ABSTRACT:
An electrical circuit connection assembly aligns the corresponding contacts of two fine-line printed circuits. The assembly includes an alignment plate affixed to one of the circuits which has flexible legs whose ends engage in converging guide slots on the other circuit when the corresponding contacts of the two circuits are in gross registration. When the two circuits are clamped together, those legs flex outward along the slots so that they are wedged by the slot walls laterally in one direction or the other until they are centered in their slots to achieve fine registration of those circuit contacts.
