Disclosed is a connector including an outer housing having a tube shape, an inner housing coupled to the inside of the outer housing, the inner housing including a rear wall and a terminal cover formed to extend from the rear wall in a longitudinal direction of the outer housing, and a terminal of a plate shape seated on and coupled to the terminal cover, wherein the terminal cover is provided to cover edges of the terminal of the plate shape and to expose a side surface of the terminal. By this structure, a finger is structurally prevented from coming into contact with the terminal of the connector, and because there are no additional components, a simplification of the structure and a reduction in cost are achieved.

A circuit arrangement (1), in particular for an electrically driven motor vehicle, has at least one bus bar (5) which is connected electrically to a supplier (2) and which is connected to a first consumer (3) at a first transfer point (6) and to a second consumer (4) at a second transfer point (7). Both the first and the second transfer point (6, 7) are formed as flexible contact points.

Example implementations relate to an electronic port of an electronic device, having a locking assembly to secure an electronic plug within the electronic device. The electronic port includes a receptacle, and the locking assembly including a rocker switch, a bracket, and an elastic arm. The receptacle is releasably connectable to a connector of the electronic plug. The rocker switch is pivotably connected to an enclosure of the electronic device. The bracket extends from the rocker switch, and disposed around a first end portion of the receptacle. The elastic arm includes a locking tab engaged with the bracket, and a seating tab seated on a second end portion of the receptacle. Where, in relaxed state of the elastic arm, lock features of the locking tab protrudes into the receptacle, and where the elastic arm is deformable from relaxed state to biased state to pull the lock features out of the receptacle.

A housing (10) includes a plurality of cavities (14), a first lock receiving portion (21) arranged to correspond to one cavity (14) and a second lock receiving portion (22) arranged to correspond to another cavity (14). A retainer (60) is arranged in the housing (10) to restrict terminal fittings (50) from coming out from the cavities (14). The retainer (60) includes a deflectable and deformable deflecting piece (71). The deflecting piece (71) includes a first locking portion (73) for locking the first lock receiving portion (21), a second locking portion (74) for locking the second lock receiving portion (22) and a slit (72) arranged between the first locking portion (73) and the second locking portion (74). The slit (72) is open in a separating direction of the retainer (60) from the housing (10).

Provided is a male connector capable of easily engaging with a female connector. A male connector 10 includes a hood portion 13 with a cylindrical shape that is fit into, from a projecting end 13A side, an engagement cylindrical portion 23 formed as an opening of a female connector 20, wherein the hood portion 13 is provided with the at least one guide projection portion 31 projecting forward beyond the projecting end 13A with an annular shape.

In order to achieve impedance matching, a connector (A) is provided with: a housing (10) having terminal receiving chambers (11) disposed in two rows; two short-circuit members (30) which are attached to a plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in one row and a plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in the other row, and which constitute a differential pair; a plurality of terminal fixtures (40) which are separately fixedly attached to a main line (51) constituting the differential pair and a sub-line (52) constituting the differential pair, and which are inserted into the terminal receiving chambers (11) and are thereby connected to the short-circuit members (30); and a plurality of lances (13) formed on the housing (10) to prevent removal of the terminal fixtures (40) inserted into the terminal receiving chambers (11). The lances (13) are only provided in regions different from a region sandwiched between the plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in one row and the plurality of terminal receiving chambers (11) arrayed in the other row.

A connector includes a housing having a latch and a terminal mounted in the housing. The terminal has a locking hole with a locking hole front portion in a terminal insertion direction along which the terminal is inserted into the housing and a locking hole rear portion in the terminal insertion direction. A size of the locking hole front portion is larger than a size of the locking hole rear portion. The latch elastically protrudes into the locking hole to lock the terminal in the housing. The latch has a latch front portion in the terminal insertion direction and a latch rear portion in the terminal insertion direction. A size of the latch front portion is larger than a size of the latch rear portion. The size of the latch rear portion is smaller than the size of the locking hole front portion.

A terminal fitting 13 includes a tubular portion 30, an elastic contact portion 33, and an extended portion 35. The tubular portion 30 extends in a front-rear direction and has an open front surface. The elastic contact portion 33 is disposed in the tubular portion 30, extends in a front-rear direction, and has a rear end directly or indirectly connected to the tubular portion 30 and a front end that is a free end. The extended portion 35 extends from the tubular portion 30 and opposes the elastic contact portion 33 in a direction in which the elastic contact portion 33 bends. The extended portion 35 is disposed at a position exposed on a front surface side of the tubular portion 30.

An electrical connector for connection to a complementary mating connector includes a housing having at least one socket and at least one contact assembly which is disposed at least partially within the socket. A fastening element secures the contact assembly within the socket. A secondary retention means is movable between a pre-latched position and a final latched position, and, in the final latched position, prevents the fastening element from releasing securement of the contact assembly in the socket. The housing has a fastening groove extending along the socket at least along a portion of its length for securing the secondary retention means. In the final latched position, the secondary retention means engages by at least one latching element in the fastening groove.
