Patent attributes
An assembly is disclosed and comprises a pair of connectors, each including a body which securely receives in electrically-conducting relation the end of a welding cable and a sleeve which, in use, forms a grip for the body and receives same in a manner which provides access to the receiver for the cable end at one end and provides access to the body at the other end. The pair has: an initial position wherein they define a longitudinal axis and wherein the sleeves are disposed other end-to-other end, aligned with the axis; a primary lock, which locks the connectors against longitudinal movement relative to one another upon rotation of the connectors relative to one another about the axis from the initial position and permits electrical conduction between the bodies when the connectors are so locked; and a secondary lock which selectively arrests relative rotation of the connectors about the axis.
