Definitions

  • This invention relates to electrical connector plugs, and more particularly to spring latch hand plugs which lock the plug in a receptacle such as a panel or board and which is provided with means on the rear of the plug for manually releasing the plug from the board.
  • This application is related to onepiece plug connectors such as disclosed in my U.S. Pat. No. 3,275,973 issued Sept. 27, 1966, and my application, Ser. No. 558,043 June 16, I966.
  • HISTORICAL BACKGROUND In present day electrical equipment, it is common practice to employ connector panels or boards wherein connector plugs are inserted selectively into receptacles to connect and disconnect various control circuits. It is desirable that the plug be easily removable from the connector panel by a pull on the rear portion thereof but not removable by a push on the front or tip portion of the contact member.
  • snap latch plugs have been provided with a detent system that includes a spring detent member and a detent locking means that are complex, and generally include multiple parts which are expensive to manufacture and to incorporate in assembly in the plug body. If the number of parts has been reduced, there still has been the problem of providing a detent system which is capable of allowing the plug to be readily inserted and removed from a plugboard, to maintain the plug securely in position, and to hold the plug in position upon a force being applied to the front or tip portion thereof.
  • OBJECTS AND SUMMARY It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a one-piece snap latch plug which is simple and economical to manufacture and which can be blanked from a sheet of material by simple stamping operation and which positively locks the plug in the panel or board or the like from being accidentally pushed out or pulled out.
  • a further object of this invention is to provide a snap latch plug with a detent system which is rugged and will retain substantially its original characteristics over a long life.
  • An additional object of this invention is to provide a latch means for a one-piece plug which can be manually operated either by a tool or by hand.
  • Still a further object of this invention is to provide a plug which can be precisely controlled under manufacturing conditions.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide a release mechanism for one-piece plug which requires little force to operate due to the utilization of a fulcrum principle.
  • Still another object of this invention is to provide a spring release latching mechanism for a one-piece plug.
  • this invention relates to a one-piece plug having a manually releasable latching member which in normal position maintains the plug in a block against pull out or pushout.
  • FIG. I is a plan view of the configuration of a piece of material for a plug connector prior to formation thereof;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the plug connector after formation thereof from the material of FIG. 1;
