Abstract

An electrical connector comprises an insulative housing having a bottom plate defining a longitudinal direction, two longitudinal side walls extending upward from the bottom plate, four channels each defined through an upper edge of the side walls, and pick-up means having a main body defining a smooth upper surface and four downward extending resilient legs for retaining in said channels of the housing. The channels of the housing can be provided on the bottom plate of the housing rather than in the side walls thereof.
