Abstract

1,091,626. Two-part couplings. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. March 2, 1966, No. 9251/66. Heading H2E. Each connector of a two-part coupling for making connections to a thermocouple comprises a hollow casing 14, 46, an insert member 15, 47 removably insertable in the casing, a pair of contact members 21 and 22, 60 and 61, mounted on the insert by pins 19 and 20, 50 and 51, and resilient members 23 and 24, 54 and 55. To assemble the connector, e.g. the socket connector the contacts are first mounted on the insert and the cable 10 is passed through an aperture 17 in the rear of the casing, the bared ends of each of the leads then being inserted between one of the resilient members and the adjacent contact. The insert member is then pulled back into the casing, the contacts pivoting on the pins against the action of the resilient members to trap the bared leads firmly between them and the contacts. The contacts have projections 25 and 26 which snap behind shoulders 27 and 28 of the outer easing to hold the contacts and the insert in the casing. The contacts are formed with extensions 29 and 30 which when pressed together lift the projections from the shoulders and enable the insert to be removed. The contacts of the socket connector are formed with a half-round groove (Fig. 4, not shown), in which the pins of the plug connector slide, the pins being biased into the groove in one ease by spring 76 which is attached to the side of socket contact 22 and pushes against the casing, and in the other case by spring 74 which engages a circumferential groove 75 in pin 60 which also acts to hold the coupled parts of the connector together. Undue bending of the lead is prevented by a round-ended screw which clamps the cable insulations (Fig. 5, not shown). In a modification, the leads are clamped to the contacts by a rubber member secured to the insert, having the outline of a butterfly. When the insert is located in the casing the rubber member is compressed to hold the leads against the contacts.
