is made of a non conductive material similar to the first and second insulating rings the third insulating ring has a centrally disposed aperture 122 and an outer edge 124 having terminal strip sections 126 and 128 for receipt of the proximal ends of terminal strips 66 and 68 section 130 positions terminal strip 106 of the second connector and section 132 positions terminal strip 142 of the third connector the sections maintain the second and third connectors in a fixed position the third connector 140 is formed from a base 144 having a centrally disposed aperture 146 that frictionally engages the upper portion 26 of the mounting collar 30 the third connector 140 can be snapped onto the support housing 20 or secured thereto with a coupling such as a snap ring tab 145 may also be used to engage a section of an insulating ring to prevent rotation of the connector a terminal strip 142 has a proximal end 148 and a distal end 150 so as to engage a portion of the sleeve of the audio plug similar to the first and second connectors a scallop shape 152 conforms to the portion of the audio plug providing multiple contact points that are arranged to impact a greater portion of the audio plug to eliminate resistance the third connector 140 includes a third coupling tab 154 for securement to an electrical wire for carrying of an audio signal for ease of clarification a u00bc inch plug and audio jack assembly has been described as the primary embodiment however it is obvious to one skilled in the art and to be understood that the audio jack assembly illustrated can be scaled to received u215b inch plug or.
