Abstract

The electrical connector assembly of the present invention includes (1) a receptacle for supporting the two pairs of first electrical connector elements approaching; A plug of two electrical connector elements; (3) two shorting elements assembled in the receptacle to electrically short-circuit two pairs of first electrical connector elements respectively; and (4) a locking element, which is locked in relation to the plug A first position and, when the plug is engaged with the socket, movable to a second position in which the locking element forces both short-circuiting elements back to their non-shorting positions simultaneously. Thus, it is possible to provide an electrical connector assembly having a locking member which can greatly improve working efficiency and which can provide good connection operability even when interconnecting two pairs of electrical contacts.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrical connector assemblies. In particular, the present invention relates to an electrical connector assembly in which the plug is provided with locking elements capable of shorting the electrical contacts of the socket to each other when the socket and the plug are not properly connected to each other, and when the socket and the plug are properly connected to each other Release the short circuit. Background technique [0002] An airbag system includes an airbag module and an electrical or electronic control system assembled in a concealed compartment of a vehicle cab. The control system is connected to the airbag module through a wiring harness. A typical electrical plug and socket connector assembly is provided on the wiring harness to facilitate electrical interconnection of the airbag assembly and the control system after individual assembly. [0003] This connector assembly has a so-called sh...
