Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0913888A2] An improved MIL-C-26500 and ARINC type electrical connectors having improved environment resisting wire sealing webs, a hard dielectric face socket insert to detect splayed or bent pins, and a controlled configuration of contact retention clips providing improved electrical performance, easy insertion and removal of contacts and improved assembly, serviceability and maintainability. Additionally, the Mil-C-26500 receptacle circular connector having a set of ground wave springs assembled on the receptacle connector flange to assure a secure ground path on electrically bonded connectors. Furthermore, an ARINC type connector having modularly arrayed insert and a bayonet coupling mechanism. Coupling means includes an axially directed dowel pin member associated with a rotatable locking pin on the plug connector shiftable into a retentive position on the closed ends of receiving ramp grooves formed inside a helical socket on the receptacle connector. Consequently, an indicating means provides a visual examination for a fully coupled plug and receptacle rectangular connectors. <IMAGE>
