Miniaturised pin-socket type - has cylindrical pin with enlarged and ogival shaped end receivable in squared section hole socket

摘要

The pin includes a cylindrical part(3) which ends in a part (4) which is slightly enlarged and ogival in shape. Socket (2) comprises a hole(5) whose section is square, the radius of the circle inscribed in this hole having a dia. equal to the max. dia. of the ogival end(4) of pin(1). The end of hole(5) facing towards the pin is chamfered so as to facilitate guiding and penetration of this pin. Plugging the pin into the socket causes bending, ensuring pressure and self-cleaning of the contacts. Firm contact and efficient pressure are thus obtained between the various elements of the plug, each socket being in contact with the corresponding pin along two generating lines.
