Abstract: The conductor claw includes a bent bottom section and claw arms outwardly adjoining the bent bottom section at the two sides thereof. The claw arms are bent towards the longitudinal axis of the conductor claw. The end sections of the claw arms are curved. Each claw arm includes intermediate the curved bottom section of the conductor claw and the curved end section of the respective claw arm a straight section which merges tangentially into the respective curved end section. Each claw arm has at the bend therein an inner knee and an outer knee, and each curved end section of the claw arms has an inner curve and an outer curve. The centers of the inner and outer curves of each curved end section are located on a first line spaced from each other a distance corresponding to the thickness of the material of the conductor claw. The first line extends parallel to a second line which passes through both the inner and the outer knee of the respective claw arm.

Abstract: A one-piece double spring contact has a base portion formed as a substantially tubular flattened element with a mutually parallel upper and lower wall portion and rounded sidewalls. Spring arms extend from the upper and lower walls and a claw portion extends from the lower wall at the end opposite the spring arms. The spring arms and the claw portion are offset in outward direction and a retaining spring arm is formed out of the material of the lower wall portion.
