<p>An electrical connector (26, 28), bridge connector (22, 24) and opening accessory (16, 18, 20) to protect the contacts on flexible circuitry (60, 110, 112) of such connectors from being damaged by the sharp edges of a printed circuit board like member (10, 12, 14) wherein the opening accessory is provided with spaced-apart cam members (34, 36) that spread apart cam bearing portions (82, 84) of the connectors outside flexible circuitry mounted thereon. Alternatively, the electrical connector (146) can be provided with cam members (168, 170) to spread apart electrical contacts (191) forming a part of the flexible circuitry (184). Also, to allow electrical interconnection between two printed circuit board like members (336, 338), a supporting member (356, 360, 362) having flexible circuitry (350) mounted thereon can be positioned at any place on either printed circuit board like member.</p> |
