DEFINITION

Classification: 439/840

Helically coiled spring forms securing part:

(under subclass 816) Electrical connector wherein the elastic body is in the form of a coil made from a resilient wirelike material which has been formed into a series of loops or turns wound helically about an axis; and wherein the said elastic coil also constitutes the displaceable securing member, whereby the elastic coil is in direct touching engagement with the conductor to be secured whenever it is secured by the connector.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
