  • Patent number: 9960549
    Abstract: An electrical connector is disclosed. The electrical connector has a middle housing having a first upper contact spring and a first upper opening, an upper cover connected to the middle housing and having a first upper termination clamp, wherein the upper cover rotatably and linearly moves with respect to the middle housing between an open position and a closed position, and a cable having a first core, the first core extending into the first upper opening. In the closed position of the upper cover, the first upper termination clamp contacts the first core in an electrically conductive manner and abuts the first upper contact spring.

  • Patent number: 7445488
    Abstract: An electrical connecting device includes a housing having a receiving channel that receives an electrical conductor. A contact element is seated in the housing. The contact element has a piercing element extending into the receiving channel that electrically contacts the electrical conductor. At least a portion of the housing and at least a portion of the electrical conductor in electrical contact with the piercing element are substantially surrounded by a common sheath made of a non-conductive material that forms a uniform bond with the housing and the electrical conductor.

  • Patent number: 7134883
    Abstract: A connecting box with a printed circuit board is described which has electrical components electrically connected to conductor rails of the connecting box. The printed circuit board is preferably held in the connecting box by an adhesive layer. Simple assembly and disassembly of the components is possible as a result of the use of the printed circuit board. In addition, the heat generated in the components can be better dissipated via the printed circuit board.
