Abstract

Various embodiments are provided herein for a connector that can provide electrical and mechanical coupling between first and second objects. The connector generally comprises at least one connecting element that has at least one first and second contact portion, at least one guidance portion located towards the end of the at least one connecting element and adjacent to one of the at least one first and second contact portions; and a biasing portion that is adjacent to the at least one first and second contact portions. The biasing portion is configured to provide an electrical connection between the at least one first and second contact portions and to resiliently move the at least one connecting element from a first position to a second position to provide a mechanical coupling force to the first and second objects.
