An electrical connector (1) includes an insulative housing (2) and a plurality of terminals (3) received in the housing. The housing has a front end with an opening for receiving an end of the FPC in engagement with contacting portions of the terminals, and a back end with a plurality of T-shaped protrusions (202), and a side end with two latching arms (21). An actuator (4) is pivotably mounted relative to the housing for floating movement between a first position allowing free insertion of the FPC into the opening and a second position biasing the FPC against the terminals. A shielding (5) is engaged with the back end and two latching arms of the housing for protecting the connector from Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) during transferring signals between the FPC and the PCB by the connector. The shielding can also reinforce the strength of the housing.

One aspect of the invention pertains to a stiffener for a computer housing so as to increase the rigidity and strength of the computer housing.

A heat exchanger, particularly for charge air or exhaust gas, performs heat exchange between a first fluid and a second fluid, and includes heat exchanging guides for the first and second fluids, the guides being separated from each other in a core, the core having a plurality of flow channels through which the first fluid flows, and a housing that receives the flow channels and through which the second fluid flows. The heat exchanger also includes at least one compartment lid, which is flow-connected to the flow channels, and a base that is attached to the compartment lid and that is equipped with one or more passage openings for flow channels. The compartment lid is attached to the base via one or more connections which connections are bolted connections and / or a slotted crimping.

An electrical connector (100) comprises a first insulative housing (10) comprising a base section (110) extending along a first direction and defining a front end and a rear end thereof in a second direction vertical to the first direction. A mating section (120) extends forward from the front end of the base section in the second direction and a mating cavity (121) is defined in the mating section and opened forward. A receiving chamber (140) is provided in the rear end of the base section (110) and opened rearward. A plurality of terminal grooves (130) is arranged along the first direction and extends along the second direction. A second insulative housing (20) is received and retained in the receiving chamber (140) of the first insulative housing (10) with a plurality of passageways (210) corresponding with and aligning with said terminal grooves (130) in the second direction. A plurality of terminals (30) is retained in the terminal grooves and the passageways.

Apparatus, systems and methods for characteristics of glass components through use of one or more coatings are disclosed. The coatings are typically thin coatings, such as thin film coatings. The coatings can serve to increase strength of the glass components and / or provide durable user interfacing surfaces. Accordingly, glass articles that have received coatings are able to be not only thin but also sufficiently strong so as to resist damage from impact events. The coated glass articles are well suited for use in consumer products, such as consumer electronic devices (e.g., electronic devices).

A housing for electrical devices such as connectors, circuit breakers, and fuse panels. A cable outlet port member is separate from the housing to provide unidirectional resistance to movement of a cable relative to the housing. The non-integral relationship permits the members to be replaced in the event of damage. A busbar formed by a stamping and bending operation is also disclosed for use in combination with conventional circuit breakers.

An alcohol fuel cell sensor and the resultant alcohol breath tester assembly. The disclosed housing creates an alcohol breath tester assembly that protects the electrode sensor from liquid ingress, maximizes the sample contact with the platinum electrode surface, and provides a smooth path facilitating laminar flow of the sample through the sensor. This, in turn, provides good flushing of the volume without creating eddies or other turbulence. Additionally, the housing can utilize a vapor barrier layer in the assembly and restricts the layer from touching the electrode surface.
