  • Screwless wire terminal and spring clip therefor
    Patent number: 4217021
    Abstract: A screwless wire terminal for electric conductors, consisting of a plate-shaped contact against which the conductors are pressed by means of a leaf spring of particular shape. The leaf spring has a U- and a T-shaped part, the stem of the latter starting at the inside of the U-shaped part. The two differently shaped spring parts lie at each side of the plate-shaped contact which has an aperture, the stem of the T-shaped part passing therethrough. Sharp spring edges at the T cross-piece engage the conductors thereby preventing conductor pull-out.
