Abstract:
An ignition coil for an ignition system of an internal combustion engine includes a primary winding connected, by an electrical connection, to a generator, and a secondary winding connected to a spark plug and including a plurality of turns of capillary wire covered with an insulating layer and wound on an electrically insulating support. The support includes a receiving seat in which there is inserted a terminal to which an end portion of the capillary wire is anchored. A connector includes an elastic clip contact element that is fitted on the terminal and is provided with a cutting element to cut the insulating layer of the capillary wire. A stop device prevents the elastic clip contact element from closing beyond a determined amount or entity. An abutment body abuts on the terminal to establish the electrical connection between the capillary wire and the terminal.
Abstract:
An electrical connector includes a connector body, the connector body having a plurality of seats for a plurality of terminal contacts. The electrical connector also includes at least one sealing element received in the connector body in a plane transverse to conductors associated with the plurality of terminal contacts, so as to provide a seal around the conductors. The connector body is provided with a guide passage for slidingly mounting a sealing layer within the connector body, by moving the sealing layer parallel to a plane thereof, in such a way that the sealing layer can be inserted into the connector body after the plurality of terminal contacts along with the respective conductors have been received in the connector body. The sealing layer engages slidingly around the conductors until a final mounting position is reached.
