Abstract
A filter connector has a ferrite barrel with a rectangular bore therethrough. The configuration of the bore closely matches the substantially rectangular cross sectional configuration of an electrical connector received within the bore. The connector has a pair of wings upstanding from a base thereof. A single gate or a cooperating pair of gates is(are) attached to one or both of the wings. When folded the gate(s) close the bore through the barrel.
Claims4
A connector for a filter connector arrangement having a ferrite barrel with a bore therethrough and an overmold material which encapsulates said ferrite barrel, the connector comprising a connection assembly, a base, a pair of wings upstanding from the base, and a gate attached to one of the wings, the gate having a configuration substantially the same as a cross-section of said bore, the gate being foldable with respect to the one wing to close the bore through the barrel to substantially prevent said overmold material from passing into said ferrite bore to affect said connection assembly when the connector is received in said ferrite bore.
A connector for a filter connector arrangement having a ferrite barrel with a bore therethrough and an overmold material which encapsulates said ferrite barrel, the connector comprising a connection assembly, a base, a pair of wings upstanding from the base, and a gate attached to each of the wings, the gates together having a configuration substantially the same as a cross-section of said bore, the gates being foldable with respect to the wing to which they are attached to a position which closes the bore through the barrel to substantially prevent said overmold material from passing into said ferrite bore to affect said connection assembly when the connector is received in said ferrite bore.
A filter connector arrangement comprising:
- a ferrite barrel having a substantially rectangular bore therethrough;
- an overmold material which encapsulates said ferrite barrel;
- and
- an electrical connector having a substantially rectangular cross-sectional configuration in a plane perpendicular to an axis of the connector, said connector comprising a connection assembly, a base, a pair of wings upstanding from the base, and a gate attached to one of the wings, the gate having a configuration substantially the same as a cross-section of said bore, said gate being foldable with respect to the one wing to close the bore through the barrel to substantially prevent said overmold material from passing into said ferrite bore to affect said connection assembly when the connector is received in said ferrite bore.
