ELECTRICAL EDGE CONNECTOR

摘要

Edge connector for a printed circuit board (35) comprises a housing (1) having terminals (21) therein. Terminals have spaced apart spring arms (26) which contact opposite surfaces of the circuit board (35). The terminals (2) are in a first position when the circuit board (35) is inserted into the housing (1) such that the spring arms (26) are spaced apart and the circuit board can be readily inserted. After initial insertion, the circuit board (35) and terminals (21) are moved relative to the housing (1) and camming surfaces in the housing (1) cam the arms (26) towards each other and against the circuit board (35).
