Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0105044A1] The contact pin is characterized in that the three resilient legs are symmetrically displaced upon insertion of the pin (10) in hole (15) of a printed circuit in such a manner that the outer legs (19,21) are bended towards one another so as to obtain a V-shaped configuration while the inner leg (20) acts like a wedge and is clinged between the two outer legs.
