ABSTRACT:
A device for selectively interconnecting a series of conductors comprises an insulative housing provided with a series of parallel passages through it each adapted to receive a conductive pin whose free end forms the male connection member and whose opposite end is connected to one of the conductors. The various pins all emerge at their free end on a common side of the housing. An insulative cover closes this side of the housing and is provided internally with a plurality of U-shape cross-section conductive bars forming female connection members each facing a plurality of the passages and adapted to cooperate with a plurality of pins by coming into contact with the emergent free ends thereof so as to short-circuit them electrically together. The housing comprises in each passage retaining members in one piece with the housing and cooperating with a shoulder on the pin after insertion thereof into the housing so as to oppose axial loads exerted on the pins by the conductors and so retain the pin axially in its passage and maintain the end of the pin between the branches of the U-shape of the bar. The cover and the bars are substantially devoid of arrangements for axial mechanical retention of the pins.
