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.
Abstract:
An electrical connector comprises a contact element capable of being coupled to a support element on which a wire is wound and a flexible sleeve mounted around the contact element to retain the contact element on the support element. The contact element has an inoperative undeformed position in which flexible walls of the contact element are outwardly divergent from one another and, when the contact element is fitted over the support element in the inoperative undeformed position, a cutting element of the contact element remains at a distance from the wire. The flexible sleeve is movable into a final operative position in which the flexible sleeve pushes the flexible walls toward an inwardly inclined position in which the cutting element cuts into the insulating material of the wire and forms an electrical connection with the wire.
Abstract:
A connector housing adapted to receive a contact comprises a first latch disposed on a top surface of the housing and having a first pressing part and a first extension portion formed on the first pressing part and a second latch disposed on the top surface of the housing and having a second pressing part and a second extension portion formed on the second pressing part. The first latch and the second latch are disposed side by side on the top surface and are adapted to lock to a case of a mating connector. The first latch and the second latch are unlocked by pressing down the first pressing part and the second pressing part. The first extension portion and the second extension portion are disposed adjacent to each other.

Abstract:
An electrical connector having a housing with a mating face and a wire-receiving face. Terminal-receiving cavities extend from the mating face toward the wire-receiving face. A receiving cavity extends from the wire-receiving face to an end wall provided at an end of the terminal-receiving cavities. The receiving cavity has a first section provided proximate the wire-receiving face and a second section provided proximate the end wall at the end of the terminal-receiving cavities. A transition wall is provided between the first section and the second section. A rear cover member is provided proximate the wire-receiving face. The receiving cavity is configured to receive a gang sealing member in the first section or individual wire sealing members in the second section to form a seal between the housing and the respective gang sealing member or the individual wire sealing members.

Abstract:
An electrical connector comprises a contact-carrying body having a plurality of electrical terminals, a slide member slidably mounted within the contact-carrying body and having a rack, an upper body mounted to the contact-carrying body, and a lever pivotally mounted on the upper body. The lever has a toothed wheel engaging the rack; movement of the lever between an inoperative position and an operative position moves the slide member between a retracted position and an advanced position. The lever has arms and a handle. Each arm of the lever has a telescoping structure including a first arm portion and a second arm portion slidably mounted to the first arm portion and connected to the handle. A movable portion including the second arm portion of each arm and the handle is movable with respect to each of the first arm portions between an elongated lever position and a shortened lever position.

Abstract:
A connector for connecting to a magnetic coil wound onto a support is disclosed. The connector comprises a first resilient body formed of a conductive material and having a plurality of cutters disposed on a plurality of inner walls of the first resilient body. The first resilient body is inserted onto the support and held in an open position during insertion. The first resilient body is biased into a closed position. In the closed position, the plurality of cutters cut an insulating layer on the magnetic coil and the first resilient body retains the magnetic coil on the support while electrically connecting the magnetic coil and the support.
