Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 205 words
An adaptor for a high density multi-contact connector to permit use of conventional wire wrap equipment in connecting leads to the connector, said connector having spaced-apart contacts on opposed sides thereof, the contacts on one side being in opposed relation to the contacts on the other side so as to provide pairs of opposed contacts, said adaptor comprising: support means having pairs of openings in predetermined spaced relation extending longitudinally thereof, alternate pairs of openings being spaced apart a distance greater than its adjacent pair of openings, a plurality of wire wrap posts secured to the support and extending through the openings therein, said posts being secured to the support means by interengagement with the walls of the openings therein, the portion of said posts on one side of said support means being substantially straight, the portions of said posts on the other side being formed inwardly toward the longitudinally defined center of the support means, the pairs of posts having wider spacing being former inwardly at a greater angle than the pairs of posts of lesser spacing, said inwardly formedpost elements bring the said post portions into position wherein each pair registers with a pair of opposed contacts on the sides of said connector.
