  • Electrical connector comprising a mat seal and a ramp system for compressing the mat seal
    Patent number: 7914309
    Abstract: The electrical connector includes an insulative housing having a rear skirt extending rearward with respect to the rear face of the insulative housing, a mat seal disposed in the rear skirt against the rear face, a rear grid, disposed in the rear skirt, against the mat seal. The electrical connector includes a mobile part, a guide rail that is transverse to the front-rear direction (XX?), for transversally guiding the mobile part, and a ramp system such that, when the mobile part is guided by the guide rail, the ramp system pushes the rear grid against the mat seal so as to compress the mat seal.
