ABSTRACT:
During the performance of service on many machines, it is often necessary to remove one component from another necessitating the removal of any wiring clips or harnesses that may be attached thereto. In many instances, removal of these wiring clips creates a laborious and/or an unduly complicated task. The present invention provides a connector assembly that includes a mounting portion that has a groove defined therein that receives a tapered abutment member defined by a clip assembly. The groove has tapered end portions on each end thereof that interact with the tapered abutment member to allow easy and selective removal and assembly of the clip assembly and mounting portion depending on the type of service required.
