  • Patent number: 4153324
    Abstract: An electrical terminal that has a mounting portion and an integral conductor clamping portion. The clamping portion includes a base and a pair of walls projecting from the base. Each wall includes two arm portions forming a V-shape. Each arm portion includes a guide surface and a termination surface. The guide surface has a sharpened edge for severing the insulation of a conductor. The guide surface is inclined from this edge in such fashion that the cut insulation is wedged outwardly away from the internal conductor. Contact between the termination surface and the wire portion of the conductor occurs along the entire width of such surface. Opposing walls of the terminal flex laterally outwardly, and the arm portions of each wall flex outwardly at an acute angle, during termination. As a result, the clamping action of the walls and arm portions generates forces having longitudinal and lateral directional components.
