A hermetically sealed terminal having improved leakage resistance, the terminal comprising a support member having a base with at least one annular opening therein and a pair of concentric sleeves associated with the opening and projecting outwardly from one side of the base, with an elongated terminal pin extending centrally through the sleeves, the terminal pin being secured to the support member by a molded dielectric sealing member bonded to the terminal pin and to the opposite surfaces of the base, integral portions of the sealing member filling the innermost sleeve and the annular space between the two sleeves and being bonded to the inner and outer surfaces of the sleeves to effectively increase the area of interface between the sealing member and the support member so as to inhibit the formation of leakage paths from one side of the terminal to the other due to thermal expansion and contraction of the parts. The invention also contemplates the provision of an improved terminal pin construction to inhibit the formation of leakage paths between the terminal pin and the sealing member, the terminal pin having knurled portions extending outwardly beyond the opposite ends of the sleeve which effectively prevents transmission of torque forces between the outer ends of the pins and the central portion thereof lying between the knurls.

A hermetically sealed terminal construction comprising a support member having a base with at least one annular opening therein and a rounded annular shoulder at said opening, a first cylindrical sleeve in the form of an insert having a cylindrical body and an outwardly projecting annular flange surrounding said cylindrical body fitted in said opening and projecting outwardly from at least one side of said base with said annular flange seated against and welded to said base in the area of said annular shoulder, a second cylindrical sleeve surrounding said first sleeve in spaced relation thereto, said second cylindrical sleeve being integrally formed with said base and affixed at one end to said base in the area surrounding said opening, said sleeves defining an annular recess therebetween, an elongated terminal pin extending centrally through said sleeves, and a molded dielectric sealing member securing said terminal pin to said support member, said sealing member being bonded to said terminal pin and to the opposite surfaces of said base with integral portions thereof filling said first sleeve and said annular recess and bonded to the inner and outer surfaces of said sleeves, whereby to effectively increase the area of interface between said sealing member and said support member to thereby inhibit the formation of leakage paths from one side of the support member to the other due to thermal expansion and contraction of the parts.
