Abstract: A connector housing adapted to receive a contact comprises a first latch disposed on a top surface of the housing and having a first pressing part and a first extension portion formed on the first pressing part and a second latch disposed on the top surface of the housing and having a second pressing part and a second extension portion formed on the second pressing part. The first latch and the second latch are disposed side by side on the top surface and are adapted to lock to a case of a mating connector. The first latch and the second latch are unlocked by pressing down the first pressing part and the second pressing part. The first extension portion and the second extension portion are disposed adjacent to each other.

Abstract: A contact for an electrical connector is formed of a single piece of stamped and bent sheet metal. The contact includes a body having a base, a limit stop, and a latching tongue connected to the body at the base and having a free end opposite the base. The latching tongue is spaced apart from the limit stop in a resting position of the latching tongue and the latching tongue abuts the limit stop in a deflected position of the latching tongue.

Abstract: A housing for an electrical connection of a solar panel is disclosed. The housing comprises a first body having a first recess positioned along a side wall, a second body having a second recess positioned along a side wall, the second body attached to the first body to define a confined space, a bushing positioned between the first body and the second body and received in each of the first recess and the second recess, and a cable extending from an exterior of the first and second bodies through the bushing and into the confined space such that the bushing seals the confined space from the exterior.

Abstract: A connector housing assembly is disclosed. The connector housing assembly has a connector housing and a mating connector housing. The connector housing has a cable receptacle open in a cable direction. The mating connector housing has a contact receptacle open in a contact direction. The mating connector housing is connectable with the connector housing in a first position in which the cable direction and the contact direction are substantially perpendicular to each other and a second position in which the cable direction and contact direction are substantially parallel to each other.

Abstract: An electrical component that is adapted for being mounted onto a rail comprises a first outward-facing slot for receiving a first brim of a rail of a first type, a first outward-facing snap-lock for fixating a second brim of a rail of the first type, a first inward-facing slot for receiving a first brim of a rail of a second type and a first inward-facing snap-lock for fixating a second brim of a rail of the second type.

Abstract: A connector assembly is provided and includes a connector, a lock, and a spring arrangement. The connector has a housing, a spring arrangement holder, and a plug section. The housing has an upper shell and a lower shell that provide a lock receiving passageway into an interior thereof. The spring arrangement holder is disposed along the lower shell. The plug section is disposed along the lower shell and opposite the spring arrangement holder. The lock is inserted into the lock receiving passageway. The spring arrangement is inserted into the spring arrangement holder.

Abstract: An electrical connector unit and having an electrical connector and a connection tab connected to the electrical connector or connecting the electrical connector to a carrier-strip when a carrier strip is included in the electrical connector unit. The connector tab has a weakened shear resistance zone, so when the connection tab is sheared to separate it from the electrical connector or to separate the electrical connector and the carrier-strip, a reduced shearing force is required to shear the connection tab.

Abstract: A housing for an electrical connection of a solar panel is disclosed. The housing comprises a body having a first cable guide positioned on an outside of the body, a bushing positioned on a side wall of the body, and a cable extending from an exterior of the body, through the first cable guide and bushing, a nd into a space within the body.

Abstract: A magnetic flux enhancer system for a reluctance type resolver and an electromagnetic angle sensor having the same are provided. The electromagnetic angle sensor has a stator (210) and a rotor (115) that is rotatably supported by a rotation axis on the stator and separated therefrom by a gap, the stator having at least one magnetic field generating means (220) adapted to generate a distribution of magnetic flux that extends over the gap to the rotor, and at least one magnetic field detecting means (220) adapted to detect a change in the magnetic flux distribution caused by a rotation of the rotor. The electromagnetic angle sensor comprises a magnetic flux enhancer (230) adapted to be positioned on a side of the at least one magnetic field generating means that faces the rotor and to concentrate the generated distribution of magnetic flux over the gap along a radial direction substantially perpendicular to the rotation axis.

Abstract: A contact system includes at least one first contact, at least one second contact, and at least one movable contact. A coil is provided which, when energized generates a force. A magnet is also provided, the magnet having a magnetic force. The forces of the coil and magnet attract the at least one movable contact to the at least one first contact. A return spring having a spring force cooperates with the at least one movable contact to return the at least one movable contact to the at least one second contact when the coil is not energized. The sum of the forces applied by the coil and the magnet are sufficient to overcome the spring force of the return spring to provide a balanced force to both the at least one second contact and the at least one first contact.

Abstract: A solenoid is provided for an electrical switch. The solenoid includes a coil having a passageway extending therethrough along a central longitudinal axis. The solenoid also includes a movable core having a coil segment and a magnet segment. The coil segment is received within the passageway of the coil such that the coil extends around the coil segment. The magnet segment includes a radially outer surface relative to the central longitudinal axis of the passageway of the coil. The movable core is movable relative to the coil along the central longitudinal axis such that the coil segment is movable within the passageway of the coil along the central longitudinal axis. A permanent magnet extends around at least a portion of the radially outer surface of the magnet segment of the movable core. The movable core is movable along the central longitudinal axis relative to the permanent magnet.
