20150118893 | ENVIRONMENTALLY SEALED CONTACT - An electrical contact includes a contact body having a mating portion and a barrel portion configured for receiving an electrical conductor. The barrel portion includes a wall defining a bore having a closed end and open end, and the bore includes a core receiver portion for receiving the core of an electrical conductor and a plug receiver portion adjacent the closed end of the bore. A hole is formed in the barrel portion proximate the closed end of the bore and extending into the plug receiver portion of the bore through the wall. A plug has a body portion configured to be inserted into the bore and to engage the plug receiver portion of the bore. The plug is disposed in the end of the plug receiver portion and is further configured to seal the plug receiving portion of the bore and the hole from the rest of the bore. | 04-30-2015 |
20150060630 | HOLD-DOWN ASSEMBLY - A hold-down assembly for retaining a portable electronic unit within an avionics equipment mounting tray includes a shaft, a locking collar, and an actuator knob. The shaft is coupled to pivot with the mounting tray. The locking collar slides along the shaft to engage the portable electronic unit. The actuator knob includes a knob body, a ratchet plate having detent holes within the knob body, a ball bearing, and a compression spring within the knob body. As the actuator knob is rotated to move along the shaft, the knob body and the ball bearing rotate with respect to the ratchet plate, and the ball bearing is forced against a spring bias of the compression spring as the ball bearing travels between adjacent detent holes. | 03-05-2015 |

A plug has a body portion configured to be inserted into the bore and to engage the plug receiver portion of the bore. The plug is disposed in the end of the plug receiver portion and is further configured to seal the plug receiving portion of the bore and the hole from the rest of the bore. | 09-18-2014 |
20140273585 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY WITH INTEGRATED LATCHING SYSTEM, STRAIN RELIEF, AND EMI SHIELDING - An electrical connector includes an electrically conductive housing for inhibiting electromagnetic interference. A latch device is mounted to opposite sides of the housing and extends from the housing for positively latching together the electrical connector with a mating connector. The latch device includes a biasing member for driving a latching end of the latch device toward a catch of the mating connector to securely retain the connectors in a mated configuration. The housing further includes a skirt on a mating end, the skirt having a plurality of cantilevered tangs for bearing against a corresponding skirt of the mating connector. | 09-18-2014 |
20130344723 | TERMINAL/CONNECTOR HAVING INTEGRAL OXIDE BREAKER ELEMENT - A one piece integral electrical terminal has a mount portion and a wire receiving portion. The wire receiving portion has a continuous annular interior wall having a contact portion with an integral oxide breaker especially suited to breaking through the oxide layer on aluminum wire. The wire receiving portion also has a sealing portion with at least one integral seal ring. An electrical cable is made by crimping the electrical terminal to an aluminum wire using a modified hexagonal crimp. | 12-26-2013 |
