Molded connector and method of producing the same
A connector comprising an electrically insulating body, and at least one contact element provided in the electrically insulating body. The contact element includes a protrusion integrally formed on the electrically insulating body and an electrically conducting layer deposited on a surface of the protrusion. The contact element is fixedly supported at opposite ends thereof on the electrically insulating body to exert elasticity or a spring action. The connector is produced by molding a primarily molded body including at least one protrusion, molding a secondarily molded body on the primarily molded body to form the electrically insulating body in such a manner as to partially cover the primarily molded body except for the surface of the protrusion, and depositing the electrically conducting layer on the surface of the protrusion.
