Abstract: An electrical connector housing is disclosed having a first housing member, and a second housing member mated with the first housing member. A front wall is disposed on an outer surface of at least one of the housing members and extends perpendicular to an insertion direction. A first sidewall is disposed on the outer surface of the first housing member and extends along the insertion direction, perpendicular to the front wall. A second sidewall is disposed on the outer surface of the second housing member and extends along the insertion direction, parallel with the first sidewall and perpendicular to the front wall. A cantilevered first lock arm extends along an insertion direction and is positioned between the first sidewall and second sidewall. The lock arm includes a fixed end, a free end, and a hook.

Abstract: A locking connector having a body with a receiving section and a mating section. The locking connector includes a cantilevered lock arm with a pivoting end integrally formed with a midpoint of the receiving section and extending along an axial direction towards a mating end of the mating section. The locking connector also includes a locking projection disposed on an outer surface of a mating end of the cantilevered lock arm. A lock release arm is integrally formed with the mating end of the cantilevered lock arm and separately extends along the axial direction from the mating end of the cantilevered lock arm towards the receiving section. The lock release arm projects from a terminal end of the receiving section.

Abstract: A connector is provided that includes a housing and an electronic circuit. The housing includes a mating section with a mating contact, a mounting section having a circuit board contact, and a circuit receiving space positioned along an inner surface thereof. The electronic circuit is positioned in the circuit receiving space and connects to both of the mating contact and the circuit board contact. The electronic circuit includes a photocoupler which electrically insulates the mating contact and the circuit board contact from each other and relays a signal in an optical manner.
