Abstract:
A connector, for electrically connecting a battery charger with a battery connector of a battery pack having an engaging member, comprising:a connector body having a proximal end, a distal end, an upper face and a lower face; a latching member protruding a predetermined length from the proximal end of the connector body, for engagement with the engaging member of the battery pack; a cantilever keep place, for tensionably connecting the battery connector and the latching member, disposed on the lower face of the connector body, having a first end connected to the distal end of the connector body and a second end extending a predetermined distance beyond the proximal end of the connector body, wherein the second end is situated along a horizontal plane above and parallel with a longitudinal axis of the lower face, and the predetermined distance the second end extends beyond the proximal end of the conductor body is greater than the predetermined length the latching member protrudes from the proximal end of the connector body; and a connection portion disposed at the proximal end of the connector body, which protrudes beyond the proximal end of the connector body for electrical connection of the connector with the battery connector.
