Definitions
- the invention relates to electrical connectors of the type having a wire connecting portion providing a slot which receives a wire in an interference fit thereby to penetrate any insulation on the wire and establish permanent electrical connection to the wire core.
- wire connecting portion is made from thin metal stock, it may be desirable to support the extensions to obviate the possibility of distortion or collapse by wire insertion.
- the present invention consists in an electrical connector having a wire connecting portion of sheet metal formed into a channel section having channel walls and a base, where each said channel wall is provided with an axial extension bent inwardly across the channel base toward the axial center of said connector, and opposed edges of said extensions define therebetween a wire receiving slot, characterized in that the base is provided with a lateral slot underlying at least a portion of each said axial extension, and that each said axial extension contains a downwardly projecting lug seated in the lateral slot whereby to retain a wire inserted along the slot.
- opposed edges of the lugs define therebetween a continuation of the wire receiving slot.
- the connector is stamped and formed from a single piece of sheet metal stock and comprises a conventional tab receptacle contact portion 11 extending from a wire connecting portion 12 and a crimping portion 13.
- the wire connecting portion 12 is of channel section, opposite sidewalls 14,14' of which are bent up from a base wall 15 and provided at opposite axial ends with axial extensions 16,16' and 17,17' respectively which are bent inwardly towards each other across the basewall so that their free, opposed ends define between them wire receiving slots 18 and 19, respectively.
- Lugs 21,21' extend respectively from the bottom edges of the extensions 16,16' and are trapped in a slot 22 which extends transversely across the base wall 15, opposed edges of the lugs 21,21' providing a continuation of the wire receiving slot.
- a wire can be inserted completely along the slot 18 until it abuts against the base wall 15 where the slot edges will prevent any wire strands escaping from the slot.
- the integrity of the connector may be improved.
