Abstract: There is provided a bifurcated contact for terminating a pair of insulated conductors. The contact includes a pair of furcations each having first and second interconnected and interdependent resilient elements. Each first element is in the form of a loop extending into a slot formed by the second elements. The first and second elements are on different planes. The first elements include juxtaposed termination surfaces wherein a second conductor may be terminated after the termination of the first conductor without disturbing the integrity of the termination of the first conductor.

Abstract: A pin terminal includes a rounded pin-like electrical connection portion, a body portion, an interconnecting portion, a conductor clamping portion and a covering clamping portion, and this pin terminal is processed into a roll-shape. A drawn portion of a corrugated configuration is circumferentially provided by pressing between the cylindrical body portion of a larger diameter and each of the electrical connection portion of a smaller diameter and the interconnecting portion of a smaller diameter.

Abstract: An improved structure of an electrical connector is provided. The connector has two edge positioning legs, each leg having an appropriate outwardly directed incline extending toward the leg's distal end. The connector body is provided with a plurality of wire receiving openings disposed in parallel spaced relation, each opening having an insulation engaging tab disposed therein. Each of the tabs extends from an inner wall surface of a respective wire receiving opening at a downwardly directed incline. Each tab is provided with a pointed distal end for engaging the insulation surrounding the wire's conductor and resisting withdrawal of the wire from the connector body.
