ABSTRACT:
A quick detachable electrical connector is disclosed in which a resilient hood on the receptacle connector member surrounds the forward portion of the plug connector member. Lugs on the plug connector member snap into recesses in the hood to latch the connector members together. The hood is connected to the body of the receptacle member by longitudinally extending ribs. In one embodiment of the invention, the hood is circular and is rotated to ride up over the latching lugs to release the lugs from the recesses, thereby allowing the connector members to be disengaged. In a second embodiment, the hood is formed in the shape of a parallelogram, the short sides of which are squeezed to cause the hood to release from the latching lugs on the plug connector member.
