ABSTRACT:
A connector retainer is illustrated for use with at least two inline sets of right angle electrical connector pins whereby the connector retainer flexibly partially encloses and interlocks with the connector and has an extension thereof inserted in the right angle portion of the electrical pins wherein the inserted portion is of a larger diameter than the distance between the inline sets of pins. Such a portion can fit in the right angle portion between the sets of the pins and provide a hinge-type function without being able to move either horizontally or vertically thereby retaining the connector in contact with the electrical pins.
