Abstract: A charging inlet includes a positive conductor terminal configured to interconnect with a positive inlet terminal within an inlet housing via a first fastener and further configured to be fused to a positive conductor. The charging inlet further includes a negative conductor terminal configured to interconnect with a negative inlet terminal within the inlet housing via a second fastener and further configured to be fused to a negative conductor.

Abstract: An electrical connector for sealed applications includes a flange defining an opening surrounded by a sealing wall whose inner surface engages a resilient seal of a corresponding mating connector having a mating lever. An insulative housing carrying at least one electrical terminal is received through the opening. One or more trunnions extend from the sealing wall’s outer surface and engage camming slots in the mating lever to draw the connectors together and compress the seal, thereby creating a sealed interface.

Abstract: A device case for a connector assembly includes a header, a base, and a set of fasteners. The base includes a body portion and a wall extending from the body portion. The wall defines a sealing surface configured to engage a seal. The set of fasteners couples the header to the base. The set of fasteners is surrounded by the sealing surface.

Abstract: Electrical connectors coupleable through an aperture in a substrate are described. According to various embodiments, an electrical connector includes an upper mounting unit and a lower mounting unit. The upper mounting unit includes a first surface that engages with a first planar surface of the substrate, and a second surface that engages with a second surface of the substrate arranged substantially perpendicular to the first planar surface. The lower mounting unit is coupleable to the upper mounting unit through the aperture and engages with a third planar surface of the substrate opposed to the first planar surface of the substrate to secure the electrical connector in the aperture.

Abstract: An electrical connector has a connect or shroud. A pin block disposed in the connector body supports a plurality of terminal pins that have head portions projecting out a forward end of the pin block and tail portions projecting out a rearward end of the pin block. The connector shroud has a socket at a forward end that receives a terminal stabilizer that is locked to the pin block to hold the terminal stabilizer and the pin block in assembly with the connector shroud to form a module. The module may include a block seal that can be sandwiched between the terminal stabilizer and the pin block during assembly of the module. The rear end of the connector shroud is truncated at an angle for a direct top down assembly of the module to a housing that has an attachment collar that is truncated at the same angle. The pin terminal tail portions are bent at a right angle and project through holes in a pin alignment member and a printed circuit board that are mounted inside the housing.
