A mold for molding a body or cap for a connector. The mold comprises a mold body (1) and an axial core (2) which together define a mold cavity in the shape of the body or cap. The core has a sleeve (3) and an inner pin (4) each having complementary castellations (8, 10) which interdigitate in a first configuration. In the first configuration, the castellations (8, 10) are arranged such that respective recesses (11) are formed each bound by the proximal end of a first castellation (8) and the side walls of adjacent second castellations (10). Each recess has a shape to form a respective first portion of the body or cap. The sleeve (3) and inner pin (4) are axially movable to a second configuration in which the castellations (8, 10) are disengaged from one another. The inner pin (4) is rotatable to a third configuration in which the first castellations (8) can be axially withdrawn following a path occupied by the second castellations (10) in the first configuration.

A charging connection module for a vehicle includes a charging socket for electrical contacting with an external electricity source and a pot unit which constitutes a mounting for the charging socket and which is fastenable to an outer panel of the vehicle. The charging socket is integrated into the pot unit in an injection molded manner.

A mold assembly includes a first upper portion, a second upper portion, and a base removably coupled to each other. A method of manufacturing an electrical connector with the mold assembly includes preheating a resin, mixing the resin with a hardener, preheating the mold assembly, injecting the resin hardener mixture into the mold assembly, and curing the resin hardener mixture.

A method for producing a plug, and to a plug. It is provided, in particular, that a plug connector and three plug contact rings are arranged in a casting mold, wherein the plug connector extends along a longitudinal axis and has a contact portion and a fastening portion connected integrally to the contact portion, and wherein a plug housing is formed by introducing a casting material into the casting mold so that the fastening portion is surrounded form-fittingly by the casting material and the contact portion protrudes out from the plug housing at a first end of the plug housing in the direction of the longitudinal axis.

An electrical device includes an electrically conductive member, an overmold material disposed about a portion of the electrically conductive member and a membrane disposed between the overmold material and at least a portion of the electrically conductive member. The membrane has a compressibility greater that a compressibility of the overmold material such that at least a portion of relative thermal expansion between the electrically conductive member relative to the overmold material is absorbed by the membrane.

Disclosed are a new silicone cold-extrusion lamp belt and its manufacturing method. The manufacturing method includes the following steps. S10: Select a PCB and use the PCB as a substrate. S20: Set LED lamp bead spot-welding units arranged in an array formed on the substrate to obtain a target board. S30: Extrude a slurry which is formed by a food-grade silicone and coat the slurry on an outer surface of the target board to form a lamp skin. S40: Cut the target board into at least one lamp belt substrate. S50: Heat and bake the lamp belt substrate to obtain a lamp belt. This disclosure has the advantages of feasible design, low manufacturing cost, high resistance on cracking, wearing, yellowing, high/low temperature, good fire resistance, environmental friendly and harmless to human safety, high transparency, high light emitting efficiency of the lamp, and applicable for indoor/outdoor lamp belts.

The invention relates to a method for producing a radome, a flexible printed circuit board having a metallic structure being used. Said flexible printed circuit board is embossed and is back-molded with a thermoplastic material and electric contact elements are connected to the flexible printed circuit board. A connector skirt is placed on the contact elements prior to back-molding.

The present disclosure generally relates to a novel concept of forming an adapter for an automotive application to be used for connecting a breakout box in-between an electrical control unit (ECU) of a vehicle and an electrical wiring system comprised with the vehicle. The adapter is formed using a 3D printer based on a construction of an electrical connector design provided with the ECU. The present disclosure also relates to a corresponding system and a computer program product.

The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing connector, comprising steps of: Obtaining a terminal module comprising a terminal body and a plurality of terminals, wherein the terminal body comprises an interface part, a hollow area, and an electrical connecting part, the hollow area is disposed between the interface part and the electrical connecting part, the plurality of terminals is disposed on the terminal body, each terminal passes through the interface part, the hollow area, and the electrical connecting part. Assembling a housing on the terminal module, wherein the hollow area passed by the plurality of the terminals is exposed from the housing. Inject-molding a waterproof block into the hollow area, wherein the waterproof block encases the plurality of the terminals disposed in the hollow area, the waterproof block is disposed between the interface part and the electrical connecting part.
