  • Publication number: 20250038437
    Abstract: A compact, reliable receptacle connector. The connector comprises terminals held by an assembly housing. A shell surrounds mating ends of the terminals and engages with the assembly housing. A housing is disposed outside the shell and partially encloses a rear of the shell. A board lock is also partially embedded in the housing. Such a configuration enables the connector to have a single shell and reduces the risk of relevant movements between the shell/board lock and the housing when, for example, a component is inserted into or removed from the connector. The connector can comprise a front seal disposed around a portion of the shell that extends beyond the housing, and a rear seal disposed between a top of the housing and a bottom of the shell. Such a configuration can effectively block ingress of environmental contaminants from both the front and the rear.

  • Publication number: 20220136590
    Abstract: A stepless speed changer applied to a CVT gearbox is provided which comprises a speed changing mechanism, a clamping mechanism, and a speed regulating mechanism, and the speed changing mechanism is mounted on a shaft body and connected with a power input mechanism and a power output mechanism respectively along both sides of the shaft body; the clamping mechanism is distributed along an axial direction of the shaft body and located at both sides of the speed changing mechanism, and the clamping mechanism guarantees the speed changing mechanism transmits a torque normally by use of pressurization of a first hydraulic system; the speed regulating mechanism is located at a radial end of the shaft body and combined with the speed changing mechanism, and the speed regulating mechanism achieves speed change of the speed changing mechanism by use of acceleration and deceleration control of a second hydraulic system, which solves the structural problems of the existing CVT gearbox, for instance, low input torque, lim
