ABSTRACT:
A unique dual beam contact (30) for coupling elements on opposite sides of a dividing element (68) preferably comprises a single piece of metal or other conductive material to provide a contact portion on either side of the dividing element (14). Each beam of the dual beam contact can be specifically shaped or formed to provide the preferred contact pressure depending upon the application the dual beam contact. The dual beam contact includes an attachment member (34, 35) to provide easy attachment to an element of the device. Alternatively, the elbow portion (38) between the two beams could be used to attach the dual beam contact to the dividing element. The dual beam contact of the present invention reduces cost, inventory requirements, and complexity in manufacturing.
