ABSTRACT:
A rounded wire connector is formed by bending a single piece of wire into a J-shaped configuration consisting of first and second parts joined together by a U-shaped loop and extending in generally parallel directions but with the second part offset in one direction from the first part and having a convex bend to form a contact region. The first part is bent to form an offset that extends from the main portion of the first part in the same direction as the direction of displacement of the second part. Two rows of the connectors can be mounted in a main insulating support member that has rows of holes just wide enough to receive the aforementioned offsets of two rows of the wire connectors. The rows of holes are spaced apart by a distance such that, when the connectors are mounted in the holes by being soldered to conductive pads on the surface of the main insulating support member with the offsets in the holes and extending substantially transversely thereacross, the contact regions of one row of connectors will be spaced from the contact regions of the other row of connectors by a proper distance, less than the thickness of a subsidiary insulating member, to make good mechanical contact with the subsidiary member and good mechanical contact with electrical circuits printed on opposite sides thereof.
