Preset bend providing strain relief in an electrical connector

摘要

A preset bend resulting in a strain relief in a flexible conductor strip that interconnects relatively displaceable first and second electrical contacts that are originally relatively oriented in first spaced apart positions and moveable to second more distantly spaced apart positions. The preset bend includes a substantially straight first leg extending substantially perpendicularly to an axis of relative motion between the first and second interconnected electrical contacts and feeding into a substantially hemi-circular- curve, which continues into a second leg extending toward the second electrical contacts in their spaced apart position.
