Abstract (en)

[origin: US4932891A] A dual flat-spring electrical contact includes a contact receptacle which contains a separation gap and on which spring prongs protrude on one side while the cable connector protrudes on the other side. The contact receptacle is rigidly locked against expansion, as in the area of the separating gap, during insertion of a contact pin between the prongs because on a receptacle wall, in the area of the separating gap, there protrudes a T-shaped cover plate for which there is provided a holding recess which adjoins an adjacent contact receptacle wall.
