| 20150064957 | QUICK SELF-LOCKING THREAD COUPLING INTERFACE CONNECTOR MECHANISM - A quick self-locking thread coupling connector interface with an inner contact inside the insulator, the insulator inside the outer contact, the coupling nut has at least one convex tooth and a first protruding part on the inner side, the elastic claw has slots corresponding to the convex teeth, a second protruding part and thread are provided on the outer side and the inner side of the elastic claw. The outer contact and the cable connector body are connected fixedly, the elastic claw surrounds rotatably outside the outer contact and is limited axially at the left end by the outer contact. The push nut surrounds the cable connector body and is limited axially, the elastic component is located between the elastic claw, the push nut, and props against the elastic claw and the push nut. The coupling nut surrounds the elastic claw and is connected fixedly with the push nut. | 03-05-2015 |
| 20150111411 | ELECTRICAL OUTLET SAFETY DEVICE - Electrical outlet safety devices are adapted for positionally capturing a plug head associated with an appliance cord relative to a receptacle of the outlet. The safety device includes a body plate having front and rear sides and opposed lateral edges, the body plate being adapted for removable connection relative to a cover plate associated with the electrical outlet. At least one elongate open-ended blind channel extends from one toward another of the opposed lateral edges. The channel thus defines an opposed pair of parallel edges to sandwich the plug head associated with the electrical appliance between the body plate and the cover plate of the electrical outlet, whereby the plug head is positionally captured relative to the receptacle. | 04-23-2015 |

| 20150349459 | INTERFACE CONNECTOR - A connector system includes an interface connector having a housing having a main body holding a contact array therein. The housing extends between a front end and a back end along a mating axis. The housing includes a cavity therein open to the front end and open to the back end. The cavity is situated proximate to a side of the housing. The cavity has a receiving channel open to the side of the housing. The receiving channel has mounting shoulders at least partially extending therein. The interface connector also includes a fastener having a retention surface. The fastener is configured to be side-loaded into the receiving channel through the side of the housing. The mounting shoulders engage the fastener within the cavity to limit transaxial movement of the fastener along the mating axis. | 12-03-2015 |
