ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for providing electrical connection between a pair of electrical conductor leads, each having a ring terminal, and an electrically conductive connection tab of a medical electrode, including a pair of engagement holes, includes upper and lower connector portions which are permanently secured together, as by sonic welding, to hold the ring terminals in contact with the connection tab. The ring terminals are secured on posts where extend from one of the connector portions through engagement holes in the tab. Ribs on the posts hold the ring terminals in position during assembly of the connector. The connector includes outwardly curved surfaces adjacent an access opening for the conductor leads so as to transmit a portion of a force, which may be applied to the leads, to the connector and to relieve the terminals of a portion of such force.
