Continuous molded plastic components or assemblies

摘要

A continuous electrical connector or component part of plastic or metal manufactured by injection molding of axial segments in sequence. A novel in-line interlocking structure is provided for interlocking adjacent segments. The interlocking structure comprises overmolded end units wherein the next overmolded part fills in a hole or recess left in the previous molded part. Electrical or mechanical parts may, if desired, be simultaneously incorporated in the units of each segment during the molding process.
