Abstract: A lever-type electrical connector (102), a corresponding mating electrical connector (104) for accepting the lever-type electrical connector (102), and a lever-type electrical connector assembly (100) thereof are described herein. The lever-type electrical connector (102) has a first portion (300) with a first slot (302) configured to accept a rib protrusion (114) of the corresponding mating electrical connector (104) and a lever (304) pivotally mounted to the first portion (300) with cam grooves (408) on opposing interior surfaces configured to accept cam-follower protrusions (210) on opposite sides of the rib protrusion (114).

Abstract: An electrical center for distributing electrical power to an electrical system of a vehicle and a method of manufacture the same is described herein. The electrical center includes a printed circuit board structure having a first printed circuit board (PCB) section angularly arranged with respect to a second PCB section. The printed circuit board structure includes a flexible connection element integrally formed with the first and second PCB sections forming a printed circuit extending from the first to second PCB section. The electrical center also includes a first plurality of electrical terminals extending perpendicularly from a first major surface of the first PCB section and a second plurality of electrical terminals extending perpendicularly from a second major surface of the second PCB section. The first major surface is angularly arranged at about a ninety degree angle relative to the second major surface.

Abstract: A bussed electrical center includes an electrical-assembly and a single fastening feature. The electrical-assembly includes a lower-housing, a printed-circuit-board, an upper-housing, and electrical-devices. The lower-housing engages an outer-housing that retains electrical-connectors having a plurality of electrical-terminals. The printed-circuit-board has a plurality of corresponding-electrical-terminals configured to mate with the plurality of electrical-terminals of the electrical-connectors. The electrical-assembly defines a guide-hole that passes through the upper-housing, the printed-circuit-board, and the lower-housing, wherein the guide-hole defines a shoulder in the upper-housing. The single fastening feature consists of one first-fastener element positioned within the guide-hole that has a flange and a shank. The shank is operable to engage one second-fastener element in the outer-housing.
