ABSTRACT:
A connector has a plug and a socket. The plug is provided with at least one male contact member composed of two resilient foils in the shape of spoons. Each of these foils is mounted in a floating manner in the insulating block of the plug. The socket has a female contact member which is rigidly mounted in the insulating block. Thus, when the connector is plugged in, the contact element of the plug can align with the contact element of the socket by which it is then positioned. The connector can be executed with a distance between the contact sets of only 1.27 mm (0.05 inches). The connector is useful with surface mounting technology.
