    Patent number: 6186797
    Abstract: A contact comprises a central torsion beam, two side plates integrally connected to two ends of the central torsion beam and each side plate is perpendicular to the torsion beam. Two curved spring arms extend oppositely from a center portion of the torsion beam so that when the side plates are fixed in position and the curved spring arms are exerted opposite forces by two contact pads sandwiching the contact, the torsion beam will be twisted for a predetermined angle to transmit reactive forces to the curved spring arms to abut against the contact pads.
