A clamp for establishing an electrical connection with a conductor is provided. The clamp comprises a first body and a second body. The second body is pivotally coupled to the first body. The first and second bodies define a receiving region therebetween for receiving a conductor. The first and second bodies are biased towards each other at the receiving region to clamp a conductor. The clamp also comprises a shutter, movably coupled to one of the first body and the second body. The shutter is biased into a restricting position in which entry into the receiving region is restricted.

A plug connector of the present disclosure includes a plug housing and a plurality of plug terminals stored in the plug housing. This plug connector is fitted in a receptacle connector having a receptacle terminal, and is connected to a cable having a sheet shape and including a cable terminal, thereby establishing electrical connection between the receptacle terminal and the cable terminal. Each of the plug terminals has a contact section and a connection section. The contact section is contactable with the receptacle terminal, and the connection section is connectable to the cable terminal. In a state in which the plug connector is fitted in the receptacle connector, the connection section is disposed such that the connection section is exposed from the plug housing.

A plug receptacle comprises a receptacle housing having a passage configured to receive at least a part of a plug of a plug connector, a front side having a first opening and a top side having a second, elongated opening that intersects the first opening, the passage opening to the front side via the first opening and to the top side via the second opening. The plug receptacle comprises at least one plug receptacle cover that is configured to move between a cover position and an elevated position. In the cover position, the at least one plug receptacle cover covers the second opening at least partially. In the elevated position, the at least one plug receptacle cover is elevated outwards along its entire length, so that the at least the part of the plug partially extends through the second opening.

A system for containing a strain relief, the system comprising an assembly housing, the assembly housing including: a first outer housing including a connector body; a second outer housing including a rear housing, wherein the first outer housing snaps into the second outer housing and creates a chain of contact points that connect components internal to the assembly housing and prevents internal components from rotating, wherein the assembly housing houses within a banana plug shaft, a strain relief and a solder junction, wherein the solder junction solders a first end of a conductor cable to the banana plug shaft, wherein the first end of the conductor cable is disposed within the assembly housing, and wherein via the chain of contact points, the banana plug shaft presses the strain relief into place and prevents movement of the strain relief and the solder junction.

A driver for driving a light engine of a luminaire is provided. The driver comprises a driver assembly with a driver circuit for converting an input current provided by a power supply into an output current for driving the light engine, a housing for receiving the driver assembly, and a driver interface being detachably engageable with a driver bracket. The driver interface comprises a mechanical interface for mechanically coupling the driver to a mechanical interface of the driver bracket and an electrical interface for electrically coupling the driver to an electrical interface of the driver bracket in such a way that the input current from the power supply to the driver circuit and the output current from the driver circuit to the light engine can flow via the driver interface. Further, a driver bracket and a luminaire are provided.

Examples are disclosed that relate to connector systems, magnetic plug assemblies and methods for mating a magnetic plug assembly with a plurality of receptacles. In one example, a magnetic plug assembly comprises a moveable member comprising an aperture and one or more magnets. A plug tip extends through the aperture, and one or more biasing elements urge the moveable member and the one or more magnets toward a distal end of the plug tip, with the moveable member being moveable relative to the plug tip.

An electrical connector assembly includes an electrical terminal that is mounted to a support structure. The assembly also includes a stabilizer that has a slot that receives a free end of the electrical terminal. The assembly further includes a first spring that operatively supports the stabilizer relative to support structure. The first spring biases the stabilizer away from the support structure to a pre-staged position. The first spring is configured to flex from the pre-staged position to an assembled connector position in which more of the free end protrudes through the slot than in the pre-staged position. The first spring extends from each of opposing sides of a first post which is arranged at a first lateral edge of the stabilizer. A second post and a second spring are arranged at a second lateral edge of the stabilizer opposite the first lateral edge.

A device (1) for conductive charging, having a vehicle unit (2) that is fixedly mounted on a vehicle, and a stationary, but moveably mounted robot unit (3), wherein: the vehicle unit (2) can be operatively connected to the robot unit (3) in order to carry out the charging process; the two units (2, 3) each have a housing (4, 10) in which associated contact elements (5, 11) are disposed; in the robot unit (3), the contact elements (5) are recessed in the housing (4) of the robot unit (3); the contact elements (11) in the housing (10) of the vehicle unit (2) are fixed in place; and the vehicle unit (2) has a centering cone (24) and the robot unit (3) has a mating cone (25), or vice versa, as centering means which can be mutually operatively connected, characterised in that the tapering angles of the centering cone (24) and of the mating cone (25) are different.

Racks and rack pods to support a plurality of sleds are disclosed herein. Switches for use in the rack pods are also disclosed herein. A rack comprises a plurality of sleds and a plurality of electromagnetic waveguides. The plurality of sleds are vertically spaced from one another. The plurality of electromagnetic waveguides communicate data signals between the plurality of sleds.
