Flat cable connector

摘要

A flat cable connector including a plug and a receptacle each having two parallel portions over which flat cables are wrapped. A slotted frame receives the parallel portions of the receptacle to retain the cable therein. The parallel portions of the plug are forced between the parallel portions of the receptacle extending beyond the frame so that the bared tracks of the flat cables on the two connector members frictionally engage each other. Hooked arms on the plug latch the plug to the receptacle. The plug may also carry spring members on spring contacts rather than a flat cable. Other forms of flat cable connectors are also disclosed.
