ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector 10 for mating two blade-shaped members 120,130 includes a dielectric spacer member 38, a plurality of discrete electrically isolated first terminal members 68 and at least a plurality of discrete electrically isolated second terminal members 88 secured to each opposing major surfaces 40 of spacer member 36 for electrical interconnection of first and second electrical articles; and means insulating associated said first and second terminal members from each other. Each first and second terminal member 68,88 includes first and second cantilevered spring arms 70,76,90,96 respectively extending outwardly in opposite directions from a respective intermediate terminal portion 74,94, the plurality of contact arm of first terminal members 68 defining a first and second contact arm arrays 80,84 and the plurlaity of contact arm 90,96 of second terminal members 88 defining third and fourth contact arm arrays 102,104. In the assembled connector 10 the opposed first and second contact arm arrays 90,96 define first and second blade receiving receptacles 82,86. The opposed third and fourth contact arrays 102,104 extend outwardly and essentially coplanar with the associated first and second contact arm arrays 80,84 thereby extending first and second blade receiving receptacles 82,86 respectively. Upon mating the connector 10 with blade-shaped members 120,130, a plurality of discrete current paths are established between the corresponding first and second sides 122,132;126,136 of the blade-shaped members 120,130 respectively.
