摘要： A connector assembly including a first connector having female terminals which are short-circuited through a short-circuiting terminal while the first connector is not connected to a second one. When the second connector is plugged into the first connector, an insulating piece of the second connector breaks the short-circuit connection between the female terminals. The short-circuiting terminal has contact portions. At least one of the short-circuiting terminal contact portions has a side extension. The second connector has a rib adapted to press the contact portions to form a gap between the short-circuiting terminals and the female terminals. The insulating piece is inserted between the gap thus formed, so that it encounters practically no resistance. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the thickness of the insulating piece and thus to improve the long-term reliability of the connector assembly.

摘要翻译： 一种连接器组件，包括具有阴端子的第一连接器，所述阴端子通过短路端子短路，同时第一连接器未连接到第二连接器。 当第二连接器插入第一连接器时，第二连接器的绝缘件破坏阴端子之间的短路连接。 短路端子具有接触部分。 短路端子接触部中的至少一个具有侧向延伸。 第二连接器具有适于按压接触部分以在短路端子和阴端子之间形成间隙的肋。 绝缘片插入在这样形成的间隙之间，使得它几乎没有抵抗。 因此，可以减小绝缘件的厚度，从而提高连接器组件的长期可靠性。
