A plug connector pluggable with a mating connector in a connecting direction has a locking spring. The locking spring exerts a force on a pressure chamfer of the mating connector acting in the connecting direction when the plug connector is fully plugged together with the mating connector.

A connector 10 disclosed by this specification includes a housing 12 including a busbar 30 and a mounting member to be mounted into the housing 12. The housing 12 includes a first lock portion 38. The mounting member includes a second lock portion 60 to be engaged with the first lock portion 38. The first lock portion 38 is provided on the side of an exposed surface 36 of the busbar 30.

An electrical connector assembly includes a receptacle housing having a retaining device with a coupling hook portion and a plug housing configured to be mated and locked with the receptacle housing. The plug housing has a lever movable from a first position in which the plug housing and the receptacle housing are unlocked to a second position in which the plug housing is locked with the receptacle housing. The lever is rotatably mounted about a shaft arranged in and passing through the plug housing. The coupling hook portion is configured to engage with the shaft and, in the second position, the shaft is in abutment with the coupling hook portion to positively lock the plug housing and the receptacle housing together.

Herein described are apparatuses and systems for facilitating alignment of computer component connectors. A package protector may include a body to at least partially surround an integrated circuit package of a circuit card when the package protector is mounted to the circuit card. The package protector may further include a guide pin component that extends from a side of the body, wherein the guide pin component is to be located adjacent to a header of the circuit card when the package protector is mounted to the circuit card, wherein a connector uses the guide pin component to align with the header via a guide pin.

A compact design for a push-pull latching system for a rectangular plug includes at least one locking and releasing element (11) which is held against a broad side of a plug housing in such a way that the locking and releasing element can be moved parallel to the broad side of the plug housing (1). The locking and releasing element (11) can be formed integrally with the plug housing (1) from an elastic plastic and can have a plurality of locking arms (111) having locking hooks (113). The movement necessary for releasing is then inversely proportional to the number of locking arms (111); the elasticity is also determined by the shape of the locking arms, in particular the width of the locking arms.

An electrical plug connector has an insulated housing, two elastic buckle elements, multiple plug terminals, and a plug metallic shell. The insulated housing has a terminal portion and two connecting portions. The two elastic buckle elements are respectively mounted in receiving grooves of the two connecting portions of the insulated housing. Multiple plug terminals are arranged on the terminal portion of the insulated housing. An electrical receptacle connector is detachably connected with the electrical plug connector. The electrical receptacle connector has a receptacle insulated housing and multiple receptacle terminals. The receptacle insulated housing has an inserting portion and two receptacle connecting portions. The multiple receptacle terminals are mounted in a mounting slot of the receptacle insulated housing. When the electrical plug connector is connected with the electrical receptacle connector, the multiple plug terminals may contact the multiple receptacle terminals and are conducted.

Provided is an electric connector capable of preventing damage to a housing and deformation of a bracket even if it is miniaturized. An electric connector (10) according to the present disclosure includes: a first connector (20) having a first housing (30) with a recess (35) formed in a first surface and a first bracket (54) held by the first housing (30) while facing the first surface; and a second connector (60) fitted with the first connector (20), the second connector having a second housing (70) with a projection (76) fitted into the recess (35), the projection being formed on a second surface corresponding to the first surface, and a second bracket (94) held by the second housing (70) while facing the second surface and electrically connected to the first bracket (54). After the first housing (30) and the second housing (70) are fitted together, the projection (76) is disposed such that a side face along a direction perpendicular to the first surface faces the first bracket (54) or the second bracket (94), and the first housing (30) has a protrusion formed continuous with the first surface and located closer to the fitting side than the first bracket (54).

An electrical conductor assembly for use in a power distribution assembly includes an electrical conductor. A casing covers at least a portion of the electrical conductor. The casing insulates the at least a portion of the electrical conductor.
