Abstract
Connector for contacting contact faces of an electrical or electronic component, in particular a rechargeable battery, having a housing, in which is arranged, a resilient contact to be fastened on a connection side to a printed-circuit board, and, a contacting region to contact the contact face where to increase contacting flexibility and reliability, the resilient contact element has, in the contacting region, two convexities which are located at a distance from one another.
Claims7
A connector for contacting a contact face of a battery, comprising an insulating contact-receiving housing with at least one passage, a contact positioned in the passage that has at least one contacting region which serves for contacting the contact face of the battery, at least one connection region which serves for connection to a printed-circuit board, and a spring region having contacting surface and which connects the connection region resiliently to the contacting region, characterized in that the contacting region has at least two convexities that are arranged to run adjacently in a longitudinal direction of the contact along the contacting surface of the spring region with a closed perimeter gap formed therebetween.
