ABSTRACT:
A right angle connector which can be added to connector pads pre-existing on a mother board easily and inexpensively to accept a daughter board at any time for system enhancement. The right angle connection is also inexpensively manufactured and installed. The connector includes a slotted housing, a slotted elastomeric member, and a flexible circuit with numerous conductors. The flexible circuit is wrapped around the elastomeric member with its two free ends ending in the slot of the elastomeric member and these components are then inserted into the housing. The elastomeric member is a little bit larger than the enclosed volume of the housing when it is mounted by fasteners to the mother board. Thus, as the housing is fastened to the mother board, the elastomeric member is compressed causing it to make a better electrical contact between the electrical contacts of the mother board and the electrical contacts of the daughter board.
