439723000 | Insulating body with spaced, electrically interconnected, duplicate terminals or contacts | 9 |
20080293307 | Spring beam wafer connector - A multi-contact electrical connector wafer includes an insulating base and at least one bay on a first side of the base. A conductor is associated with the at least one bay and the conductor is adapted to contact a corresponding mating element. The wafer further includes a loading beam adapted to bias the first conductor toward the corresponding mating element upon deflection of the beam. A connector may be formed with a conductive component disposed in a connector housing defining a receptacle opening. The conductive component is arranged in the housing in a manner to allow the conductive component to move relative to the housing. As such, the connector can accommodate a mating connector of a first thickness or a mating connector of a second, different thickness. The connector may also be adapted to accommodate a mating connector that is inserted into the receptacle in a manner that is not collinear with respect to the receptacle. | 11-27-2008 |
20080293308 | Pivoting wafer connector - A multi-contact electrical connector wafer includes an insulating base and at least one bay on a first side of the base. A conductor is associated with the at least one bay and the conductor is adapted to contact a corresponding mating element. The wafer further includes a loading beam adapted to bias the first conductor toward the corresponding mating element upon deflection of the beam. A connector may be formed with a conductive component disposed in a connector housing defining a receptacle opening. The conductive component is arranged in the housing in a manner to allow the conductive component to move relative to the housing. As such, the connector can accommodate a mating connector of a first thickness or a mating connector of a second, different thickness. The connector may also be adapted to accommodate a mating connector that is inserted into the receptacle in a manner that is not collinear with respect to the receptacle. | 11-27-2008 |
20090017699 | In-line push-in wire connector - A push-in wire connector has enclosure made of left and right housings. Each housing has a wire entry port and a wire receptacle box aligned with the port of the other housing. The wire entry ports face in opposite directions. A terminal is mounted in the housing and includes a busbar which is tangentially mounted to both wire ports. A spring member has spring fingers for biasing inserted conductors into engagement with opposite sides of the busbar. | 01-15-2009 |
20120015564 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH IMPROVED BOARD LOCK AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLING THE SAME - An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, a plurality of terminals and a pair of board locks retained in the housing. The insulative housing defines a mating surface, a mounting surface opposite to the mating surface, a plurality of passageways penetrating through the mating surface and a pair of slots penetrating through the mounting face and a first side face of the insulative housing. The terminals are received in the passageways. The board locks are secured in the corresponding slots of the insulative housing. Each board lock includes a retention portion and a lock tail extending from the retention portion beyond the mounting face. The insulative housing further defines a pair of block portions unitarily protruding from the first side face adjacent to the corresponding slots, and each board lock includes a retaining portion abutting against the corresponding block portion on a face opposite to the mounting face. | 01-19-2012 |
20130231011 | PLUG CONNECTOR WITH IMPROVED CONSTRUCTION - A plug style connector has an outer connector housing with an internal passage which accommodates a cable assembly. A plurality of multi-wire cables extend through a wire organizer that arranges the cables in a preselected arrangement. Exposed free ends of the conductors of the wires are terminated to multiple circuit boards which are separated in a preselected spacing by a spacer member. The spacer member and wire organizer have flat opposing surfaces that define boundaries of a body portion formed by the application of a hot melt to the cables, the hot melt adheres to the wire organizer and the spacer to hold the cable wires and their associated circuit boards in place for correct insertion into the connector housing. | 09-05-2013 |
20140099836 | Power Terminal Block - A power terminal block that accommodates busbars with various lengths and terminal positions is provided. The power terminal block includes a pair of insulators and a busbar. Each insulator includes a base, a shelf, and an insulating partition. The shelf is coupled to the base and is configured with a busbar mounting stud. The insulating partition is coupled to the base and the shelf. The busbar is configured to attach to the busbar mounting stud in each insulator. The insulators are spaced apart at a predetermined distance to receive a busbar of any length. | 04-10-2014 |
20140187103 | System and Method for an Improved Fine Pitch Joint - Presented herein are an interconnect and method for forming the same, the method comprising forming an interconnect on a mounting surface of a mounting pad disposed on a first surface of a first substrate, the interconnect comprising a conductive material, optionally solder or metal, the interconnect avoiding the sides of the mounting pad. A molding compound is applied to the first surface of the first substrate and molded around the interconnect to covering at least a lower portion of the interconnect and a second substrate may be mounted on the interconnect. The interconnect may comprise an interconnect material disposed between a first and second substrate and a molding compound disposed on a surface of the first substrate, and exposing a portion of the interconnect. A sidewall of the interconnect material contacts the mounting pad at an angle less than about 30 degrees from a plane perpendicular to the first substrate. | 07-03-2014 |
20140322989 | CONNECTION STRUCTURE FOR A SCREW BLOCK - A connection structure for a screw block, wherein a screw member and a bus bar are disposed in one side of an insulative screw block body, a power supply circuit is screw-connected to the bus bar by the screw member, a terminal portion of the bus bar is housed in an internal space of the screw block body, a wire-equipped terminal for power supply distribution is housed in the internal space from another side of the screw block body, and the wire-equipped terminal and the terminal portion of the bus bar are connected to each other, is provided. | 10-30-2014 |
20150064985 | Push-in wire connector with collar - A wire connector having a collar surrounding a set of wire ports in a wire connector with the collar providing a collective shield between an environment external to the collar the collar but not between the set of wires within the collar. | 03-05-2015 |
