SPRING POWER CONTACT HAVING NON-LINEAR SLOT

摘要

A power supply apparatus receives a voltage from power rails on a circuit board. The power supply apparatus comprises a frame and arms connected to the frame. Each of the arms comprises a contact end. The frame positions the contact end of each of the arms to contact the power rails of the circuit board. The contact end is biased towards the power rails to maintain the contact end in contact with the power rails. The contact end comprises a curved planar surface having a first edge and a second edge that terminates at an end edge. The first edge and the second edge follow a curved line, while the end edge follows a straight line. The contact end comprises a non-linear slot extending from the end edge along the curved planar surface and is positioned equally between the first edge and the second edge.
