Patent number: 9343820Abstract: Cable assembly including an electrical wire and a crimp contact engaged to a terminal end of the electrical wire. The crimp contact has a centerline and first and second sidewalls that extend from the centerline in opposite directions. The centerline extends parallel to a longitudinal axis of the crimp contact. Each of the first and second sidewalls has a base section and a leg section. The leg section extends a lateral distance from the centerline to a longitudinal edge of the leg section. The base section extends a lateral distance from the centerline to a longitudinal edge of the base section. The lateral distance of the leg section is greater than the lateral distance of the base section for each of the first and second sidewalls. The leg sections of the first and second sidewalls are located opposite the base sections of the second and first sidewalls, respectively.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2013Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: TYCO ELECTRONICS CORPORATIONInventors: Peter DeSantis, Jeffrey Richard Ruth

Patent number: 9147957Abstract: An electrical connector is provided that includes a housing, terminals, and a stuffer. The housing has a plurality of terminal channels extending from a rear to a front of the housing. The front of the housing is configured to interface with a mating connector. The terminals are loaded into corresponding terminal channels from the rear of the housing. The terminals extend along a terminal axis between a mating end and a terminating end. The terminating end includes at least one tab that protrudes radially outward from the terminal axis. The stuffer is coupled to the rear of the housing. The stuffer includes multiple teeth received in corresponding terminal channels. When one terminal is not fully loaded in the terminal channel, the corresponding tooth engages one or more of the at least one tab of the terminal and forces the terminal further into the terminal channel.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2014Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: TYCO ELECTRONICS CORPORATIONInventors: Kurt Allan Randolph, Jeffrey Richard Ruth, Richard Benjamin Emenheiser
