Abstract: A connector includes a terminal configured to be connected to a wire, a plate-like housing has a terminal accommodating portion configured to accommodate the terminal, the housing having a ceiling wall portion that blocks an upper of a front portion of the terminal accommodating portion and an opening portion which is opened at an upper of a rear portion of the terminal accommodating portion, and a cover configured to cover the opening portion of the terminal accommodating portion when the cover is assembled to the housing. A protruding portion is provided on a front end portion of the cover. The protruding portion presses the terminal located in a primary locking position forward in the front-rear direction to move the terminal from the primary locking position to a regular insertion position when the cover is assembled to the housing.

Abstract: A coupling system and related methods are disclosed. The system has a first plug detachably coupled to a first housing, and a first socket detachably coupled to a second housing. The first socket is configured to receive the first plug. The system is movable between a first configuration wherein the first and second housings are not engaged and a second configuration wherein the first and second housings are engaged and the first plug and the first socket are coupled together.

Abstract: An electrical power strip that may be flexibly configured is provided. The power strip includes a power cord having a plug configured to operably couple with a wall socket. A head block is electrically coupled to the power cord on an end opposite the first plug. The head block having a first outlet socket on one end configured to receive a first external power plug. The head block further includes a first, second and third female electrical connector located on different sides. A power block having a first male connector on a side is electrically coupled with one of the first, second or third female connector. The first power block having a second outlet socket configured to receive a second external power plug. The power block further having a fourth, fifth and sixth female connectors located on different sides.

Abstract: According to example embodiments, a substrate for a power module includes first to third parts spaced apart from each other, where the third part surrounds the first and second parts, and a conductive layer on the first to third parts. A terminal of a first polarity is connected to the first part, and a terminal of a second polarity is connected to the second part. The first and second terminals may be spaced apart from each other and each have a coupling part, a body, and a contact part. The bodies of the first and second terminals may overlap each other. A power module may include the substrate.

Abstract: A multi-core cable assembly is formed by arranging a plurality of cables side by side and connecting the cables to a substrate 30 which is a connection member. The plurality of cables configure flat cable units 10, 20 for each diameter of cables, and ground bars 16, 27 are fixed thereto so as to be electrically connected with a shield member included in the cable. Each of ground bars 16, 27 are electrically connected to a ground pad 31 of the substrate 30. The ground bars 16, 27 adjacent to each other are disposed to be shifted in a longitudinal direction of the cable. In addition, two ground bars 16, 27 interposing the other one ground bar and positioned at both sides thereof are disposed in a position overlapped in the longitudinal direction of the cables.

Abstract: A connector includes: a housing man body including a rib extending frontward; a front holder fitted into the housing main body from the front, and capable of moving from a temporary locking position to a permanent locking position, and the front holder including a through-hole into which the rib is inserted; means for temporarily locking the front holder; and means for permanently locking the front holder. The rib is long enough for a front end of the rib to agree with, or jut out from, a rear end surface of the front holder which is located rearward in an insertion direction of the front holder while the front holder is held in the temporary locking position. The housing main body includes bendable lances for locking their corresponding terminals inserted into the housing main body. The front holder includes lance pressing part restricting the bends of the corresponding bendable lances.

Abstract: A prong structure of a plug is made from a rectangular unfolded strip which decreases waste material to a minimum during manufacture. The prong is formed by doubling over the rectangular strip with a lateral base portion formed at the bottom of both sides thereof. One wing of the lateral base portion of the prong is a lateral tie segment with a clip formed at the end, in which the clip is folded to form a U-shaped groove along the short side of the rectangular strip, for fixing a cord therein by closing the groove from both sides. The other wing of the lateral base portion of the prong is a lateral supporting lug, in which a tongue shaped assistant lug is punched out at the root, so that is can be bent to the clip side to fill the space left by a folded portion of the clipping lug to form a stable supporting base.

Abstract: An electrical connector including a plastic base frame having a plurality of terminal insertion holes, a plurality of terminals respectively inserted into the terminal insertion holes and mounted in the base frame and respectively welded to a cable, a metal cover shell covered on the base frame, and a packing plastic molded on the base frame in flush with the metal cover shell and covered over the terminals and one end of the cable, wherein the base frame has a plurality of flexible projecting strips respectively extended from the periphery of the terminal insertion holes toward the cable and embedded in the packing plastic, the flexible projecting strips being deformed by heat to block up one end of the terminal insertion holes during the molding of the packing plastic; the metal cover shell has filling holes corresponding to the flexible projecting strips for the filling of the sealing plastic fluid.
