ABSTRACT:
A connector is disclosed wherein a plug member includes a plurality of plug pins rigidly mounted therein. Each of the plug pins includes a support portion with a torsion element and a contact member of elongated cross-section extending therefrom. The connector also includes a socket member including a plurality of rigidly mounted sockets of appropriate dimensions for receiving contact members of the plug member. Each of the sockets includes a throat section with an internal, laterally elongated cross-section, disposed a predetermined distance along the length of the socket. When the torsion elements are relaxed, the contact members are oriented to have their cross-sections misaligned relative to the throat sections of the sockets so as to place the aforementioned torsion elements in torsion when the contact members are forced into the throat sections of corresponding sockets as the plug and socket members are mated.
