Abstract:
1. An electrical connection device, used for electrically connecting an electronic element with solder balls, comprising: an insulating body, wherein the insulating body has a plurality of receiving slots arranged in columns and rows, and a plurality of first rib boards are formed between adjacent receiving slots along each of the rows and a plurality of second rib boards are formed between adjacent receiving slots along each of the columns, and the first rib boards extend to define a Y-coordinate direction, and the second rib boards extend to define a X-coordinate direction; and a plurality of pins, wherein each of the pins has a base portion located below the first rib board, a first flexible arm and a second flexible arm are extended upwardly from the base portion, and the end of the first flexible arm and the end of the second flexible arm respectively form a first contact portion and a second contact portion which are slanted and opposite to each other, and respectively pressed by one of opposite side and not aligned sides of the solder ball, and, the first contact portion and the second contact portion of each contact enter into slots which have a first receiving slot and the adjacent receiving slot respectively; and wherein each of the receiving slots receives the first flexible arm of one pin and the second flexible arm of adjacent pin, and thus the first contact portion and the second contact portion in the same receiving slot are also misaligned along the X-coordinate direction; wherein when the solder ball contacts with the first contact portion and the second contact portion of the same pin, the solder ball presses the first contact portion and the second contact portion and thus the first contact portion and the second contact portion depart from each other along both the X-coordinate direction and the Y-coordinate direction, and the first contact portion of the one of the pins and the second contact portion of an adjacent pin approach each other along the X-coordinate direction and depart from each other along Y-coordinate direction; wherein the first contact portion and the second contact portion of each contact are respectively higher than the first rib board; and wherein the first rib having an opening for receiving the base portion therein and the first rib is in between the first and second flexible arms.
