Abstract (en)

1. An electrical terminal connector comprising at least one tubular portion being suitable for being removably fixed by elastic deformation to a cylindrical terminal (10) and being formed by a blank (1) of flat sheet metal substantially rectangular, a tab (5) being cut out in one of the sides of said blank (1), characterized in that : - said tubular portion is formed by spirally winding said blank (1), said side of said blank (1) including said tab (5) being disposed on said free face of said tubular portion ; in that - said tab (5) is folded radially, through a window (6) cut out through the adjacent turns of said tubular portion and is standing proud from the contact face of said tubular part ; and in that - the width of said window (6) enables the circonferential moving of said tab (5) between a first position in which said turns are close to one another and a second position in which said turns are not so close as in said first position, so that the contact with said terminal (10) is provided in the section of said tab (5) in the one of said first and second positions causing the most stressed state of said spiral winding.

Abstract (fr)

Une cosse est réalisée par enroulement en spirale d'un rectangle en métal élastique et une patte (5), formée à l'extrémité extérieure, est repliée à travers une fenêtre (6) pour exercer une force élastique à l'intérieur de la cosse, contre une borne (10) par exemple, serrée entre la patte (5) et l'extrémité intérieure (9) de la spirale. La cosse peut comporter différents nombres de tours dans la spirale, selon l'élasticité désirée, et la patte peut faire saillie vers l'intérieur, comme représenté sur la figure, ou vers l'extérieur, pour d'autres types de contact. Application, entres autres, aux bougies d'allumage de moteurs à explosion.
