ABSTRACT:
A wire connector to be soldered to a printed circuit mother board has two J-shaped outer legs and a central bight integrally formed with the legs and comprising juxtaposed contact portions to receive the edge connector of another such board. The outer legs and the central bight are in a common plane and the outer legs have flexure portions of reduced thickness. The thickness is reduced in the plane so that the flexibility of the wire is increased in that direction, making it easier to flex the legs to shift the location of the contact portions. Thus, a line of such contact portions on a row of clips can easily be brought into exact alignment to receive the other board without the necessity of using a jig to align all of the clips when they are attached to the mother board.
