ABSTRACT:
A plastic bushing has an axially running rectangular tapered hole. A metal terminal strip has a central portion with barbed edges. The thickness of the strip is less than the narrow dimension of the bushing hole while the width of the central strip portion is greater than the widest dimension of the bushing hole. The strip is pressed into the hole while ultrasonic energy is applied, to embed the barbed strip edges in opposite of the bushing walls. The bushing structure includes snap-in mounting means. This two piece terminal-bushing assembly provides a strong low cost unit that is simple to mount and connect to.
