Abstract

1,076,145. Cable couplings. MINNESOTA MINING AND MANUFACTURING CO. June 6, 1964 [Juno 6, 1963], No. 23020/64. Addition to 995,417. Heading H2E. In a connector for interconnecting two tape cables as described in Specification 995,417, the contact element 45 comprises a single pair of oppositely directed contact arms (46, 47) and one or more resilient members (49) extending from their junction to retain the element in the socket 44 between the cover 40 and the base 41 of the connector.
