7 Claims. (Cl. 339-213) Matter enclosed in heavy brackets appears in the original patent but forms no part of this reissue specification; matter printed in italicsindicatcs the additions made by reissue.
1 I This invention relates to an electrical connector, and more particularly to a connector of the type which is adapted to be applied and secured to electrical conductors by crimping of a ferrule onto a conductor received therein.
Connectors of the general type of which this invention is concerned, have been in commercial use prior to my present invention and are disclosed, for example, in the application of Stephen S. Buchanan, Serial No. 421,408, filed December 3, 1941, issued as Patent No. 2,379,567 on July 3, 1945, and Serial No 474,935, filed February 6, 1943; and in the application of Carlson and Freedom, Serial No. 459,624, filed September 25, 1942. In the terminals as illustrated in these prior copending applications a ferrule is formed of a size adapted to receive the bare conductor,
e. g., the end of the stranded wire of an insulated I cable, and over this is applied a metal sleeve extended beyond the open end of the ferrule so as to receive and support an insulated portion of the insulated cable. As commonly applied this extended sleeve has been crimpcd onto the insulation at the same time that the ferrule is crimped onto the bare portion of the conductor. This, for example. is disclosed and a suitable tool therefor is shown and described in an application of Vernon E. Carlson, Serial No. 455,033, filed August 17, 1942.
In many cases it is desirable that the exposed portions of the terminal of the ferrule should be non-conducting, either so as to avoid dangerous or disagreeable shock to persons making adjustments or repairs while the terminals are carrying relatively high voltages or to prevent accidental contact with nearby terminals or other conducting parts. Although it has been common practice prior to my invention, with other types of terminals, to provide insulated sleeves, it has not heretofore been considered feasible to use an insulated sleeve on a terminal which is to be crimped upon a wire. I have now discovered that, if an insulating sleeve is made of a tough stiifly flexible, more or less rubbery plastic of about the same order of thickness as the metal of the ferrule, e. g. from about a tenth up to about three or four times the thickness of the metal, depending upon the toughness and. other properties of the plastic, the resulting insulated ferrule may be used in substantially the same manner and crlmpcd with the same types of tools as those made entirely of metal. e. ts, as described in the atom-mentioned oopending application. More over, I have found that rubbery plastics or the type which may be subjected. to severe deformation and which would recover only slowly after such deformation may be used with advantage, according to my invention; and thus, to the extent that such plastics may be damaged during the crimping operation, the damage is repaired by the gradual recovery of the plastic after its release from the crimping dies. This is of particular advantage when it is desired to mold or crimp the sleeve onto the insulation at the same time that the ferrule is crimped onto the wire. Plastic, materials adapted to be thus formed onto the insulation tend to cut or extrude to some extent, irom under the crimping die in the areas where the ferrule is crimped onto the wire, and thus may expose at certain points the conducting metal of the ferrule. The gradual recovery of the plastic will cause it to creep back over such exposed surfaces and thus give a satisfactory insulation-of the entire ferrule.
In order to prevent a similar recovery of the portion of the sleeve which serves as the insulaticn support, the material of which it is made may be chosen with respect to the surface material of the wire so that the two adhere strongly when pressed together; or. if this is not convenient, a surface coating on the interior of the sleeve may serve as an adhesive for this purpose.
Although I am giving below and showing in the accompanying drawing, preferred cmbodimcnts of my invention and suggesting various modifications thereof and alternatives, it should be understood that these are not intended to be exhaustive or limiting of "the invention, but on the contrary, are given. for purposes of illustration and explanation, in order that others skilled in the art may fully understand the invention, the principles thereof, and the manner of application for practical use, and may thereby be snabled to embody and adaptthe invention in numerous forms and with numerous modifications. each as may be best adapted to the provisions of a particular use.
In the accompanying drawing:

For example, it maybemade from referred to. Between this and the ferrule II, sheet metal having a flat tongue portion ii and 5 howevenwhen the two are assembled, is inserted a ferrule portion 12 made by rolling into cylina layer of insulation Its, whereby the outer sleeve drical form, with the butting edges lateral or ll, although of conducting material, actually is tensions integral with the tongue portion .l I. not in conducting relation to the circuit. This This metal portion can advantageously be made terminal may be applied and crimped onto the of dead soft annealed copper whereby it may be wire in exactly the same manner as indicated in crlmped onto the wire and coined by the crimp- Figure '2.

Over the ferrule i2 is the insulating sleeve II In Figure 4. I have shown diagrammatically which tightly engages the ferrule. Depending one method of making the terminals of Figure 3. upon the material used, this may be a press ilt, In this case a flat sheet of plastic is placed or, advantageously, if as indicated above, the maover a drawing die It in which the sleeve II is terial is one whichmay besubiected to severe fi ted and suitably held.
