ABSTRACT:
A contact element used in an electrical connector for connecting a daughter printed circuit board on a mother board includes two spring contact portions oppositely spaced apart and respectively resiliently integrally secured to a base portion embedded in a bottom portion of a connector base socket and several boundary lines cut on the contact portions, in which upon an insertion of the daughter board the two spring contact portions will resiliently clamp the inserted daughter board and any internal stress caused will be counterbalanced or released by the two spring contact portions by slightly separating any relevant cooperating parts at the boundary lines so as to efficiently insert the daughter board for a sound electrical connection and to prevent any overstress or permanent set of relevant contact elements.
