It is aimed to provide a connector mating body capable of preventing a sealing member from damage when a bolt is tightened and loosened. A connector mating body (1) is formed by tightening a bolt (4) arranged in a collar (6) of a first housing (2) with a nut (5) of a second housing (3). A reduced-diameter portion (44) having a smaller outer diameter than a flange portion (43) of a head portion (41) is formed on a part of a tip side (L2) of the head portion (41) of the bolt (4). A tip surface (441) of the reduced-diameter portion (44) is in contact with a base end surface (611) of the collar (6). A tip part (462) of a first oil-proof sealing member (46) is sandwiched between the base end surface (611) of the collar (6) and a tip surface (431) of the flange portion (43).

An electrical connector for receiving an electronic device defining a mating plate with conductive pads and a positioning plate includes: a connector housing defining a mating slot opening forward and terminal grooves on opposite sides of the mating slot, plural conductive terminals, and a positioning portion surrounding the connector housing. Each conductive terminal has a resilient arm received in the terminal groove. The positioning portion is spaced from the connector housing by a positioning slot. The positioning slot is used for insertion of the positioning plate of the electronic device.

An electrical connector includes an insulating body, a plurality of first terminals and a plurality of second terminals. The insulating body includes a first insulating body, a second insulating body and a third insulating body. A rear end of the first insulating body has an accommodating groove. The first insulating body has a plurality of first terminal grooves. The second insulating body is mounted in the accommodating groove. Several portions of a top surface of the second insulating body are recessed downward to form a plurality of second terminal grooves. The third insulating body is mounted on a lower portion of the rear of the second insulating body. The plurality of the first terminals are mounted in the plurality of the first terminal grooves. The plurality of the second terminals are mounted in the plurality of the second terminal grooves.

A connector includes a housing provided with an accommodating cavity and a first opening communicating with the accommodating cavity; a circuit board disposed in the accommodating cavity and provided with a first signal connection point; a connection head disposed on the housing and including a second signal connection point for external device connection; and a switch disposed in the first opening, being respectively connected to the first signal connection point and the second signal connection point. The switch is used for controlling the connection or disconnection between the first signal connection point and the second signal connection point. In the above-mentioned manner, the connector and a heavy load may be disconnected by the switch when the connector is pulled out, so that risks of instant ignition and short circuit caused by the connector pulled out may be avoided, and safety accidents may be reduced.

A rotatable power strip outlet assembly that includes a power strip housing, a plurality of electrical sockets formed on a front surface of the power strip housing, and a rear plug support member rotatably coupled to the power strip housing, that includes a front surface, a rear surface, and an electrical plug disposed on the rear surface of the rear plug support member and with electrical prongs extending outwardly away from the rear surface of the rear plug support member and electrically coupled to the plurality of electrical sockets, wherein the power strip housing is operably configured to selectively rotate at least 270° with respect to the rear plug support member to reorient the power strip housing while plugged into an electrical outlet.
