Abstract of the Disclosure A connector for an edge board or the like comprising an elongated body having an elongated backer frame secured thereto. The body has opposite ends, and upper and lower ends. The body is provided with inner and outer walls which define a card slot extending downwardly therebetween from the upper end thereof. The inner wall has a first side which is positioned adjacent the card slot and a second side disposed opposite thereto. Each of the first and second sides of the inner wall have a plurality of aligned and spaced apart contact slots formed therein. The lower end of the body has a plurality of V-shaped slots formed therein which extend upwardly therein and which are aligned with alternate contact slots. The backer frame has opposite ends, and upper and lower ends. The backer frame also has an inner wall surface positioned closely adjacent the second side of the body inner wall and has its upper end extending over the upper end of the body inner wall. The lower end of the backer frame has a plurality of V-shaped slots formed therein which extend up- wardly therein and which are aligned with alternate contact slots. The V-shaped slots of the body define V-shaped pro- jections therebetween. The V-shaped slots of the backer frame also define V-shaped projections therebetween which are adapted to be received in the V-shaped slots of the body with the V-shaped projections of the body being received by the V-shaped slots of the backer frame. Means is provided to limit the extension of the V-shaped projections into the -1- V-shaped slots. Contacts are mounted in predetermined con- tact slots in the inner wall second side and have upper ends which extend over the upper end of the body inner wall and extend downwardly into the card slot for electrical con- tact with the card positioned therein. The lower ends of the contacts extend downwardly through the V-shaped slots and extend downwardly from the body and backer frame. During the assembly of the connector, one end of the body and one end of the backer frame may be cut to provide the proper length connector. A modified form of the connector is also disclosed. - 2 -
