A support connector for maintaining an end of a linear LED lamp in an operative state on a support. The support connector comprises a nonconductive housing comprising a first portion including a mounting base at one end of the first portion configured to couple the support connector to the support. A second portion extends from the opposite end of the first portion and is configured to be insertable within an opening of a first end cap assembly of the linear LED lamp. First and second power electrical terminals are disposed within first and second receptacles of the support connector, and a grounding electrical terminal is disposed within a third receptacle, and the grounding electrical terminal is electrically isolated from the first and second power terminals. The first and second power electrical terminals mate with first and second conductive power pins of the end cap assembly, and the grounding electrical terminal is configured to mate with a grounding pin of the end cap assembly as the first end cap assembly is moved relative to the support connector from a position fully separated from the support connector in a path that is transverse to the length of the body into an engaged position.

An electrical connector has an insulative body, a group of first conductive terminals and a group of second conductive terminals fixed to the insulative body, a grounding metal plate and an outer shielding shell. A front part of the shell forms a first mating cavity and a rear part of the shell forms a second mating cavity. An insertion space is formed between elastic extending arms of the first terminal group and elastic extending arms of the second terminal group. An electrical connector combination, which includes the electrical connector and a circuit board, is further provided. An inserted portion of the circuit board can be correspondingly inserted into the insertion space and can be elastically interposed by the elastic extending arms of the first terminal group and the elastic extending arms of the second terminal group so as to be correspondingly electrically connected.

A connector device includes an electrical connector that connects to a receptacle connector, an electric cable connected to the electrical connector, and a lock member attached to the electrical connector. The lock member has a main body portion to sandwich the electrical connector in a fitted state between the receptacle connector and the main body portion, and a lock engagement portion to engage with a connector engagement portion provided in the receptacle connector. The lock engagement portion has a hanging portion, a folded portion, and an extending portion.

A moving plate (13) is inserted into a receptacle (11) of a connector body (12) and movable between a partial locking position and a connection position and includes partial locking portions (91) and resilient locking pieces (46). The partial locking portions (91) restrict movement of the moving plate (13) to the connection position. The resilient locking pieces (46) lock to receiving portions (75) of a mating connector (60) and allow movement from the connection position to the partial locking position by being kept locked to the receiving portions (75) while separating the mating connector from the receptacle (11). The connector body (12) has restricting surfaces (28) to restrict deflection of the resilient locking pieces (46) until a riding amount of the partial locking portions (91) on second interfering portions (36) is a maximum when the moving plate (13) returns from the connection position to the partial locking position.

The housing possesses a bottom wall and a periphery wall that surrounds a periphery of the bottom wall and is composed of a pair of first side walls retaining contacts with the contacts aligned in an arrangement direction, and a pair of second side walls, one of which connects one ends of the pair of first side walls, another of which connects other ends of the pair of first side walls. The mounting members possess a first mounting section covering at least part of each region, in which no contacts are aligned, of the first side walls, and a second mounting section that is separated from the first mounting section and covers at least part of the second side walls.

A connector assembly connecting cables for power transmission may be provided. The connector assembly includes: a first linking body connected to one cable; a second linking body connected to another cable; a coupling member which is coupled to the first linking body and the second linking body and includes a catching groove formed on one end thereof and a catching opening formed along a circumference of the other end thereof; and a spring which includes two L-shaped rods and a bridge connecting the L-shaped rods, the bridge being coupled to the catching groove when the spring is mounted on the coupling member, the two L-shaped rods being coupled to the catching opening.

A connector includes a garment-side connector portion and a module-side connector portion, the garment-side connector portion has a garment-side connector body with a first fitting surface and a lateral wall, first contacts and a locking portion disposed on the first fitting surface, the module-side connector portion has a module-side connector body with a second fitting surface and a lateral surface, second contacts and a portion to be locked disposed in the second fitting surface, an elastically deformable first waterproof member is disposed on one of the lateral wall of the garment-side connector body and the lateral surface of the module-side connector body so as to surround the first fitting surface or the second fitting surface, and the locking portion locks a position of the portion to be locked only when the module-side connector body is fitted with the garment-side connector body in a predetermined orientation.

An electro-mechanical coupler includes a source housing with a source surface and a load housing with a load surface. Both housings have through-holes for inserting and attaching tubes. One end of a first tube is insertable into the other tube. The source and load housings carry sets of plural electrical terminals that are brought into electrical contact with each other when the housing surfaces engage and they are oriented in a complementary topographic combination, such as the beveled slots of the source housing receiving the beveled inserts of the load housing. Spring-loaded plural electrical terminals extend from the bottom of the slot in the source housing and from the end of the insert in the load housing. A pivoting, sliding latch holds the source housing to the load housing, and a cam system assists in separating the source and load housings and their respective tubes.
