Abstract: AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY An electrical connector assembly (100) includes a coupling ring (50) for connecting together two connector housings (10, 20) and self-contained means for resisting rotation of the coupling ring relative to the connector housing (20) to which it is rotatably mounted. The resisting means includes coupling ring (50) and connector housing (20) respectively, frusto-conical surfaces (72, 82) with balls (74) and sockets (84), in faced relation, the balls being adapted to be received in and rotated to succeeding sockets. The compressible plastic is such that as the housings are drawn into tight engagement the balls on the coupling ring engage the plastic surface on the other connector housing (10), causing the balls and surfaces to elastically compress. The tapered shoulders enhance engagement therebetween to increase the frictional forces resisting the vibration and radially locates the coupling ring with respect to the connector components to minimize hammering in shock prone environments resulting from radial clearances therebetween.
