  • Patent number: 12267977
    Abstract: A multi-functional spacer element for spacing at least one printed circuit board from an opposite spacing surface. The spacer element can not only accomplish the spacing of one or more printed circuit boards, but can also support a fastening function to a carrier element and an electrical ground connection. A passageway extends through the main body. The spacer element includes a press-in element. The spacer element 1 includes an electrically conductive material for electrically conducting from at least a first contact surface to the press-in element.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20250030298
    Abstract: A stator arrangement for an electric machine includes a stator comprising a stator core on which a stator winding has been arranged. The arrangement also includes an interconnection module for electrically interconnecting winding wire ends of the stator winding. The interconnection module is positioned on the stator on the end side. The interconnection module comprises integral electrical terminal conductors which are embedded at least partially in a body including an electrically insulating material. The terminal conductors each form a terminal contact to which an external power supply and/or control of the stator arrangement can be connected and a winding contact which is electrically conductively connected to a winding wire end.
