Abstract
Abstract A novel and improved rod-shaped interconnector having a structure of an electrically conductive material and an electrically insulating material, at least one of them being flexible, arranged alternatively in strata, which is provided with electrically insulating coating layers on the lateral surfaces having no direct contribution to electric conduction. The interconnectors are safe from the defective phenomenon of surface leakage especially in a highly humid atmosphere.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
163 words
An interconnector comprised of a rod-shaped stratified body with a rectangular cross section formed with strata of an electrically insulating rubbery material and strata of electrically conducting rubbery material in an alternate stratification along the longitudinal direction of the rod-shaped stratified body and two electrically insulating layers of a rubbery material each adhesively bonded to and covering an opposite lateral surface of the rod-shaped stratified body, the hardness of the electrically insulating rubbery material for the strata in the stratified body being smaller by at least 5 in the JIS scale than that of the electrically conductive rubbery material, the hardness of the rubbery material forming the insulating layers not exceeding 50 and smaller by at least 10 in the JIS scale than that of the electrically conductive rubbery material in the stratified body and the thickness of each of the insulating layers being larger than the width of the stratified body between the opposite surfaces to which the insulating layers are bonded.
