ABSTRACT:
A resilient platelike spring contact member is disclosed of the type which is mounted on a circuit board in covering relationship to a first conductor and in electrical contact with a second conductor so that the platelike member can be flexed into engagement with the first conductor to establish a circuit path to the second conductor. The platelike member has a pair of legs extending therefrom which extend into holes in the circuit board and each leg has a laterally extending spring contact portion which bears against a second conductor on the circuit board. The legs are shaped such that when the contact member is assembled to the board, the legs are deformed and the contact member is secured on the board without solder or other bonding material.
