ABSTRACT:
Electrical connector receptacle comprises an insulating housing having a plug-receiving end and a plug-receiving opening extending into the plug-receiving end. A plurality of stamped and formed conductors are mounted on the housing in side-by-side spaced-apart relationship. Each conductor has a contact spring portion which extends diagonally from the plug-receiving end into the opening from one of the sidewalls of the opening. Each conductor has an intermediate portion which is reversely bent at the plug-receiving end and extends through a channel in an external sidewall towards the rearward end of the housing. The end portion of the conductor extends beyond the housing to permit mounting of the housing on a circuit board with the end portion of the conductor soldered to a conductor on the board. An improved manufacturing method is disclosed in which a plurality of the conductors are simultaneously sheared from a continuous strip, inserted into the side-by-side channels in the external sidewall, and each conductor is formed during assembly to provide the contact springs which extend into the plug-receiving opening.
