ABSTRACT:
An improved connector for attaching a mother board to a daughter board, having 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 at the slot of the elastomeric member. The wrapped elastomeric member is located in a chamber in the housing with the slot in the housing communicating with the slot in the elastomeric member so that when the daughter board is inserted into the housing, it engages the free ends of the flexible circuit within the slot of the elastomeric member. The elastomeric member has two semi-cylindrical portions which are separated by a channel at the bottom thereof. The elastomeric member with these semi-cylindrical portions is slightly larger than the chamber of the housing when 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 exert more pressure on the electrical contacts of the flexible circuit as they contact the connector pads of the mother board.
