  • Patent number: 8858272
    Abstract: The invention relates to a high current contact having a contact pin, which has at least one contact opening, and a contact terminal, which has at least one contact limb, wherein the at least one contact limb of the contact terminal is connected to a corresponding contact opening of the contact pin on at least one joint region to produce an electrical contact and to receive mechanical forces, and to a corresponding method for producing said high current contact. According to the invention, producing the electrical contact between the contact pin and the contact terminal is largely separate from the receiving of mechanical forces, wherein the electrical contact between the contact pin and the contact terminal is produced by a first connection type and the mechanical forces are received by a second connection type.

  • Publication number: 20130035005
    Abstract: The invention relates to a high current contact (1) having a contact pin (10), which has at least one contact opening (15), and a contact terminal (20), which has at least one contact limb (24), wherein the at least one contact limb (24) of the contact terminal (20) is connected to a corresponding contact opening (15) of the contact pin (10) on at least one joint region (14) to produce an electrical contact and to receive mechanical forces, and to a corresponding method for producing said high current contact. According to the invention, producing the electrical contact between the contact pin (10) and the contact terminal (20) is largely separate from the receiving of mechanical forces, wherein the electrical contact between the contact pin (10) and the contact terminal (20) is produced by a first connection type (7) and the mechanical forces are received by a second connection type (5).

  • Patent number: 7946878
    Abstract: The invention relates to an insulation displacement connection and to a method for connecting two components, especially for high current applications, said connection comprising a first insulation displacement element, which is fixed to a first component, and a second insulation displacement element, which is fixed to a second component. The two insulation displacement elements can be inserted into each other in the direction of assembly, the first and/or second insulation displacement element being fixed to the first and/or second component in such a way that the insulation displacement element is moveably arranged in a plane transversal to the direction of assembly.
