CONNECTOR INTERFACE FOR A CHARGER DEVICE

摘要

A charger (100) provides a self aligning, compliant connector with multiples degrees of freedom. The charger (100) comprises a housing having an aperture (132) through which a charger connector (110) is mounted via an interior interface formed of convex protrusions (115) and concave recesses (135) that provide a predetermined range of rotational motion and self-alignment for the charger connector (110) within the aperture (132) thereby facilitating mating with a corresponding connector of a radio. Compliant pads (120) apply a compressible force to further control the rotational motion of the charger connector (110).
