Spring-loaded resistor terminal

摘要

This disclosure depicts structure and method for terminating an electrical resistor for a television CRT which could be used for arc suppression, voltage division or the like. The structure is disclosed in a preferred form as comprising a cylindrical rod of predetermined length, diameter and resistance. On at least one end of the rod, an electrically conductive coil spring is constricted in firm electrical and mechanical connection with said rod. At least a number of the turns of the spring are mechanically joined to prevent the spring from being torsionally stressed open so as to release the rod. Also disclosed is a method of making an electrical-mechanical termination.
