ABSTRACT:
A locking pivot connection for removable ejector latches for an electrical connector comprises a pair of opposed pivot pins located on each end of the connector. Each pivot pin comprises two opposite flat sides and two opposite curved sides, the thickness of the pivot pin measured between the flat sides being less than the thickness of the pivot pin measured between the curved sides. A pair of circular pivot cups are located on opposite sides of the ejector latch, and a pair of entry slots on opposite sides of the ejector latch join the outer edge of the ejector latch with the pivot cups. The entry slots have a width slightly larger than the thickness of the pivot pin measured between the flat sides of the pivot pin to allow the ejector latch to be slid onto the pivot pins in a direction generally parallel to the plane of the flat sides of the pivot pins. The ejector latch may be locked onto the pivot pins by rotating the latch to skew the entry slots relative to the flat sides.
