Spring contact

摘要

The contact (1) has a contact section (4) for contacting with a counter contact. A contact spring section (30) is formed from a contact tongue and arranged between a connection section (2) and the contact section, where width of the tongue is defined by a distance between lower and upper edges of the tongue. The tongue is designed as a helical-shaped Archimedean spiral with pitch and made of sheet metal. A section of spiral shieldings (31a-31c) exhibits width that is larger than the pitch, where a lower edge of one of the shieldings is supported by a supporting element.
