Electrical plug connector - has poly-flex circuit into which ends of contact pins are plugged

摘要

The electrical plug connector has contact pins (2) fixed to a housing (1) in a given arrangement whose contact ends (5) lie in one plane and on which a polyflex circuit (Fig 2,3,4) is plugged which comprises a flexible thin plate (7) of isolating material with holes (6) edged by conductive rings (8) for connecting the pins (2). Each ring (8) is connected via a track (9) to a first edge (11) of the plate (7) where contact pins (10) project from the plate (7). Additional pins (2) with associated additional rings (8), tracks (9) and projecting pins (10a,b,c) go to the opposite edge (12) of the plate (7). The plate (7) is folded and has dimensions such that the first (10) and additional pins (10,a,b,c) lie in parallel on the same side of the housing (1). ADVANTAGE - By keeping smallest possible distance between connection pins of circuit and connector number of contacts can be considerably increased.
