Abstract

See full text

A quick release electrical connector comprises a plug part and a socket part. The socket part has an external screw thread and a coupling sleeve is captive on the plug part. Connected to the plug part is a number of internally screw threaded portions which are adapted to engage the screw thread on the socket part. The coupling sleeve has a surrounding axially movable retaining sleeve which in one position retains the screw threaded portions in engagement with the socket screw thread. In another position the retaining sleeve allows the screw threaded portions to move radially outwards out of engagement with the socket screw thread allowing quick separation of the plug and the socket part. The connector includes a thrust washer to prevent relative rotation between the plug and the coupling sleeve in the event of vibrations causing inadvertent unscrewing of the socket part.
