Patent ID: 8535095

Claim:
A clip-type elastic contact piece, which is mounted to a mount portion formed at a metal housing of a shielded connector for the connection with a counterpart metal housing of a counterpart shielded connector to be coupled with the shielded connector, the clip-type elastic contact piece comprising: a flat plate having a predetermined length; and an elastic part formed by bending one side of the flat plate in a length direction of the flat plate so as to be elastically deformable, the elastic part comprising: two slits formed in a length direction thereof; a contact elastic part formed between the slits, and elastically pressing the counterpart metal housing of the counterpart shielded connector to provide a secure electric connection between the metal housing and the counterpart metal housing when the shielded connector is coupled with the counterpart shielded connector; and mount elastic parts formed by the slits at both sides of the contact elastic part, respectively, and spaced apart from the flat plate based on the bent portion such that the spaced distance is partially smaller than a thickness of the mount portion, wherein the clip-type elastic contact piece is mounted to the mount portion in a manner that the mount elastic parts and the flat plate press the mount portion toward each other.
