Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electrical connector having a male connector assembly of an insulating material for housing a plurality of pin contacts, and a female connector assembly of an insulating material, for housing a plurality of socket contacts for mating with the pin contacts. A circuit-to-circuit isolation distance is at least twice a connector mating distance, when the male and female connector assemblies are mated. A terminal position assurance cap, insertable from an end of the female connector assembly opposite an insertion face for the male connector assembly enables a maximized circuit-to-circuit isolation distance. The terminal position assurance cap assures that the socket contact is retained in the socket contact chamber, by blocking a flexible integral retention clip against the socket contact. The connector further includes an arrangement for removing the socket contact from the female connector assembly.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An electrical connector, comprising a male connector assembly of an insulating material for housing a plurality of pin contacts, each pin contact being disposed in an individual chamber having solid sidewalls and an opening at an insertion face thereof, and a female connector assembly of an insulating material for housing a plurality of socket contacts for mating with the pin contacts, each socket contact being disposed in a tower element having soli…
