ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an electrical connector designed to be interposed between male and female plugs provided upon the ends of electrical cords. The connector includes springable arms having shoulders interengaging with shoulders formed on the adjacent ends of the plugs, in such fashion as to lockably engage the plugs and thereby prevent separation of the cords during use. Within the connector there are provided electrical connector elements each having a female and a male end, adapted to mate with the electrical elements of the plugs, thus providing a through electrical connection for the cords, while assuring that they will be held against inadvertent separation. In another form the invention omits the provision of electrical connector elements within the connecting device itself. Instead, a yoke or retainer, usable in both forms of the invention has its spring arms again engaging shoulders on the plugs, with the plugs in this instance interengaging directly as well as being releasably, lockably engaged with the retainer.
