Abstract: An electrical connector socket includes an outer receptacle and an inner receptacle disposed with the outer receptacle. A biasing element disposed between the inner receptacle and the outer receptacle biases the inner receptacle to a predetermined position with respect to the outer receptacle and allows displacement of the inner receptacle from the predetermined position to another position in response to an external force.

Abstract: An electrical connector for use with a separable mating connector includes base and a contact element captively received within the base. The contact element may be laterally or laterally and rotatably displaceable with respect to the base.

Abstract: An electrical connector includes a first and second array of flexible beams that are overlapped within a hood and that define a substantially cylindrically cavity for receiving a mating connector. Contact areas of each of the flexible beams may be shaped to define multiple contact points, thus increasing the overall area available for current to pass.

Abstract: A multiple socket power connector assembly for use with a printed circuit board having at least one first trace extending to an array of first interconnect holes in the printed circuit board and at least one second trace extending to an array of second interconnect holes in the printed circuit board. The connector assembly comprises a connector housing having a base and a wall extending upwardly from the base. First and second conductive sockets are carried by the connector housing in vertically spaced-apart positions relative to the base and are accessible from the wall. A first set of pin members extending from the base and electrically coupled to the first conductive socket engage the array of first interconnect holes in the printed circuit board. A second set of pin members extending from the base and electrically coupled to the second conductive socket engage the array of second interconnect holes in the printed circuit board.
