Abstract (en)

A connector, useful particularly but not exclusively in application to printed circuits to be coated with a protective coating. The connector (10) comprises a box-like shell (11), which forms internally at least one receptacle (12) for a corresponding electrical terminal (13) that can be inserted in the box-like shell (11) so that an electrical contact tip (14) protrudes from the bottom wall (18) of the shell (11). The at least one receptacle (12) is closed at the bottom wall (18) and has, on the bottom wall (18), a thinner portion (20) that is suitable to be pierced by the electrical contact tip (14) during the assembly of the terminal (13) with the box-like shell (11). The electrical contact tip (14), during insertion in the connector (10), tears the thinner portion (20) with dimensions that are substantially equal to its own dimensions, forming in practice an opening that is shaped complementary to its own shape, without forming in practice any gap between the inside and the outside of the shell (11); accordingly, the protective coating finds no access to the inside of the connector (10). <IMAGE>
