Abstract:
This invention provides with an electric wire press fitting method, in which an aluminum core wire of each of two aluminum wires are stranded to each other and inserted into a sleeve, and the aluminum core wire of each of the two aluminum wires are compressed and swaged along with the sleeve, wherein the sleeve includes a main body made of copper or a copper alloy; and the compression is performed on the aluminum core wire of each of the two aluminum wires at a compression ratio of 50 to 85% by the main body.
Abstract:
A twist-on wire connector having a finger friendly cushion cover that covers not only the normal hand gripping region but at least part or all of the normal non-hand gripping region of the twist-on wire connector so that regardless of the way the twist-on wire connector is grasped the user fingers engage the cushion cover to inhibit finger and hand injury and fatigue from repeated securement of twist-on wire connectors as well as twist-on wire connector with enhanced gripping.
Abstract:
A push-in wire connector has an enclosure that includes at least two wire entry ports that face in opposite directions. A terminal assembly is disposed within the enclosure and includes a busbar positioned between the wire ports. A spring member biases inserted conductors into engagement with the busbar.
Abstract:
An electrical connection for securing multiple wires within an interior of an electrical connector barrel includes the use of a spacer which is received within the barrel, and which includes guiding spaces to position the plurality of wires.
Abstract:
An open-face electrical wire connector for forming an electrical connection to a wire connector lug wherein the wire connector lug, which is free of any sealant can be brought into engagement with another portion of a housing, which carries a sealant, to cause the sealant to flow around the wire connector lug and the electrical connection therein for on-the-go formation of a sealant covered electrical connection.
Abstract:
A push-in wire connector has an improved busbar suitable for use with either solid or stranded wire. The connector has a housing with a hollow interior. At least two openings in the housing provide access to the interior for the ends of wires inserted into the connector. A busbar is mounted in the housing. The busbar defines at least two wire-crossing axes extending from an entry edge to an exit edge and a thickness between a top face and a bottom face. The busbar has a wire-receiving pocket extending below the top face on each of the wire-crossing axes and a wire-engaging protrusion extending above the top face on each of the wire-crossing axes.
Abstract:
A push-in wire connector for electrically interconnecting multiple wires together is disclosed to have a guide and lock element, which is mated with a conduction and retention element and assembled inside the enclosing space of an enclosing element. Multiple wire insertion channels are provided inside the connector for receiving the insertion of wires. Each of the insertion channels includes a main port section led in by an insertion port for guiding the insertion of a stripped end of a wire. A wire engagement segment follows the main portion section formed by the surrounding of a conduction plate at the bottom, an insertion channel separation wall at one or both sides, and the resilient spring legs on the top. The wire engagement segment prevents the bending or deflection of the inserted wire end thereby ensuring secure and good electrical conduction between the inserted wires.
Abstract:
A connector apparatus for connecting a plurality of electrical wires of a standard size is described. A connector body having a cylindrical shape including an open end for accepting the wires, a closed end, an interior and an exterior surface is shown. The connector body connects the wires and retains the wires in the interior when a twisting motion is applied to the connector body relative to an axis of the wires. The connector body is constructed of a transparent material that allows for visual inspection of the interior. A color marking for indicating the standard size of the wires is applied to a portion of the connector apparatus such that the interior remains visible for the visual inspection. A conductive coil can be positioned in a portion of the interior. The conductive coil has dimensions suitable for securely contacting the wires and aiding in the connecting of the wires.
Abstract:
An insulation cap of a wire joint of a joined electrical wire, the insulation cap including a cap main body for receiving the wire joint being formed by joining cores of a plurality of covered wires and an electro-conductive sleeve, and a flexible fastener provided on an inner wall of the cap main body for fastening the wire joint by contacting a rear end of the electro-conductive sleeve thereon. The flexible fastener is formed as an integral part of the cap main body by fastening a molding die through a hole provided at an opposite end of a joint insertion end of the cap main body. A plurality of flexible fasteners are provided axial symmetrically to extend toward a direction of inserting the wire joint from a base formed as an integral part of the inner wall of the cap main body.
Abstract:
A liquid-cooled armature bar end fitting-to-strand brazed connection. The end fitting is comprised of a main body and a cover, and defines a cavity, a bottom wall of which is defined in part by the cover. An armature winding bar strand package including solid strands and hollow strands arranged in a tiered array extends into the end fitting so that at least the free ends of the hollow strands extend beyond the bottom wall, into the cavity. The side wall of the cavity is spaced from the hollow strands. A braze alloy joins the strands to each other and to the end fitting. The braze alloy forms an isolation layer over the free ends of the solid strands and over the said bottom wall of the cavity to a depth above a horizontal junction between the main body and the cover.
