Abstract
A coil type contactor comprising an electrically-conductive coil spring, each turn constituting the coil spring being inclined such that one end of a diameter of each turn occupies a lower position and the other end occupies an upper position. The turns are arranged such that axes passing through the centers of the respective turns are in parallel relation. Upper and lower ends of the coil spring serve as pressure receiving points, respectively, for achieving electrical connections. The turns are arranged such that they are partly short-circuited, or the turns are arranged proximate to each other so that the turns are short-circuited at an initial stage of compression.
