Patent ID: 7473101

Claim:
An electrical connector for coupling a first printed wiring board parallel to another printed wiring board, the electrical connector comprising: a plurality of straight conductive power blades for providing an electrical connection between the first printed wiring board and the another printed wiring board; and an upper insulator comprising a plurality of slots, each slot for being mated to an upper portion of a respective one of the conductive power blades from the plurality of blades and a lower insulator comprising a plurality of slots, each slot for being mated to a lower portion of a respective one of the conductive power blades from the plurality of blades; wherein the plurality of conductive power blades is disposed in at least a portion of the plurality of slots in the upper insulator and also disposed in at least a portion of the plurality of slots for the lower insulator, wherein the disposition holds together the upper insulator and the lower insulator; and wherein a space between the upper insulator and the lower insulator provides for a separation of the first printed wiring board from the another printed wiring board.
