Abstract

See full text

A terminal free electrical connector. The connector includes a housing having a plurality of apertures formed therein for the introduction of electrical leads. A wire frame fits into the housing and has a plurality of arrayed throughbores, into which the leads are inserted. The wire frame includes a slot which leaves a portion of each lead exposed. Electrical contact may thus be maintained between the exposed portions of the leads in the wire frame and either a mating electrical connector, or a flat contact surface. A method connecting electrical leads without the use of terminals is also disclosed.
