ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly for small gauge magnet wire comprising a terminal (11) stamped and formed as a one-piece metal strip having a bowed wire engaging portion (14) with a convex, serrated, wire engaging surface (15) and mounting arms (16 and 17) extending in the direction of the bow from opposite ends. Both arms (16 and 17) are formed with wire receiving notches (20 and 21) and one arm (17) is hooked around an eccentric land (31) of a support (13) at one end of a wire supporting surface (26) while the other arm (16) is formed with a catch (22) engageable with a latching ramp (32) at the opposite end of the wire supporting surface (26). The terminal (11) is movable on the support (13) from a wire receiving position in which the wire engaging surface (15) is spaced from the wire supporting surface (26) for receiving a wire (12) extending through the notches (20 and 21) between the surfaces (15, 26) to a wire connecting position in which the wire (12) is clamped between the surfaces (15, 26) by engagement of the catch (22) with the latching ramp (32) in a detent action.
