A holding frame for a plug-type connector is intended to have good heat resistance and a high level of mechanical robustness and, when installed in a metallic plug-type connector housing, enable protective grounding while at the same time being convenient to use, in particular during the replacement of individual modules. To this end, it is proposed to manufacture the holding frame at least partially from spring-elastic sheet metal. For this purpose, the holding frame can have a basic portion and a deformation portion, which are formed from different materials. The basic portion is used for fixing an accommodated module in a plane. The deformation portion can assume an insertion state and a holding state, wherein the insertion state permits insertion of at least one module into the holding frame in a direction transverse to the plane and an accommodated module is fixed in the holding state.

A cable connector including a connector shell including a support and an insert, wherein the insert includes a surface inclined to a cable-to-face direction of the insert so as to re-direct force applied on a face side of the insert sideways toward sides of the connector shell, and the support includes a surface inclined to the cable-to-face direction of the connector shell so as to react to the force, pushing back on the insert, thereby exerting a compression force on the insert. Related apparatus and methods are also described.

An electrical connector includes an inner conductor to transmit a signal; an insulator that covers an outer circumferential surface of the inner conductor; an outer conductor that covers an outer circumferential surface of the insulator and is insulated from the inner conductor by the insulator; an insulating mold that covers an outer circumferential surface of the outer conductor; and a conductor that is conductively connected with the outer conductor and penetrates the insulating molded, the conductor having a surface that is positioned outside the insulating mold and inclined toward a connection destination, and the outer conductor and the conductor are integrally formed.

An adaptor for electric vehicle charging connectors allows an EV to be shifted from park even though the charging connector is still connected to the charging port. As a result, a driver needs not leave the EV to unplug the charging connector. The adapter can include an inner portion housing inner charging pin portions and inner communication pin portions and an outer portion housing outer charging pin portions and outer communication pin portions. The adapter can also include a switching mechanism for selectively forming a connection between one of the outer communication pin portions and one of the inner communication pin portions. The outer charging pin portions and outer communication pin portions can be configured to separate from the inner charging pin portions and inner communication pin portions respectively when the outer portion of the adapter is separated from the inner portion of the adapter.

A movable connector disclosed in the present description includes: a connector having a housing; and a connector mounting part to which the housing is movably mounted. The housing is provided with at least one mounting pin constituted by a plurality of elastic pieces arranged in a circular ring, and the connector mounting part is provided with mounting recesses (mounting tubular portions) that hold the mounting pin in a state in which it is inserted into the corresponding mounting recess. The mounting pin is capable of relative movement inside the mounting recess in directions that intersect a direction in which the mounting pin is mounted into the mounting recess, and the mounting pin is provided on one or two of the outer peripheral sides of the housing.

It is aimed to reliably hold a terminal fitting in a dielectric while realizing miniaturization. A connector includes terminal fittings (20) connected to cores (16) of a shielded cable (15), a dielectric (23) made of synthetic resin and capable of accommodating the terminal fittings (20) in a positioned state, and an upper case (24) and a lower case (34) constituting a dielectric (23) by being united to sandwich the terminal fittings (20). The upper case (24) and the lower case (34) are united and divided in a direction intersecting an arrangement direction of the terminal fittings (20) and the cores (16) connected to the terminal fittings (20).

A coaxial cable connector includes an outer barrel having a front end and a rear end. The connector includes an inner sleeve within the outer barrel defining a bore, the inner sleeve moving between uncompressed and compressed conditions and including a finger which is formed in the inner sleeve for resilient movement between a neutral position in which the finger is out of the bore, and a deformed position in which the finger is deformed into the bore. The finger includes a base formed to the inner sleeve and a free end. Axial movement of the inner sleeve with respect to the outer barrel from a compressed condition to an uncompressed condition imparts movement to the finger from the neutral position to the deformed position.

An automatic ejection mechanism of a connecting device includes an outer shell defining an accommodating space and including a rear cover covering a rear end of the accommodating space, a connector slidably received within the accommodating space, a fastening assembly located between the connector and the rear cover, and a resilient member located between the connector and the rear cover. The resilient member drives the connector to slide toward an opening of a front end of the accommodating space. The connector is received within the accommodating space by being fastened to the connector. The connector is ejected out of the opening of the front end by releasing the fastener from the connector.

An electrical connector used for mating with a mating connector includes: an insulating body, having a base and a tongue extending from the base; a metal shell, wrapping the insulating body and forming a mating cavity with the tongue; two rows of terminals, fixedly disposed on the insulating body and exposed on the tongue, one of the two rows of terminals having at least one ground terminal; and a middle shielding sheet, disposed on the insulating body and located between the two rows of terminals. Each of the at least one ground terminal has an extending portion, and the extending portion extends away from the middle shielding sheet and abuts the metal shell.

A plug for a connector and the connector are provided. The plug includes an elastic main body, the elastic main body is provided with multiple through holes for cables to pass through; the plug includes a support body, the support body includes a first support body embedded in a middle part of the elastic main body, the through holes are provided around the first support body, and the support body has a hardness greater than that of the elastic main body. In this application, due to the elastic material characteristics of the elastic main body, when the claw members are squeezed by the first nut to contract and then the claw members force the plug tightly from periphery, the plug can generate a certain deformation to be tightly clamped by the claw members and press the cables from the outside to the middle part.
