  • Electrical terminal assembly and terminal therefor
    Patent number: 3977753
    Abstract: In an electrical component support assembly, the lead wires (which are of different gauges) of electrical components, e.g. resistors, are each gripped by the walls of two slots of identical slotted plate terminals. The two slots of each terminal are of the same minimum width but the two slots are laterally offset from one another and the two plates in which the slots are formed are resiliently connected and are formed so that the plates are mutually displaced laterally as the wires are inserted into the slots, whereby the smaller gauge wires are securely gripped between the two plates.
