Abstract: A fixation device for fixing a contact element within a connector. The device includes a housing defining a contact element receptacle for receiving a contact element and a support face defining a deflection surface for supporting the contact element within the housing, and a clamping device for clamping the contact element in the contact element receptacle with a clamping force directed in a clamping direction. The deflection surface is oriented at an angle relative to the clamping direction such that it deflects a component or portion of the clamping force acting upon the contact element in a direction transverse to the clamping direction.

Abstract: An electrical connector includes a housing having a cavity extending between a mating end and a cable end. The housing has contact channels extends along channel axes. The electrical connector includes a contact assembly received in the cavity having contacts received in the corresponding contact channels. Each contact has a retention feature. The electrical connector includes a TPA device received in the cavity that extends along an axis parallel to the channel axes. The TPA device includes locking lobes each configured to interface with the retention feature of the corresponding contact to hold the contact in the housing. The TPA device is rotatable about the axis relative to the housing between a clearance position and a blocking position. Each locking lobe interfaces with the corresponding retention feature in the blocking position.

Abstract: A connector assembly enables electrically safe disconnection and separation because it is possible to secure an interval between the point of time of separation of interlock terminals and the point of time of separation of power terminals when connectors are separated. The connector assembly can implement two steps of cutting power after restricting a lever in a locked state and then completely disconnecting connectors by additionally operating the lever by including an intermediate locking mechanism that restricts the lever for disconnecting connectors in a state in which interlock terminals of two connectors are separated from each other but power terminals of the two connectors are in contact with each other to disconnect and separate female and male connectors.

Abstract: A brake controller is provided as an inline plug between the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle or trailer. The electronics including an accelerometer and wireless communication radio are potted within a brake controller housing package. There is no conventional display or input controls on the exterior of the brake controller package. Input settings, and possibly output messages, are communicated through a smartphone or similar software or hardware application. The brake controller can identify a hazard lighting condition and avoid braking the towed vehicle during the hazard lighting condition, and can also distinguish when braking during signaling a turn, using the turn signals of the towing vehicle.
