ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle electric cigar lighter in the form of a metal receptacle shell is adapted to receive a lighter plug, and a combined assembler and connector plug is attached to the rear of the shell. A bimetallic clip in the shell engages and energizes a usual lighter plug inserted therein. A fastener stud carries the bimetallic clip, and has a shank projecting from the rear of the shell. The combined assembler and connector plug includes a hollow molded plastic plug body having a recess adapted to receive a female electrical connector receptacle on the vehicle's wiring harness. The assembler and connector plug further comprises a contact prong member disposed in the recess of the plug body and adapted to mate with the female electrical connector receptacle. The prong member has a base portion which is molded or embedded in the plug body, and the base portion has an opening that receives the shank of the fastener stud, by a force fit. The arrangement is such that the plastic plug body is secured to the receptacle shell by the fastener stud, which latter also effects electrical connection between the bimetallic clip and the prong member.
