Title: Device and method for latching separable insulated connectors
Inventor: HUGHES DAVID C
IPC: H01R13/53
Filed: 2008-04-22
Abstract: A latching mechanism for joining separable insulated connectors employs a plurality of finger contacts (11) to create an interference fit with an electrode probe (1) of an elbow connector (21). The electrode probe enters a cylindrical grouping of the plurality of finger contacts and a projection (13) causes an interference fit between the finger contacts and' the electrode probe. The finger contacts latch the connectors (21, 31) together and require a removal force greater than the latching force required to latch the connectors. The latching mechanism provides a multi-point current path between an elbow connector and a power transmission or distribution apparatus and provides operator feedback to indicate the latching of the mechanism.
