ABSTRACT:
An improved hermetically sealed heat resistant connector and cable assembly is provided which comprises an elongated heat resistant connector body having a central passageway extending throughout the length thereof, a sheathed cable containing a plurality of spaced leads slidably disposed in one end of the passageway with the leads projecting from the cable in the passageway, and a dielectric element in the form of a disc having openings extending therethrough within which the leads are disposed, the element being held in the connector body passageway against the cable. A heat resistant connector plug is slidably disposed in the opposite end of the passageway. The plug has a spaced parallel number of hollow pins extending along the length thereof and aligned with the openings of the dielectric element, the pins receiving the leads as they emerge from the dielectric element. The pins are crimped around the leads for proper connective purposes. Locking nuts are threadably received over opposite ends of the body and a first swaging cone is disposed around the cable between one of the nuts and the adjacent body end. A second swaging cone is disposed around the plug between the second nut and the adjacent body end. The lock nuts and cones hermetically seal the cable and plug in place in the connector body, thus hermetically protecting the cable leads. The assembly is easy to make and has substantial advantages over prior art assemblies with respect to cost, speed and interconnection of components and durability at elevated temperatures in liquid or gaseous environments.
