Electrical connector with cure-in-place resin
11196191 · 2021-12-07 ·

The electrical connector with cure-in-place resin is a twist-on wire connector with integrated resin injection, the resin curing around the enclosed conductors. The resulting connection is permanent, maintaining connectivity and excluding water. At the tip of the body, a sliding cartridge holds a single or multi-part resin within one or more sealed chambers. After the conductors are introduced into the body, and the connector tightened into place, the sliding cartridge is pressed into the body. The sliding causes the cartridge to compress against a piercing tip, causing resin to pass into the body of the connector, curing around the conductors.

Insulator for a cable end

The disclosure provides an insulator for an end of a cable, the insulator having a longitudinal body in which a central channel is provided, the insulator including a connector system arranged in the central channel, the system comprising a connection pin for receiving an end segment of the cable, the pin being shaped so as to present an inside surface that is serrated.
