An electrical connector includes a housing with a housing body and a cover mount. The housing has a cable cavity that extends through the cover mount along a connector axis. The electrical connector includes a first cover. The first cover is located on the first side of the connector axis. A second cover is located on a second side of the connector axis. The first cover engages the second cover to retain the covers in their relative positions. The covers also engage the cover mount to retain their position relative to the housing.

A self-aligning mechanical mount and electrical connection system for an electronic module comprises a mechanical mount assembly configured to be integrated into or attached to a base frame and defining a mount connection position assurance (CPA) feature for self-aligning and securing of the electronic module therein, and an electrical connection assembly configured to be integrated into or attached to the mechanical mount assembly and comprising a modular electrical connector (i) being electrically connected to an electrical backbone wire cable and (ii) defining a connector CPA feature for self-aligning the modular electrical connector with a corresponding electrical connector integrated into or attached to the electronic module when the electronic module is secured in the mechanical mount assembly.

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, a pair of contacts accommodated in the insulative housing and a temperature sensing element electrically connected with the contacts. The insulative housing defines a base portion and a receiving portion extending forwards from the base portion, the receiving portion has a cavity opening towards one side thereof. Each contact defines a retaining portion held in the base portion, a contacting arm provided at one end of the retaining portion and protruding into the cavity, and a mating arm provided at the opposite end of the retaining portion. The temperature sensing element is at least partially received in the cavity and connecting with the contacting arm of the contact in the cavity.

A pull strap connector includes an insulating housing, a number of conductive terminals, a movable element, an elastic member, and a pull strap. The insulating housing includes a main body and a tongue plate. The main body includes a first end wall and a second end wall. The movable element includes at least one first locking protrusion protruding forwardly from the first end wall for engaging with a first locking hole of a mating connector. The movable element includes at least one ejector rod. The movable element includes at least one second locking protrusion on a rear end of the ejector rod. The second locking protrusion protrudes forwardly towards the second end wall for engaging with a second locking hole of the mating connector. The pull strap is configured to drive the movable element to overcome the elastic member so that the movable element moves along a front-back direction.

In a housing of a connector, there is formed an opening to be fitted with a protruding portion formed on a flat cable in a state in which a terminal section of the flat cable is electrically connected with contactors of a contact portion in an opening space.

An electrical connector assembly includes an electrically conductive structure having a flat flexible conductor with a plurality of end portions. Each of the plurality of end portions includes a plurality of electrically conductive traces. A plurality of wire contact wedges respectively support the plurality of end portions of the electrically conductive structure. A connector housing supports the plurality of wire contact wedges and the electrically conductive structure.

Cowlings described herein for board-to-board connectors can provide high stiffness, low weight, and low total cost. Such cowlings can provide ribs with increased thickness for targeted stiffness to resist bowing in a given direction. The layers of the cowlings can include carbon fiber extending in directions parallel to the ribs in some layers and transverse to the ribs in other layers. The layers can be formed together within a mold tool that shapes the fibers into the ribs.

A connector includes a housing having a contact receiving passageway extending through a mating end of the housing in a longitudinal direction and a contact disposed in the contact receiving passageway. The housing has a window extending through a wall of the housing in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The contact has a mating section disposed at the mating end and a contact section extending from the mating section. An exposed portion of the contact section is exposed to an area exterior of the housing through the window.

Disclosed is a flat cable with an improved function of preventing a short phenomenon that may occur when the flat cable is incorrectly inserted into a connector. The flat cable according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is a flat cable extending straight in a direction and having a front end that is inserted and connected to an external connector, and includes a plurality of conductors extending straight along a lengthwise direction of the flat cable, spaced apart a predetermined distance in a widthwise direction of the flat cable, and a cable body made of an insulating material, and extending straight along the lengthwise direction of the flat cable, wherein the conductors are mounted on at least one surface.

An exemplary embodiment provides a conductive connecting member, and a display device including the same, that includes a flexible elongated body and terminals formed at opposite ends of the body to be electrically connected to the body, wherein the body may include terminal areas in which the terminals are formed and a central area disposed between the terminal areas, and wherein two or more recess portions may be formed in edges of the body within the central area of the body.
