Patent

CA 2299996

An insulation displacement connector has a plastic housing including a cover hinged to a case with a conductive clip mounted to the interior surface of the cover. Mechanical latches on the cover and case provide a pre-latch feature during installation of wires and prevent the easy opening of the housing after it has been closed. The housing has funnel-shaped wire entry openings with pre-closure retention members for holding wires inserted into a still open connector. The conductive clip has a base and tines extending from the base. The tines are arranged to impinge on the conductors in a plane normal to the axis of the conductors. The tines are coined to act as a knife edge to reduce the cutting force. The conductive clip's base is mounted such that the closing forces are distributed and the clip will break loose from the cover if an attempt is made to reopen the connector.
