Disclosed is a plastic strip for use in the manufacture of unshrouded insulative housings for electrical connectors. The strip is comprised of an elongated body having a first and a second end and adjacent the first end there is a cavity for receiving a polymeric molding compound. This cavity allows the strip to be attached end to end a second subsequently formed axially aligned plastic strip to allow for the continuous manufacture of such strips. The strip also includes a plurality of axially spaced apertures for receiving pins or other conductive elements.
A plastic strip used in the manufacture of unshrouded insulative housings for electrical connectors without use of a separate longitudinal spine or carrier comprising an elongated body having a first and second end and having in spaced adjacent relation to said first end a cavity for receiving a polymeric molding compound for attachment to a second strip and there being a first molding compound conveying recess connecting said first end and said cavity, a second molding compound conveying recess connecting said first end and said cavity in spaced relation to said first molding compound conveying recess, and a plurality of conductive member receiving areas interposed at spaced intervals between said cavity and said second end, wherein said first molding compound conveying recess comprises a first channel from said first end through said body into said cavity, and wherein said channel is bound on at least three sides by said body.
A plastic strip used in the manufacture of an unshrouded insulative housing for an electrical connector without use of a separate longitudinal spine or carrier comprising an elongated body formed of first and second polymeric sections which are formed from separate injections of a polymeric molding compound and wherein said first polymeric section is contained in a first length having opposed first and second ends and wherein a second length is positioned in axial abutting relation to said first length at said first end of said first length, wherein said second polymeric section is contained in said second length and in a portion of said first length, wherein said second polymeric section in said portion of said first length is located in a space in the first length spaced from the first end of the first length and in a first and second axial bridge extending between said space and said first end, wherein said first bridge is spaced from lateral sides of said first polymeric section and wherein said strip has a plurality of axially spaced conductor member receiving areas.
A plastic strip used in the manufacture of unshrouded insulative housings for electrical connectors without use of a separate longitudinal spine or carrier comprising the product of a process comprising the steps of:
