    摘要: A plug connector to be connected, by plugging, to a mating plug connector, includes a contact carrier manufactured from an electrically insulating material, an electrical grounding contact arranged at the contact carrier for electrical contact with the mating plug connector, and an electrically conductive housing part connected to the contact carrier. An electrically conductive contacting element is manufactured by means of a casting technique. The electrically conductive contacting element has a first contacting portion which bears against the housing part in an electrically contacting manner, and a second contacting portion which bears against the grounding contact in an electrically contacting manner, and electrically connects the housing part to the grounding contact.

    摘要: A press-fit terminal has a press-fit portion that includes a first piece and a second piece that are formed as a result of the metal plate being split into two parts in a width direction of the metal plate by a long slit extending in a lengthwise direction of the metal plate. The first piece is curved to protrude in one direction of the thickness direction of the metal plate, and the second piece is curved to protrude in the other direction of the thickness direction of the metal plate. Each of the first piece and the second piece includes a large thickness portion that is provided at a protruding end portion and two small thickness portions that are provided on both sides in the lengthwise direction with the large thickness portion interposed between the two small thickness portions.

    摘要: A connector processing machine includes a contact feeding mechanism at a contact loading station having a dereeler configured to support a contact reel having a strip of contacts and a feed device configured to feed the contacts from the contact loading station to a contact stacking station. The connector processing machine includes a contact stacking module at a contact stacking station having a contact punch mechanism with a contact cutter configured to successively shear the contacts from the contact strip and a contact inserter mechanism with a contact pusher configured to successively move the sheared contact into a contact nest where the contacts are stacked into a contact stack. The connector processing machine includes a contact manipulator configured to pick the contact stack from the contact nest and place the contact stack into a connector housing.

    摘要: A connector processing machine includes a feeder mechanism having a housing track for supporting connector housings between a loading zone and a punching zone. The feeder mechanism includes a feeder rail and a carriage sliding along the feeder rail by a feeder actuator between a pickup position and a drop off position. The feeder mechanism includes a walking beam movable by the carriage between the loading zone and the punching zone. The walking beam includes fingers configured to engage the connector housings to advance the connector housings. The connector processing machine includes a punch assembly having a cutter assembly coupled to the walking beam and movable with the walking beam with cutters configured to cut housing runners between the connector housings to separate the connector housings from each other.
