ABSTRACT:
A connector for electrically interconnecting a lead of a device to a terminal spaced at a distance from the lead. The apparatus includes a housing which has a slot to receive one of each of the one or more contacts. The contact-receiving slot extends substantially parallel to an axis which extends between a corresponding lead and spaced terminal. The housing has a first trough formed therein proximate the lead and a second trough formed therein proximate the spaced terminal. A first elastomeric element is received in the first trough formed in the housing, and a second elastomeric element is received in the second trough formed in the housing. The first and second elastomeric elements have a measure of compressibility and tensile extendibility. A contact is received within each slot. Each contact provided has a protrusion which extends outward from the surface of the housing to be engaged by the lead to which it corresponds. Each contact also has a hub which extends outward from the surface to engage the corresponding spaced terminal. Each contact also has first and second hook portions, the first hook portion being disposed proximate the contact protrusion and encircling the first elastomeric element to hold the contact to the first elastomeric element, and the second hook portion being disposed proximate the contact nub and encircling the second elastomeric element to hold the contact to the second elastomeric element.
