Spring loaded diode contact apparatus

摘要

An apparatus is disclosed for establishing a reliable electrical connection with a diode. Contact with the diode is made by a conductor element which is generally cylindrical but also has a flared, conical portion. A biasing disc is provided which has a hole in the center and slits extending from the hole to form resilient leaf projections. The conductor element is assembled extending through the hole in the biasing disc, with the leaf projections deflected by the flared portion so as to resiliently press the conductor element against the diode.
