Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0623971A2] A method for making connections between electric circuits (2) disposed on insulating supports (1), comprising the steps of mounting a plurality of terminals (7) on said insulating supports, and connecting the terminal ends (2a) of said electric circuits to said plurality of terminals (7), wherein the step of mounting said terminals is carried out by the application of a single conductive sheet member (5) shaped to present a plurality of outwards projecting tongues (6) and a suitable number of projecting tabs to be received in corresponding apertures (4) formed in said insulating support. The sheet member is positioned so that said tongues (6) coincide with respective ones of said terminal ends (2a), said tongues being bent back 180<o> upon themselves to form a pair of legs to be clamped onto the respective terminal end (2a), said sheet member (5) being subsequently cut at selected locations to result in a number of separate sheet elements (6a, 6b and/or 6c). <IMAGE>
