Abstract
Abstract A multiple socket connector, for integrally connecting multiple points on a printed circuit board through a chassis to a system harness. An integrated circuit is connected to a wire wrap type printed circuit socket, the pins of which connect to and extend through the printed circuit board, and which also extend through a chassis opening and connect to a mating dual-in-line IC socket. The output leads of the IC socket are connected to the system harness. A spacer may be provided between the two sockets to insulate the wire wrap leads from the chassis.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
115 words
Connector apparatus for connecting multiple points on a printed circuit board mounted on a chassis through an opening in such chassis to a system harness, comprising: a. a wire wrap type printed circuit socket, adapted to receive the terminal leads of an integrated circuit, and having wire wrap leads adapted to be connected to and extending through openings in said printed circuit; b. a dual-in-line integrated circuit socket having receiving openings complementary to said wire wrap leads, and receiving same; c. said integrated circuit socket being positioned on the opposite side of said chassis from said printed circuit board, and having socket terminal leads adapted to be connected to connecting leads of said system harness.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
115 words
Connector apparatus for connecting multiple points on a printed circuit board mounted on a chassis through an opening in such chassis to a system harness, comprising: a. a wire wrap type printed circuit socket, adapted to receive the terminal leads of an integrated circuit, and having wire wrap leads adapted to be connected to and extending through openings in said printed circuit; b. a dual-in-line integrated circuit socket having receiving openings complementary to said wire wrap leads, and receiving same; c. said integrated circuit socket being positioned on the opposite side of said chassis from said printed circuit board, and having socket terminal leads adapted to be connected to connecting leads of said system harness.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
The apparatus as described in claim 1 comprising a spacer constructed of insulating material, having openings adapted for receiving said wire wrap leads, with said wire wrap leads inserted through said spacer openings, said spacer being positioned in registry with said chassis opening to insulate said wire wrap leads therefrom.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
