Abstract

A contact blade coupling has a pair of outside members, each member having an integral associated inside member bent along a common edge. The bending of an inside member toward an associated outside member is limited by a spacing protrusion so that inside and outside members are parallel to each other. The inside members are spring contacts and are positioned so as to be prestressed along a line of contact to provide a contact force for holding an intermediate electrical blade connector.
