Definitions
- This invention is related to the field of electrical connectors and more particularly to a coupling ring for use in a circular electrical connector.
- the plug has a coupling ring attached to the plug housing near the mating end.
- the coupling ring has threading projections, on the inside to engage the threads on the periphery of the receptacle housing.
- a known coupling ring has a mounting end 2 and a mating end 4.
- a plurality of latching fingers 6 located at the mounting end 2 extend inwardly in a cantilever fashion from the periphery toward each other. The latching fingers 6 cooperate with an annular projection on the plug housing as the coupling ring 1 is urged over the plug housing from the mating end 2.
- a threaded section 12 extends toward the mating end 15. This threaded section is designed to receive a back shell (not shown) to secure terminated wires inside contact receiving cavity 18.
- an annular securing projection 16 extends outward and is profiled to have a lead in surface 17 facing the mating end 15 and a locking shoulder 21 facing the wire receiving end 13.
- a flange 19 extends around the outer periphery near the annular securing projection 16 to form a small recess therebetween for accommodating partially annular locking projections 26 which will be described below.
- the partially annular projections 126 also extend around a portion of the inner diameter 130 and three spaces between them around the inner diameter 130. Each of these partially annular projections 126 has a lead in surface 138 facing a mounting end 136 and a locking shoulder 140 positioned opposite the lead in surface 138 and facing a mating end 134.
- the coupling ring 120 is formed of a material which is somewhat flexible so that it can deform from a circular shape as shown in Figure 8 to a non circular or clover like shape as shown in Figure 7 when urged onto the plug housing 10.
