Abstract: A method for manufacturing a female electrical terminal includes the steps of providing a sheet metal blank and forming the sheet metal blank to include a wiring portion for the attaching of an electrical wire and a receiving portion for the receiving of a male electrical terminal in a receiving direction. The receiving portion includes a base portion and two lateral portions. Each lateral portion including an end portion configured to form a top surface of the receiving hollow, at least one link beam linking the end portion to the base portion, and a support beam also linking the end portion to the base portion. The method includes a further step of bending the lateral portions to form the receiving hollow and an additional step of modifying, in particular, reducing, at least one dimension of the support beam.

Abstract: A socket for a high-voltage socket connector includes a conductor connection section adapted for being connected to a conductor of a cable, and a pin receptacle section adapted for receiving a pin of a mating plug connector along a mating direction, wherein the pin receptacle section is integral with the conductor connection section, and wherein the pin receptacle section comprises at least two free ends that extend in opposite circumferential directions around the mating direction and at least in sections face each other.

Abstract: A connector shielding for a connector includes a plurality of shielding walls forming a receptacle receiving a mating connector and a guiding protrusion disposed on at least one of the shielding walls and protruding from the at least one of the shielding walls toward the receptacle. The receptacle is open in an insertion direction at a forward end for insertion of the mating connector. The shielding walls are parallel with each other at least in sections in a cross-section perpendicular to the insertion direction.

Abstract: A contact element includes a frame and a contact spring fixed to the frame. The frame has a first region and a second region opposite the first region. The second region is spaced apart from the first region by a gap. The contact spring has a fixed end fixed to the first region of the frame and a free end opposite the fixed end. The contact spring extends from the first region across the gap to the second region. The free end of the contact spring overlaps the second region.

Abstract: A crimp terminal includes a crimping segment having a base, a first side wall extending from the base, and a second side wall extending from the base opposite the first side wall. The crimping segment has a first surface adapted for arranging a wire thereon along a longitudinal axis and a second surface opposite the first surface. The first side wall has a first serration on the second surface. The second side wall has a pair of second serrations on the second surface. The first serration is displaced from the second serrations along the longitudinal axis and, in a crimped state, a portion of the first serration is positioned between a pair of portions of the second serrations along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein for intelligent service request analysis and remedy. In an aspect, a service request related to a computer system is received. Once received, natural language processing is conducted to determine at least one key term associated with the at least one service request. A machine learning algorithm is then used to determine at least one classification group for the at least one service request, wherein the classification group is associated with the remedy. A rate of success is determined for the determined remedy for the classification group. Based on the rate of success exceeding a predetermined threshold, cause the remedy to be implemented in the computer system.

Abstract: A cover assembly includes a protective cover having an impedance control structure and a plurality of electrical conductors conducting electrical signals of a high-frequency data transmission. The electrical conductors extend through the protective cover in a transmission direction and are overlappingly bonded to each other at a bond location located within the protective cover. The impedance control structure adjusts an impedance of the bond location to a predefined value.

Abstract: A shielding for a signal connector includes a plurality of shielding walls arranged to electromagnetically shield a signal contact of the signal connector, a forward end open for receiving a mating connector along an insertion direction, and a longitudinal circumferential retention element extending along a circumferential direction of the shielding. At least two of the shielding walls are parallel with each other at least in sections in a cross-section perpendicular to the insertion direction.

Abstract: A contact terminal includes a terminal shield, a contact carrier, and a contact element for conducting electrical signals of a high-frequency data transmission. The contact carrier retains the contact element in a fixed position within the terminal shield. The terminal shield has a discontinuity that affects an impedance of the contact element. At least one of the contact carrier and the contact element has an impedance control feature configured to adjust the impedance of the contact element to a predefined desired value according to a frequency of the data transmission.
