SHIELDED COVER FOR A QUICK-RELEASE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR

摘要

This invention relates to a shielded cover (19) for an electrical connector part. The connector part (10) has a hollow, substantially cylindrical, open-ended hub portion (11) with at least one radially protruding keying member (12) on its outer surface and a flange (13) axially spaced from the keying member by a predetermined distance. …The cover (19) has a cap-like structure and comprises an open end, an imperforate end wall (20) and a cylindrical sidewall (21). The sidewall edge margin defining the cap open end has a continuous radially inwardly directed flange (22) which forms an opening which is less than the cross-section of the hub (10) taken through the keying member (12). The cap also has a depression (23) in the inner surface of its cylindrical sidewall (21) so that the inner diameter of the cap at that portion is greater than the hub cross-sectional diameter taken through the keying member (12). …Metal lining means (24) are affixed to the inner surface of the cap end wall (20) so that a portion (26) of the lining means extends partway along the cap sidewall (21). The dimension of the lining means are such that the lining means make adequate contact with the end portion (17) of the connector part when the cover (19) is in place.
