  • Patent number: 8888517
    Abstract: A connector socket has two hooking parts each having at least one hook to fasten to a housing, at least one hooking part is mounted on the housing; the two hooking parts move apart from each other when at least the slidable hooking part slides from a retracted position towards a deployed position; at least one tongue that is connected to the slidable hooking part to cause the hooking part to slide from a deployed position to a retracted position when an operator presses against the tongue; and at least one spring distinct from the hooking parts, each spring having one end connected to the housing and its other end connected to a corresponding slidable hooking part and exerting a thrust force thereon transversely to the axis of the housing, at least when in a deployed position and in the absence of pressure being applied on the corresponding tongue.

  • Patent number: 7581984
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a multicontact connector comprising: a connector body presenting front and rear faces and including at least one cavity extending between the front and rear faces and opening out therein; at least one insert arranged to receive contact elements, in particular electrical or optical contact elements; and at least one retention member arranged to retain the insert in the cavity of the connector body, the retention member comprising at least one elastically deformable tab movable between a locking position preventing the insert from being withdrawn from the cavity and a retracted position enabling the insert to be withdrawn from the cavity, in particular via the rear face of the connector body, the tab having at least two bearing faces, one of which is arranged in such a manner that a force applied thereagainst and directed towards the front face of the body of the connector causes the tabs to be retracted, and another one of which is arranged in such a manner that a force applied
