Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0812036A1] The female connector is formed from a sheet of thickness less than 0.3 mm which is folded into a cage at the front and to form a connector for a conductor at the rear. Each upper half-wall is folded by 180 degrees to make an internal contact strip (29). The side walls are folded (46-55) to create, by means of a 180 degrees fold (46), a flexing on the strip in the relaxed position and, by a rebate (55), a limit the elastic deformation of the strip when the male connector is inserted. Folds in the sides converge to prevent the insertion of a male connector of inappropriate size. Openings (50) in the walls allow insertion and locking of the connector into an insulated sleeve.
