ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for making an electrical device including a contact supported in a housing having a space within which at least part of such contact may move, wherein the contact is placed with respect to a mold core that resiliently deforms the moving part of the contact to a condition it ordinarily would be expected to take during use in connection with another contact and cooperates with at least such moving part of the contact to form a composite core that is placed in a mold cavity to mold a housing about part of the contact and to at least part of the contact while the composite core defines the space within which the moving part of the contact can deform during use. An electrical connecting device is made by the aforementioned process. Also, an electrical connecting device includes an electrical contact, a housing having an opening for receiving a member for contacting the electrical contact, the electrical contact including two or more contacting portions for contacting the member placed therebetween to engagement therewith, such contacting portions being deformable during such placing, and the housing including a body molded to form a singular integral structure about and to at least part of the electrical contact and around the contacting portions to form a substantially open space in the housing between the contacting portions and also on opposite sides thereof to permit such deformation of the contacting portions.
