ABSTRACT:
A tubular body supports an insulator member at its front end which carries a center contact. An electrical lead is connected to the center contact and extends through the tubular body rearward and out of the apparatus. The insulator member and support structure supports a shell or wall spaced from and surrounding the tubular body with an opening facing rearward. A plurality of angularly spaced apart latch openings extend through the shell. A plurality of latches are pivotally supported to the front portion of the tubular body for movement through the latch openings. A sleeve with a cam movable between forward and rearward latching and unlatching positions is located around the tubular body. In the forward position of the sleeve, the cam and a spring move the latches outward through the latch openings and in the rearward position of the sleeve the latches are moved inward through the latch openings. An electrical lead is electrically coupled to the latches by way of the tubular body.
