    摘要: A strain relief for an insulation displacement connector contains a cap section and a base section connected to the cap section at a pivot point. The cap section has at least one wire insertion channel and a first wall. The wire insertion channel has an entrance aperture which is in fluid communication with an exit aperture for passage therethrough in an insertion of an inserted wire. The exit aperture is contained in the first wall. The cap section is pivotally moveable between an open position which facilitates insertion of the wire into the cap section through the entrance aperture and out through the exit aperture, and a closed position. The base section has a side wall and a base hole or depression formed in the base section at the foot of the side wall. The base hole includes a wire stop portion at its bottom. The base hole is disposed such that passage of the inserted wire out through the exit aperture into the open portion of the base hole is limited by abutment against the wire stop portion at the bottom of the base hole. In this orientation, the wire is retained in the base hole at a first orientation which is substantially parallel to the insertion direction of the inserted wire. When the cap is moved into the closed position, the first wall of the cap section forces the wire into contact with the side wall so as to cause the wire to be bent and thus oriented at a wire bend angle in a second orientation. In this second orientation, the wire is restrained in the connector as a result of this forced bend and thereby is strain relieved.

    摘要: A terminal strip with an integrated strain relief mechanism is deployed in an insulation displacement connector that contains a cap section, a base section including at least one terminal strip, and a latch member. The cap section is movable between an open position and a closed position and has therein at least one terminal strip receiving portion and at least one wire insertion channel for holding a wire. The channel has an entrance aperture for entry of the wire. The open position facilitates entry of the wire into the channel. When the cap section is in the closed position, the terminal strip is contained within the cap in the terminal strip receiving portion. The terminal strip includes a first arm having a first arm recess and a second arm having an offset tab. The latch member is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position such that when the latch member is in the engaged position, it maintains the cap section in the closed position. When the cap is closed, the wire in the channel is forced upward by the offset tab of the terminal strip causing the wire to bend around the offset tab. This bend in the wire provides strain relief.

    摘要: A hinged mounting bracket and attachable ground bar used in conjunction with a telephone wire termination block. The mounting bracket is adapted to accept modular connectors in order to form any size connecting block. The hinged bracket consists of two pieces, a bracket base and a front flap which receives the modular connectors. In a preferred embodiment, the front flap is coupled to the base by a hinge which enables the bracket to rotate open so that rear terminals of the modular connectors may be easily accessed. The ground bar is attachable to the front or rear of the mounting bracket in order to provide a ground for gas tube circuit protectors that may be inserted into the modular connectors. The ability to secure the ground bar to the mounting bracket in a variety of orientations provides additional flexibility for all types of wiring schemes. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the ground bar couples to support posts on the mounting bracket utilizing a force fit insertion. A tab on the ground bar creates a bias against the support posts to retain the ground bar in a fixed position. Individual circuit protection modules are adapted to be received on the ground bar which establishes a positive seat connection.

    摘要: A surge protection cartridge adapted for use with a double-sided modular connector block system. The protector cartridge advantageously mounts in the front or rear of a connector module of the connector block in a variety of orientations in order to protect an entire row of terminations on the block. Two L-shaped brackets adapted to couple to a mounting bracket of the connector block form an internal ground bus within the protector cartridge. The brackets include a series of cantilever connecting clips which couple directly to the surge protection devices. Spring contacts having similar cantilever clips couple the remaining leads of the surge protection devices and the terminals of the connecting block which are to be protected. Each individual spring contacts is seated within an individual insulated well of the cartridge housing. The feature maintains a substantial insulation resistance between adjacent terminals of the housing and advantageously prevents shorting between adjacent terminal leads caused by the collection of moisture. A set of protrusions within the cartridge housing corresponding to the wells engage the spring contacts to force correct seating position. An exclusion feature attached to the cartridge housing ensures that only protection cartridges having a sufficient number of protection devices may be inserted within certain sized connector modules.

    摘要: Disclosed is a voltage and current protector device designed for connecting blocks with a high density of contacts. Thermal overload protection is provided through a special ground connector with one end mounted over the surge protector element rather than through the normal ground pin of the element. The ground connector at its other end is shaped into a detent for capturing the ground bar of the connecting block.
