This disclosure provides a method and apparatus for connecting and disconnecting various electrical components. More specifically, an apparatus that includes an electrical contact and an insulated housing. In an embodiment, the electrical contact includes a first insulation displacement contact, a second insulation displacement contact, and a motion-force portion. The motion-force portion is configured to allow the electrical contact to be actuated around a central axis and relative to the insulated housing. The first and second insulation displacement contacts allow for the electrical contact to create an electrical and mechanical connection between respective wires when the electrical contact is rotated. A rotary insulation displacement contact (IDC) junction connector allows for two wires to be reliably and safely connected in environments where space is limited.

Provided is a connector that can enhance the waterproof performance without reducing a pressure of a contact surface between fillers in a fitted state. A connector (10) according to the present disclosure includes a pair of fitting objects to be fitted to each other and a filler (70), a contact (50) and a wall (42) provided in the fitting objects. The wall (42) separates the filler (70) and the contact (50) after the fitting objects are fitted to each other.

An electrical connector includes a clamp body having a substantially C-shaped configuration defining an interior cavity. A wedge is configured to be inserted into the clamp body. The wedge has a wedge body defining a conductor channel and a plurality of fins extending from the wedge body into the conductor channel. The plurality of fins is oriented to pierce an insulation layer of a conductor when the wedge is inserted into a clamp body.

The present invention provides a piercing-through structure for a connector, comprising a hollow-core body, a lead, and a receptacle. Wherein a front connection portion is disposed at a front end of the hollow-core body; a plurality of wires extending forward is disposed at a front end of the lead disposed at a rear segment in the hollow-core body; and a plurality of metallic spikes is disposed at a front end of the connector of the receptacle and a connection sleeve movably fits around a front end of the body. So that connecting the hollow-core body and the receptacle together enables the connection sleeve of the receptacle to fit around the front connection portion of the hollow-core body, allowing the metallic spikes to pierce across surfaces of the wires such that, after piercing insulating sheaths of the wires, the metallic spikes come into contact with metallic cores of the wires, so as to achieve electrical connection of the connector of the receptacle and the wires of the hollow-core body.

A plug connector includes a first housing part having a plug contact element with a plurality of blades that are electrically conductively connected and a second housing part having a receiving area receiving a conductor foil. The second housing part has a first ridge pressing the conductor foil in the receiving area in a direction of the blades while the first housing part and the second housing part are pushed into each other. The first ridge engages in a fit with a first blade of the plurality of blades when a first area of the first blade is bent in a direction of the first ridge.

A self-piercing connector comprising, a first body, a second body, the first body comprising a first cutting member for piercing a fluid conduit insulating layer to engage a fluid conduit first conductor, the second body comprising a second cutting member for piercing the fluid conduit insulating layer to engage a fluid conduit second conductor, the first cutting member having a semi-circular form and comprising portions that extend tangentially from each end of the first cutting member, the second cutting member having a semi-circular form and comprising portions that extend tangentially from each end of the second cutting member, the first cutting member and the second cutting member electrically isolated from each other, the first body comprising a first connection member for engaging a cooperating second connection member on the second body, a first body receiver for receiving an electrical conductor connectable to the first cutting member, and a second body receiver for receiving an electrical conductor connectable to the second cutting member.
