Abstract: A multi-polar shielded connector (15) includes a housing (24) having a plurality of accommodating portions (23) where end portions (17) of a plurality of shielded wires (16) together with terminals 18 are accommodated, respectively, a shielding member (25) provided in the housing (24), for covering the plurality of accommodating portions (23) in a lump to shield the end portions (17) of the shielded wires (16) and the terminals (18) connected to the end portions (17), a plurality of shield contact members (26) conductively contacting with respective braid wires (21) of the shielded wires 16, respectively, and a conductive block (27) assembled in the housing (24), for conductively connecting with the shielding member (25) and conductively connecting with the shielding member (25) to conductively connect the shielding member (25) and the shield contact members (26) to each other.

Abstract: A charging connector for an electric vehicle for charging a power receiving connector coupled with a power supplying connector on a charging stand includes air purging unit provided within the power supplying connector on the side to be coupled with the power receiving connector. The air purging unit serves to purge foreign substance such as dust or moisture applied. The air purging unit of the charging connector prevents moisture or foreign substance from intruding into the inside of the supplying connector to be coupled with the power receiving connector, and if intruded, permits them to be removed swiftly, thereby preventing troubles such as poor contact of terminal and short-circuiting.

Abstract: In a shielded connector adapted to be directly attached to an apparatus, contact pieces bendingly project from a metal shell which is attached to a connector housing and surrounds a terminal housing portion. An elastic contact portion is disposed in each of the contact pieces. When a flange of the connector housing is attached to an electric apparatus, the elastic contact portion is compressively deformed in an elastic deformation amount range so as to be pressingly contacted with an electrically conductive casing of the electric apparatus, whereby the contact pressure between the contact pieces and the casing is held.

Abstract: In a charging connector for an electric vehicle for charging a power receiving connector coupled with a power supplying connector, the power supplying connector includes an outer housing to be coupled with said power receiving connector; an inner housing to be slidably mounted on the front half and housing a plurality of terminals; and an air cylinder mounted inside said outer housing inside the rear half of said outer housing and a piston connected to the rear end of said inner housing. Whereby the inner housing is driven toward said power receiving connector by the operation of said air cylinder so that said terminals are connected to corresponding terminals of said power receiving connector.
