Abstract: An electric charging system includes an automatic connection device (ACD) outside a chargeable device. The ACD is electrically coupled to an energy source and includes a plug head electrically and mechanically connectable to the chargeable device and a first mechanism that positions the plug head at an inlet. The head includes a plug head connector with electrically conductive pins and a plug head lock with a first shape. The inlet includes electrically conductive sockets complementary to the electrically conductive pins; a plug head coupler including a shape that is complementary to the first shape and mechanically couples with the plug head via the plug head lock; and a second mechanism that mechanically and electrically couples the pins to the sockets. The second mechanism can produce a force greater than the first mechanism, and the first mechanism moves with greater translational and rotational precision than the second mechanism.

Abstract: A charging connector is provided. The charging connector includes a body having a first body end and a second body end. The charging connector also includes a cable connected to the first body end. The cable houses at least one conductor. The charging connector also includes at least one contact positioned at the second body end and electrically coupled to the at least one conductor. The charging connector also includes a mating interface connected to the second body end. The mating interface has a shroud and at least one contact dome that encloses the at least one contact. The at least one contact dome is at least partially formed of a first material having a first flammability resistance, and the shroud is at least partially formed of a second material having a second flammability resistance. The first flammability resistance is higher than the second flammability resistance.
