ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a connector for interconnecting electroconductive elements within a laminate. The connector includes a flat electroconductive member having a first portion with at least one connecting segment which overlays an electroconductive element within the laminate, and a second portion extending from the first portion. One end of the second portion of the connector includes a rigid, integral connection terminal which includes multiple plies of the member. Selected portions of the first portion, and preferably at least the connecting segment, are coated with an adhesive. The adhesive may be electrically conductive or non-electrically conductive. In one particular embodiment of the invention the maximum thickness of the first portion of the connector is about 0.10 mm and the maximum width of the first portion, other than the connection segment, is about 6.4 mm. An electrically insulating cover may be positioned over a section of the second portion and a sealing means positioned along the member between the first and second portions. In another embodiment the connector may be positioned in spaced apart relationship to the electroconductive elements to provide a capacitive relationship between the connector and the element.
