20080271921CONTACT DEVICE FOR PROVIDING AN ELECTRICAL CONTACT BETWEEN FLAT CURRENT CARRYING LINE ELEMENTS - A contact device for providing an electrical contact between a first busbar (11-06-2008
20110041896DEVICE FOR THE EXTERNAL ELECTRICAL CONNECTION OF ELECTRICALLY ACTIVE CELLS OF AN ELECTRICALLY ACTIVE PANEL, SUCH AS ELECTRICITY-GENERATING CELLS OF A PHOTOVOLTAIC PANEL - Device for the external electrical connection of a photovoltaic panel (02-24-2011
20110300738ELECTRICAL CONNECTION ASSEMBLY - This electrical connection assembly includes a female element which includes at least one electrical contact, and a male electrical connection element intended to be inserted in the female element. The male element includes a plug and a sleeve that surrounds the plug and is mobile relative to the plug. At least one electrical contact is carried by the plug or the sleeve and is intended to be electrically connected to the electrical contact carried by the female element. An external radial surface of the sleeve includes at least two stages the diameters of which decrease in the direction toward a free end of the male element, and the female element including a body the internal radial surface of which includes at least two stages the diameters of which increase in the direction toward a mouth of the female element. According to the invention, the external surfaces of the stages of the sleeve are substantially complementary to the external surfaces of the stages of the internal surface of the body of the female element. Moreover, when the sleeve is fully inserted in the female element the stage of larger diameter of the male element is engaged in the stage of larger diameter of the female element and the stage of smaller diameter of the male element is engaged in the stage of smaller diameter of the female element.12-08-2011
