  • Patent number: 9564269
    Abstract: A fast-mounting capacitor is composed of a capacitor (1) and a plug-in sheet (10). A fixed rod (22) extends from the lower end of the shell of the capacitor (1). The fixed rod (22) has a fixed slot (18). The plug-in sheet (10) includes an insulating strip (11) provided above. Plastic elastic clamps (12) and a connection part (13) are connected to the lower part of the insulating strip (11). Fixing clamping strips (17) are provided on the inner wall of the capacitor mounting hole (15). The capacitor can be plugged in conveniently, and can effectively serve as an insulator, therefore it can prevent conducting leakage of electricity to the box of electrical equipment so as to cause accident when abnormal leakage occurs to the capacitor.

  • Patent number: 7597580
    Abstract: A connector assembly has a first part with an interior for receiving right-angle electrical terminals through an insertion end. Wire-connect segments of the terminals seat within cradle-like members aligned in sets of rows extending across the width of the interior. Electrical mating segments of the terminals extend perpendicularly from the wire-connect segments. A second part of the connector assembly has chambers for receiving the mating segments of the terminal and a compartment with inner cradle-like members aligned in sets of rows across the compartment. The cradle-like members of the first and second parts are arranged to correspond in position to each other when the second part is assembled on the first part so the wire-connect segments are clamped within the cradle-like members, reducing vibrational and other motion of the terminals within the assembly.
