Abstract:
1. An electrical connection cable strain relief device comprising: a strain-relieving element disposed about a portion of at least one cable having at least one electrical lead extending out from said strain-relieving element; at least one positioning pin disposed to extend from said strain-relieving element, said at least one positioning pin having a longitudinal axis parallel to a longitudinal axis for said electrical lead extending out from said strain-relieving element, and said at least one positioning pin having a non-circular cross section; and a contact partner including at least one hole disposed through a portion of said contact partner, said at least one hole having an inside wall sized so that said at least one positioning pin is compression fit in said at least one hole by the non-circular cross section of said at least one positioning pin having at least one outside dimension along said longitudinal axis of said at least one positioning pin that is larger than a corresponding inside dimension of the wall of said at least one hole; wherein at least one electrical conductor disposed on said contact partner can be attached for electrical connection to a portion of said at least one electrical lead extending out from said strain-relieving element.
