Abstract (en)

[origin: US4820173A] In a plug connector strip comprising contact springs, the contact springs include terminal lugs which press against a printed circuit board connected to the plug connector strip. For the compensation of tolerances in the thickness of the printed circuit boards, the terminal lugs are fixed only in a clamping point arranged within the plug connector strip and are therefore resiliently seated. The terminal lugs can be bent roughly at a right angle immediately after they emerge from the plug connector strip and can be constructed in a straight-line manner so that they press roughly perpendicularly against corresponding contact pads of the printed circuit board and are therefore particularly suited for a reflow of solder connection.
