Pressure contact holding-type connector
First Claim
1. A connector for interconnecting electrodes, comprising:
- an insulating housing, said insulating housing having an inner surface defining within said insulating housing a through-hole having a large-diameter portion and a reduced-diameter portion;
a conductive pin having a contact portion; and
a conductive coil spring mounted within said large-diameter portion of said through-hole and biasing said conductive pin such that said contact portion of said conductive pin is resiliently urged to protrude from said reduced-diameter portion of said through-hole,wherein at least one outer lower corner portion of said insulating housing is chamfered for cooperating with a corresponding portion in an alignment jig so as to align said insulating housing within the alignment jig.

Abstract
A pressure contact holding-type connector in accordance with the present invention is configured to be interposed between opposing electrodes. A conductive pin is located in at least one end portion of each through-hole of an insulating housing having a through-hole oriented in a thickness direction. A flange section provided on the conductive pin is mated with a small-diameter section provided in one end portion of the through-hole to maintain at least part of the conductive pin in a state of accommodation inside the through-hole. And, a conductive coil spring having one end thereof mated with the flange section provided on the conductive pin and pushing the conductive pin with a snap to an exterior of the through-hole is installed inside the through-hole. The conductive pin can be disposed at both ends of the coil spring.
