发明名称 Float mounting an electrical connector
摘要 The electrical connector (4) is mounted to float in a back panel (P2) of a drawer containing a power supply distribution module. The panel has a T-shaped cut out (178) therein, the cut out having a transverse part (182) and a perpendicular part (180). The housing (100) of the connector (4) has upper flanges (144) projecting from opposite sides thereof, lower flanges (146) also projecting from opposite sides thereof, and a top flange (150). The upper flanges (144) disposed forwardly of the lower flanges (146) and the top flange (150). In order to mount the connector (4) to the panel (P2), the upper flanges (144) are inserted through the transverse part (182) of the cut out (178) to an extent limited by the top flange (150) and the connector (4) is then moved along the perpendicular vertical part (180) of the cut out, so that the upper flanges (144) engage the front face of the panel (P2) thereby cooperating with the lower flanges (146), which engage the rear face of the panel (P2), to retain the connector in the cut out (178). An adjustable latch bolt (176) may be provided in the top flange (150), to prevent the connector (4) returning to such an extent that the upper flanges (144) are aligned with the transverse part (182) of the cut out so that the connector (4) can fall from the panel (P2).
