ABSTRACT:
An electrical terminal connector and method of fabricating the same is provided. The electrical terminal connector includes an angled insulating housing, a conducting terminal and a cylindrical crimp ferrule positioned therein. Two ends of the insulating housing have a first opening and a second opening, while the angled insulating housing has a through passage therein. The conducting terminal includes a flat-ended connecting portion facing the first opening and a crimped-ended facing the second opening. The cylindrical crimp ferrule has a core-connecting end facing the second opening and a crimped portion facing the crimping end of the conducting terminal. The angled insulating housing further includes a window with a cover at the sidewall near the first opening. One end of the covers pivots at the side of the window, while the other end of the cover comprises a fastening means. The fastening means can be operationally fastened to the matching means forming an opening position and a closed position. The crimped portion of the conducting terminal extends towards the second opening with an elongation. The elongation comprises an axial slit to tolerate radial deformation. The crimping end of the cylindrical crimp ferrule has a diameter slightly larger than that of the extended length at the crimped portion.
