ABSTRACT:
A system for providing edge connection to printed circuit boards and the like avoids prior art problems of insertion force and contact wear by employing a connector comprising two mutually-pivotable arms having protrusions at their distal ends which are separable in response to the insertion therebetween of a board to separate spring contact sections wherebetween the board can be passed without friction, the protrusions falling into a void in the board at the end of the insertion process to allow the spring contacts to impinge upon contact pads on the board, and the system operating in the reverse manner for the removal of a board.
