Abstract

Multi-contact electrical connectors having socket-type female contacts and pin-type male contacts, each female contact having a single radially deflecting part which in its deflected position allows the corresponding male contact to enter or withdraw from the female contact with weak or zero force, and which when the male contact is fully inserted is held, possibly by a shiftable control member, in a gripping position in which the deflecting part grips the male contact. The deflecting part has a boss or protuberance projecting outwards radially through a hole in an external casing of the respective female contact so as to be movable by the control member or other abutting structure.
