Abstract: A connector rear cover includes a middle portion having a first edge and a second edge, a first lateral portion having a first lateral edge, and a second lateral portion having a second lateral edge. The first lateral portion is connected to the middle portion by a first hinge and the second lateral portion is connected to the middle portion by a second hinge so that the connector rear cover is foldable between an open and a closed state. The first edge of the middle portion faces the first lateral edge of the first lateral portion and the second edge of the middle portion faces the second lateral edge of the second lateral portion. The edges have recesses such that, in the closed state, there are openings between the middle portion and the first lateral portion and between the middle portion and the second lateral portion that receive electric conductors.

Abstract: A fastening device for fastening an electrical terminal to an electrically conducting post includes a spring and a locking device retaining the electrical terminal on the electrically conducting post in a locked position of the fastening device. The spring is at least partially loaded in the locked position.

Abstract: An electrical connector for a safety restraint system comprises a connector housing, a plurality of contact elements disposed in the connector housing, an activation member movable relative to the connector housing in an activation direction between a deactivation position and an activation position, and a short-circuiting member disposed on the activation member. The connector housing is adapted to be plugged into a mating connector in a plug-in direction. The contact elements are adapted to be brought into electrical contact with a plurality of mating contact elements of the mating connector. The short-circuiting member is disposed on the activation member and electrically connects the contact elements only in the deactivation position. The contact elements are not electrically connected to one another in the activation position.

Abstract: A pyrotechnic electrical connector comprises a housing and a connector position assurance device. The housing is configured for plugging in and locking to a mating connector. The housing receives a plurality of electrical terminals to be connected to a plurality of mating electrical terminals of the mating connector. The connector position assurance device is insertable in the housing in an insertion direction to a delivery position and a locking position. The locking position maintains locking of the housing to the mating connector when the housing is plugged in and locked to the mating connector. Insertion of the connector position assurance device is blocked at the delivery position and prevented from reaching the locking position if the housing is not plugged in or locked to the mating connector.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrical plug-element for an electrical plug-in connector, comprising a conductor receiving section adapted to take up at least one electrical conductor, and a cap which in a fitted position (R) at least partly covers the conductor receiving section and/or the conductor. In order to securely hold the cap on the plug-element, the present invention provides a blocking member, which in a blocking position (B) blocks the cap in the fitted position (R).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrical connector, a coupling electrical connector and an electrical connector assembly, the electrical connector including a guiding protuberance protruding from its socket face parallel to a coupling direction, the coupling electrical connector being designed with a guiding pocket for receiving the guiding protuberance. In order to improve the strength of a connection between the two electrical connectors, even when the electrical connector assembly experiences vibrations, the invention provides that at least one of the electrical connectors includes a fixing element which is elastically deformable on at least one section along a direction perpendicular to the coupling direction according to the invention.

Abstract: A connector is floatably mounted to a panel which has a cutout receiving the connector therethrough. In the unmated condition, the mating face of the connector is biased away from the panel by a spring, and widened portions of the connector are received in complementary recesses of the panel cutout. The engagement of the widened portions in the recesses centers the connector with respect to the panel cutout. During coupling with a complementary connector, the first connector is biased in the mating direction such that the widened portions disengage from the complementary recesses thereby allowing floating movement of the first connector with respect to panel, in the plane orthogonal to the mating direction.
