ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly for metallic wires comprises a tapered spring coil member made from stiff elastic wire having a distended end at the apex and a thermoplastic member having an elongated shell with a central bore closed at one end by a wall and having on the other end a substantially circular opening. The inside of the bore is substantially tapered such as to be adapted to house the tapered spring coil member. Two recesses are provided in the tapered inside wall of the thermoplastic member running on opposite sides substantially parallel to the central axis of the bore for providing a locking position to the distended end of the inserted spring coil member. A protrusion near the open end of the thermoplastic member retains the tapered spring coil member inside of the thermoplastic member. The thermoplastic member preferably on its outside forms a frustrum of a cone with, in addition, two substantially conical section planes being provided to allow for easy gripping of the connector assembly.
