Abstract: A connector that is configured to be inserted within a cavity of a shroud defined by a mating connector along a longitudinal axis, including a connector body which defines a first resilient member and a first wedge member that is configured to urge the first resilient member into compressive contact with the shroud of the mating connector along a vertical or longitudinal axis. The connector may include a plurality of pairs of resilient members and wedge members to provide compressive contact along more than one axis. The wedge members may be incorporated into a connector position assurance device (CPA).

Abstract: An electrical connector assembly comprising a wire attached to a terminal and a connector body. The terminal defines a pair of terminal wings protruding from opposite side surfaces of the terminal. A cavity within the connector body is configured to receive the terminal. Side walls of the cavity define terminal guides that have guide rails and a guide slots beneath the guide rails. As the terminal is pushed into the cavity, the guide rails urge the terminal wings toward a top wall of the cavity until the terminal wings reach an end of the guide rails. The terminal wings then enter open ends of the guide slots as the wire is pulled cavity and the terminal wings traverse the guide slots until the terminal wings engage closed ends of the guide slots and/or a terminal lock tab engages a lock surface within the cavity, thereby preventing the terminal from being inadvertently withdrawn from the cavity.

Abstract: An electrical connector including a connector body that defines a terminal cavity within the connector body and an electrical terminal at least partially disposed within the terminal cavity. A first cavity wall within the terminal cavity defines a longitudinally oriented wedge feature. A biasing feature within the terminal cavity is configured to urge the wedge feature into intimate contact with surfaces of the terminal, such as those defined by a longitudinally oriented slot, thereby limiting a freedom of motion of the terminal within the terminal cavity. The wedge feature may be defined by the biasing feature or it may be defined by another cavity wall opposite the biasing feature within the terminal cavity.

Abstract: An electrical connector having one or more pairs of opposing contact arms extending from a body portion and configured to receive a mating connector. A spring clamp member is positioned over the opposing contact arms to increase a compressive force of the contact arms on the mating connector. The contact arms include stabilizing features to limit lateral, longitudinal, and/or rotational movement of the spring clamp member relative to the contact arms. The contact arms may be formed of a material having a high electrical connectivity and the spring clamp member may be formed of a different material having a higher relaxation temperature than the contact arm material. The mating connector may include be a male blade type terminal.

Abstract: An electrical connector configured to retain an electrical terminal including a terminal lock nib that projects inward into a terminal cavity from a first cavity wall for retaining the electrical terminal in the connector body and a flexible cantilever beam that projects axially into the terminal cavity from a fixed end of the cantilever beam. The cantilever beam is located opposite the terminal lock nib and is configured to push the terminal against a second cavity wall and into retaining engagement with the terminal lock nib. The connector also includes a support ridge that projects into the terminal cavity and is configured to contact and restrict movement of a free end of the cantilever beam during insertion of the terminal into the terminal cavity. The terminal has a laterally spaced lock surface engageable with the lock nib and is configured to prevent withdrawal of the terminal from the cavity.
