Connecting device for telecommunication circuits, particularly for the sectioning thereof

Claim 1

A connecting device for telecommunication circuits, more particularly for the sectioning thereof, characterized in that it comprises two parts which may be coupled with each other, of which the first consists of two parallel rods, of different lengths, connected by a substantially rectangular printed circuit provided with a connector, the longer rod having on its outer face input terminals and on the opposed face a groove extending over the greatest part of its length; a face of said rods, parallel with the printed circuit, having a hollow able to house one of two opposed edges of the printed circuit and, on the longer rod, the inner ends of the input terminals; the outer face of the shorter rod having a longitudinal groove with double edge; the second part of the device being formed by a single side rod, externally provided with output terminals and having a hollow able to house an edge of a second, cantilevered printed circuit and the inner ends of the output terminals, one end of the second printed circuit being connected to a connector to which a third printed circuit is joined, said third circuit being kept parallel with the second one and being provided at the opposed end with the contacts able to engage the connector of the said first part, whereas the second and third printed circuits bear the components apt to carry out on the incoming signals the desired processings and treatments.
