Abstract:
An environmentally sealed connector for connecting a spring-loaded terminal to a flexible circuit includes a spring-loaded terminal and a connector cap having a terminal cavity receiving a portion of the spring-loaded terminal therein in order to electrically couple the spring-loaded terminal to the flexible circuit. A connector base is releasably coupled to the connector cap and covers the terminal cavity and the portion of the spring-loaded terminal therein. An elastic member is disposed between the connector cap and the connector base in sealing engagement therewith and surrounds the terminal cavity and the portion of the spring-loaded terminal.
