ELEKTRISCHER VERBINDER

摘要

An electrical contact adapted for resilient engagement with a substrate having a conductive surface thereon includes a highly deflective preferably spirally looped tail portion arranged to provide relatively uniform contact pressure over its elastic range of deflection. In one embodiment the tail portion is interconnected to a generally tubular head portion having cutting edges thereon for piercing through the insulation of an insulated conductor, a plurality of such electrical contacts being further designed to be contained within a connector housing adapted to interconnect a flat cable to a conductively surfaced substrate and including mounting means on the housing for maintaining the tail portions of the contacts in firm engagement with the substrate while minimizing the force required to assemble the connector to the substrate.
