ABSTRACT:
A hand-insertable, hand-removable electrical contact assembly is disclosed, which requires no special mounting tools or additional mounting components. The electrical contact assembly is especially adaptable for use in conjunction with battery charger apparatus, or the like. In one embodiment, a resilient contact arm or element having a reduced midsection is adapted for insertion into an associated slot in the assembly casing. The contact arm is inserted by bending it at the resilient midsection while sliding one end section of the contact arm into the casing slot. When the contact arm is released, the resiliency of the midsection causes the other end section of the contact arm to press against the surface of the casing and thereby lock the contact arm within the casing. The assembled contact element is readily removable by simply reversing the above procedure.
