Double leaf spring contact with stop device

Double leaf spring contact with an external enclosure spring, in which

• a) the double leaf spring contact is provided with a generally U-shaped spring arm base (4) with lateral side walls (6), and a frontal side wall (7) and prongs (8) for the connection of an electrically conducting wire are connected to one side of the spring arm base,
• fork spring arms (3) that converge in the shape of a curve are connected to the other side of frontal edges of the lateral side walls,
• the fork spring arms form a contact stud for a counter contact in a culmination area of the curves,
• stop devices (2) that protrude toward the outside and maintain a certain distance between the converging fork spring arms are arranged in the contact area, and
• b) the external enclosure spring (10) is provided with a box-shaped spring arm base (13) that rests on the spring arm base (4) of the double leaf spring contact in a positive and stationary manner, and plural converging enclosure spring fork arms (16) are connected to the lateral side walls (15) of the spring arm base (13) that press against the fork spring arms (3) of the double leaf spring contact from the outside,
• characterized by the fact that:
• c) a cover in form of skids (11) which covers at least the stop devices (2) of the fork spring arms (3) of the double leaf spring contact (1) is disposed on the external enclosure spring (10);
• and
• said skids (11) extend linearly upwardly and plane to the spring arm base (13) and tightly adjoin the stop devices (2),
• so that the elements of the stop devices do not hinder insertion of the double leaf spring contact into a mating plug chamber housing (30).
