| 20120077376 | Plug-In Connector for Connecting to a Coaxial Cable - A cable assembly includes a coaxial cable and a plug-in connector. The cable has inner and outer conductors and an insulation layer between the conductors. The connector has first and second tubular components. The first tubular component is inserted between the insulation layer and the outer conductor at a free end section of the cable and the second tubular component is connected to the first tubular component and encloses the outer conductor whereby the plug-in connector is connected to the cable. The second tubular component forms a sleeve that opens toward the free end section of the cable. | 03-29-2012 |
| 20120034817 | Shielded Plug-In Connector Arrangement - A cable assembly includes a coaxial cable and a plug-and-socket (plug-in) connector part. The connector part has a sleeve, a sleeve contact, and a shielding module. The sleeve is connected to the outer conductor of the cable at a free end section of the cable and the sleeve contact is connected to the inner conductor of the cable. The shielding module includes a shielding plate and a chamber insert. The chamber insert is inserted into the shielding plate and receives the sleeve contact. The shielding module is connected to the sleeve such that the sleeve and the shielding plate surround the sleeve contact with the sleeve contact enclosed by the chamber insert up to a side of the sleeve contact intended for connecting along a direction of insertion with a contact pin of a mating plug-in connector. | 02-09-2012 |
| 20110244712 | ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE - An electrical appliance includes a housing having a holding chamber and an insert slot, an insulation displacement connector (IDC), and an electrical component such as a battery inserted into the holding chamber. The component has an electric connector extending through the holding chamber into the insert slot. Upon insertion of the IDC into the insert slot, the IDC contacts the electric connector of the component and contacts a printed circuit board (PCB) mounted to the housing whereby the electrical component and the PCB are electrically connected via the electric connector of the component and the IDC. The holding chamber completely surrounds, at least in sections, the component within the holding chamber. The holding chamber includes a radially-pivotable latching clip which axially fixes in place the component within the holding chamber. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20100081304 | HIGH-POWER BREAKER SWITCH FOR A VEHICLE - Breaker switch includes connector, socket, and surrounding housings. The connector housing has contacts and a blocking lever. The socket housing has sockets and a gear rack. An operating lever has a gear mounted to the connector housing and engaged to the gear rack to mount the connector and socket housings such that the connector housing is movable relative to the socket housing between starting and final positions. In the starting position the connector and socket housings disengage such that the contacts and sockets disengage. In the final position the connector and socket housings engage such that the contacts and sockets engage. In the starting and final positions the blocking lever engages the gear to maintain the position of the connector housing. The surrounding housing is connected to the socket housing and has a control edge that releases the blocking lever from the gear to enable the connector housing to move. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100073119 | HIGH-POWER BREAKER SWITCH FOR A VEHICLE - A breaker switch includes a connector housing having plug-in contacts and a socket housing having sockets. The connector housing has a fuse chamber having an opening through which a fuse can be inserted into the fuse chamber. A lever pivotably mounts the housings such that the connector housing is movable with the lever relative to the socket housing between starting and final positions. In the starting position the housings disengage such that the contacts and sockets disengage. In the final position the housings engage such that the contacts and sockets engage. A cover is movably connected to the connector housing to move between opened and closed positions. The cover opens the fuse chamber opening when opened and closes the fuse chamber opening when closed. When the cover is opened the cover prevents the connector housing from moving to the final position thereby preventing the contacts and sockets from electrically connecting. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20090263998 | ELECTRICAL PLUG CONNECTOR - An electrical plug connector includes a first connector housing, a slider, and a cap. The slider has slider surfaces insertable into the first housing in a direction transverse to a direction of insertion of a second housing to the first housing at a connecting side of the first housing. The slider is connected to the first housing upon the slider surfaces being inserted into the first housing. The cap is on a cap side of the first housing lying opposite to the connecting side of the first housing. The slider surfaces connect with the cap to latch the cap to the cap side of the first housing upon the slider surfaces being inserted into the first housing. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20080227325 | Electrical plug-and-socket connector - An electrical plug-and-socket connector includes a housing having chambers for receiving contacts. Latches of the chambers hold contacts inserted in the chambers. The housing has first and second openings with pairs of the first and second openings respectively leading into the chambers. A flap attached to the housing is pivotable to either open away from the housing or close against the housing. The flap includes first projections which extend through the first openings into the chambers when the flap is closed to lock contacts held in the chambers. The flap includes second projections which extend through the second openings into the chambers when the flap is closed and when the contacts held in the chambers are positioned correctly in the chambers to engage the contacts and thereby reinforce the locking of the contacts held in the chambers. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080200076 | Electric plug connector - An electric plug connector includes a guide sleeve, a plug connector part attachable to the guide sleeve, a bayonet ring on the connector part for rotatably engaging with the guide sleeve to move between unlocked and locked positions, and a locking button arranged on the bayonet ring to slide with the ring as the ring moves. While the connector part is attached to the guide sleeve the ring locks the attachment by engaging with the guide sleeve when the ring is in its locked position. The button is displaceable relative to the guide sleeve between inactivated and activated positions. The button includes a latching hook and a pin that interact with the sleeve to enable the button to move between its inactivated and activated positions. The latching hook and the pin engage with the sleeve when the button is in its activated position to secure the locking of the attachment. | 08-21-2008 |
