Abstract
A connector-cable assembly in which a flat, multiple wire cable is secured in a connector body through a transverse, sharply angled rib, and the stripped wire ends are terminated into a plurality of plate members disposed in parallel planes and spaced longitudinally of the wires to provide mounting and working space. Each wire is terminated by being progressively urged and then forced into an open throated slot formed in one of the plate members. The slots are formed so that there is intimate, large area contact, and wedge resistance to linear pull-out. The plate members are plated for corrosion resistance and a heating step following mechanical connection causes melting or intermetallic diffusion. The rib not only provides strain relief, but also indexes the cable end for assembly and anchors the cable for partial stripping--the latter permitting simultaneous and convenient positioning of the wires.
