Electric wall plug

Claim 1

An electrical plug comprising in combination a body member and a sleeve-type pressure applying member of complementary form, said body member being formed with a substantially planar wall, a lower lip at one end thereof and a block centrally located on the wall having a pair of shallow recesses for receiving the ends of electrical conductors in substantially linear configuration, a pair of V-shaped resilient prongs secured one on each side of said block, each prong having a protuberance registering with the corresponding recess in the block, said pressure applying member being formed by a pair of spaced abutments connected together by an upper lip and substantially planar rear wall to define a central cavity, said block being formed with a pair of grooves extending in the direction of said prongs and said abutments having cooperating tongues whereby said body member and said pressure applying member fit together by sliding action with said planar walls defining the outside surface of said plug, said spaced abutments urging said protuberances against the ends of the corresponding conductors towards the recesses to form secure electrical contact.
