  • Patent number: 5522727
    Abstract: A right-angle electrical connector comprising a plurality of contacts supported on an insulator body, the contacts having a length equal to one another and having opposite ends projecting in different directions normal to each other and coming into contact with first and second connection objects, respectively, to be electrically connected by the connector. Each of the contacts comprises two portions extending in the different directions. The ratio of two portions of each one of contacts is different from that of the different one of contacts. In order to avoid production of various contacts which are different from one another in shape and dimension, the connector comprises a main element of an insulator substrate and conductive strip lines formed thereon, and contact elements like one another fixed to the insulator substrate to project from, and in directions normal to, adjacent side edges of the insulator substrate, respectively.
