Abstract: An electrical connector assembly includes a connector, a corresponding mating-connector, and a terminal-stabilizer. The a connector has a plurality of electrical-terminals. The connector also has an outer-surface that includes a plurality of retraction-fins. The mating-connector has a plurality of mating-electrical-terminals. The mating-connector is releasably connected to the connector along a mating-axis. The mating-connector includes a connector-shroud having side walls defining a shroud-cavity. The terminal-stabilizer is slideably disposed within the shroud-cavity and includes a plurality of retraction-locks that engage the plurality of retraction-fins on the connector. The terminal-stabilizer defines a plurality of terminal-apertures that slideably engage the plurality of mating-electrical-terminals. The terminal-stabilizer is moveable from a prestaged-position, when the connector and the mating-connector are in the unmated-position, to a seated-position, when the connector is moved to the mated-position. The connector retracts the terminal-stabilizer from the seated-position to the prestaged-position when the connector is moved from the mated-position to the unmated-position.

Abstract: An electrical connector assembly including a moveable terminal stabilizer is presented. The terminal stabilizer is moveable from a stabilizing position to a stowed position. In the stabilizing position terminal stabilizer is near the tips of the terminals and in the stowed position is near the base of the terminals. The tip of the terminal is received in an aperture defined by the terminal, whereby the terminal stabilizer protects the terminal from being bent away from the terminal axis by a force applied to the terminal in a direction substantially orthogonal to the terminal axis. The terminal stabilizer also includes an integral lock retainer that engages a terminal lock member when the terminal stabilizer is in the stowed position thereby inhibiting movement of the lock member and disengaging the lock member when the terminal stabilizer is in the stabilizing position thereby allowing movement of the lock member.

Abstract translation: 提出了一种包括可移动端子稳定器的电连接器组件。 终端稳定器可从稳定位置移动到收起位置。 在稳定位置，端子稳定器靠近端子的顶端，并且在收起位置靠近端子的底部。 端子的尖端容纳在由端子限定的孔中，由此端子稳定器通过在与端子轴线基本正交的方向上施加到端子的力而保护端子不被远离端子轴线弯曲。 端子稳定器还包括一体的锁定保持器，当端子稳定器处于收起位置时，该锁定保持器与端子锁定构件接合，从而当端子稳定器处于稳定位置时由此阻止锁定构件的移动并使锁定构件分离，从而允许 锁定成员。

Abstract: An electrical connector includes a mating connector in which a plurality of electrical terminals are disposed. The mating connector defines a connector shroud configured to receive a corresponding connector. The electrical connector also includes a terminal stabilizer defining a plurality of terminal apertures surrounding the electrical terminals disposed within the connector shroud. The terminal stabilizer is configured to move from a prestaged position to a seated position when the connector is inserted within the connector shroud and is further configured to move from the seated position to the prestaged position when the connector is removed from the connector shroud.
