Abstract

The present invention relates to a contact for electronic devices. The contact includes an upper contact, a lower contact, which includes a contact portion, a lower contact coupled to the upper contact, and a spring fitted over a predetermined area between the upper contact and lower contact. The lower contact includes a second supporting portion, two elastic parts extending from the second supporting portion and provided with opposite to each other. A channel is defined by the two elastic parts of the lower contact, and provides a space to allow movement of the contact portion of the upper contact therein, when the upper contact is coupled to the lower contact. When the upper contact is coupled to the lower contact, the contact portion of the upper contact is insert into the channel defined by the two elastic parts of the lower contact. Thereby, the contact portion is in close contact with the retaining portion, and so an efficient and a short transmitted between two contacts is established.
