- the conductors are grouped in two equal zones 43 and 44 separated by a central empty band 45 extending parallel to the shorter sides of the substrate.
- Two further empty bands 46 are provided one adjacent each shorter side of the substrate.
- a plurality of spaced holes 47 is provided in each empty band, the holes of each band being aligned with corresponding holes in the other bands.
- the flexible circuit of FIG. 5 is formed into a cylinder with the conductors on the outside by ultrasonically welding or bonding the two bands 46 together so that the two sets of holes on the bands 46 are superimposed.
- Each cam 17 is cylindrical and has a short eccentric pin 50 extending from each end 51 of the cylinder, the two eccentric pins being aligned. At least one of the pins of each cam is provided with a slot 52 extending inwardly of its free end.
- Each L-shaped end member 18 has two legs 53 and 54 joined at a right angle.
- the leg 53 has a rectangular recess 55 provided in the face 56 remote from the leg 54.
- a pair of oval section holes 57 extends through the leg 53 one on each side of the recess 55.
- the face 56 is also provided at the junction of legs 53 and S4 with a pair of spaced recesses 58.
- the leg 54 is provided with a central tapped through hole 59.
- the connector 10 is assembled by slipping the cylindrical flexible circuit 14 over the spring 11 such that the holes 47 of the circuit 14 are aligned respectively with the holes 24 of the spring, and applying the nut 12 between the arms 20 of the spring 11 so that the bosses 37 of the nut are respectively force-fitted into the holes 24 of the spring and through the aligned holes 47 of the flexible circuit 14.
- the cams 17 may now be received respectively in the cylindrical ears 27 of the spring 11.
- the connector is now ready for connection to a printed circuit mother board 60 which has a plurality of parallel copper tracks separated into two zones 61 and 62.
- a plurality of spaced through holes 63 is provided in the band 64 between the two zones 61 and 62.
- a further larger through hole 65 is provided at each end of the row of holes 63.
- the partly assembled connector is then mounted on the board 60 by aligning the tapped holes 38 of the nut 12 respectively with the holes 63 in the board 60 and then applying the screws 13 via the underside of the board so that the threaded shanks 39 register with the holes 38.
- the studs 13 are then tightened so that their heads 40 bear hard up against the underside of the board 60.
- Each L-shaped member 18 is then mounted to the board 60 by aligning the tapped through hole 59 with one of the larger holes 65 in the board 60.
- the holes 65 and other parts of the connector they are slid towards opposite ends of the partly assembled connector until the pins 50 of the cams 17 respectively pass through the oval holes 57 of the members l8 and the pins 35 of the nut 14 are received respectively in the recesses 58 of the members 18.
- a suitable large screw 66 is then introduced into each tapped hole 59 via the underside of the board 60, and the screws are screwed up tight to secure the members 18 firmly to the board.
- the downwardly projecting portions 23 of the spring 11 force the conductors 42 of zones 43 and 44 of the flexible circuit 14 respectively against the copper tracks of the zones 61 and 62 of the board 60 along two parallel contact lines.
- the conductors 42 of the zones 43 and 44 of the flexible circuit 14 can be seen to extend into the mouth 26 between the arms of the spring 11.
- a screwdriver 69 as seen in FIG. 3 is used to rotate the earns 17 180 from the position shown in FIG. 4 by means of the eccentric slotted pin 50, the cams 17 in this position urging the cars 27 of the spring 11 away from each other to open the mouth 26.
- the daughter board 68 may now be inserted into the mouth without force, the leading edge of the board 68 being received in the slot 32 of the nut 14.
- the earns 17 are rotated to their former position, by means of the screwdriver, which has the effect of closing the mouth 26 and urging the conductors 42 into engagement with respective conductors 66 on both sides 70 and 71 of the board 68.
- the oval shape of the holes 37 in which the cam pins 50 are seated allows resilient deflection apart of the arms of the spring 11.
