ABSTRACT:
An edge connector wherein an insulated base defines an elongated opening and an insulated carrier is slidably mounted to the base. The carrier is provided with an elongated opening for receiving a printed circuit board. A series of conductors are pivotly coupled between the base and the carrier, such that each of the conductors pivots about one end when the carrier is slid with respect to the base. The length of the conductors is sufficient to come into contact with the edge contacts of the printed circuit board when the printed circuit board is received by the carrier and for transmitting a retaining force to the printed circuit board. A series of resilient pins mounted to the base and in contact with the pivot end of respective conductor of the series of conductors provides along with a spring both the retaining force and the contact force necessary for good electrical contact.
