Abstract: The disclosure concerns an electrical contact for conducting high current densities in a minimum of space and with improved connection between the contact and the socket. The contact includes a split, internally tapered circular sleeve which is mounted in spring-loaded engagement in a socket. A tapered contact pin conforms to the split sleeve and when inserted causes the sleeve to be wedged between the pin and the socket. The compression spring generates large contact pressures in a relatively short length of connector travel, thus enabling the mechanical advantage of the coupling mechanism to accomplish connector engagement with minimal operator effort.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns an electrical contact for conducting high current densities in a minimum space at acceptable operating temperatures and lower contact resistance than conventional slotted contacts of equivalent size. The contact pin is formed in a series of cascaded extensions and the contact receptacle contains respective sections each threaded or otherwise joined within the other. The external receptacle section and the cascaded pin are made of oxygen-free copper for maximum conductivity.
