Terminal connector

Abstract

A first terminal connector (300) comprises a component member (302) comprising a component member surface (322) with a first terminal post (306) oriented substantially perpendicular to the component member surface (322), and a cap member (304) comprising a cap member surface (324) and a first borehole (310) oriented substantially perpendicular from the cap member surface (324), the first borehole (310) including a bevel volume (328) configured to compress a plurality of windings from one or more wires (332, 334a, 334b) wound around the first terminal post (306) together between the component member surface (322) and the bevel volume (328) when the first terminal post (306) is inserted into the first borehole (310). A second terminal connector (500) comprises a component member (502) comprising a component member surface (522), and a cap member (504) comprising a cap member surface (524), wherein a first groove (550) is positioned on one of the component member surface (522) or the cap member surface (524), a first tongue (556) protruding from the other of the cap member surface (524) or the component member surface (522), and the first tongue (556) including a bevel volume (528) along a ridge of the first tongue (556) configured to compress one or more wires between the first groove (550) and the bevel volume (528) of the first tongue (556) when the first tongue (556) is inserted into the first groove (550).
