Abstract: The present invention relates to a plug connector arrangement with a plug, having first catch arms arranged parallel to the plug-in direction and a secondary locking, as well as a mating plug with shoulders, behind which catch lugs engage in a final plugged-in position on the first catch arms. The secondary locking is released from a pre-catch position by the mating plug during the plug-in process and, on reaching its final catch position, is held back by the first catch arms until the catch lugs thereof are locked behind the shoulders of the mating plug.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a connector (1) for flat flex cables (2), with a housing (3), in which is provided: at least one introduction opening (4) for one end of a flat flex cable, spring contacts (5) for connecting the at least one flat flex cable (2) with contacts (6) or with another flat flex cable (7) and at least one strain relief (8). The strain relief (8) has a slide (9), which is introduced into the introduction opening (4) above the flat flex cable (2), the flat flex cable (2) being bent by a rib (10) on slide (9) into a recess (11) in the bottom of introduction opening (4) until the slide (9) locks into its final position on housing (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a connector for joining two conductors, including a first semi-housing and a second semi-housing that can be moved from a position in which said second semi-housing is in a pre-locked state with the first semi-housing into a final locked position. The inventive connector also comprises an electrically conducting clamp which contacts and interconnects the two conductors in the final locked position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plug-in connector for connecting two flat strip conductors, including at least one spring element which provides the required normal contact power for the connection of the two flat strip conductors. The spring element contacts the two flat strip connectors and produces the electric contact between the two flat strip connectors.

Abstract: The invention relates to a connector arrangement, between a flexible ribbon cable (1) and a component (5) of an electrical circuit, whereby the flexible ribbon cable (1) has a stripped conductor region on one side of the end for connection, comprising a housing (2) in which the flexible ribbon cable end is clamped and in which an elastic element (3) subjects the stripped end to pressure. The component (5) comprises a socket (4) for the housing (2), in which the housing (2) may be clipped and with contact strips (6) arranged therein against which the stripped regions of the flexible ribbon cable (1) are pressed, when the housing (2) is in the terminal position thereof within the socket (4).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for electrically connecting a conductor to a contact, according to which the electrical conductor that is coated with an insulation is first inserted between two legs of the contact, whereupon a welding device is placed against both legs and the welding process is carried out by turning on the welding current. The insulation of the electrical conductor is destroyed due to the heat delivered during the welding process, resulting in a permanent mechanical and electrical connection between the conductor and the contact.

Abstract: The invention relates to a clamping connector for at least two aligned flexible ribbon cables, said connector including a base body, spring elements for pressing together the surfaces to be brought into contact, and a counter body. The base body and the counter body can be fixed to each other in a pre-locking position and a final locking position. The respective skinned partial regions of at least two flexible ribbon cables are pressed against each other in order to bring the same into contact. The sides of the base body and the counter body, facing the flexible ribbon cables, are provided with complementary recesses or projections by which means the flexible ribbon cables can be guided to form a cable grip.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for automatic response to computer system misuse using active response modules (ARMs). ARMs are tools that allow static intrusion detection system applications the ability to dynamically increase security levels by allowing real-time responses to detected instances of computer misuse. Several classes of ARMs exist which allow them to interface with several types of network elements found within a computing environment (e.g., firewalls, web servers, Kerberos severs, certificate authorities, etc.). The ARMs, once defined, are deployed in a “plug and play” manner into an existing intrusion detection system within a computing environment. A user (e.g., system administrator) may then configure the ARMs by linking them to specific computer misuses.
