A multifunctional high-voltage connector and a battery product are disclosed. The multifunctional high-voltage connector includes: a fuse, a socket, and a plug. The socket includes a base and a socket terminal. The plug includes a seat and a plug terminal. The base includes: a first main body portion; a first accommodating portion, protruding from the first main body portion; and a second accommodating portion, protruding from the first main body portion and provided to be spaced apart from the first accommodating portion. The fuse is accommodated in the first accommodating portion. At least a part of the socket terminal is accommodated in the second accommodating portion. The seat of the plug is inserted into the second accommodating portion of the base.

Flat surfaces out of two flat surfaces of each of flat electrical connection bodies of a relay bus bar and a bus bar of an electronic component are mating surfaces brought into contact with each other by a fixing structure. At least one of the flat electrical connection bodies of the relay bus bar and the bus bar applies a reaction force accompanying the elastic deformation to the other flat electrical connection body, to which the one flat electrical connection body is to be connected, in a state in which the flat electrical connection body of the bus bar at an accommodation completion position in a housing has not been connected to the relay bus bar. The housing includes a receiving portion receiving a force applied to the flat electrical connection body of the bus bar from the flat electrical connection body of the relay bus bar.

A connector configured to be fitted with a mating connector includes a main housing, a sub-housing supported on the main housing to be slidable in a fitting direction with respect to the main housing in which the connector is fitted with the mating connector, and an operating member pivotably and slidably supported on the main housing. The main housing moves closer to the mating connector when the operating member is pivoted from a first posture to a second posture. The sub-housing moves in the fitting direction when the operating member slides from the second posture in a direction different from the fitting direction. The sub-housing has an erroneous fitting prevention part abutting against the mating connector in a state of incomplete fitting of the connector with the mating connector.

A connector component is disclosed. The connector may include an electrically-conductive clamp element configured to clamp a contact element to a surface element. The surface element may be electrically-conductive and may be inserted into the clamp element using a recess in a lateral edge of the surface element to provide additional surface area for an electrical connection. The clamp element may be a lamella contact. The surface element may be at least one contact blade. The clamp element may include two laterally-spaced clamp elements. The connector component may also include a contact element that is inserted into the two clamp elements.

A connector for providing electronic communication with an electronic device is disclosed. The connector can comprise a substrate comprising layers of non-conductive material and conductive material. The connector can include an interface member mounted to the substrate and electrically connected with the conductor. A positive temperature coefficient (PTC) fuse can be embedded in the substrate and electrically connected with the conductor and the interface member. At least a portion of the PTC fuse can be disposed directly below the interface member.
