A connector backshell assembly is provided for strain relief mounting to an electrical cable. The assembly includes a backshell having forward and rearward ends and an axially extending cable-receiving aperture therethrough. A toroidally configured, radially compressible strain relief coil spring surrounds the cable and is disposed near the rearward end of the backshell. A compression nut is engageable with the backshell for selective rotational and axial movement relative thereto. The compression nut includes a forwardly facing concave cam surface for engaging and radially compressing the coil spring into strain relief engagement with the cable. An interference surface is operatively associated with the backshell and non-rotatably engageable with the strain relief coil spring to prevent rotation of the coil spring with the compression nut relative to the backshell.

A lighted adapter for use in an electrical system which includes a male connector and a mateable female connector connectable in a given line circuit. The connectors include complementary interengaging terminals. The adapter includes a housing having a female end for mating with the male connector and a male end for mating with the female connector. An electronic package is located within the housing and includes adapter terminals for engagement with the terminals of the connectors when the housing is mated between the connectors, whereby the electronic package is electrically coupled to the line circuit through the adapter. A light source is provided in the housing and coupled in the circuit therethrough. A light transmitting lens is associated with the housing and arranged in proximity to the light source to provide external viewing of a lighted condition of the light source and, thereby, a line circuit condition through the adapter.

An electrical connector comprising a housing part, a cap part, and a clamp screw. The housing part has a conductor receiving channel formed therein. The cap part is removably connected to the housing part. The clamp screw is threadably mounted to the cap part to clamp a first conduct or located in the conductor receiving channel of the housing part to the housing. The clamp screw has means for connecting a second conductor to an insulated portion of the first conductor. The connecting means comprise the clamp screw having a contact surface disposed to capture a terminal of the second conductor between the contact surface and the first conductor.

A removal tool is operable for separating components of an assembled electrical connector used for connecting electrical conductors together. The electrical connector includes a tapered connector sleeve having a general "C" cross section with a slot defining a stop ledge and a wedge having a latching ledge which engages the stop ledge when inserted into the slot preventing removal of the wedge. The removal tool with a first block member includes outwardly projecting ears for selective insertion into the slot for engagement with the stop ledge. A second block member includes outwardly projecting slide pins. The first block member is slidably received on the slide pins for movement toward and away from the second block member, a removal blade on the second block member having a tapered nose member projecting toward the first block member and an integral shoulder on the second block member facing the first block member and spaced from the removal blade in a direction away from the first block member. When the assembled electrical connector is positioned on the removal tool with the ears projecting into the slot of the connector sleeve and the tapered nose member is inserted between the wedge and the connector sleeve, movement of the first block member toward the second block member causes the latching ledge of the wedge to disengage from the stop ledge. With continued movement of the first block member toward the second block member the shoulder engages the wedge and forces its removal from the connector sleeve.

An electrical wedge connector having a shell, a wedge assembly, seals and cushions. The wedge assembly has a dielectric frame and electrically conductive bars. The seals are mounted around the outer ends of the bars. The cushions are positioned between the conductors and the shell. When the wedge connector connects the two conductors the bars electrically connect the conductors in a sealed electrical connection.
摘要:
An electrical wedge connector with a wedge and a shell. The shell is a one-piece sheet metal member with a conductor piercing section. The conductor piercing section comprises a tab of the sheet metal member at an end of the shell that is folded about 180° inward against an interior side of the shell. The tab has a section that projects in an inward direction generally perpendicular to the interior side and has teeth at an end edge thereof.
摘要:
An electrical wedge connector with a sleeve and a wedge. The sleeve has two locking tabs to lock the wedge in the sleeve. The locking tabs extend into a wedge receiving area of the sleeve generally toward each other and have general cantilevered shapes.
摘要:
An electrical wedge connector having a shell and a wedge. The wedge has a main body and flaps extending from the main body. Conductor receiving areas are formed between the flaps and the main body. The main body also has insulation piercers for piercing through electrical insulation on the conductors in the receiving areas.
摘要:
An electrical connector with a first U-shaped section and a second section. The first and second sections each have a conductor receiving channel. The channels have center axes that extend along parallel planes, but are angled relative to each other. One embodiment has the second section with a U-shape orientated generally reverse to the first section and sharing a common bottom. A set of compression dies are provided to allow the first and second sections to be compressed onto respective conductors at the same time.
摘要:
An electrical connector for grounding an electrical conductor. The connector has a base, a U-shaped fastener and a nut. The base is a one-piece metal member with a threaded stud, an elongate seat along one exterior side, and a hole through the base located between the seat and the stud. The U-shaped fastener has a first leg that extends through the hole, a second leg that extends along an exterior side of the base, and a head located opposite the seat on the base. The nut is attached to the legs of the U-shaped fastener on a side of the base opposite from the side of the base facing the head of the U-shaped fastener.
