AIRCRAFT CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY
The invention relates to a connector assembly ( 1, 100 ) for connecting a motor to the cable ( 5,103 ) of a strut fixing the motor to an aircraft wing. A male part ( 2, 101 ) includes pins ( 7, 107 ) and female part ( 3, 102 ) lugs ( 10, 108 ). In an embodiment, the pins extend radially around the axis (A) of a cable ( 5 ) provided with the pins. In another embodiment, the pins extend in a parallel position to the axis (A′) of the cable ( 103 ) provided therewith and in a perpendicular direction with the cable provided therewith.
1 . A connector assembly for aircraft, capable of establishing a connection between an engine and cable of an engine's fixing mast to an aircraft's wing, the connector assembly being located in the position of a separating partition between the engine and the mast, the said connector assembly comprising a male part supporting male contacts, and a female part supporting female contacts, the male contacts capable of being connected to the female contacts, wherein the male contacts are spikes and the female contacts are terminal lugs, each spike being capable of passing through the terminal lug.
2 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , further comprising a firewall nucleus forming a core of the male part and/or of the female part of the said connector assembly.
3 . A connector assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the firewall nucleus is a nucleus made of silicon.
4 . A connector assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the firewall nucleus is a nucleus made of rubber.
5 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the spikes extend in a radial manner in relation to a longitudinal axis (A) of a cable supporting the said spikes.
6 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the spikes extend in parallel to a longitudinal axis (A′) of a cable supporting the said spikes, the terminal lugs extending perpendicular in relation to a cable supporting the said terminal lugs.
7 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the terminal lugs are made in flexible material.
8 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the cable fitted with female part of the connector assemble is located on the engine side, the cable fitted with the spikes being located on the mast side.
9 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , wherein it comprises means for fixing a terminal lug to a spike.
10 . A connector assembly according to claim 9 , wherein the fixing means are comprised of bolts.
11 . A connector assembly according to claim 1 , wherein it is triple phased.
