DEFINITION

Classification: 439/668

Having only push-pull-engaging contacts spaced along longitudinal axis of engagement (e.g.., jack-type receptacle or plug):

(under subclass 660) Coupling part adapted to be coupled to its mating coupling part solely by linearly pushing the one coupling part directly toward and into engagement with the mating coupling part, and the coupling parts are separated solely by linearly pulling the said one coupling part away from the other coupling part in the engaging motion; and wherein the contacts are all either disposed serially along a line parallel to the longitudinal axis along which the coupling part engages its mating coupling part or disposed serially along two or more lines parallel to but spaced at different distances from the longitudinal axis along which the coupling part engages its mating coupling part.
