  • Publication number: 20240088597
    Abstract: A connector module includes an insulator formed with a terminal slot for accommodating a terminal and a tool insertion port in communication with the terminal slot. A terminal locking member of the connector is installed on the insulator and movable between a pre locking position separated from the terminal and a final locking position engaged with the terminal. When the terminal locking member is in the pre locking position, the tool insertion port is not blocked by the terminal locking member to allow an operating tool to be inserted into the terminal slot through the tool insertion port to drive a locking spring of the terminal to an unlocking position separated from the insulator. With the terminal locking member in the final locking position, the tool insertion port is blocked by the terminal locking member to prevent the operating tool from being inserted into the terminal slot through the tool insertion port.

  • Patent number: 11921029
    Abstract: A product index mechanism for a product inspection system includes a material strip driving wheel and an index structure driving wheel. The material strip driving wheel engages with a material strip carrying a plurality of products to be inspected by an inspection device of the product inspection system. The driving wheel drives the material strip to move. The index structure driving wheel rotates synchronously with the material strip driving wheel and includes a plurality of product index structures thereon. As a product on the material strip is moved by the material strip driving wheel to an inspection position of the inspection device, one product index structure on the index structure driving wheel is rotated to a trigger position corresponding to a trigger of the inspection system. Activation of the trigger transmits a trigger signal to the inspection device to inspect the product.
