Abstract: A fixation device for fixing a contact element within a connector. The device includes a housing defining a contact element receptacle for receiving a contact element and a support face defining a deflection surface for supporting the contact element within the housing, and a clamping device for clamping the contact element in the contact element receptacle with a clamping force directed in a clamping direction. The deflection surface is oriented at an angle relative to the clamping direction such that it deflects a component or portion of the clamping force acting upon the contact element in a direction transverse to the clamping direction.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a wiring system includes providing an electric cable having an electric conductor and a contact element with a termination portion, and removing a cable insulation in a first sub-portion of the electric cable. The cable insulation remains on the electric conductor in a second sub-portion of the electric cable offset from the first sub-portion. The electric conductor is welded at the first sub-portion to a termination surface of the termination portion. The first sub-portion is pressed against the termination portion and compressed during welding. A holding device encompasses the second sub-portion at least partially. The holding device supports the second sub-portion at least during the welding and compressing of the first sub-portion and maintains a position of the second sub-portion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to acoustical panels. As to provide a cabin panel to be made as simple as possible and with optimized acoustical properties, an acoustical cabin panel (10) is provided that comprises a first (12) and a second layer (14) which are spaced apart from each other by an intermediate layer (16) and altogether with a plurality of reinforcement elements (22) form a core composite component (24). Furthermore, the panel comprises at least one intermediate layer (18) made of a core material (20) which is arranged in the intermediate layer. The reinforcement elements extend from the first to the second layer through the at least one intermediate film and are tension and pressure resilient in a finished state of the panel. The reinforcement elements can be at least partially infiltrated with a curable matrix material and at least one prepreg (26) soaked with matrix material is provided in the first and/or second layer.

Abstract: A crimped terminal is provided and includes a conductor, a crimped element, and a plurality of conductive particles: The conductor includes aluminum, and the crimped element is disposed around the conductor. The plurality of conductive particles include a copper alloy and are arranged between the conductor and the crimped element.

Abstract: The embodiment relates to the production of reinforced materials, for example reinforced foam materials or reinforced textiles. A multi-needle machine is provided with a plurality of serially arranged repeating units, which are able to move sliders and pins toward and past each other along a circular path so as to create the semi-finished textile products. In this way, it is possible to reinforce components with curved surfaces.
