A shielded connector includes a housing having a front opening portion and an electric wire insertion portion, a terminal to be accommodated in a terminal accommodating portion of the housing and to be connected to a mating terminal, a connection terminal to be connected to an electric wire, a first shielding shell to cover a rear surface of the housing, a second shielding shell having a braid connection portion and a shell fixing portion to be connected to the first shielding shell, a first fastening member to fasten the housing to the first shielding shell, a second fastening member to fasten the connection terminal to the terminal, and a third fastening member to fasten the shell fixing portion to the first shielding shell. The first, second and third fastening members have fastening directions parallel to each other, and are fastened from a front surface side of the housing.

A connection assembly for connection to an audio device includes a connector module including a connector configured for electronic connection to a mating connector of the audio device and a releasable latch configured for retaining the connector module to the audio device, an actuator engageable with the connector module and being moveable to release the latch for removal of the connector module from the audio device, and locking structure configured to selectively resist movement of the actuator to release the latch.

A contact assembly for a connector housing includes an adapter element and a contact element. The adapter element has a sleeve with a lead-through opening extending in an axial direction of the sleeve and with a threaded bore extending perpendicularly to the lead-through opening through the sleeve. The contact element is adapted to be inserted into the lead-through opening and latched to the sleeve. The contact element may exhibit varying types of a cable connection section and/or a contact section. The adapter element is receivable within the connector housing and may accept the contact element regardless of the type of cable connection section and/or contact section.

A connector includes a terminal, a housing, a temperature sensor, and a holding structure. The holding structure holds the temperature sensor so as to be movable in at least a first orthogonal direction in a space portion (housing formation space portion). The housing has the base portion and the pressing arm portion extending from the base portion in the contact direction and elastically deformable with respect to the first orthogonal direction orthogonal to the contact direction. The pressing arm portion has a protrusion portion that protrudes into the space portion and comes into contact with the temperature sensor. When the protrusion portion comes into contact with the temperature sensor, the pressing arm portion is elastically deformed to press the temperature sensor located in the space portion with respect to the first orthogonal direction, and the pressed temperature sensor is brought into contact with the terminal.

A sealing installation device for hermetically mounting a housing to a panel includes an elastic sealing washer and a connection member. The elastic sealing washer is disposed between a base of the housing and the panel and seals a mating interface between the base and the panel. The elastic sealing washer has a through slot into which a protrusion formed on a bottom surface of the base is inserted. A thickness of the elastic sealing washer is greater than a height of the protrusion. The connection member connects the base of the housing, the elastic sealing washer, and the panel together. A difference between the thickness of the elastic sealing washer and the height of the protrusion is a predetermined value equal to a compression amount of the elastic sealing washer after the housing is installed on the panel.
