ABSTRACT:
An improved electrical connector comprised of a plurality of spaced, angled, electrically conducting fins which are resiliently mounted and have curved outer edges for making electrical bridging contact between conductors disposed on opposite sides of the fins. A device used to bridge a gap between conductors of electrical current. The method of making the device includes providing a generally flat sheet capable of being severed or pierced and expanded, forming a number of pairs of slots in the sheet to present sheet portions between respective slot pairs and then applying oppositely directed forces to the opposed sides of the sheet to expand the same and to cause the sheet portions to be pivoted out of the plane of the sheet and into respective angled positions to form the fins. A permanent set then exists between the fins and the remainder of the sheet or the metal can be hardened. The sheet can be cut into different sizes and shapes to meet specific requirements.
