DEFINITION

Classification: 439/722

Terminals or contacts embedded in insulating body:

(under subclass 709) Electrical connector wherein the terminals, contacts, conductor-securing means, or other metallic connectors are secured or fastened to the insulating body (a) by applying either heat or pressure to at least a portion of the insulating body to thereby deform it about at least a portion of each terminal, contact, conductor-securing means, or other metallic connector, (b) by casting the metallic parts within or onto the insulating body, (c) by welding the metallic parts and insulating body to one another, or (d) by applying glue or other adhesive cementlike material between the insulating body and the metallic parts.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

736, for the combination of an insulating body and a metallic connector or contact in which the metallic connector or contact is secured to the insulating body by heat-molding or cold-deforming the insulation about the connector or contact or by means of a casting, welding, or cementing process.
