Abstract

See full text

A connector position assurance (CPA) device for use with the latching mechanism of a two-part connector includes a transverse body portion, two spaced, parallel, flexible side arms, and a flexible, generally Z-shaped bottom arm. The bottom arm has a pivot point which causes the distal end of the arm to pivot upon assembly of the connector and consequent flattening of the bottom arm. The rotation of the distal end releases the CPA from a rest position upon complete latching of the components to permit the CPA to move to an engaged position which locks the latch mechanism.
