An anti-theft structure for an electronic control unit which includes an electronic control unit including assembly brackets mounted on both sides thereof and connector mounting grooves formed in an upper portion thereof to be spaced apart from each other; connectors coupled to the connector mounting grooves, and including connector coupling portions therein; and a safety bracket including side coupling portions on both ends of the safety bracket, the side coupling portions being engaged with assembly brackets, and bracket coupling portions corresponding to the connector coupling portions and the bracket coupling portions being engaged with the connector coupling portions.

An assembly detachably securing an electrical device to a support surface includes a support socket, a first coaxial electrical connector slidable within the support socket via a biasing element, a fitting module connectable to the electrical device has a second co-axial electrical connector for connection with the first coaxial electrical connector. An internal wall of the support socket includes projections, each defining a camming surface and a retaining recess; an external wall of the fitting module comprises externally projecting lugs. The fitting module is secured into the support socket by pushing in the axial direction against the biasing element, such that a lug is directed along a camming surface to thereby move itself or another lug between two projections to enter a retaining recess. The fitting module is released from the support socket by pushing in the axial direction against the biasing element.

A connector is provided in which, only inserting a plug and a socket with each other, a plug body and a socket body are rotated relative to each other around a center axis line to a regular position, and the overall outer diameter of the connector can be reduced. An outward protrusion 9 is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the distal end portion of an insertion portion 7 of a plug body 4, a plurality of inward ridges 17 extending in an axial direction facing are provided on the inner surface of a cylindrical portion 8 of a socket body 6, a groove 16 through which the outward protrusion 9 can pass is formed between each of the adjacent ridges 17, and an inclined cam surface 18 is provided on the inner surface of the cylindrical portion 8 closer to the proximal end portion than the ridge 17, so that the protrusion 9 can slidably contacts and guides the plug body 4 to a regular position.

Disclosed is a connector assembly having a first connector part and a second connector part. The first connector part includes a lever mounted on a base body of the first connector part for pivotable movement about a pivot axis (C) between first and second positions relative to the base body. The connector assembly can be brought from a ready-to-mate state into a mated state by relative movement of the first and second connector parts towards each other along a connection axis and vice versa. At least one engaging portion of the lever interacts with at least one counter-engaging portion of the second connector part in such a way, that the connector assembly is forcibly brought from the mated to the ready-to-mate state by pivoting the lever from the first position into the second position when the connector assembly is in the mated state.

A lever connector includes a first connector housing, a second connector housing fitted to and detached from the first connector housing, a lever rotatably supported by the second connector housing, a cam pin formed in the first connector housing, and a cam groove formed in the lever, pressing the cam pin by rotation of the lever, and applies a fitting force and a detachment force between the first connector housing and the second connector housing. The cam pin is slidably disposed in the cam groove. Further, the corn pin is disposed on a lateral side of a rotation center of the lever, and is disposed on a detachment side of the second connector housing relative to a line that passes through the rotation center and is orthogonal to an insertion/removal direction of the first connector housing and the second connector housing.

An electrical header for use in an electrical connector assembly includes a body for mounting to an object and having an opening formed therethrough for receiving an electrical terminal. The body further defines a plug on a first side thereof for engaging with a mating electrical connector of the assembly. The plug includes a pair of first opposing sidewalls extending from the body at a first height and defining a locking feature for engaging with a corresponding locking feature of the mating connector, and a pair of second opposing sidewalls extending from the body at a second height, less than the first height. The first and second pairs of opposing sidewalls are adapted to mate with a first mating connector oriented in a first direction, and mate with a second mating connector oriented in a second direction distinct from the first direction.

The connector shroud of the present invention includes an inner housing, a cam, a coupling nut and a lock nut. The inner housing has a grooved control link formed on an outer surface. The grooved control link extends in a longitudinal direction. The cam is disposed on the inner housing and is rotatable on the inner housing. The coupling nut is sleeved onto the inner housing. The coupling nut is configured to be coupled to an object. The coupling nut includes a tab extending from a rear end. The tab has a control slot formed thereon. The control slot extends in a direction not parallel to the longitudinal direction. The lock nut is sleeved onto the inner housing and includes a first pin and a second pin formed on an inner surface. The first pin is movable in the grooved control link and the second pin is movable in the control slot. When the second pin is in the control slot, a movement of the lock nut causes the coupling nut to rotate. When the first pin moves in the grooved control link in the longitudinal direction, the lock nut contacts the cam to make the cam rotate. The rotating cam applies a force perpendicular to the longitudinal direction to the tab to rotate the coupling nut.

An electrical header for use in an electrical connector assembly includes a body adapted to mount to an object and having an opening formed therethrough for receiving an electrical terminal. The body further defines a plug on a first side thereof and adapted to engage with a mating electrical connector of the assembly. The plug includes a pair of first opposing sidewalls extending from the body and defining a locking feature adapted to engage with a corresponding locking feature of the mating connector, and a pair of second opposing sidewalls extending from the body and defining a keying feature. The first and second pairs of opposing sidewalls are adapted to mate with a first mating connector oriented in a first direction, and mate with a second mating connector oriented in a second direction distinct from the first direction.

A power supply circuit breaking device includes a first connector housing, a second connector housing, a main lock unit locking in a finally fitted state in which the second connector housing is completely fitted to the first connector housing, a sub-lock unit locking in a temporarily fitted state in which a part of the second connector housing is fitted to the first connector housing, a main switch unit switched on in the finally fitted state and the temporarily fitted state, and a sub-switch unit switched on in the finally fitted state and switched off in the temporarily fitted state. The sub-lock unit includes a sub-lock claw formed in the first connecter housing, and an operation portion provided in the second connector housing and having an engaging plate portion engaged with the sub-lock claw in the temporarily fitted state.

A terminal for electrically connecting at least one conductor comprises an insulating material housing, a contact body with a contact frame and a contact spring, and an operating element. The operating element has a bearing region for rotatably mounting the operating element in the insulating material housing about a rotation axis, and at least one operating structure, which is at a radial distance from the bearing region and extends in the direction of the rotation axis, for moving the clamping limb between the conductor clamping position and the conductor release position in the event of a rotational movement of the operating element about its rotation axis. The insulating material housing has a supporting region which axially extends between the rotation axis and the operating structure to support the operating structure on the supporting region at least in the conductor release position.
