  • Publication number: 20240356257
    Abstract: A connector cover (200) for a FFC/FPC connector (100) is described. The connector cover (200) for a FFC/FPC connector (100) comprises at least one electric terminals array (101), and it is slidable along a sliding direction (Z) from a fixed pre-lock position (PLP), in which at least one FFC/FPC (300) can be inserted into the cover connector (100) along an insertion direction (X), to a fixed lock-position (LP), in which the at least one FFC/FPC (300) is blocked into the connector (100) and can thus be welded to the at least one electric terminals array (101) of the connector (100). A connector device, a connector assembly, a connector kit and a method to form a connector assembly are described as well.

  • Patent number: 11432411
    Abstract: A device for connecting one or more electrical connectors to a printed circuit board includes a casing, a printed circuit board supported within the casing, and a miniaturized connector system. The miniaturized connector system includes a connector element mounted on a main side of the printed circuit board. The connector element includes a main body connected to the printed circuit board and defining a receptacle, and a metal terminal electrically connected to the printed circuit board. The metal terminal is arranged inside the receptacle and cooperates with a terminal of a cable. The miniaturized connector system includes an auxiliary portion of the main body arranged on an extension of the main body and defining an extension portion of the receptacle. The auxiliary portion is an integral part of a portion of the casing and has at least one seat receiving the printed circuit board and positioning the printed circuit board.

  • Patent number: 11282657
    Abstract: A device for controlling and/or supplying information on a recharging operation of an electric motor vehicle or a hybrid motor vehicle includes a casing, a printed circuit board mounted within the casing, and a human-machine interface associated with the casing. The human-machine interface includes a push-button switching device having an on/off button, having a push-button body, carrying at least one electric contact, arranged within the casing, and having a portion mounted to the printed circuit board. The push-button switching device has an arm protruding from the push-button body. The arm abuts against an abutment wall arranged within the casing when the on/off button is pressed.

  • Patent number: 11067257
    Abstract: A lighting device uses a plurality of lighting sources. The lighting device includes a printed circuit board having a main side on which the lighting sources are arranged side by side, the lighting sources are oriented so as to project an emitted light radiation in a direction perpendicular to the main side, a first support body supporting the printed circuit board in a horizontal direction, a second support body rigidly connected to the first support body to form a single casing, and a reflector element rigidly connected by a plurality of connecting members to the second support body. The reflector element has a plurality of reflective surfaces arranged side by side. Each of the reflective surfaces faces towards one of a plurality of channel-shaped portions of the second support body and directs the emitted light radiation to one of a plurality of lenses at ends of the channel-shaped portions.
