configured to engage both the slider and the housing to retain the slider with respect to the housing. The slider may include a resilient tab and at least one protrusion configured to engage a cage sized and shaped to receive the housing. The retainer may include a first end portion configured to abut the resilient tab of the slider.

The present disclosure provides a protecting cover and a board edge connector. The protecting cover is used to a board edge connector. An insulating housing of the board edge connector comprises a board edge slot and a tower portion at least positioned at an end of the board edge slot. Two positions of the tower portion provide a guiding groove and a pair of clamping arms, the guiding groove and the pair of clamping arms are spaced apart from each other, therefore, in the mating process and the unmating process, it maintains stable path and position and provides a holding force. A side edge portion of the protecting cover comprises a stopping block. The stopping block can correspondingly stop onto an inner wall of the tower portion, prevent warpage or deflection deformation of the insulating housing.

A connector includes a sensing member inserted into the second housing along the first direction, and a sensing mechanism allowing the sensing member to advance to a predetermined engaged position along the first direction when the first housing and the second housing are completely fitted, and locking the sensing member at a position before the engaged position when the first housing and the second housing are not completely fitted. The sensing member includes an exposed portion exposed to an outer space when the sensing member is in the engaged position. In the exposed portion, a first surface exposed to a side opposite to a side of a central axis of the second housing is an inclined surface or an arc-shaped surface extending in a direction inclined with respect to the first direction and facing a side opposite to a side of the first housing in the first direction.

A connector with at least one guiding portion is provided along with a shell and an insulating body of the connector. The connector includes a plurality of metal terminals in addition to the insulating body and the shell. The metal terminals are fixedly provided in the insulating body. The insulating body is mounted in the shell, and the connector is characterized in that at least one plate-shaped guiding portion extends upward from a portion of the top edge of either the shell or the insulating body. While another connector is being connected to or disconnected from the connector, the guiding portion guides the another connector to facilitate electrical connection with or detachment from the connector.

A connector includes: half body parts each including a connector body, and a plurality of terminals attached to the body; end parts formed on both ends of the body formed by allowing the bodies to abut each other; and reinforcing brackets attached to the respective end parts. Each of the bodies is a member integrated with the terminals by primary insert molding, and includes a protrusion extending in the longitudinal direction and holding the terminals, and an embedded part connected to both ends in the longitudinal direction of the protrusion. The end part includes a covering part covering at least the embedded part of each of the bodies, and the covering part is a member integrated with the embedded part and the bracket by secondary insert molding. The connector allows for the spacing between protrusions to be narrowed, simplifying manufacturing, reducing size, and improving reliability.

An electronic module for a modular patient care system is disclosed. The electronic module can include a housing having an attachment side configured to releasably attach to an adjacent electronic module. A latch mechanism can be configured to engage a catch member on the adjacent electronic module to secure the attachment side to the adjacent electronic module. An electrical connector positioned on the attachment side can be configured to electrically connect to an adjacent electrical connector on the adjacent electronic module. A sensor coupled to the housing can be configured to detect movement of the latch mechanism indicative of at least one of engagement or disengagement of the latch mechanism from the adjacent electronic module.

A connector locking mechanism includes a housing that includes an arm having a locking member for locking on one side and a working end on the other side and a CPA member, movably built in between a non-mating position and a complete mating position, having an arm pressing projection and an inclined surface. When mating, a mating connector is inserted into a mating opening, one side of the arm swivels on the leg portion as a fulcrum by the arm pressing projection to approach the mating connector, and the locking member is locked with the locking projection. When releasing mating, the CPA member is moved to the non-mating position, the inclined surface contacts the working end of the arm, the arm swivels moving away from the housing of the mating connector, and the locking member is released from the locking projection of the mating connector.

A charging connector comprises a connector main, a lever and a regulating portion. The lever has a latch portion. The latch portion is provided with a locking lug. The locking lug has a locking surface. The lever comprises a main portion and a reinforcing portion. The main portion is made of resin. The reinforcing portion is made of metal plate. The reinforcing portion is held by the main portion. The reinforcing portion has a locking portion and a regulated portion. The locking portion is exposed on the locking surface. When the lever is positioned at a locked position, the regulated portion is positioned rearward beyond the regulating portion in a front-rear direction and faces the regulating portion in the front-rear direction. When the lever is positioned at the locked position, the regulating portion regulates forward movement of the regulated portion in the front-rear direction.

An intermediate electrical connector 1 which, upon connection of a first counterpart connect body 2 and a second counterpart connect body each from different sides in a manner permitting plugging and unplugging, mediates between the two counterpart connect bodies, the intermediate electrical connector 1 comprising terminals that are enabled to contact, respectively, the first counterpart connect body 2 and the second counterpart connect body, and a housing that directly or indirectly secures the terminals in place, wherein the connector has locking fittings 100 supported by the housing of the intermediate electrical connector 1, and the locking fittings 100 have locking portions 104A enabled to engage lockable portions 151 provided in the first counterpart connect body 2 in the direction of disengagement when the intermediate electrical connector 1 and said first counterpart connect body 2 are connected.
