<p>An electrical connector (2) comprises a connector plug part (4) and a connector receptacle part (6), each part comprising a molded dielectric insert (10, 56) and a metal cylindrical shell (8, 54) within which the insert is fitted and retained. The inserts (10, 56) have passageways (26, 62) therethrough in which are secured matable electrical terminals (64, 28) and an integral hood (68) which extends beyond the mating face (58) of the receptacle insert (56) and the shell (54) of the receptacle part (6) also has a hood (82) which extends forwardly beyond the receptacle insert hood (68). The hood (82) of the receptacle shell (54) extends over the external surface of the plug shell (8) when the parts (4, 6) are mated and threads (90) on the external surface of the receptacle shell hood (82) are engaged by threads (52) provided on the internal surface of a metal coupling ring (48) which is rotatably mounted on the plug shell (8) by a retention spring (50) secured onto the plug shell (8). A pin (94) is mounted adjacent a projection (92) on the coupling ring (48), and the pin (94) cooperates with cam and recess sections in the form of detent sections (106, 102) adjacent projection (92) of the coupling ring (48) to provide an audible, tactile and visible indication of a fully-mated condition of the plug (4) and receptacle (6) parts when the pin (94) has been disposed in one of the recess sections.</p> |
