  • Patent number: 5620333
    Abstract: An electrical cable assembly having electrical wires, an electrical connector body, and a strain relief hood. The connector body is connected to first ends of the wires by electrical contacts. The strain relief hood is connected to the connector body and the cable. The hood has a first section snap-lock connected to the connector body and a second section attached to the cable. The first section includes a cantilevered side wall formed, at least partially, by two slots between the cantilevered side wall and two adjacent side walls. A latch for a second electrical connector is mounted over the cantilevered side wall for substantially preventing the cantilevered side wall from being outwardly deflected while the latch is connected to the hood.

  • Patent number: 5318465
    Abstract: A system to connect and retain a first member with a second member. The first member has a mounting section with two arms and a bridge between the arms. The arms are canted towards each other in a general cantilever fashion and are deflectable outward from each other. The bridge extends between middle sections of the two arms and is deflectable as the arms are moved outward. The bridge can be collapsed to retain the arms in their outward position.

  • Patent number: 4838801
    Abstract: A leadless component socket comprises a socket body of electrically insulative material and planar, substantially parallel, top and bottom surfaces, and a plurality of openings between the surfaces in an array to provide an intended contact pattern. A two-piece spring contact assembly is retained in respective openings, with one element retained within the opening and having an outwardly extending lead for soldering or other connection to a circuit board on which the socket is mounted, and the other element extending above the upper socket surface in a position to engage the confronting terminals of a leadless component or device, such as a leadless chip carrier.

  • Patent number: 4626779
    Abstract: Improved spring-stops for a bi-level test fixture of the type that includes an electronic circuit device receiving face moveable between in-circuit and functional testing levels of a probe support plate are disclosed. A spring-loaded plate is provided below the probe support plate, and a plurality of elongated rods that extend between the electronic circuit device receiving face and the spring-loaded plate are provided for transferring the resilient force of the spring-loaded plate to the electronic circuit device receiving face. The transferred resilient force opposes the force exerted on the electronic circuit device receiving face from either operator or automatic testing equipment selectable vacuum levels such that the electronic circuit device receiving face moves to a selected one of the incircuit and functional testing levels. The rods are individually friction-fit for reciprocating motion in a low coefficient of friction and low compressive strength bushing.

  • Patent number: 4625164
    Abstract: A test fixture for selectively electrically connecting an electronic circuit device for in-circuit and functional testing by automatic testing equipment. First and second pluralities of spring-loaded probes are fastened to the test fixture for respectively providing an in-circuit contact array on a first level and a functional contact array on a second level. An electronic cicuit device receiving face is mounted to the test fixture for movement to the first level for electrically connecting the electronic circuit device to the in-circuit contact array, and for movement to the second level for electrically connecting the electronic circuit device to the functional contact array. Means including a bi-level vacuum controller are disclosed for selectively moving the electronic circuit device receiving face to the first and second levels.
