Radially resilient electrical connector and method of making the same

摘要

A radially resilient electrical connector includes a cylindrical sleeve with spaced notches at one end circumferentially offset from or axially aligned with spaced notches at an opposed second end. A contact member has ends on contact strips engaged with the notches at the ends of the sleeve to axially offset the ends of the contact strips from each other and to form each contact strip into a hyperbolic shape. The ends of the contact strips are fixedly mounted in the notches.
