ABSTRACT:
An electrical resistor comprising an elongated resistor body having a resistance wire winding extending between its ends and terminals at each end contact the resistance winding and each comprise a strip of given width having a first end portion extending about and secured with an end of the body, and a second end portion which extends in a direction transverse to the axis of the body and has a tip for being received through an opening in a printed circuit board. Each strip has an intermediate neck portion of reduced width which is positioned proximate to the resistor body and is twisted so that the second portion extends in a plane which is perpendicular to the axis of the body and in the same direction with and spaced from that of the other terminal allowing adjustment of the distance between their tips. The second end portions each have a shoulder proximate to its tip which is seated on the surface of a circuit board, fixing the position of the resistor and stabilizing its mounting thereon.
The method of making an electrical resistor comprises the steps of segmenting a continuous wire wound core to provide resistor bodies, and cutting out portions of a continuous substantially plane strip of metal material at spaced locations therealong to provide narrow neck regions, and first and second end portions above and below each neck region.
