Abstract

See full text

A terminal position housing (34, 134) is used with an alignment plate (42, 142) to align male terminals or blades (12, 112) extending from a printed circuit board assembly (6, 106). A plug connector (14, 114) having multiple female terminals or receptacles (16, 116) is mated to the blades (12, 112) with the assistance of the terminal position housing (34, 134) and the alignment plate (42, 142). The terminal position housing (34, 134) includes a stationary plate (36, 136) having apertures (38, 138) through which the blades (12, 112) are inserted. The stationary plate apertures (38, 138) are aligned with apertures (44, 144) in the movable alignment plate (42, 142), and these aligned apertures keep the blades (12, 112) aligned with the receptacles (16, 116) even if the blades (12, 112) may be deflected due to forces applied by mechanical assist members, such as bolts (96).
