  • Publication number: 20190245300
    Abstract: A connector housing assembly and a dress cover configured to provide multiple wire routing options are provided. The dress cover includes an exit path defining a path for which the wire bundle is routed. The dress cover further includes a tie feature and a tape feature. The tape feature is a generally planar member extending from an outer peripheral side of a back wall and is orthogonal to the plane of a first side wall of the dress cover and is coplanar with the exit path. The tie feature is mounted on the first side wall and is adjacent the exit path. The tie feature is disposed above a plane of the exit path so as to allow the tied bundle of wire to be tied along the plane of the exit path.

  • Patent number: 10249976
    Abstract: A connector housing assembly is configured to withstand a cantilevered force applied by wires onto the dress cover and prevent contact between the dress cover sidewalls and the wire or a terminal to reduce disengagement of the connector housing and dress cover. The connector housing includes ridges integrated on the outer surface of the sidewalls of the connector housing. The dress cover includes a finger feature integrated on the sidewalls of the dress cover that engages the ridges of the connector housing to produce a cantilever force that counter acts the force exerted on the dress cover from the of wires. The dress cover further includes stabilizing ribs connected to the interior surfaces of the sidewalls and top surfaces. The stabilizing ribs prevent movement of the assembly causing the terminal or wire from rattling resulting in wear or damage to the wire or terminal.

  • Patent number: 10236618
    Abstract: A connector assembly is configured to withstand the bending force of a bundle of wires exerted onto the dress cover so as to maintain the engagement of the dress cover to the connector housing. The connector housing includes a locking tab is an outer surface of the connector housing. The dress cover includes a hood defining an exit path on one end for which the wire bundle is routed. The dress cover includes a locking leg configured to engage the locking tab so as to secure the dress cover to the connector housing. The connector housing further includes a reinforcing tab disposed on an inner surface of the dress cover and spaced apart from the locking leg. The locking leg and the reinforcement tab cooperate to pinch a side wall of the connector housing and help secure the engagement between the locking leg and the locking tab.
