Sealed connector assembly

A sealed connector subassembly for receiving at least one terminal with an associated terminated conductor, said sealed connector subassembly comprising:

• a housing having at least one terminal receiving channel extending from a terminal entry wall toward an opposed mating wall;
• said housing having resilient arm means extending within said terminal receiving channel for retaining the terminal within the terminal receiving channel;
• said housing including sleeve means extending axially outwardly from said terminal entry wall for defining a seal receiving cavity;
• a connector cover having at least one aperture for receiving said terminal;
• a seal having at least one aperture for receiving said terminal disposed within said housing seal receiving cavity between said housing terminal entry wall and said connector cover;
• said connector cover including terminal position assurance means cooperating with said housing terminal retaining means for securing the terminal within the terminal receiving channel;
• said housing and said connector cover including cooperating latching means for securing said connector cover to said housing in a preassembled condition of the sealed connector subassembly;
• and
• said housing and said connector cover including cooperating locking means for securing said connector cover to said housing in a final assembled condition.

A sealed connector including a plurality of terminals, each terminal terminating an associated conductor, said sealed connector comprising:

• a housing having a plurality of spaced apart terminal receiving channels extending from a terminal entry wall toward an opposed mating wall;
• said housing having resilient arm means extending within said terminal receiving channels for retaining one said terminal within each of the terminal receiving channels;
• said housing including sleeve means extending axially outwardly from said terminal entry wall for defining a seal receiving cavity;
• a connector cover having a plurality of spaced apart apertures each for receiving one said terminal;
• a seal having a plurality of spaced apart apertures, each for receiving one said terminal, said seal being disposed within said seal receiving cavity between said housing terminal entry wall and said connector cover;
• said connector cover, said seal and said housing including cooperating keying means for keying said housing and said seal and said connector cover;
• said connector cover keying means cooperating with said housing terminal retaining means for securing the terminal within the terminal receiving channel;
• and
• said housing and said connector cover including cooperating locking means for securing said connector cover to said housing.

A sealed connector including a plurality of terminals, each terminal terminating an associated conductor and having at least one locking window, said sealed connector comprising:

• a housing having a plurality of spaced apart terminal receiving channels extending from a terminal entry wall toward an opposed mating wall;
• said housing having resilient arm means extending within said terminal receiving channels for retaining one said terminal within each of the terminal receiving channels;
• said housing including sleeve means extending axially outwardly from said terminal entry wall for defining a seal receiving cavity;
• a connector cover having a plurality of spaced apart apertures each for receiving one said terminal;
• a seal having a plurality of spaced apart apertures, each for receiving one said terminal, said seal being disposed within said seal receiving cavity between said housing terminal entry wall and said connector cover;
• said connector cover, said seal and said housing including cooperating keying means for keying said housing and said seal and said connector cover;
• said connector cover including an elongated D-shaped keying member and said seal and said housing including corresponding D-shaped keying passageways for receiving said connector cover D-shaped member;
• said housing resilient arm means being disposed for engagement with said connector cover elongated D-shaped member for supporting a locking finger of each arm means within the terminal locking window for securing the terminal within the terminal receiving channel;
• and
• said housing and said connector cover including cooperating locking means for securing said connector cover to said housing.
