Abstract: An electrical connector having a hollow electrically insulating body having opposed ends. A set of male electrical contact members is on one end of the body. First and second body part together define the body. One of the body parts defines the one end of the body and its hollow interior. The other of the body parts defines the other end of the body. A recess in the one body part communicates with the hollow interior of the body, and receives the other body part. Means extending from the other body part into the hollow interior serves in trapping thus locating electrical conductor means associated with the male electrical contact members and as part of members frictionally interengaging to resist disassembly of the body.

Abstract: An electrical adaptor or connector (1) comprising a housing (2), a carrier member (5) rotatably mounted on the housing, a plurality of selectable pin arrays (7) disposed on the carrier member and adapted whereby rotation of the carrier relative to the housing brings the pin arrays into their operative condition one at a time, a plurality of socket arrays (6) on the housing and an apertured member (4) rotatably mounted on the housing whereby rotation of the member (4) brings a selected one of the plurality of socket arrays (6) into an operative condition, one at a time. The member (4) is held in each indexed position by detent member (15). The pins of the plurality of selectable pin arrays (7) are pivotally mounted on the carrier member (5) so that they can be moved from a retracted inoperative position to an outwardly extended position in which they also become electrically connected to the socket array.
