CONNECTOR AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A connector comprises a housing of insulating material and a metal plate attached to a surface of the housing. This surface is provided with a plurality of pegs of insulating material and the metal plate is provided with a plurality of fixation hols co-operating with the pegs to attach the metal plate to the housing. The passage of each fixation hole of the plate is smaller than the cross-section of the corresponding peg of the housing. The plate is further provided with an entrance hole for each fixation hole. This entrance hole debouches into the fixation hole ad has a passage larger than the cross-section of the corresponding peg. The connector is manufactured in that the metal plate is placed on said surface with the entrance holes receiving the pegs with play, whereafter the metal plate is moved along the surface such that the pegs are forces into the fixation holes.
