Patent ID: 7828606

Claim:
A connector which has an insulating body with at least one borehole ( 21 ) that is elongated along a first direction and with at least one slot ( 61 , 62 ) extending in a second direction that is perpendicular to said first direction and that intersects said borehole, comprising: a contact that lies in said borehole; a detent slider ( 36 ) that is slidable in said slot, said detent slider having first and second projections ( 46 , 47 ), said detent slider being slideable into said slot to a first position wherein only a first of said projections ( 46 ) projects into said borehole, and said detent slider being slidable further into said slot to a fully installed position wherein both of said projections ( 46 , 47 ) project into said borehole; wherein said detent slider includes an activation plate ( 37 ) with opposite plate surfaces, and at least one detent plate ( 39 ) that projects perpendicular to a first of said plate surfaces from said first plate surface; said detent plate ( 39 ) has first and second opposite plate surfaces, and said detent slider has a detent bar ( 42 ) that lies against one side of said detent plate [opposite plate surfaces] along the entire length of the detent bar, with said projections projecting from said bar in a direction away from said detent plate and an opposite side of said detent plate having a longitudinal bar aligned along with said detent bar.
