A connector is provided with a first housing and a second housing connectable to each other, a detector arranged movably to a standby position and a detection position with respect to the first housing, a pair of second terminal fittings arranged in the second housing, and a shorting terminal arranged in the second housing to short-circuit the pair of second terminal fittings. The detector includes a releasing portion for releasing a short-circuit state of the pair of second terminal fittings by the shorting terminal as the detector reaches the detection position from the standby position.

A connector structure includes a bottomed tubular hood formed in a housing, a mating hood formed in a mating housing and fitted inside the bottomed tubular hood, a plate spring member made of metal accommodated in a tube bottom of the bottomed tubular hood, a backlash regulating member provided on an opposite side of the tube bottom across the plate spring member and urged in a direction opposite to a fitting direction of the mating hood by the plate spring member, a mating hood tip end surface formed at a tip end of the mating hood in the fitting direction, and a regulating member abutting surface provided on the backlash regulating member and pressed by the mating hood tip end surface in a fitted state that the housing and the mating housing are fitted.

A waterproof electrical connector system enables quick and easy coupling of a first and second housing to electrically connect a first and second electrical cable connected thereto. The electrical cables extend into a fixed portion of the housings and are electrically coupled with a bridging connector that is configured in a rotating portion of the housing. The assembly of the first and second housings has a latch and latch extension that can be moved along a radial portion of a latch channel to a circumferential portion of the latch channel to enable the rotating portions of the housings to be rotated. Upon rotating the rotating portions, the electrical cables are electrically connected by the bridging connector. The two housings may be substantially the same, having the same components and the same geometry. Each housing may have an inner and outer latch channel and latch interface, making operation quick and easy.

A LC type connector assembly with a push/pull cable boot integrally formed with a protrusion that accepts an adapter release for releasing a fiber optic connector from an adapter port.

It is aimed to provide a connector capable of improving the reliability of connection detection. A connector is provided with a first housing and a second housing connectable to each other, a detector arranged movably to a standby position and a detection position with respect to the first housing, the detector being allowed to move to the detection position when the first and second housings are connected properly, and a biasing member accommodated in either one of the first and second housings. The biasing member accumulates a biasing force by being pressed by the detector moving toward the detection position.

A connector has a detector (11) provided in a housing (10) movably in a front-rear direction and allowed to move from a standby position to a detection position in front of the standby position when both housings (10, 90) are connected properly. The housing (10) includes housing narrowing portions (76) narrowed toward a rear part, and the detector (11) includes two side walls (53) configured to cover both side surfaces of the rear part of the housing (10). The side walls (53) include detecting member narrowing portions (56) narrowed to correspond to the housing narrowing portions (76) in parts facing the housing narrowing portions (76).

A wiring harness assembly for serviceably housing an electrical fuse includes at least one electrical cable, a wiring harness plug mounted to the cable and including a first electrical connector, a first terminal having a mounting end for receiving an energized stud and at least one first fuse contacting end, at least one second terminal including a second electrical connector and a second fuse contacting end, and a terminal housing including a main body defining a first cavity and a receptacle defining a second cavity, wherein the first fuse contacting end of the first terminal and the second fuse contacting end of the second terminal are positioned within the first cavity, and wherein the receptacle is configured to receive the wiring harness plug including the first electrical connector with the first and second electrical connectors engaging each other in electrical communication.

A plug connector includes an insulative housing, a locking member located at an upper end of the insulative housing, and a pulling tape connected with the locking member, wherein the insulative housing includes an insertion member for the pulling tape to pass through, the pull tape includes a horizontal portion connected with the locking member, a handle portion for manual pulling, and a vertical portion located between the horizontal portion and the handle portion, and the handle portion is operable to pull horizontally backwards to move the locking member downwards to unlock the plug connector from a socket connector.

An arc prevention system including a jack having a receptacle, a modular plug sized to be positioned in the receptacle of the jack, the modular connector including, a plurality of contacts, with at least two of the contacts creating an energized electrical path with an external power source in electrical communication with the external power source, a latch extending from a top surface of the modular plug, a switching unit positioned on the latch, a control circuit in electrical communication with the switch and the at least two energized contacts, where the electrical path between the control circuit and the switching unit is not energized, and the control circuit adjusts the energized electrical path to a predetermined electrical level.

A split connector has a frame (10) fittable to a mating connector (B). A mounting portion (13) penetrates the frame (10) in a connecting direction to the mating connector (B), and lock portions (15) are formed on two facing sides of opening edge parts of the mounting portion (13). A support (16) is disposed between the lock portions (15) in an opening area of the mounting portion (13). A sub-connector (25) is to be mounted into the mounting portion (13) while holding terminal fittings (13). Two first locks (27) are formed on the sub-connector (25) and hold the sub-connector (25) in the mounting portion (13) by being locked to the lock portions (15). A second lock (29) is formed on the sub-connector (25) and is lockable to the support (16) in a direction opposite to the connecting direction to the mating connector (B).
