摘要： The present invention provides a quick connector for establishing a snapping connection between a tubular male part (50) and a female part (40) of a fluid connection system. The connector has retaining means (10) adapted to be set within the mouth portion (41) of the female part (40) and having a resilient member (20) for snapping engagement with both a thickened portion (52) of the male part (50) and an annular groove (42) in the mouth portion (41) of the female part (40) when the resilient member (20), which is held by the retaining means (10) in an axially fixed position, is stretched in the radial direction due to the snapping engagement with the male part (50).

摘要： The present invention provides a quick connector made of plastics material for establishing a snapping connection between a tubular male part (50) and female part (40) of a fluid connection system. The connector has retaining means (10) adapted to be set within the mouth portion (41) of the female part (40) and having first and second flexing members (12, 22) for snapping engagement with the male part (50) and the female part (40), respectively. The first and second flexing members (12, 22) are provided at circumferentially spaced portions of the retaining means (10) so that the overall axial dimensioning of the retaining means (10) is reduced.

摘要： The present invention provides a quick connector made of plastics material for establishing a snapping connection between a tubular male part (50) and a female part (40; 40A) of a fluid connection system. The connector has retaining means (10) adapted to be set within the mouth portion (41; 41A) of the female part (40; 40A) and having first and second flexing members (11, 12) for snapping engagement with the male part (50) and the female part (40; 40A), respectively. Each pair of circumferentially adjacent first and second flexing members (11, 12) is cross-connected by a transversal web portion (13) having a main longitudinal axis (L) which extends directly from the first flexing member (11) to the second flexing member (12).

摘要： A connector has an outer surface for engagement by a hose, an inner through-bore (13) for receiving a pipe nipple to be connected to the hose, and a sealing O-ring (12) for sealing the hose to the pipe nipple. Up to the final assembly of the connector, a plug (15) is placed in the through-bore (13) to hold the parts of the connector together and protect its interior against the entry of dirt. The plug (15) has a shaft (16) to be inserted into the through-bore (13) and an end disc (17) for closing an end of the through-bore (13). A plurality of connectors may be linked together to form a belt-type arrangement for handling in an automatic assembly line.

摘要： The invention relates to a High current terminal assembly including a conductor terminal (12), said conductor terminal (12) being operatively arranged to be mounted in an orifice (10a) in a housing wall (10), and a mounting module (14a; 14b) for mounting the conductor terminal (12) to the housing wall (10), said mounting module (14a; 14b) including:



a collar structure (16) configured to abut to a first side of said housing wall (10) surrounding said orifice (10a), and
an insertion part (18) configured to be inserted into the orifice (10a) of the housing wall (10), wherein a remote end of the insertion part (18) in the insertion direction is provided with first snap-fitting structures (18a) engaging a second side of said housing wall (10) opposite to the first side of the housing wall, wherein a first end of said conductor terminal (12) is configured to be inserted into an opening of said mounting module (14a; 14b) such that engagement of first snap-fitting structures (18a) with the a second side said housing wall (10) is locked by the insertion of said first end of said conductor terminal (12).
