ELASTOMERIC CONNECTOR

摘要

An elastomeric connector may include a non-conductive elastomeric body having a first major side and an opposing second major side. A plurality of conductive elements may be embedded within the elastomeric body. A first portion of the conductive elements may be arranged in a first contact region of the elastomeric body, and may provide a conductive path from the first major side of the elastomeric body to the opposing second major side in the first contact region. A second portion of the conductive elements may be arranged in a second contact region of the elastomeric body, spaced from the first contact region, and may provide a conductive path from the first major side of the elastomeric body to the opposing second major side in the second contact region. The first and/or second conductive paths may define contact regions that may be of any suitable shape including non-circular shapes such as generally L-shaped, generally V-shaped, generally kidney bean shaped, or any other suitable shape, as desired.
