LEVER CONNECTOR AND CONNECTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18600011 titled 'LEVER CONNECTOR AND CONNECTOR DEVICE

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a connector with a housing and a lever that can be displaced to attract a mating connector. The lever has a cam groove for a cam pin of the mating connector to pass through, and a protrusion that blocks a through-hole in the housing when the lever is in a certain position.

Key Features and Innovation:

Housing with a through-hole for passing a cam pin
Lever attached to the housing in a displaceable manner
Lever attracts mating connector by being displaced
Cam groove in lever for cam pin of mating connector
Protrusion on lever blocks through-hole in housing

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in various electrical and mechanical connectors where secure and reliable connections are required.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for a connector that can securely attract a mating connector and prevent accidental disconnection.

Benefits:

Secure and reliable connection
Prevents accidental disconnection
Easy to use and operate

Commercial Applications: The technology could be applied in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and electronics for various connector applications, enhancing safety and efficiency.

Prior Art: Readers interested in prior art related to this technology could start by researching patents in the field of electrical connectors and mechanical fastening systems.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in connector technology, particularly in the field of secure and reliable connections.

Questions about Connectors: 1. What are the key features of a reliable connector system? 2. How does this technology improve upon existing connector designs?

Original Abstract Submitted

A connector includes: a housing and a lever attached to the housing in a displaceable manner and configured to attract a mating connector by being displaced from a first position to a second position relative to the housing wherein the housing has a through-hole H for passing a cam pin of the mating connector through a cam groove formed in an arm of the lever and the lever is movable from the second position to a third position after moving from first position to the second position relative to the housing and has a protrusion that blocks the through-hole H when the lever is at the third position.
