Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9515596A1] An electrical connector (20) has a first connecting end (21) and a second connecting end (22) with the first connecting end (21) being electrically conductively slidable with respect to the second connecting end (22). The connecting end (22) has an electrically conductive pin (28) protruding therefrom and the connecting end (21) has a socket (23) defined by an electrically conductive cylinder (24). The cylinder (24) has a circumferential groove (26), located on an inner surface of the cylinder (24), adapted to retain a spring element (27). The spring element (27) permits an electrically conductive sliding friction connection with the exterior of the pin (28).
