Patent number: 10854999Abstract: Angled electrical header connectors comprise a housing with a first electrical terminal port and a second electrical terminal port oriented apart from one another. A first electrical terminal is disposed within the first electrical terminal port, and a first electrical insulator is interposed between the first electrical terminal port and the first electrical terminal. A second electrical terminal is disposed within the second electrical terminal port, and a second electrical insulator is interposed between the second electrical terminal port and the second electrical terminal. A passage exists between the first electrical terminal port and the second electrical terminal port, and one of the first electrical terminal or the second electrical terminal extends into the electrical terminal port of the other of the first electrical terminal or the second electrical terminal to make an electrical-mechanical connection therebetween in situ within the housing.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2019Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY CORPORATIONInventors: Matthew G.

Patent number: 6162080Abstract: A socket for positioning and installing an integrated circuit on a circuit board includes multiple contacts mounted in a base, each contacts receiving one of the leads which extend from the sides of the integrated circuit. The contacts include a pair of engagement members which are spread apart by spreader members which are forced between the engagement members by operation of an actuating member which is slidably mounted on the base, thereby permitting installation of the leads within the contacts. Upon release of the actuating member, the contact engagement members return to their initial position and engage on opposite sides of the leads, thus providing an electrical connection between the contacts and the leads. The contacts include offset lips on the upper end thereof which permits the engagement surfaces to deflect without interference with adjacent contacts.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 1999Date of Patent: December 19, 2000Assignee: Wells-CTIInventors: Valts E. Treibergs, Michael S. Glick, Kevin L. Young
