Abstract: A device includes an electrical connector coupled to the end of a flex circuit. The connector includes interior ribs that engage slots in the flex circuit, with the ribs and slots separating adjacent contact pads on the flex circuit. The contact pads are exposed portions of conductive traces on the flex circuit. Other portions of the conductive traces may be covered by a dielectric material, such as a non-conductive ink. The ribs provide an increased isolation path between the contact pads.

Abstract: A safety plug device that is disposed in a high-voltage battery to interrupt power supply. The device includes a female housing, a male housing, and a grip part. The female housing includes a terminal part and the male housing is equipped with a fuse and is removably coupled to the female housing. The grip part is slidable on the male housing in forward and backward directions, is simultaneously coupled to the male housing in a vertical direction, and is equipped with an interlock pin connected to an interlock connector at a rear end thereof. In particular, the grip part slides forward to release the interlock pin and to be coupled to the male housing, to allow the grip part and the male housing to be removed in an upward direction to interrupt the power supply.

Abstract: A receptacle assembly for a vehicle charging inlet is provided having a base with apertures formed through, an external receptacle extending from the base in a first direction for receiving a charging cable connector, and an internal receptacle extending from the base in a second direction, opposite the first direction, for receiving a plurality of wires from a wire harness. The internal receptacle defines an internal cavity having at least one terminal receptacle formed about one of the apertures and at least one fuse receptacle. The internal receptacle includes wire channels for routing a wire having an inline fuse from the terminal receptacle to the fuse receptacle and from the fuse receptacle to a wire outlet. The inline fuse is received by the fuse receptacle.

Abstract: A component-equipped-holder mounting structure having an electric component; a holder holding the electric component; and a holder mounting portion. The electric component includes a housing and a terminal extending therefrom. The holder includes a holder body, a pair of holder arms extending therefrom and configured to position the housing therebetween, the holder arms holding the electric component displaceably such that the electric component is positioned in a longitudinal direction of a mating terminal to be connected to the electric component, and a locking portion protruding from the pair of holder arms and configured to be brought into locking engagement with the housing. The holder mounting portion includes an accommodating portion accommodating therein a mating terminal with the holder slidably inserted into the holder mounting portion.

Abstract: A power plug having backup fuse tube, its major objective is that, when a fuse tube is damaged, a replaceable backup fuse tube can be obtained readily and promptly. The power plug has a backup fuse tube with pins and a casing, lead-out wires. A cavity is provided in the casing. The cavity is covered with a matching backup fuse tube holder. On a backside of the backup fuse tube holder a retainer is provided, and a backup fuse tube is placed in the retainer.

Abstract: A service disconnect assembly for an electronic module includes a fuse carrier having a holder configured to hold a fuse for the electronic module, where the fuse carrier has an attachment finger extending from the holder. The attachment finger has a peg. The service disconnect assembly also includes a service disconnect cover having a hood forming a channel, with the hood having a window exposing a portion of the channel. The attachment finger is received in the channel to couple the fuse carrier to the service disconnect cover. The service disconnect cover is slidable with respect to the fuse carrier between an initial position and a final position, wherein the hood moves with respect to the attachment finger as the service disconnect cover is moved between the initial and final positions. The peg is aligned with the window in the final position. A handle is rotatably coupled to the service disconnect cover and the handle has a catch aligned with the window.

Abstract: A fastening device for a low-profile fuses of vehicle, which can achieve simple and robust coupling of the low-profile fuse while enabling the fuse to be easily connected to or disconnected from a vehicular junction box, is disclosed. The fastening device serves to connect or disconnect the low-profile fuse to or from the junction box via upward/downward movement thereof while maintaining coupling between the low-profile fuse and the junction box, and includes a socket integrally formed at an upper surface of the junction box and having plug coupling recesses and a fuse connecting recess indented in the upper surface of the junction box, terminals being disposed inside the fuse connecting recess so as to be exposed to the outside, and a plug vertically movably coupled in the socket while being coupled laterally with the low-profile fuse to enable connection or disconnection between the low-profile fuse and the terminals.

Abstract: A power plug having backup fuse tube, its major objective is that, when a fuse tube is damaged, a replaceable backup fuse tube can be obtained readily and promptly. Said power plug having a backup fuse tube comprises: pins and, a casing, lead-out wires; wherein, a cavity is provided in said casing, on said cavity is covered with a matching backup fuse tube holder, on a backside of said backup fuse tube holder is provided with a retainer, and a backup fuse tube is placed in said retainer.

Abstract: A breaker switch includes a connector housing having plug-in contacts and a socket housing having sockets. The connector housing has a fuse chamber having an opening through which a fuse can be inserted into the fuse chamber. A lever pivotably mounts the housings such that the connector housing is movable with the lever relative to the socket housing between starting and final positions. In the starting position the housings disengage such that the contacts and sockets disengage. In the final position the housings engage such that the contacts and sockets engage. A cover is movably connected to the connector housing to move between opened and closed positions. The cover opens the fuse chamber opening when opened and closes the fuse chamber opening when closed. When the cover is opened the cover prevents the connector housing from moving to the final position thereby preventing the contacts and sockets from electrically connecting.

Abstract: Staking and soldering are eliminated to improve workability in assembly. A connection structure for a resistive element, in which the resistive element having lead wires at both ends is connected to a connection section of a base. A cover is fixably mounted on the base. Further, fixation claws capable of snap-holding the resistive element by elastic force and elastic tongues along lead wires are arranged on the cover. When the cover is fixed to the base, the elastic tongues are in elastic contact with the connection section through the lead wires to press the lead wires to the connection section.

Abstract: There is provided a fuse block 3 having an insertion port 7 into which a dark current fuse 11 is inserted and adapted to hold the dark current fuse 11 in a mount position, and the fuse block includes a guide surface 8 which is formed within the insertion port 7 in such a manner as to continue from the mount position for the dark current fuse 11 for contact with the dark current fuse 11 and arms formed at positions lying at lateral sides of the dark current fuse 11 in such a manner as to face the insertion port 7 so as to be able to hold the dark current fuse 11 therein when the dark current fuse 11 is in contact with the guide surface 8.
