Cam lock spark plug wire connection

A spark plug connector (10) includes a cap (22) that mounts a terminal (30) for relative rotation with respect to a lock body (50) and outer heat shield (12). The lock body has an oval opening (58) aligned about a snap ring (48) of the terminal. When the cap member and terminal are in one rotated po...

Zusammenfassung:	A spark plug connector (10) includes a cap (22) that mounts a terminal (30) for relative rotation with respect to a lock body (50) and outer heat shield (12). The lock body has an oval opening (58) aligned about a snap ring (48) of the terminal. When the cap member and terminal are in one rotated position, the snap ring is allowed to expand and be either installed or disconnected from the spark plug post (20). The oval minor axis is dimensioned such that when the cap and terminal are rotated approximately 90°, the snap ring abuts the lock body (50) about the oval opening and is prevented from expanding to lock the terminal (30) to the spark plug post (20).
