resilient body 36 if a force applied on the resilient member 30 is sufficiently great the resilient body 36 even becomes a substantial flat shape from the conical shape that is the resilient body 36 is flattened on a planar surface not shown if a height of the resilient member 30 at rest equals to that of a cylindrical spring not shown at rest the resilient member 30 may be compressed to a shorter height than the cylindrical spring therefore the compressible height of the resilient member 30 is greater than that of the cylindrical spring when their heights at rest are equal in other words the resilient member 30 is more compactable than the cylindrical spring referring also to fig3 and 4 an electronic apparatus 40 employing the conductive contact 10 is illustrated the electronic apparatus 40 includes a housing 42 and a grounding plate 44 the housing 42 includes an upper plate 422 and at least one wall 424 substantially perpendicularly extending from the upper plate 422 a through hole 426 is defined in the upper plate 422 for the contacting portion 22 of the contacting member 20 to protrude therethrough the grounding plate 44 attaches to the wall 424 and is opposite to the upper plate 422 a chamber 428 is defined by the upper plate 422 the wall 424 and the grounding plate 44 for accommodating the resilient member 30 therein when the conductive contact 10 is assembled into the electronic apparatus 40 the contacting portion 22 of the contacting member 20.
