.~ Having only two duplicate contacts arranged bilaterally symmetric about longitudinal axis of engagement
DEFINITION
Classification: 439/619
Having only two duplicate contacts arranged bilaterally symmetric about longitudinal axis of engagement:
(under subclass 611) Electrical connector wherein the connector carried by the glasslike body carries only two identical contacts which are spaced-apart and electrically insulated one from the other, the connector further forming a coupling part* specially adapted to mate or interengage with a complementary contact-carrying counterpart*, so that an electrical joint having only two mutually-insulated electrical paths may be formed, and wherein the two spaced-apart contacts taken together are disposed bilaterally symmetric about the longitudinal axis along which the coupling part is intended to be engaged and coupled with its mating counterpart.
(1) Note. The bilaterally symmetric disposition of the two duplicate contacts of the connectors in this subclass also means that each contact is annularily spaced about the longitudinal axis of engagement 180 degrees from the other contact.
