Abstract: An electrical connector has a plastic body and a blade contact in a terminal cavity in the body. A guard extends across the mouth of the cavity over an adjacent edge of the blade. A physical interlock connection holds the guard on the blade edge to shield the blade and prevent an object inserted into the mouth from contacting the blade.

Abstract: An assembly for forming two bridge connections between two contact members has two bridge conductors and two U-shaped spring clips which hold contact arms at the ends of the bridge conductors against contact members to form two separate electrical connections between the contact members. An insulating housing surrounds the conductors and clips.

Abstract: A protective plug assembly for use with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector. The plug assembly is installed over a terminated USB connector and provides additional shielding for the USB connector, thereby allowing the USB connector to be used in military, aerospace, industrial or other applications in which signal degradation is a concern. The plug assembly is easily installed in the field, as the plug adapter assembly may be preassembled during manufacture. The plug assembly also provides sealing for the USB connector which allows the USB connector to be used in environmental conditions which are not conducive to the longevity of an unprotected connector.

Abstract: A backplane connector (2) has a housing (4), an inserted body (6) and a plurality of contacts (10) inside the housing. The inserted body can be swiveled toward the contacts and away from each other. In a mounting position, in which the inserted body and the plurality of signal contacts are swiveled away from each other, insertion of a PCB into the housing is permitted. In a connecting position, the inserted body and the plurality of signal contacts are swiveled toward each other. The inserted body is formed of a plurality of terminal modules which are arranged in lengthwise series alongside one another.

Abstract: A bracket for receiving an external electrical device is provided in this invention. The bracket comprises a frame, a door rotatably positioned on the frame, and a metal shielding fixed on the frame. The door comprises a shaft traversing therethrough. The shaft has a driving portion formed thereon. The metal shielding comprises a spring portion registered with the driving portion of the door. The driving portion of the door deforms the spring portion of the metal shielding when the door is rotated due to insertion of the external electric device into the bracket.

Abstract: A clamp-type adapter (1) for a memory module (2) includes two adapter halves (10), (10′) with similar structures for snapping over a lower portion (20) of the memory module, which has a plurality of conductive pads (22), (22′) on opposite surfaces thereof. Each adapter half includes an elongate housing (12), a row of alternating outer conductive contacts (14) and inner conductive contacts (14′) interposed with grounding blades (13), and a shield (16) covering the housing. The contacts and the grounding blades are insert molded in the housing. The housing comprises an inner portion (121) and an outer portion (122). Each outer/inner contact comprises a contact portion (142)/(142′) and a tail portion (146)/(146′). The contact portion is exposed to the outside from a bottom surface of the inner portion for engaging with a corresponding contact of the card edge connector.
