  • Patent number: 7497708
    Abstract: An electrical connector has a dielectric body having longitudinally opposite inner and outer faces and formed with a central cavity opening longitudinally outward at the outer face and a pair of side cavities flanking the central cavity and also opening longitudinally outward at the outer face, respective stiff contacts fixed in the side cavities and each having an outer end projecting longitudinally outward from the respective side cavity past the outer face, an elastically deformable generally U-shaped bridge clip having a bight in the central cavity and a pair of generally longitudinally extending arms each having an outer end projecting longitudinally outward from the central cavity past the outer face, each of the arm outer ends bearing transversely on a respective one of the contact outer ends in an uncoupled position of the connector. The bight is held in the cavity to retain the clip therein against longitudinal movement.

  • Patent number: 7338313
    Abstract: A wire having a conductive core surrounded by an insulation sheath is fitted to an electrical connector having a housing formed with a longitudinally extending passage and a contact part in the passage. The contact part has a front end having pair of sides adapted to flank a contact pin engaged in the passage and a rear end adapted to grip the wire with a stripped end of the conductive core extending in the front end between the sides thereof alongside the pin. An anchor lug on one of the sides engages an inner surface of the passage and retains the contact part therein. A biasing element braced between the conductive core and an opposite inner surface of the passage presses the conductive core transversely against the pin.
