Abstract
A connection assembly for securing electrical components used with power equipment comprises a housing and connector cover forming an upper arrangement of the connection assembly. The housing and connector cover form a cavity therebetween for supporting electronics disposed within the cavity. The connection assembly also comprises a lower arrangement used to secure the connection assembly to a surface of a power equipment device and a hinge assembly that forms a rotational connection between the upper arrangement and the lower arrangement.

A connection assembly for securing electrical components used with power equipment comprising:
- a housing and a connector cover forming an upper arrangement of said connection assembly, the housing and connector cover creating a cavity therebetween for supporting electronics;
- a lower arrangement used to secure the connection assembly to a power equipment device;
- and
- a hinge assembly forming a rotational connection between said upper arrangement and said lower arrangement.
A connector assembly for use with a power equipment device, the connector assembly comprising:
- an upper arrangement comprising a housing having a cavity for supporting electronics;
- a lower arrangement for securing the connector assembly to a surface on a power equipment device;
- a hinge assembly forming a rotational connection between said upper arrangement and said lower arrangement;
- and
- an isolation assembly formed between said upper arrangement and lower arrangement such that when said upper arrangement and lower arrangement are rotated by said hinge assembly to a closed position, the isolation assembly is in solid contact between the upper and lower arrangements.
A connector assembly for use with lawn tractor, the connector assembly comprising:
- an upper arrangement comprising a housing and a connector cover having a cavity for supporting electronics;
- a lower arrangement for securing the connector assembly to a surface on a lawn tractor;
- a hinge assembly forming a rotational connection between said upper arrangement and said lower arrangement;
- an isolation assembly formed within said upper arrangement and lower arrangement such that when said upper arrangement and lower arrangement are rotated by said hinge assembly to a closed position, the isolation assembly generates solid contact between the upper and lower arrangements;
- the isolation assembly comprising at least one annular projection surrounded by a damper extending from said lower arrangement and a boss for contacting said damper extending from the said upper arrangement, the boss and damper being in contact when said upper and lower arrangements are rotated about said hinge assembly to a closed position, the isolation assembly forming a positive contact between the upper and lower arrangements when the connection assembly is in said closed position.
