Abstract: An electrical connector assembly includes a pair of electrical connectors for electrically connecting to one another to close an electric circuit. The assembly further includes a connection indicator attached to one or more of the electrical connectors. The connection indicator generates a feedback, in response to the electrical connectors being one of connected to one another and disconnected from one another. The connection indicator is separate from the electric circuit, and the feedback is at least one of a radio frequency signal (RF signal), an electronic signal, a visible light, and an acoustic signal.

Abstract: A method includes plugging a plug into a socket, wherein the plugging includes pushing the plug into the socket at least up to a point that a latch clicks into the plug and locks the plug in place. Pressing down on a lever that rotates around an axis causes the lever to be pushed down. This results in the latch moving away from the plug and unlocking the plug from the socket, to thereby allow the plug to be separated from the socket.

Abstract: A connector-equipped electrical wire includes a connector housing in which a cavity is formed and a terminal-equipped electrical wire inserted into the cavity. In a first state before full fastening by a full fastening portion is achieved and in which a first cavity communicates with a second cavity corresponding thereto, a first portion of the terminal-equipped wire is configured to pass through the second cavity and fit into the first cavity, and a second portion of the terminal-equipped wire is fitted into the second cavity. In a second state in which full fastening by the full fastening portion is achieved, when observed in an axial direction of the cavity, a regulatory surface of an inner surface of the second cavity approaches closer to the second portion than when in the first state.

Abstract: A fitting device includes a connection terminal, a tubular housing that covers an outer circumference of the connection terminal, a rubber ring attached to an outer circumferential surface of the housing, and a retainer that prevents the rubber ring from being dislodged. The retainer includes a tubular main body portion, and a plurality of arm portions extending from the main body portion in a front-rear direction. Each arm portion includes an extension portion extending from the main body portion toward the rubber ring in the front-rear direction, a first projection protruding from the extension portion toward an inner circumferential surface, and a second projection protruding from the extension portion toward the outer circumferential surface of the housing. An amount of insertion of the second projection into the recess is larger than a gap between a protruding end of the first projection and the inner circumferential surface.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a window assembly having a solderless electrical connector includes forming a curved transparent substrate and applying a conductive ink having a thermal degradation temperature onto a surface of the curved transparent substrate. The method further includes applying an adhesive onto the surface of the curved transparent substrate adjacent to the conductive ink and optionally onto the applied conductive ink, and curing the adhesive at a temperature below the thermal degradation temperature of the conductive ink to form the solderless electrical connector with the solderless electrical connector being in electrical contact with the applied conductive ink.

Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe a flexible connector mechanism that may be used to form an electrical connection and/or a communication link between one or more devices. The flexible connector mechanism may comprise one or more interface components that may each comprise one or more contact portions. The interface components may be configured to be selectively coupled to one or more corresponding components of a coupleable object. The flexible connector mechanism may also comprise a flexible portion that enables the interface components to be manipulated along one or more planes or axes. The flexibility of the flexible portion may enable the interface components of the flexible connector mechanism to be adjusted into, and maintained in, an optimal (or operable) position when coupled to a coupleable object in motion.
