Abstract: Connectors for fuel pumps in motor vehicles have fuel flowing around them. Apart from the connections for the electrical supply lines, such connectors make contact with further electrical components. Corrosive components in fuels attack the connecting points of the connector to the electrical components, so that this can lead to failure of the fuel pump. The new connector is intended to have connecting points which are no longer attacked by the fuel. By extrusion coating parts of the connector with plastic, the connecting points are effectively protected against attack by fuel. Recesses in the plastic extrusion coating allow fuel to still flow around parts of the connector for cooling, while the regions of the connector which are at risk are separated from the fuel.

Abstract: A pair of thin-walled portions 6 are formed on packing 3 between a seal lip portion 92 and a vent hole in a connector housing 1. A pair of short-shot preventing ribs 8 are located contiguously to the thin-walled portions 6. The short-shot preventing ribs 8 are formed in a mold between the seal lip portion 92 and the vent hole (vent core 5), and a packing material is allowed to reach the vent hole via a narrow gap between each short-shot preventing rib 8 and the connector housing 1. Consequently, the flow resistance of the packing material increases, so that the packing material is preferentially filled in seal lip portions 91 and 92. The short-shot preventing ribs 8 may be formed on the connector housing 1 instead of the mold. The pair of short-shot preventing ribs 8 are formed, and the packing material is allowed to reach the vent hole.
