1,215,619. Two-part couplings. ILLINOIS TOOL WORKS Inc. 16 Dec., 1968 [18 Dec., 1967], No. 59751/68. Heading H2E. A mounting device for cylindrical electrical components 78 comprises a one-piece moulding including a base portion 16 having means (e.g. a stud 18 formed with resilient leaves) for securing the device to a support surface 72 and a pair of sockets 24, 26 at least one of which is formed in hinged halves and which receive contacts 44, one of which is spring-loaded. The body moulding, which may be of plastics material, may be provided with resilient feet 20 which press against the support surface, and a locating stud 19 to prevent rotation of the device in the aperture 74. As shown in section, each socket 24, 26 is formed with a guide stud 54 and a snap-fastener 52, the semicylindrical socket halves being connected together by a hinge portion 40, 42. The terminals 80 of a cartridge-shaped component 78 are held in blind cylindrical bores in the end faces of contacts 44 under the influence of a spring 46 which also enables cartridges of different lengths to be accommodated. Cartridges of different diameters may also be mounted in the device by the provision of coaxial bores of different diameters stepped into the contact faces. A pair of leads 50 are crimped or soldered to the contacts 44. |
