Electrical connector having contact with pre-pressing structure

摘要

An electrical connector ( 1 ) includes an insulative housing ( 10 ) defining a receiving space ( 111 ) and a passageway ( 120 ) communicating with the receiving space, and an electrical contact ( 21 ) received in the passageway of the insulative housing. The electrical contact includes a body portion ( 210 ), a resilient arm ( 211 ) having a contact portion ( 212 ) projecting into the receiving space of the insulative housing and an extension ( 213 ) extending from the contact portion, and a tab ( 215 ) extending from the body portion and having a pressing portion ( 216 ) pressing the extension of the resilient arm to deflect the resilient arm toward the body portion.
