Title:
SPRING CONNECTOR AND DEVICE USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3243201
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a spring connector which has a simple and low-height structure and reliably make an electrical continuity.
SOLUTION: A coil spring 10 made of a conductive material consists of a central part 10a being space-wound and one end part 10b being tightly wound and having a winding diameter thinner than that of the central part 10a, wherein the axes of 10a and 10b are shifted from each other. An abutting member 12 composed of a conductive material is inserted and fixed in the other end part 10c of the coil spring 10, a narrow diametric part 12a is extended and provided from the abutting member 12 to the end part 10b. The coil spring 10 and the abutting member 12 form a spring connector 30. By pressing the spring connector 30, the narrow part 12a of the abutting member 12 is inserted in the end part 10b to cause elastic deformation in a way that the axial deviation is corrected and to contact elastically to the inner periphery of the end part 10b that is tightly wound and has a low resistance like a cylindrical conductive material.
