Abstract:
A method of making a single-sided, conductor-pinching connector comprising steps of:preparing a plurality of conductor-pinching contact pieces having long and short contact stems integrally connected to a carrier strip and conductor-pinching rear ends;preparing a primary insulating body component;putting the plurality of conductor-pinching contact pieces on the primary insulating body component with said long and short contact stems laid on opposite surfaces thereof, and with the conductor-pinching, rear ends directed perpendicular to the contact stems such that the conductor-pinching rear ends are all directed in the same direction;forming a secondary insulating body component by insert-molding the contact pieces thus put on the primary insulating body component;cutting and removing the carrier strip from the contact pieces; andapplying press plates to the conductor-pinching rear ends of the contact pieces.
