Abstract: A key retention system for electrical connectors which includes a connector (12) including a lower backshell (42) having at least one generally T-shaped slot (51) extending therein from a side face (52) thereof for receiving a generally T-shaped key (61). Slot (51) and key (61) are configured to permit key (61) to be easily inserted into slot (51) in the correct orientation and to prevent key (61) from rotating or from moving laterally or longitudinally within slot (51) to any appreciable extent. Locking means comprising a projection (81) extending inwardly from the cover (43) for the lower backshell (42) is positioned to extend into the slot when cover (43) is mounted to lower backshell (42) to lock key (61) in position within slot (51).

Abstract: A flexible power distribution system comprises a modular electrical connector assembly (10) has complete plug-in connections between a power supply and a ''mother'' board (12) or backplane which carries a plurality of ''daughter'' PC boards (13). The system includes a male contact member (30) in a receptacle (15) adapted to be received within a female contact member (45) in a plug (14), when the plug (14) is slidably inserted into the receptacle (15). Respective guard means are provided to prevent one's finger from being inserted into either the plug (14) or receptacle (15), respectively, to contact the female and male contact members (45, 30) therein; and the respective guard means mesh therebetween when plug (14) is inserted into receptacle (15). Male contact member (30) includes a plurality of relative long and narrow compliant beam contact elements (35), each of which is provided with a coined spherical tip (36) engaging the female contact member, thereby compensating for any torsional stresses on the contact elements. Means are provided for interlocking adjacent modules together in a side-by-side stacked array on a respective PC board.

Abstract: A cable terminating cover retention system having two terminating covers (68, 70), each having leg means (72, 74) proximate the endwalls (90, 92) thereof, cooperate with an aperture (45) in a terminal support block (44) of connector housing (28). As conductors (56) are terminated on insulation displacement contacts (20) by moving the terminating covers (68, 70) toward the terminal support block (44), the leg means (72, 74) complement each other to substantially fill the aperture (45) and engage the sidewalls (102) of the apertures (45) in a first interference fit. As termination of the conductors (56) is completed, each leg means (72, 74) enters a recess or aperture (124, 126) in the other cable terminating cover (70, 68) and engages a protrusion (128, 130) therein in a second interference fit. The second interference fit is between the protrusion (128, 130) and an area (116) of the leg means (72, 74) not previously deformed by the first interference fit and retains the cable terminating covers (68, 70) in the terminated position.

Abstract: An electrical coupler (10a, 10b) for interconnecting two modular telephone plugs (150) includes a housing (12, 12') having two mating faces (14, 14') with openings (16, 16') for receiving the two modular telephone plugs (150). The terminals (80) within the coupler comprise wire (78) which is formed to include two resilient portions (90, 100) disposed adjacent to the modular plug openings (16, 16'). A terminal subassembly is disclosed wherein a plurality of solid conductors (78) are aligned side-by-side and a web (70) is molded over the span of wires (78) such that when the wires (78) are cut to the desired length, the integrally molded web (70) forms a terminal subassembly for ease of installation of the terminals within the housing (12, 12').

Abstract: A connector assembly (10) having an all plastic retention system has a housing (16, 18) in which tines (40) extend from a surface (36) thereof axially along contact receiving passages (38, 58). Each split frusticonical tine (40) has two tine members (42, 44). A transverse rib (54) extends along a surface (36) of the housing between adjacent tine members (42, 44) of adjacent tines (40). Each tine member (42, 44) has a pair of vertical ribs (50) extending along the exterior surface thereof upward from the surface (36) of the housing and sharing a portion of its volume with the transverse rib (54). The vertical ribs (50) and transverse rib (54) promote flow of plastic into all regions of the mould during moulding and support a contact (52) upon insertion thereof. A contact (52) inserted from the rear face (34) causes tine members (42, 44) to move radially outward until a retention bead (72) passes through an orifice (48) thence tine members (42, 44) return to an unbiased position and contact (52) is secured in the connector assembly (10) as retention bead (68) is positioned between an annular shoulder (74) and the ends (46) of tine members (42, 44).

Abstract: An electrical connector assembly (10) of a plug (14) and receptacle (12) also includes resilient shunts (52, 150, 250) between selected pairs of adjacent terminals (42) within one of the connectors (14). The shunts (52, 150, 250) are deflectable out of commoning engagement upon full mating of the connectors by cam posts (90) of the mating connector (12), and resume commoning if the mating connector begins to become disengaged. Shunts (52, 150, 250) are secured along a surface (104, 214b) of a dielectric member (40, 140, 240) to form a locking and shunting assembly insertable into housing aperture (36) between rows of terminals (42) and can also lock the terminal latching arms (34) in place retaining the terminals in the housing (26). Each shunt has a fixed end (54, 152, 252) either staked to the dielectric member (40, 140, 240) at recessed joint (120) or latched in place against stop surfaces in all directions resulting from a simple sliding assembly maneuver. A free end (56, 158, 258) is held against the surface (104, 214b) but movable therealong so that an outwardly bowed spring section (58) between the fixed and free ends includes a bridging member (62, 162) engaging and commoning a pair of terminals (42) until deflected by a cam post (90) and compressed towards surface (104, 214b). Methods of securing the shunts to the dielectric member are disclosed.
