The silicone rubber has an unnotched Charpy impact strength at −60° C. of 11.5 kJ/mm.sup.2 or more. A waterproof connector 1 includes the sealing member 10 and the connector terminals 20. The connector terminals 20 are inserted into the insertion holes 11 of the sealing member 10.

An electrical feed-through includes: a feed-through component having an opening; at least one conductor sealed into the opening of the feed-through component in a glass material or a glass ceramic material; and at least one guide component connected to the feed-through component, the at least one guide component including a material that is a plastic.

A wiring harness plug connector. The wiring harness plug connector encompasses a contact carrier and at least one electrical lead. The contact carrier has at least one passthrough conduit for the at least one electrical lead. The at least one electrical lead is passed through the passthrough conduit in an insertion direction. The contact carrier has, in front of the at least one passthrough conduit when viewed in the insertion direction, a partition that surrounds a sealing space. Provision is made that the sealing space is filled with a sealant in such a way, and that the sealant at least locally fills up the at least one passthrough conduit in such a way, that the at least one electrical lead is surrounded in fluid-tight fashion.

A power plug device includes a first housing, a circuit board, a wire assembly and a second housing. The first housing includes an upper-housing body, a through hole and an inner cover. An accommodating portion is arranged in the upper-housing body, the through hole is formed on one side of the upper-housing body, the inner cover is installed in the accommodating portion, a receptive space is arranged in the inner cover, and the through hole interconnects with the receptive space. The wire assembly includes core wires, which passes through the through hole and the receptive space, so that the core wires are accommodated in the accommodating portion, and the receptive space is suitable for accommodating glue to secure the core wires and provides waterproof effect. In addition, dual-layered waterproof structure is used to make the first and second housing joining together having stronger waterproof effect.

A high-current contact device includes a first contact element transmitting electrical energy, a circuit carrier, a first data contact transmitting data, and a data interface. The first contact element extends through the circuit carrier along a mating axis at a feedthrough. A conductor track of the circuit carrier electrically connects the first data contact to the data interface. A carrier of the circuit carrier is injection-molded and mechanically supports the first data contact, the conductor track, and the data interface.

A wire connection part of a terminal fitting includes: a barrel piece which is caulked while covering a tip end of a wire, thereby being crimped to the wire; a serration part formed on an inner surface of the barrel piece and connected to a core of the wire; and a water stop part mounted on the inner surface of the barrel piece to close a gap with the wire. A projecting piece mounted anterior to the serration part to position a tip end of the core is mounted to the barrel piece. The tip end of the core is positioned by the projecting piece, whereby the positional deviation of the wire can be prevented.

A flushing arrangement for flushing a surface of a wet-mateable connector for subsea use is provided. The flushing arrangement has a cartridge adapted to form a chamber around the surface to be flushed prior to flushing. The cartridge has a sealing portion adapted to be sealed against a part of the connector. An inlet port for receiving a fluid from a fluid source and an outlet port for discharging a fluid are provided. Plural flow channels are formed in the cartridge, the plural flow channels comprising flow channels providing a fluid connection between the inlet port and the chamber for enabling a flow of fluid into the chamber and flow channels providing a fluid connection between the chamber and the outlet port for enabling a flow of medium out of the chamber.

The connector includes: at least one contact; a housing to which the contact is arranged; a shell formed into a cylindrical shape inside of which the housing is disposed; and a joining member formed of a resin material; wherein the housing and the contact form an integral unit by means of the joining member, and the joining member is closely fitted within an inner surface of the shell or the joining member is integrally coupled to the inner surface of the shell. Thus, the number of components of the connector can be reduced but the manufacturing flexibility thereof can be increased and the connector can be easily miniaturized and manufactured.

A sealing device and method for sealing an electrical terminal. The sealing device includes a heat shrinkable tubing having an inner wall. A first sealant/adhesive is configured to cooperate with the heat shrinkable tubing. The first sealant/adhesive has a first sealant/adhesive first surface and an oppositely facing first sealant/adhesive second surface. The second surface of the first sealant/adhesive is bonded to the inner wall of the heat shrinkable tubing. A second sealant/adhesive is configured to cooperate with free ends of electrical conductors which are in electrical engagement with the electrical terminal. The second sealant/adhesive has a second sealant/adhesive first surface and an oppositely facing second sealant/adhesive second surface. The second sealant/adhesive first surface is provided in engagement with the electrical conductors. The second sealant/adhesive second surface is provided in engagement and bonded with the first sealant/adhesive first surface.

A method for producing a multi-core cable includes arranging first and second contact elements in a contact carrier having first and second longitudinal channels connecting a contacting side to a cable side, and first and second through-openings respectively crossing the first and second longitudinal channels, and a second through-opening crossing the second longitudinal channel. The first and second longitudinal channels and the first and second through-openings are sealed in a fluid-tight manner by inserting two first sealing pieces into the first through-opening and two second sealing pieces into the second through-opening. In an injection-molding method, a connecting piece is formed connecting the contact carrier to the outer sheath of the cable by overmolding at least a rear section of the contact carrier comprising the first and second through-openings and a section of the cable protruding on the cable side.
