DEFINITION

Classification: 439/843

Having separate gripping spring means located within or extending into a rigid socket body:

(under subclass 842) Electrical connector wherein the female connector comprises a solid nonflexible body having an interior open region for telescopically receiving the

elongated male contact or conductor end, and further comprises a separate and distinct resilient member for engaging and exerting the resilient securing force upon the male contact or conductor end located within the interior region of the nonflexible body; the resilient member being either carried entirely within the interior region of the nonflexible body or carried on the exterior surface of the nonflexible body with a portion thereof extending into the said interior region for resiliently engaging the male contact or conductor end.
