Definitions

  • An electrical connector comprising a female member having the configuration of a sleeve, said sleeve being provided with resilient inwardly turned clamping portions symmetrically disposed on opposite sides of an axial plane and separated by an axially extending gap; and an elongated male member axially insertable in said sleeve, said male member having a blade-shaped body extending gen erally in said axial plane and provided with a linear contact edge and with retaining ledges, extending outwardly away from said edge along opposite sides of said plane, said clamping portions engaging said ledges of said body and urging said edge of said male member against said female member along a line of contact, said members being conductive at least along said line of contact.
