Receptacle module and connector assembly
A connector assembly is provided. The connector assembly includes a receptacle module and a pluggable module. The receptacle module includes a cage, a receptacle connector, a biasing spring, and a locking member. The pluggable module is moved from a front end to a back end, so as to be aligned and mated with the receptacle module. The biasing spring is configured to apply a spring load toward the front end of the cage. Accordingly, the mating between the receptacle module and the pluggable module may be accomplished through alignment in the following manner: the pluggable module pushes the receptacle connector toward the back end to compress the biasing spring, so that the receptacle connector is moved toward the back end to the locking member to be mated with the pluggable module.

Connector
A receptacle 47 includes a resiliently deformable lock arm 55 extending in a front-rear direction. The lock arm 55 includes a locking projection 57 projecting into the receptacle 47 from a rear end part and a stopping projection 59 projecting into the receptacle 47 from a location forward of the locking projection 57. The moving plate 42 includes a lock portion 76 at a position corresponding to the lock arm 55. A rear surface of the lock portion 76 faces the locking projection 57 to restrict a movement of the moving plate 42 to a connection position and a front surface of the lock portion 76 faces the stopping projection 59 to restrict a forward movement of the moving plate 42 when the moving plate 42 is at the initial position.
Electrical connector with locking spring
An electrical connector includes a housing formed in a single piece and including a recess, a compression spring disposed in the recess, and a position assurance element having a head disposed in the recess and inserted through a first end of the compression spring. The compression spring is unloaded in a plugged-in position of the electrical connector into a mating connector and opposes plugging of the electrical connector into the mating connector in a loaded state. The first end of the compression spring exerts a force only on the position assurance element, the position assurance element exerts a force on the one-piece housing, and a second end of the compression spring opposite the first end along a longitudinal axis of the compression spring exerts a force only on the recess of the housing.
Connector having a fitting, a housing, and a conductive component
There is provided a connector including: a terminal fitting including a terminal portion, a conductor connection portion, and a connecting portion that connects the terminal portion and the conductor connection portion; a housing including an accommodating chamber that accommodates the terminal fitting from the terminal portion to the connecting portion, and a terminal drawing port that allows the conductor connection portion to be drawn out of the accommodating chamber toward a removal direction of the terminal portion; and a conductive component soldering a conductor to the conductor connection portion inserted into a through-hole, in which the connecting portion includes a first coupling portion that is coupled to the terminal portion, a second coupling portion that is coupled to the conductor connection portion, and a third coupling portion.
Methods and mechanisms for monitoring charging port functionality
A vehicle configured to execute one or more methods for detecting function of a charging receptacle during a charging cycle. The methods include supplying a charging current through the pins; monitoring a pin temperature of the pins during the charging current; and applying a first step function to the charging current. The methods may also include monitoring a first step change in the pin temperature during the first step function; comparing the first step change in the pin temperature to a first expected temperature change to create a first deviation; and comparing the first deviation to a predetermined threshold. If the first deviation exceeds the predetermined threshold, signaling a maintenance alert, and if the first deviation is less than the predetermined threshold, logging the first deviation.
Holding frame for a plug connector and methods of populating same
The present invention relates to the field of holding frames (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) for modules (9) and in particular of holding frames (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) for a plug connector for receiving similar and/or different modules (9). In order to provide a holding frame (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) that can be populated in an installed state with little of no additional space around the holding frame (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7), a base frame (111, 211, 311, 411, 511, 611, 711) which defines a plane transverse to an insertion direction of the module (9) into the holding frame (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) and which has mutually opposite end faces (112, 212, 312, 412, 512, 612, 712) and mutually opposite side walls (113, 213, 313, 413, 513, 613, 713) is proposed, as is a fixing member (120, 220, 320, 420, 520, 620, 720) which is attached to a side wall (113, 213, 313, 413, 513, 613, 713) of the base frame (111, 211, 311, 411, 511, 611, 711) and which allows deformation between an insertion state that allows the module (9) to be inserted into the holding frame (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) in the insertion direction and a holding state in which an inserted module (9) is fixed in place, along the insertion direction at least, by a latching lug (91) of the module (9) and by the fixing member (120, 220, 320, 420, 520, 620, 720), wherein the fixing member (120, 220, 320, 420, 520, 620, 720) is so designed that the deformation includes movement of at least one fixing arm (121, 221, 321, 421, 521, 621, 721) of the fixing member (120, 220, 320, 420, 520, 620, 720) in the longitudinal direction of the side wall (113, 213, 313, 413, 513, 613, 713).

Compact protective cable conduit for clean room applications and encasing unit and arrangement with support chain for same
A protective cable conduit for lines in a clean room application, with a flexible encasement which is movable back and forth for routing a line. Each receptacle extends in channel-like fashion from a first end to a second end. The encasement comprises at least one encasing unit, which forms the at least one receptacle for a line. The encasing unit has a first fastening strip on one longitudinal side and a second fastening strip on the other longitudinal side. The first and the second fastening strip are designed for releasable connection by interlocking engagement and/or frictional engagement, for example with a cooperating hook profile and claw profile, and are connectable to one another in a connection direction transverse to the longitudinal direction. A plurality of encasing units can thus be fastened to one another releasably using mating fastening strips by connecting the fastening strips in a connection direction transverse to the longitudinal direction. An arrangement of a protective cable conduit with support chains, wherein each support chain is routed in an associated encasing unit which accommodates only the associated support chain(s), such that this is replaceable separately from lines routed in the encasement.
