Abstract: The present invention relates to an assembly of contacts to be soldered, constituted by a web in which the contacts are formed and connected together at their end by strips wherein the contacts are alternately disposed in a plane but parallel in laterally spaced relationship and disposed head to tail.

Abstract: A device for inserting on a card for supporting a hybrid circuit or printed circuit, contacts connected together so as to form an assembly and each comprising, at one of their ends, a clip element oriented perpendicularly to the planes of the contacts and adapted to engage on the support card. The device comprises a fixed card support, a frame which is mobile in the longitudinal direction of the support and on which are mounted to be elastically mobile two rollers forming guide rollers for the contact assemblies, the clip elements of the contacts being at the level of the card placed on this support, a jack for displacing this frame, and means for connecting, as desired, the assemblies of contacts on the one hand with the fixed support and on the other hand with the mobile frame.

Abstract: A connector strip for circuit boards comprises a series of parallel connectors. One end portion of each connector is intended to be soldered to a conductor or to be inserted into a printed circuit, the other end portion of each connector being intended to be inserted onto circuit boards. The connectors are interconnected in the strip at each of their end portions.

Abstract: Apparatus for locating connectors onto a circuit board comprises a feed device for feeding stepwise a continuous strip of connectors. Each connector has a clamp at one end and the feed device feeds the strip through successive stations in which the clamps are set to the thickness of the board, the edge of the board is inserted into the clamps of a group of connectors, the group of connectors is separated from the remainder of the strip, and the circuit board with the connectors located thereon is discharged from the apparatus.
