Flexible, interruptible radial bus and bus-mounted bead device
A multi-conductor bus with radially arranged conductor wires on which addressable bead devices that may incorporate light-emitting diodes (LEDs) or other surface mount devices (SMDs) can be easily mounted. The radial bus is designed to provide an improved range of flexibility and motion while allowing for easy addition of bead devices along its length that utilize self-addressing bus protocols such as cascading device protocols. The design of the flexible, interruptible radial bus facilitates the use of pass-through and interrupted paths along the bus that simplifies the installation of addressable devices along the bus such as the bus-mounted bead devices disclosed herein.
Compact multi-line connector
A multi-line electrical assembly that includes a multi-line cable (14), including a multiplicity of insulated conductive wires (59); and a multi-line electrical plug (16), physically connected to the cable. The plug has a housing (56) and a plurality of spaced-apart printed circuit hoards (PCBs, 48), housed in the housing and having a first end (47) that is connected to the cable and having a second end (46), separated from the first end. Further, the PCBs bear a plurality of conductive traces (50), at least some of the traces being electrically connected to the wires proximal to the first end. The traces terminate proximal to the second end.
PATCH PANEL TRACEABLE NETWORKING SYSTEM
Disclosed are network cable system and components thereof and methods for using the network cable system and components. The network cable system includes one or more components, such as panels, cables, connectors, mobile devices, etc. In one aspect, a panel is configured to wirelessly communicate with a mobile device to receive selections for port tracing. Based on a selected port, the panel is configured to cause an indicator corresponding to the selected port to output an indication to enable port tracing. In another aspect, a panel is configured to wirelessly communicate network related information determined by the panel or received at the panel from another networking component to the mobile device to enable remote monitoring, setup, and adjustment of the network.
POWER SUPPLY ADAPTER
A power supply adapter includes a base plate, an electrical connector assembly disposed on the base plate, a support frame, a circuit board, and a shell body. The electrical connector assembly includes a hot connector assembly, a neutral connector assembly, and a ground connector assembly. When the adapter is plugged into a two-prong socket, the ground connector assembly is grounded to the two-prong socket. The support frame covers the electrical connector assembly and is affixed to the base plate. The circuit board is disposed on the support frame and electrically coupled to the electrical connector assembly. The shell body covers the support frame and circuit board and is affixed to the base plate. The power supply adapter can used with two-prong sockets that lack a ground slot, and provides grounding test function after being plugged into the two-prong socket, making it safe and convenient to use.
Strap connector
A strap connector includes an insulating body, a conductive element, a locking member, a pressing block, and a strap connected with the pressing block. The locking member includes a main body portion and a locking elastic arm. The main body portion includes a top plate. The locking elastic arm extends from the top plate and is used for locking with a mating connector. The pressing block is slidable backwardly under the pulling of the strap, so that the pressing block presses the top plate downwardly, and then the locking elastic arm moves downwardly to realize unlocking. When the unlocking method disclosed in the present disclosure is performed, it is only necessary to ensure that the pressing block slides over the top plate, which improves the reliability of unlocking.
CONNECTOR CONNECTION STRUCTURE
To allow an electronic control unit to be replaced with good work efficiency and prevent foreign matter from entering a casing during maintenance work, the connector connection structure includes an internal connector positioned inside a casing, an external connector positioned outside the casing and an electronic control unit electrically connected between the external connector and the electronic control unit wherein the electronic control unit includes a main part that opposes an opening formed in the casing when the internal connector is connected thereto, and a first conductive connection portion and a second conductive connection portion provided on either end of the main part and configured to be connected to the internal connector and the external connector respectively, and a first seal member is provided on an outer periphery of the main part, the first seal member closing the opening when the external connector is not connected to the electronic control unit and the internal connector is connected to the electronic control unit.
