Abstract:
An adapter has two conductors each with a U-shaped bend forming upper longer legs and lower shorter legs. The conductors face each other with the longer legs linearly aligned with each other and the shorter legs aligned with each other, thereby forming a first gap between the longer legs and a second gap between the shorter legs. The first gap is substantially smaller than the second gap, so that an electrical package can be placed across the first gap to contact the two upper longer legs, while the two shorter legs are spaced further apart to span a larger gap between conductors of a connector. Thus, the adapter enables the electrical package to be connected to conductors having a gap that is larger than the electrical package.

Claim (Index 56):
An adapter for use with a signal conductor having a first conductor segment and a second conductor segment separated from the first conductor segment to form a gap therebetween, said adapter comprising:\n a housing defining an interior space; a first contact member having a first end with a first contact surface, a second end with a second contact surface, and a curved section located at least partially within the interior space of the housing and between the first end and the second end such that the first end and the second end are parallel to each other and offset by the curved portion; a second contact member having a first end with a first contact surface, a second end having a second contact surface, and a curved section located at least partially within the interior space of the housing and between the first end and the second end such that the first end and the second end are parallel to each other and offset by the curved portion; a circuit element located within the interior space of said housing; wherein the first end of said first and second contact members are connected with the circuit element; and wherein the second end of said first and second contact members extend outside the housing and connect with the first conductor segment and the second conductor segment, respectively.
