Elastic electrical contact device and contact conductor thereof
An elastic electrical contact device and a contact conductor are introduced. The elastic electrical contact device includes two contact conductors. Each contact conductor includes a head and an electrical contact portion integrally connected with each other. The electrical contact portion has a cross section shaped as a curved bend and has a guide groove formed thereon. The electrical contact portion is bilaterally symmetrical along a second central axis, wherein a first central axis and the second central axis are parallel to each other and non-coaxial. The electrical contact portions of the two contact conductors are disposed to have openings thereof face each other and are mutually connected in respective guide grooves, are mutually slidable to extend and retract relative to each other, and are sleeved by an elastic reset member to enable the two contact conductors to be elastically reset when extending and retracting relative to each other.
1. An elastic electrical contact device, comprising:
two contact conductors, integrally formed by means of stamping and identically structured, each of the contact conductors including:
a head, having a first front end and a first back end, the head being bilaterally symmetrical along a first central axis; and
an electrical contact portion, having a second front end and a second back end, the second front end and the first back end being integrally connected, the electrical contact portion having a cross section shaped as a curved bend and having a guide groove formed thereon, one side of the electrical contact portion having an opening provided along a lengthwise direction of the guide groove, the electrical contact portion being bilaterally symmetrical along a second central axis, the first central axis and the second central axis parallel to each other and non-coaxial, and the electrical contact portions of the two contact conductors disposed to have the openings face each other, being mutually connected in the respective guide grooves, and being mutually slidable to extend and retract relative to each other; and
an elastic reset member, sleeving on the two contact conductors to at least cover the two electrical contact portions connected to each other, for the two contact conductors to elastic reset when extending and retracting relative to each other,
wherein each of the contact conductors comprises a middle portion, the middle portion is integrally connected between the first back end and the second front end, the head and the middle portion are bilaterally symmetrical along the first central axis, and the middle portion has a block portion projecting radially toward two sides relative to the first central axis, so as to block at two ends of the elastic reset member sleeving on the two contact conductors.
2. The elastic electrical contact device according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical contact portion has a cross section that is U-shaped or C-shaped.
3. The elastic electrical contact device according to claim 2 , wherein a width of the electrical contact portion from the second front end to the second back end is constant.
4. The elastic electrical contact device according to claim 3 , wherein the opening has an equal-width portion and a dilated portion, the equal-width portion extends from the second front end to the second back end, the dilated portion is in communication with the equal-width portion at the second back end, and the dilated portion gradually dilates toward the second back end.
5. The elastic electrical contact device according to claim 1 , wherein the middle portion is connected on a same side as the head and the electrical contact portion, and the second front end of the electrical contact portion is connected to the middle portion on one side opposite to the opening.
6. The elastic electrical contact device according to claim 1 , wherein when the two electrical contact portions of the two contact conductors are connected to each other, the two first central axes are coaxial, and the two second central axes are located on two opposite sides of the first central axis and are equidistant therefrom.
