ABSTRACT:
A connector terminal in a cardiac stimulator for receiving a connector pin of an associated lead includes a hollow box member having opposite end walls defining a first bore for receipt of the connector pin. A ring member movably disposed within the box member defines a second bore generally aligned with the first bore for also receiving the connector pin. A threaded neck connected to the ring member extends perpendicular to the second bore and is received within a through bore of the box member that is disposed perpendicular to the first bore. An internally threaded cap threadedly engages the threaded neck and bears in a thrust bearing relationship on the box portion. As the cap is rotated, the ring portion is drawn upwardly as the cap presses downwardly on the box portion, causing the second bore to be moved transversely out of alignment with the first bore. A connector pin received through both first and second bores is clamped therebetween and retained against axial withdrawal from the connector terminal.
