Abstract
Abstract An interconnection device for electronic systems which is intended to establish interchangeable combinations of electrical connections between at least two groups of contact points. The contact points to be interconnected are connector contacts electrically connected to conductors, these connectors are so designed as to cooperate with countercontacts arranged on at least one removable insulated printed circuit board.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
161 words
An interconnection device for establishing interchangeable combinations of electrical connections between a plurality of groups of electrical conductors in an electronic system comprising: a. a parallelepipedic mechanical support means; b. a plurality of electrical connectors arranged in parallel rows on one side of said support means; c. a plurality of boards made of insulating material wherein each board has a plurality of groups of electrical contacts positioned such that each group of said contacts makes electrical connections with one of said connectors in one of said parallel rows, each of said boards further comprising electrical connection strips thereon for interconnecting a number of individual contacts within said group and in different groups; and d. wire means for interconnecting a part of said plurality of electrical connectors in different ones of said parallel rows, groups of said electrical conductors of said electronic system connected to the remaining of said plurality of electrical connectors, each group of electrical conductors connected to one connector.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
161 words
An interconnection device for establishing interchangeable combinations of electrical connections between a plurality of groups of electrical conductors in an electronic system comprising: a. a parallelepipedic mechanical support means; b. a plurality of electrical connectors arranged in parallel rows on one side of said support means; c. a plurality of boards made of insulating material wherein each board has a plurality of groups of electrical contacts positioned such that each group of said contacts makes electrical connections with one of said connectors in one of said parallel rows, each of said boards further comprising electrical connection strips thereon for interconnecting a number of individual contacts within said group and in different groups; and d. wire means for interconnecting a part of said plurality of electrical connectors in different ones of said parallel rows, groups of said electrical conductors of said electronic system connected to the remaining of said plurality of electrical connectors, each group of electrical conductors connected to one connector.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
60 words
The apparatus of claim 1 wherein there are n electrical connectors in each row and wherein each of two of the n connectors in each row are connected to a group of said electrical conductors of said electronic system and the remaining n-2 connectors in each parallel row is connected to a remaining connector in another of said parallel rows.
