CAPTURE CONNECTOR FOR ACTUATED LOCKING DEVICES

Aspects described herein generally relate to a capture connector an actuated locking device. The actuator mechanism includes a capture connector having a body and at least one contact element connectable to the body, wherein each contact element comprises a first contact surface extending in a first direction and a second contact surface extending in a second direction different from the first direction. The actuator mechanism further includes a shape memory wire extending in a third direction adjacent to the capture connector, and at least one termination component fixedly coupled to the shape memory wire. The shape memory wire has at least one of a first actuation state and a second actuation state, and in the first actuation state, the shape memory wire generates an actuator force in the third direction, which is normal or oblique to the first direction of the first contact surface. 本文描述的各方面般涉及致动式锁定装置的捕获连接器。致动器机构包括捕获连接器，该捕获连接器具有主体和可连接到该主体的至少个接触元件，其中每接触元件包括在第方向上延伸的第接触表面和在不同于第方向的第二方向上延伸的第二接触表面。致动器机构进步包括在第三方向
