ROTATABLE SAFETY LOCKING SYSTEM FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

Abstract: the disclosure presents a connector with a safety locking system (sls) for secure mating and unmating with a counter-connector. the connector housing carries electrical terminals designed to establish contact with counter-terminals in the counter-connector through an insertion and extraction movement. the sls features a rotatable locking edge that can be positioned in an unlocking state to allow extraction for unmating or a locking state to prevent extraction and maintain the connection. the sls locking edge abuts against a surface of the counter-connector to secure the connection. this innovative connector design enhances safety and reliability in electrical connections.
