A connector for plug-in card circuits is provided with at least one connecting-strip constituted by a parallelepipedal base and cover-plate for supporting a plurality of resilient electrical contact elements. The cover-plate is capable of pivotal displacement with respect to the base for inserting the edge of a card in the open position and establishing an electrical contact between the conductive elements of the strip and of the card in the closed position. Deformation of the strip in the closed position is prevented by a clip in the form of a U-section member having a resilient central portion, the two arms of which are applied respectively on the base of the connecting-strip and on the cover-plate.

Connecting-strip for plug-in cards and a connector fitted with

A card-edge connector support providing electric and thermal connections for cards or boards of the printed circuit type in which removal of thermal energy constitutes an essential requirement. The support comprises a common flat base adapted to carry a plurality of strip connectors placed at right angles to each other, a groove being formed in each strip for receiving one edge of the card. The opposite internal faces of the groove are adapted to carry electrical and thermal contacts respectively, the bearing force for heat transmission being obtained by elastic deformation of the electrical contacts.
