The invention relates to an electric connector element including a housing receiving first and second contacts; a first locking device for the first contacts, which can move between a release position and a locking position for the first contacts; a second locking device for the second contacts, which can move between a release position and a locking position for the second contacts; also including means for preventing maneuvering of the second locking device when the first locking device is not in a locking position for the first contacts.
An electric connector has an insulating casing defining a number of cavities for housing respective electric terminals and having axes parallel to a first direction (A) in which the connector is connected to a complementary connector; a slide fitted to the casing to slide in a second direction (B) perpendicular to the first direction (A), and having camtype first constraint means for receiving second constraint means on said complementary connector to produce a relative coupling movement between the connectors in the first direction (A) when the slide translates in the second direction (B); and an operating lever rotating about an axis (C) perpendicular to the first and second direction (A, B), and activated selectively to translate the slide in the second direction (B); the lever is hinged to the slide at the aforementioned axis (C), and actuating means are provided to move the axis (C) and the slide in the second direction (B) when the lever is operated.
A connecting terminal has a rectangular tube-like connecting portion including a bottom plate, and a first side plate. A movable contact strip is secured to the bottom plate at a base portion. The movable contact strip is bent into a shape of a mountain. An apex of the mountain constitutes a contact portion. Prior to the formation of the connecting portion, the movable contact strip is folded over the bottom plate. An elongated strip portion of the bottom plate is cut and bent inwardly to form a reinforcing strip. A rear end of the movable contact strip is connected to the bottom plate. A free front end of the reinforcing strip is urged against a lower surface of the contact portion. At a front end of the connecting portion, a guide strip is formed by folding back a front end portion of the bottom plate.
The invention relates to a cable connector with a housing including a base extending along a longitudinal axis of the cable connector. The base includes a cable entry portion for accommodating a ferrule system of a cable and a further portion extending from said cable entry portion along said longitudinal axis. The further portion includes one or more mounting structures. The base also includes a housing part with one or more mounting elements adapted to cooperate with said mounting structures to mount the housing part to the base to complete said housing at said further portion. The mounting structures and mounting elements are structured such that said housing part is forced towards said base when said housing part is moved along said longitudinal axis from a mounting position to a mounted position. Accordingly a tight fitting and easily assembled cable connector is obtained.
A connector, being a connector where one portion of the housing protrudes, and where an electrical connection and mechanical fixation is achieved by the protruding portion being housed within a recessed portion of an opposing connector. The housing has a fixing portion for fixing to a board and a movable protruding portion. The protruding portion is supported by the fixing portion of the housing via contact portions. The protruding portion has stoppers for stopping the protruding portion by coming into contact with the contact portions when inserting the connector. The contact portions have stoppers for stopping the protruding portion by coming into contact with the housing when removing the connector.
