Summary:A contact spring having a free contact end for producing an electrical contact between the free contact end and a contact surface, the contact spring formed from N contact spring metal sheets and N−1 spacer elements. The contact spring metal sheets are fixed in a clamping region with a spacer element between two adjacent contact spring metal sheets, are at a distance from each other in a spring region around the thickness of the spacer elements, extend parallel to each other up to the free contact end in a freely elastic manner, and end in a common plane on the free contact end. In the spring region, the contact spring metal sheets have at least one bend with a pre-determined angle between the longitudinal axis of the contact spring metal sheets before the bend and the longitudinal axis of the contact spring metal sheets after the bend.
