摘要:
A plastic frame 13 for electrical connectors has an open end 14. A closing plate 18 of plastic is connected to one side of the open end by means of a living hinge. A cover 24 for covering electrical wires is integrally formed on the upper side of the frame 13. During assembly, the closing plate 18 is opened and each connector 1 is inserted into the frame 13 by sliding protruding members 11 along guiding grooves 15. Then the closing plate 18 is closed and latched. The electrical wires coming out of the connector 1 are simultaneously collected together under the cover 24. For disassembly, the closing plate 18 can be unlatched and each connector pulled out one by one.

Male sub-connectors 3 are accommodated in apertures 2 formed in a male frame 1, and female sub-connectors 23 are accommodated in apertures 22 formed in a female frame 21. A guide wall 15, on the inside of which the female frame 21 fits closely, is provided around the entire periphery of the top surface of the male frame 1. The female frame 21 is temporarily assembled with hooks 56, which engage longitudinal grooves 57 in the guide wall 15. When a lever 40 is operated so as to draw the male and female frame together, the guide wall 15 ensures the connectors themselves are relieved of lateral loads. In an alternative embodiment a similar arrangement is provided between one pair of connectors tightly engaged in the respective frames.

A pair of connector housing may be temporarily engaged so as to facilitate efficient connection operation thereof. A lever 15 is pivotably attached to a side wall of the male connector housing 11. When a female connector housing 12 is inserted into the male connector housing 11, a cam receiving protrusion 17 of a cover 13 resiliently deforms lugs 15a of a lever 15 to be opened, so that the cam receiving portion may be advanced through a portion 23 into a cam groove 16. After such advancement, lugs 15a are returned to their original position by means of resilient deformation, so that the portion 23 is engaged with the cam receiving protrusion 17, so as to prevent dislodgement of the cam receiving protrusion. The thickness of the portion 23 of the cam groove is selected so as to prevent dislodgement of the cam receiving protrusion. A restricting protrusion 24 is protruded laterally from the cam receiving protrusion 17. The restricting protrusion serves to urge the lugs 15 downwardly, so as to maintain constant amount of engagement between the cam receiving protrusion 17 and the portion 23 of the cam groove. Another restricting protrusion 25 extending in a vertical direction may be provided in the side wall 1 of the male connector housing 11.
摘要:
A terminal fitting (10) has a rectangular tube (11) and a wire connecting portion (12) rearward of the rectangular tube (11). Two rib-like stabilizers (31F, 31R) project from the rectangular tube (11) by closely folding pieces extending from a side wall (19) of the rectangular tube (11). The stabilizers (31F, 31R ) are spaced apart in forward and backward directions. An entrance preventing portion (35) in the form of a single plate is formed between the two stabilizers (31F, 31R).
摘要:
A shielding shell (30) of a male housing (10M) and a shielding shell (30) of a female housing (10F) have the same shape, touching portions (35) of the shielding shells (30) are such that outer touching pieces (32) having contact points at the inner sides and inner touching pieces (31) having contact points at the outer sides are arranged in circumferential direction, and the inner touching pieces (31) of one shielding shell (30) and the outer touching pieces (32) of the other shielding shell (30) correspond to and come into contacting with each other in radial directions. Since the shielding shell (30) of the male housing (10M) and that of the female housing (10F) have the same shape, cost can be reduced.
摘要:
A front mask (70) can be held at a testing position located before a proper position with respect to a mounting direction of the front mask (70). At this testing position, parts of the front ends of connecting portions (28S) of smaller female terminals (26S) accommodated in smaller cavities (24S) located behind the corresponding smaller cavities (24S) with respect to the mounting direction are exposed in smaller terminal insertion openings (75S), and these smaller terminal insertion openings (75S) are used also as testing openings through which probes (80) for an electrical connection test are inserted. The front mask (70) also is formed with test openings (82) where parts of the front ends of the connecting portions (28S) of the smaller female terminals (26S) accommodated in the frontmost smaller cavities (24S) with respect to the mounting direction are exposed when the front mask (70) is at the testing position.
摘要:
A divided connector has a cover (70) that is mounted on a frame (10) in a direction orthogonal to an inserting direction of auxiliary housings (40) into the frame (10). Latches (71) on the inner surfaces of the cover (70) contact guide surfaces (42B) of an insufficiently inserted auxiliary housing (40) to push the auxiliary housing (40) to a proper position and doubly lock the auxiliary housing (40).
摘要:
A divided connector (10) has a housing main body (11) with main cavities (16) and main front walls (17) that define front limit positions for main terminal fittings (15) in the main cavities (16). The housing main body (11) also has an accommodating portion (12) with an accommodating front wall (13) that defines a front limit position for an auxiliary housing (30) in the accommodating portion (12). The auxiliary housing (30) has auxiliary cavities (32) with auxiliary front walls (33) that define front limit positions of auxiliary terminal fittings (31) in the auxiliary cavities (32). A sum of the thicknesses of auxiliary front walls (33) and the accommodating front wall (13) exceeds the thickness of main front walls (17). Thus, the auxiliary terminal fittings (31) are backward from the main-body terminal fittings (15) by this thickness difference and a peak connecting force is reduced.
摘要:
A moving side connector (30) has a housing (31) with a receptacle (32). Male terminal fittings (33) are mounted in the housing (31) and have tabs (33a) that project into the receptacle (32). A waiting side connector (20) has a mating housing (21) that can fit in the receptacle (32). Levers (38) are supported rotatably on the male housing (31). A cam pin (40) is provided at an end of each lever (38) and is supported slidably in a corresponding cam groove (47) of a frame (46). A moving plate (35) is mounted in the receptacle 32 for movement along a connection direction (CD). The moving plate (35) has positioning holes (42) for positioning the tabs (33a) and cam pins (44) that engage cam grooves (39) of the levers (38) together with cam pins (24) of the mating housing (21).
摘要:
A connector housing (10) has a terminal accommodating portion (11) with cavities (13) at upper and lower stages, and locks (21) project respectively into each cavity (13). Each lock (21) has a resiliently deformable arm (22) and a locking section (23) engageable with a female terminal fitting (30). A retainer (40) is mounted on the terminal accommodating portion (11) and has deformation restricting portions (44) that enter deformation spaces (24) for the locks (21) to prevent deformation of the locks (21). Each arm (22) has an engaging portion (29). Engaging portions (29B) at the lower stage engage a side wall (25A) of the cavity (13A) at the upper stage during the deformation of the lock (21B). Engaging portions (29A) at the upper stage engage a surrounding wall (41) of the retainer (40) during deformation of the lock (21A). Thus, the locks (21) cannot deform beyond their resiliency limit.
