Electric device with electric connection means suitable for connecting it to an electric power source, comprising a supporting surface for a textile electrically conductive band and retention means for retaining the textile electrically conductive band on supporting surface. Electric connection means comprise piercing means for piercing the textile electrically conductive band which are suitable for conducting an electric current. Textile electrically conductive band is made of double weaving and comprises two mutually parallel electrically conductive guides extending along the band. Each of the electrically conductive guides is located between two layers of textile material of said double weaving.

Electrical connector assemblies mountable on a tire of a wheel of a vehicle are described. An electrical connector assembly may include one or more electrical conductors, a respective electrical conductor extending from an inside surface of the tire to an outside surface of the tire. Tire assemblies including at least partially embedded electrical connector assemblies and wheel assemblies including such tire assemblies are also described.

A connecting assembly for electrically connecting a ribbon cable in an aircraft. The assembly has a housing with a slot-shaped opening through which an end section of a ribbon cable can be inserted into a housing interior into a predetermined insertion position. The assembly has a first and a second engagement section which are arranged in the interior. The first engagement section is mounted such that it can be optionally moved between a first and a second position, such that by moving the first engagement section into its second position, the end section can be clamped tight optionally between the first second engagement sections and conductor tracks of the ribbon cable are then in contact with a corresponding number of electrical contacts provided on the first engagement section. In the second position, the first engagement section is releasably secured by a latching device.

A connector for receiving a ribbon cable is provided. The connector includes a housing with an open top, and a cable organizer configured to be positioned within an interior of the housing and the open top and to receive the ribbon cable. The cable organizer includes a surface with a first cable grab hook adjacent a first end thereof, configured to receive a first portion of the ribbon cable via a snap-fit engagement. The connector also includes cover configured to selectively cover the open top of the housing to enclose the cable organizer within the interior of the housing. The cover includes a notch extending therethrough, sized to receive an upper detent of the cable organizer so that the upper detent extends through the notch and remains viewable when the cover encloses the cable organizer within the interior of the housing.

For the miniaturization of an investigation instrument (1), which includes a sensor (3), which is arranged in the interior of a long shaft (2) and is electrically contact-connected by a connection (8), it is provided that a flexible bending section (10) is configured on the connection (8), and is thus connected with a contact-connection section (9), which is contact-connected with contacts (4) of the sensor (3) on the reverse side such that, firstly, the entire connection (8) is arranged in the shadow of the image sensor (3) and, secondly, the bending section (10) originates from the contact-connection section (9) within a field (5) which is subtended by the reverse-side contacts (4) of the sensor (3).

Described embodiments provide a flat conductive fluid sensor cable capable of manufacture in long lengths comprising a flexible substrate, two or more flat conductors, and a fluid-permeable cover material arranged to allow a conductive fluid to form an electrically conductive path between the two or more conductors when conductive fluid contacts the conductive fluid sensor cable.

A cable connection structure includes a cable, a sheet-like wiring member, and a cable junction connector. The cable junction connector includes a first fitting and a second fitting. A connection portion of the first fitting and a connection portion of the second fitting interlock with each other in a state in which a part of a conductor formed on the sheet-like wiring member is sandwiched between a plate portion of the first fitting and a plate portion of the second fitting. The first fitting has an insulation-displacement contact which includes an open-ended slot. The cable is forced into the open-ended slot. A direction in which the cable is forced into the open-ended slot is perpendicular to a direction in which the cable extends and is parallel to a direction in which the part of the conductor is sandwiched between the plate portion of the first fitting and the plate portion of the second fitting.

[Problem] To provide a connector with improved reliability of electrical connection between a cable and a mating connector. [Resolution Means] A plurality of electrical contact terminals is provided on one side in a length direction and is provided with a first contact portion that is inserted into a support member and can contact a cable supported by this support member and a second contact portion that is provided on another side in the length direction and can contact terminal portions of a mating connector. A base member is provided with a bulkhead portion formed between a first receiving portion and a second receiving portion and a protruding wall portion protruding to the other side in the length direction from the bulkhead portion toward the second receiving portion. A plurality of channel portions that penetrates in the length direction and can receive the terminal portions of the mating connector is formed in the protruding wall portion and the bulkhead portion, the plurality of channel portions is formed so as to be separated from each other in a width direction orthogonal to the length direction, and the second contact portion of the plurality of electrical contact terminals is housed in the plurality of channel portions.

A connector for an electrical cable comprising a base part and a pressure applying cap, said base part comprising a seat for receiving the electrical cable, the base part comprising a pair of lateral recesses for slidably receiving a pair of lateral projections on the pressure applying cap, each of the lateral recesses extending longitudinally along the base part at an angle with respect to the seat such that a region proximal a first end of the base is at a height H.sub.1 from the seat, and a region of the recess distal the first end of the base part is at a height H.sub.2, wherein, the height H.sub.2 is less than the height H.sub.1, and wherein the pressure applying cap is slidable with respect to the base part such that the force applied to the cable by the cap and the base part increases as the cap slides within the base part.
