A connector locking mechanism includes a housing that includes an arm having a locking member for locking on one side and a working end on the other side and a CPA member, movably built in between a non-mating position and a complete mating position, having an arm pressing projection and an inclined surface. When mating, a mating connector is inserted into a mating opening, one side of the arm swivels on the leg portion as a fulcrum by the arm pressing projection to approach the mating connector, and the locking member is locked with the locking projection. When releasing mating, the CPA member is moved to the non-mating position, the inclined surface contacts the working end of the arm, the arm swivels moving away from the housing of the mating connector, and the locking member is released from the locking projection of the mating connector.

A connector for optically connecting an optical fiber to an optical fiber port at a leading edge of the connector, the connector comprising: a housing configured to receive the optical fiber; a latch coupled to the housing and extending from the housing toward the leading edge of the connector; and a handle coupled to the latch, the handle operable to move the latch between locked and unlocked positions with respect to the optical fiber port, wherein moving the handle away from the leading edge of the connector unlocks the latch from the optical fiber port.

A receptacle connector for mating with a plug connector having a mating tongue and a latch thereof, includes an insulative housing defining a mating slot extending along a longitudinal direction to receive the mating tongue of the plug connector, and an outer metallic shield defining a primary space to receive the housing and a secondary space communicatively beside the primary space to receive the latch of the plug connector. A plurality of contacts are disposed in the housing to mechanically and electrically connect to the mating tongue. An inner metallic shield is attached upon a long side of the housing to separate the primary space and the secondary space from each other in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

A fixing structure of a connector is disclosed. The connector includes an insert portion and multiple wires connected to the insert portion. The fixing structure includes a wire binding block, a lower shell and an upper shell disposed with multiple first engaging structures. The lower shell is disposed with multiple second engaging structures separately corresponding to the first engaging structures and connected with the upper shell to form a chamber for receiving the connector and form a wiring hole for being passed by the wires. The wires are extended from the insert portion toward the wiring hole to form a bend section and a curve section in the chamber. The wire binding block is fixed on the curve section of the wires and clamped by the upper shell and the lower shell through engagement of the first engaging structures and the second engaging structures.

An electric connector device for a human-powered vehicle comprises a connector base and a coupling structure. The connector base includes a first connection port and a second connection port. The first connection port defines a first center axis. The second connection port defines a second center axis. The second center axis is spaced apart from the first center axis as viewed in a predetermined direction. The coupling structure is configured to detachably attach the connector base to an additional device so that the connector base is non-movably attached to the additional device. The coupling structure is provided between the first center axis and the second center axis as viewed in the predetermined direction.

An electrical connector assembly includes, among other things, a connector that includes a connector lock arm that is cantilevered from one side of the connector to a free end. The connector lock arm has first and second apertures that are separated by a block. The assembly further includes a connector position assurance lock that has a base that supports a wave-shaped center lock arm that is received in the connector lock arm. The center lock arm extends to a nose that has a shoulder. The connector position assurance lock is slidable between unlocked and fully locked positions that respectively correspond to the shoulder arranged in the first and second apertures. The center lock arm has a bend joined to the nose by a portion that is parallel to the connector lock arm in the unlocked and fully locked positions. The center lock arm is configured to be deflected to an improper mating position with the portion arranged non-parallel to the connector lock arm.

A connector combination structure is provided. The connector combination structure includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes a first joint and at least one wedging portion. The second connector includes a housing, a second joint and at least one wedging arm. The second joint and the wedging arm are disposed in the housing. The wedging arm is adapted to be rotated between a first arm position and a second arm position. The first joint is adapted to be inserted into the housing to be connected to the second joint. When the wedging arm is located in the first arm position, the wedging arm is adapted to wedge the wedging portion. When the wedging arm is in the second arm position, the wedging arm is adapted to release the wedging portion.

A lens mounting apparatus includes a base including an opening, wherein a lens including a connection part is inserted and attached, an annular frame including a notch provided on a part of an outer periphery, a socket electrically connected to the connection part of the lens, and a first elastic member provided to urge the socket from the outer periphery toward a center of the annular frame. The annular frame is configured to fix the lens inserted and attached into the base by rotating the annular frame in one direction by a predetermined angle. When the annular frame does not fix the lens, the notch does not face the socket. When the annular frame fixes the lens, the notch faces the socket, and the socket is electrically connected to the connection part of the lens by an urging force of the first elastic member.

An electrical power distribution splitter is designed to receive high wattage electrical power, e.g. 80 W-600 W, and then to “split” that power into multiple low output wattage electrical power, e.g. 60 W/12V or 96 W/24V. An IC and circle board in the distribution splitter is used to reduce output power in this manner. The result is the ability to input a single large wattage electrical power supply to a distribution splitter which then outputs multiple lower wattages to a variety of individual different circuits, and, in so doing, a Class 2 UL power supply can be utilized. This is especially important in the signage industry where, for example, one large wattage power electrical supply feeding into the power distribution splitter can supply multiple smaller wattage power to different circuits in one sign.
