An electrical plug connector has a housing, in which at least one insertion opening and at least one guide for a complementary plug connector with at least one electrical contact pin are arranged. At least one contact element that is elastically deflectable out of the path of the contact pin is mounted in the housing and at least partially protrudes into the insertion opening when the complementary plug connector is absent. The lateral edge of the contact element facing the contact pin, in its front section, encloses an acute angle with the path of the contact pin during the insertion when viewed in the direction of the deflection of the contact element. When the cable plug connector is fully inserted, a flat contact section of the contact element, adjoining the lateral edge, in the transverse direction abuts in contact with the contact pin.

A safety adapter assembly includes a first electrical connector, a second electrical connector, a connector body, and a safety sleeve. The connector body is structured to couple the first electrical connector to the second electrical connector. The safety sleeve is substantially surrounding the connector body and configured to move relative to the connector body to selectively allow user access to the first electrical connector while substantially blocking user access to the second electrical connector, or to allow user access to the second electrical connector while substantially blocking user access to the first electrical connector.

A male and female power terminal assembly including a male terminal having a male contact portion including an outer contact surface and an inner surface, and a female terminal having a female contact portion including a sleeve and a finger made of an electrically conductive material. The outer contact surface is electrically connected to an inner surface of the sleeve. Further, the male terminal includes a connecting member made of an electrically conductive material which is placed inside a cylindrical hollow portion of the male terminal, and which interconnects the finger with the inner surface.

A terminal includes a top wall, a side wall, and a curved part connected between the top wall and the side wall. A notch is formed on the curved part. The notch reduces a bending force for forming the curved part and prevent cracks from being generated in the curved part during forming the curved part.

A tubular high current female terminal for mating with a male terminal having an outer terminal, and at least one core terminal. The outer terminal includes at least a mating portion and a termination portion. The core terminal includes a plurality of spring contacts, and preferably, latches for attaching thereof on an elongated opening of the outer terminal. The outer terminal is a seamless preformed tube that extends from the mating portion integrally extending to the termination portion as a single piece. A plurality of tubular high current female terminals may be joined together at termination portions thereof. Also, the tubular high current female terminal may have mating portions at opposing ends thereof, such that the male terminals respectively connected thereto extend at any desired angle. Furthermore, the mating portion may be a cylindric tube for mating with a cylindric male terminal, while the termination portion is attachable to an electrical cable.

A terminal that is to be coupled to a mate terminal. The terminal includes a tubular portion and a spring tab. The mate terminal is to be inserted in the tubular portion and the spring tab is within the tubular portion, and includes a spring-side wall, connection wall, a first side wall that is continuous from the connection wall and the spring-side wall, a second side wall that is continuous from the spring-side wall, and an opening limiter portion. The spring tab presses the mate terminal, which is inserted in the tubular portion, from the spring-side wall toward the connection wall. The tubular portion includes a connection portion that connects the spring tab and connection wall. The tubular portion includes the opening limiter portion that contacts the connection portion from an opposite direction from a pressing direction, in which the spring tab presses the mate terminal, toward the connection wall.

Provided is a connector assembly for use in an implantable medical device. The connector assembly for use in an implantable medical device includes an insulating sealed housing and at least one conductive element. The sealed housing defines at least one connecting hole along an axial direction of the sealed housing, a hole wall of each of the at least one connecting hole defines at least one circumferential mounting groove, and the at least one circumferential mounting groove is arranged along an axial direction of the at least one connecting hole. The at least one conductive element is disposed in a corresponding one of the at least one circumferential mounting groove and is drawn out to an outside of the sealed housing through a respective electrical contact element.

A contact element assembly for a plug connector part connectable to a mating plug connector part includes: a contact element that has a body and a plurality of contact lamellae that are elastically movable at the contact body and that together form a plug opening and can be brought into contact with a mating contact element of the mating plug connector part that is pluggable into the plug opening in an electrically contacting manner; and a sensor device that has a sensor element that is arranged in relation to the contact lamellae such that in an operational state of the contact lamellae the sensor element is not in electrical contact with the contact lamellae, but that come into electrical contact with the at least one of the contact lamellae upon an exceptional deformation on at least one of the contact lamellae. The sensor element is connected to an evaluation device.

A charging connector for an electrical vehicle has a connector base, a tubular first conductive terminal mounted in the connector base, an insulating isolation member mounted in the first conductive terminal, and a second conductive terminal mounted in a center of the isolation member and coaxially disposed in and electrically isolated from the first conductive terminal. The isolation member has at least one annular groove recessed in an upper surface of the isolation member, extending downwardly, and coaxially surrounding the second conductive terminal. A creepage distance between the first conductive terminal and the second conductive terminal is increased and a surface area for heat dissipation is increased to meet safety specifications.

A charging socket for a power supply arrangement for supplying a motor vehicle with electrical energy via a conductive plug connection has at least one electrical mating contact for conductively contacting a contact of a charging station. The electrical mating contact is displaceably mounted with respect to a central longitudinal axis of the charging socket in the radial direction between a first mating contact position and a second mating contact position different from the first mating contact position, wherein the charging socket has an adjusting ring which is mounted rotatably about the central longitudinal axis and has at least one adjustment ramp which, in a first angular position of the adjusting ring, permits a displacement of the electrical mating contact into the first mating contact position and, in a second angular position of the adjusting ring, pushes the electrical mating contact into the second mating contact position. A power supply arrangement and a method for operating a charging socket are also provided.
