Abstract
A connector for wires comprises a body (20) having through passage (21) adapted to receive a pair of oppositely directed wire end portions (22A, 22B) in close lengthwise relationship with each other, channels (23A, 23B) within the body (20) one to each side of the through passage acutely inclined to and, at their inner ends, breaking into the through passage, and wedge structure (24A, 24B) within the channels adapted upon attempted withdrawal of either of the wire end portions (22A, 22B) from the through passage (21) to urge the wires therebetween forcibly towards each other, whereby friction secures them firmly in the connector. The wedge structure (24A, 24B) consists of balls (25A, 25B) and springs (26A, 26B), and the body (20) is formed by two die-castings (20X, 20Y) secured together by integral projections (27) on one body part (20X) riveted after passing through holes in the other part (20Y), twin bores (21A, 21B) of the through passage (21) and the channels (23A, 23B) being formed by grooves in the mating faces (28X, 28Y) of the body parts (20X, 20Y).
