<p>A contact receptacle for substrate to circuit board connection comprises a receptacle for an edge of the substrate and a post for insertion in a board aperture integrally joined by an intermediate section comprising a resilient portion [34,] adapted to allow relative movement between the receptacle [32] and post [36] and extensions [40, 56] of the receptacle and the post which overlap in sliding contact to provide a short electrical path between the substrate and the board. The resilient portion may comprise a generally hair-pin spring form [46, 48, 50] having a bight [50] spaced substantially from the post [36]. In an alternative the resilient portion [144] is of reduced width and of sinuous form, with the intermediate section embedded in the elastomer [22].</p> |
