Device for electrically connecting contact points on neighboring circuit boards

Abstract

Such a device is used for electrically connecting at least one contact point on a first circuit board to at least one contact point on a second circuit board positioned neighboring the first circuit board using at least one conductor provided with an insulating sheath. In order to be able to construct and handle such a device simply, it is distinguished by cutting contacts, to be positioned fixed on the relevant circuit board at the contact points, having cutters implemented at contact points for contacting the conductor without stripping and by a housing which receives the conductor and tightly encloses it, having a conductor insertion opening on the long side, which extends over the respective conductor length, and guide contours on both sides on the inner sides adjoining the conductor insertion opening, which run transversely to the housing lengthwise direction, which are recessed relative to lateral conductor bearing surfaces on these housing inner sides and which are tailored to a recess of the contact legs, which are provided with the cutters, of the cutting contacts.
