Abstract: A guide member is provided for use with a multi-wire plug connector. It has an elongated body with multiple wire pathways extending through it in a torturous path so that wires inserted into one end of the guide member in a first orientation are twisted into a second orientation that is different than the first orientation. The guide member body is formed of two parts and one of the parts has ports for the injection of a settable compound, such as a hot melt adhesive to hold the guide member parts together as well as the wires in place within the guide member.

Abstract: A cable connector assembly is disclosed for use in connecting electronic devices together. The connector has a housing and a mating blade in the form of a paddle card to which wires of a cable are terminated. The connector housing supports a latching mechanism with an actuator that when selectively pulled delatches the latching mechanism from its engagement with the housing of an electronic device. The actuator has an elongated pull tab portion that has a rounded edge for at least three of its four sides. This rounded edge eliminates the sharp corners associated with rectangular or square cross sections of conventional pull tabs, thereby removing stress riser points and giving the pull tab greater resistance against tearing when subjected to torsional loading.

Abstract: A plug connector for engaging a housing on a circuit board is described. The housing includes a pair of engagement tabs that are bent inwardly of the housing at an angle thereto and these tabs engage openings formed in the body of the plug connector. The tabs rest in the openings and may be released by way of a delatching mechanism that is part of the plug connector. This mechanism includes a handle and two arms that extend lengthwise. The arms end in cam blocks that contact and lift the engagement ends out of the plug connector shell openings to unlatch the plug connector from the housing.

Abstract: A connector for connecting cables to a pin header has a connector body portion that incorporates a strain relief member applied to the cables as part of the connector body portion. The strain relief member includes a cable clamp having a series of grooves that are separated by intervening land portions. The grooves receive the cables and particularly space them. A stop is formed in the clamp to isolate the cable end. The leads of the cable are terminated to corresponding tail portions of contacts of the connector. These tail portions are maintained in the same plane to enhance the electrical performance of the connector. An insulative material is molded over the tail portions and the cable clamp to form a connector with a cable clamp formed integrally with the body of the connector.

Abstract: 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.
