FEMALE AND MALE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS REQUIRING LOW INSERTION FORCES

摘要

A female electrical connector (50) has a wire attachment segment (70) and a receptacle segment (76). A pair of apertures (100) are juxtapositioned within the receptacle segment circumferentially separated from one another by solid portions of the receptacle segment therebetween. A male electrical connector (52) has a wire attachment segment (300), a bulged segment (306) and a shaft segment (308). The male electrical connector has a longitudinal channel (322) positioned within the shaft segment. Considered individually or together, these electrical connectors substantially reduce required insertion forces.
