Patent ID: 7074076

Claim:
An electrical miniplug assembly conprising: a dielectric body formed with an upper array of upper seats lying in an upper mounting plane and a lower array of lower seats interleaved with the upper seats and lying in a lower mounting plane substantially parallel to but offset from the upper mounting plane; respective longitudinally extending upper contacts each unitarily formed with a wide flat mounting region lying in a respective one of the upper seats on the upper mounting plane and having a predetermined transverse width measured parallel to the planes, a rear contact end projecting rearwardly from the respective mounting region, and a narrow front contact end projecting forwardly from the respective mounting region; and respective longitudinally extending lower contacts each unitarily formed with a wide flat mounting region lying in a respective one of the lower seats on the lower mounting plane and having the predetermined transverse width measured parallel to the planes; a rear contact end projecting rearwardly from the respective mounting region, and a narrow front contact end projecting forwardly from the respective mounting region, all of the front contact ends being spaced apart by the predetermined width and lying on a common contact plane parallel to one of the mounting planes.
